Neutral - The detail and sharpness are excellent. But the composition is spoiled by the flowers at left. I wouldn't be shocked if they were cloned out - Alvesgaspar 18:58, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean clone out. You mean not real. Those flowers are real, of course :) --Laitche 19:10, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A clone is a method used in Photoshop where existing background information is used to remove redundant objects. :) Freedom to share 20:29, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support I like the details visible on the butterfly, but I wouldn't be shocked with the removal of the left flowers neither :). Lycaon 19:29, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Clone out means removal. I got it. Thank you Lycaon. I prefer with the left flowers to without then I intentionally left those flowers :) --Laitche 19:48, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, removing the left flower would be a great improvement --Richard Bartz 21:42, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support Woaw. I would have nominated it if you hadn't. Wonder how you guys catch butterflies that well, they never stand in place when I get close to them. Do I smell that bad ? Benh 20:40, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's a compliment. Thank you. --Laitche 21:11, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If you want to sneak up on butterflies you gotta move slowly and watch where your shadow goes. They normally spot your shadow before they see you. If you don't mind looking ridiculous you can use the praying mantis' trick and sway back and forth while you move closer, I've gotten close enough to touch them with my hand this way.

Thanks a lot for explaining !! I'll give it a try as soon as I can :) Benh 09:28, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Info I uploaded the alternative version (without the left flowers). Which one is better ? --Laitche 04:29, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support I like the background and flowers in this one best. --JaGa 07:00, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Info Removed the left flowers version. --Laitche 04:29, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The composition is unbalanced now. Better remove the flowers (keeping the one at bottom) - Alvesgaspar 07:35, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Clone out is not crop out. I didn't know that. Now I got it. I will try to clone out :) --Laitche 21:08, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Info I cloned out the left flowers and uploaded new alternative version. --Laitche 08:48, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Very good now - Alvesgaspar 09:01, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I think encyclopedically this one is better :) --Laitche 16:32, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not featured because the other version got more support and this one not enough votes anyway. -- Cecil 03:46, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
