•  Oppose the harsh flash-lighting is not very attractive and DOF is a bit too shallow. --Dschwen (talk) 21:42, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

 Comment Yes, I was concerned about the flash. I believe this photo was taken at night, which is when moths tend to come out. — Erin (talk) 21:50, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Sure, but even at night an umbrella or a diffuser can be used. --Dschwen (talk) 22:22, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

•  Support rare shot -- George Chernilevsky ^talk 22:45, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Nice. --Karel (talk) 23:31, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Despite slight DOF issues this is gorgeous. Are we seeing individual scales? Durova (talk) 05:02, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose Shallow DOF, harsh light. —kallerna™ 12:57, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
•  Support, good use of a shallow DOF. --Aqwis (talk) 15:56, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Lighting is unfortunate but it's hard to insist on having an umbrella/diffuser when you see an amazing moth. Shallow DOF is appropriate for subject. --99of9 (talk) 09:31, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Really interesting. I learned some things with this picture. Ceridwen (talk) 19:20, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
