•  InfoThis time the focus is more on the body/head, a picture where you can see my improvement since this FP which i done in August. When does we have a chance to have a eye to eye with a butterfly ?  :-)
•  Support Interesting close up, nice colors and no use of flashlight which gives a great plasticity--Richard Bartz 17:12, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Support a great series. What kicks me most is the atmosphere of those pics..most likely bcs of the colours. They somehow stand out from the crowd of macro shots. Congrats! --AngMoKio 17:26, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Now that's a special one! Seems that with every new picture you are getting closer and closer to the animals. :-)) Chmehl 17:46, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

•  Neutral Although beautifully composed, the wings are cut off and the depth of field is a bit too shallow. As photography, wonderful. The encyclopedic value is suboptimal because this image has limited value for identification purposes. Durova 20:53, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

  Read through the FPC rules, find a reference to encyclopedic quality and maybe I will accept your point. :) This is Commons, not Wikipedia. A different world. Freedom to share 21:56, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

  Okay, I want the whole bug. No worries; I'm sure it'll pass anyway. ;) Durova 13:30, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

•  Support No question about it, this is of FP quality. By the way, we are not judging images here on encyclopedic value. That's a Wikipedia rules, and does not apply here--MichaelMaggs 21:36, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Support There needs to be no election for POTY '08, for a winner has already been found. Freedom to share 21:57, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

•  Support although it's a bit of a pity the exact species is not identified Tbc 16:56, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  • I wonder if it could be more identified because of the free crossings in such greenhouses. --B.navez 16:16, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
