•  Comment 1. I've no idea ho we handle sets. May I miss any recent discussions? 2. I like the dorsal view. Wing details are wonderful. But anal appendage is a key in identifying odonata. Here it is fully OOF. It seems you keep the camera perpenticular to the branch; not to the subject. 3. Ventral view of a dragonfly is very tough. Here wings pointing to the camera obstruct most of the body parts. 4. I'm making a fair review for improving your composition. Good efforts; indeed. Jee 03:35, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

• I'm agree with Jee for the point 1 and 2 --LivioAndronico ^(talk) 07:14, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

1. @Jee: @Livio: I had not been here (FPC) for a while till came back, so I don't know what happened to the set nomination. What is the matter with set? --Laitche (talk) 07:49, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

2. I tried my camera perpendicular to the subject but I couldn't because I was standing on the bridge with no fence witch width is about one meter hence I could not move back and forward, and I don't like falling in a pond...

3. I wanted to nominate exactly the same pose as a set therefore the wings are unavoidable.

4. Thank you :) --Laitche (talk) 07:49, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

• 1. As far as I know we didn't arrive in a solution, so far. Until it is solved, it is difficult to handle promoted files. 2. It is better have a less aligned picture than you loss the camera in that beautiful water. ;) 3. Lifter or lower the camera to make an angle 30-60 degree so that you can avoid wings pointing to the lens. :) Jee 08:14, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

1. Ok, I got it. Then what shloud I do, withdraw?

3. The subject was located same level height as a bridge so I was taking this photo lying on the bridge, means impossible to lower the angle 30-60 degrees unless in the water shot... --Laitche (talk) 08:35, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

• You can wait for a few more opinion. I saw another nom by Diliff too, below. I think it (set) is not very useful unless we have a mechanism to handle it. Jee 08:54, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

• Thanks, I will wait for few more opinions. --Laitche (talk) 09:07, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

• For the set issue, the BOT will not close correctly this as he will think that there is several alternatives. It must be closed manualy and every images tagged manualy too. Thus both images of this nomination will be promoted individually manualy (if successful) as if they have been nominated separatly. -- Christian Ferrer 09:30, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
  • @Christian: Yes, I did so :) --Laitche (talk) 09:38, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
    • But I didn't see necessary fp categories for individual images there. Further I didn't see any new discussion overruling that early discussion concluded as "individual images in sets are not equivalent as individual fps". Then how can we add 20+ images in a set to a fp gallery and category? We discussed several options; but I didn't see a conclusion so far. Jee 09:55, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
    • Hmm; I found the discussion; but didn't see any solution there. There is a talking about "key image". May be King of Hearts can comment. Jee 10:08, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
• I would withdraw if I were you and expect the end of the discussion, however, for the first photo I would have supported--LivioAndronico ^(talk) 17:39, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
• I fully agree with Livio. --Code (talk) 17:41, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Comment @Livio: @Code: Yes, I am going to withdraw. Now waiting for few more opinions. Ok, I'll think about the first photo as single nomination, thanks. --Laitche (talk) 18:04, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
•  I withdraw my nomination --Laitche (talk) 20:20, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
