•  Oppose -- While I understand why it became a FPP on the en:wiki, I don't like the composition and the tight crop. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 12:33, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
  • What is wrong with the composition? The crop is not so tight, there was nothing else to show and this way, the viewer's attentions is focused to the fly --Muhammad 18:10, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
    • For me it looks like an illustration in a taxo box. Boring. Look at the flies of Richard, where the aesthetical component is usually the most relevant one, to understand what I mean. The good news are that you don't need more powerfull lenses to achieve that. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 09:02, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
