Oppose -- Harsh lighting, poor background -- Alvesgaspar 22:33, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
Neutral- Support I think the artistry is solid... It wouldn't be my first choice to illustrate an article on the subject, but it has high "wow factor" in my mind. – flamurai 04:22, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Sorry, looses all wow because of the unnatural background. Lycaon 05:25, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Sorry, I don't like the background either. --MichaelMaggs 06:21, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
Comment funny, 1 year ago, we had the same species in a similar space before --Richard Bartz 11:31, 30 May 2008 (UTC)- Support ...and this candidate is better than the featured picture. Of course, Richard has the better equipment, so his picture is technically better as far as it is sharp. But this candidate, otherwise than the featured one, shows the bee from a good angle in a natural position with good sharpness almost overall. Light is not perfect, but not so bad. The bee sits on a wooden bee hive. I like the wood, the color fits well to the bee. I like the blurred background. Only the dark part of the background is not so good, though its a natural environment as you often see such dark parts at the entrance of a bee hive. --wau > 14:27, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose last year, maybe --Richard Bartz 15:08, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Support Is background a beehive frame? If so, this is a good background for a domesticated species. --B.navez 18:36, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose per above diego_pmc 21:41, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
