•  Oppose It's too hidden away for me. Doesn't compare favourably with photographer's current work. Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:01, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
•  Neutral I guess it was very good 14 years ago... -- Ivar (talk) 14:55, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
•  Support I still like the photo.--Famberhorst (talk) 16:07, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Charles. I like the photo too and yet think it’s not one of our very very best. --Kreuzschnabel 19:13, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
•  Support Thanks for the nom.--Ermell (talk) 20:10, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
•  Support I'm a little surprised by the degree of opposition. The composition is beautiful, the beetle is clearly quite small, and I think that in context, this level of detail is good enough for a feature. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:39, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
•  Weak support Though legs are slightly out of focus, I think this is still a very good image, per Ikan. Urban Versis 32^KB ⚡ ^{(talk | contribs)} 22:16, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
•  Question How a 35mm and a Old camera can reproduce this macro image? --Wilfredor (talk) 01:25, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
  •  Info The 35mm FT is a very good macro lens. I post-processed the image with Topaz, the original is quite noisy compared to what we are used to today.--Ermell (talk) 19:31, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

 Support Was used some extension pipe? on any case, the result is amazing --Wilfredor (talk) 14:23, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

•  Info No. The beetle is relatively big.--Ermell (talk) 19:29, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

•  Support per Ikan. --Aristeas (talk) 08:27, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
