•  Info Caterpillar of a Acharia sp. on a leaf, Mata das Flores State Park, Brazil. The park is in the municipality of Castelo, Espírito Santo, with an area of about 800 hectares (2,000 acres). Created and uploaded by Joaquim Santos Gasparini - nominated by ★ -- ★ 20:35, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

•  Support Not that sharp at pixel level, but then again, it's 48 megapixels, which is very impressive. Shouldn't penalise the author for uploading a full size jpeg. I think the highlights could have been handled a little better but the composition and subject is FP to me Cmao20 (talk) 21:45, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose I resized to 3000px and it's not that sharp (F16?), but the real issue is that a dorsal view does not show off a caterpillar very well. When I first looked at the photo I didn't know what it was. This sort of caterpillar would not be on a hanging leaf this this. When you move a caterpillar, it is best to try and position it in a realistic position. Charlesjsharp (talk) 22:10, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

•  Neutral I didn't know that the caterpillar had been moved into this position, I thought it was just a lucky capture. I defer to Charles's experience on this issue. Cmao20 (talk) 22:24, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

•  Question Could you explain what are these small bugs? Parasites? Yann (talk) 11:07, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

  I guess so. ★ 11:30, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

  Probably not parasites. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:00, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
