•  Support, I approve. --Aqwis (talk) 17:10, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose - Sorry but I don't like it. The quality and composition are far from excellent and are not mitigated by the originality of the situation. A child looking at a butterfly in his little hand would be much better. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 17:41, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

I didn't have a child handy ;-). --Tony Wills (talk) 00:26, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

•  Support Great image! But really, Tony, please do have a child handy next time. :)--Mbz1 (talk) 18:00, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

I think the "child holding butterfly" idea is a bit of a cliché, and unworthy of FP :-). But as the main objection to this image is one of composition, I might see if I can come up with a more pleasing alternative. --Tony Wills (talk) 19:47, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

 I withdraw my nomination I'm trying to find a more pleasing crop, so have withdrawn this, please comment on/suggest alternatives on Commons:Photography_critiques#April :-) --Tony Wills (talk) 04:10, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
