Info White-spotted rose beetle, all by Ivar (talk) 04:42, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
Support -- Ivar (talk) 04:42, 6 September 2016 (UTC)- Support - I looked at the 4 current QIs of this type of beetle, but rather than deciding whether to support this picture based on a comparison with those, I'll just go with my first impulse, which is that I love the beetle, even though ideally, I'd rather see a bit more of the flower, too. It gets less and less clear from thumbnail to full-page to full size. Of course, that was purely intentional on your part. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:17, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

- Support Lovely colors! 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 09:08, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
Oppose DOF too small. The head is out of focus. --Hockei (talk) 10:26, 6 September 2016 (UTC)- Support nice colors, sharp image--Gronk (talk) 10:35, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose per Hockei. So much about this has been done right, but the bar here for this kind of image has been set pretty high. Daniel Case (talk) 14:44, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose Sorry Ivar, I wouldn't promote this as QI. Nowhere near sharp enough. Charles (talk) 15:13, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
Comment I really don't get it. This is a field shot of a moving beetle and something like 80-90% of him is crisp sharp, including the eye. You can have 100% sharpness only in studio with dead specimen. --Ivar (talk) 16:04, 6 September 2016 (UTC)- Support INeverCry 21:26, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose Per opposers, sorry. Under our "bug bar".--Jebulon (talk) 22:44, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
- Comment A good photo indeed; well document its behavior. The partially hidden dorsal view and the position of right antenna are some drawback. Jee 13:44, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- Support Super picture! --Vamps (talk) 18:22, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
