Info A drone-fly (Eristalis tenax) collecting nectar from a Lantana camara flower. I have taken hundreds of shots of this fascinating hoverfly (including today) and I believe this one is among the best both aesthetically and technically.

Neutral Quality is ok. I like the colours very much and the background fits. But I dont like the "nearly from behind the fly" perspective. And the light could be a bit more diffuse --Simonizer 16:05, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Quality wise it's good, but at this point it's not anything special. Dori - Talk 17:41, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Composition.... perhaps rotating it so that the fly points in an upward diagonal. --Tomascastelazo 21:45, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose average, sorry --Beyond silence 12:14, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose A year ago maybe, but it's not exceptional enough with today's standards. It needs to be like this recent FP. -- Ram-Man 04:10, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I think this one has the same quality (maybe a bit better) than the recent one, but i dont like both because they are harsh flashlight pictures which looks strange/flat --Richard Bartz 18:03, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

result: 3 support, 5 oppose, 1 neutral => not featured. Lycaon 22:46, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
