•  Support My god!, amazing capture, Je suis très heureux!! --The Photographer (talk) 14:26, 31 August 2016 (UTC)

• Thanks The Photographer. Yes; it is not something we are going to see everyday. I was in search for the rare damselflies in forest streams, after the rain. Stumbled by seeing this rare moment! He didn't care me much as he was busy collecting the minerals for the nuptial gift. :) Jee 16:10, 31 August 2016 (UTC)

• I was a little surprised the article about the nuptial gift did not include the chocolate and flowers male humans use to seduce us females with. Encyclopedic error... --w.carter-Talk 20:21, 31 August 2016 (UTC)

Je ne peux pas imaginer combien d'heures vous avez passéz là à essayer de prendre cette photo. Il est tout simplement magistrale dans la qualité et la netteté, peut-être juste un peu sous-exposée. --The Photographer (talk) 21:20, 31 August 2016 (UTC)

Both of us are inside the narrow forest stream, covered by foliage. So little lights there. I'm still learning the correct flash settings. Jee 03:19, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

•  Support One of the best butterfly pictures we've had here in a long time. I love the background, too ... at first I wondered why the insect was so interested in this bean dip. Daniel Case (talk) 17:34, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
