•  Info Male hoverfly on flower (Eristalinus taeniops). Porto Covo, Portugal. Notice the red ocelli and the holoptic eyes, characteristic of male shirphid flies. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:27, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
•  Support -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:27, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

•  Support --Kadellar (talk) 17:34, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose Unless I'm mistaken, isn't the main subject (the hoverfly) supposed to be identified for a featured picture? -- Ram-Man 18:26, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

• Eristalinus taeniops is the hoverfly. --Kadellar (talk) 19:48, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

•  Support Haha, how did I miss that? Alright, the flower is unidentified. I can live with that. -- Ram-Man 20:12, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

•  Support Great sharpness --Arturo de Frias Marques (talk) 07:20, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

Alternative, not featured

•  Info Alternative version with the whole flower, special for @Livioandronico2013: ! I prefer the first because the flower is too unfocused and somehow overexposed on the right. Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:47, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
•  Support I prefer this,the subject is very very clear,the rest isn't important fo me is the subject is good,but i don't like when background (in this case the flower) is cut. Very Nice.Good job. --LivioAndronico talk 16:12, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
•  Support both versions --Uoaei1 (talk) 18:01, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose I dislike the overexposure. The yellows should look like this. I'd also like the genus or species of the flower, since it is more prominent. -- Ram-Man 18:23, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
