Question:Is this one a male or female?--Gauravjuvekar (talk) 13:05, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Male ("On the underside, the forewings are similar but the black edging to the veins much broader, the upper two interspaces beyond the postdiscal transverse band tinged with yellow"). The underside is much similar; but the upperside is different. Jkadavoor (talk) 06:18, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Good shot. Clegs (^{engage in rational discourse}) 13:23, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Gender needed, and is that jpg artefacting over the wings? Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:26, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think they are wing scales. "The white colour in the butterfly family Pieridae is a derivative of uric acid, an excretory product. Bright blues, greens, reds and iridescence are usually created not by pigments but through the microstructure of the scales. This structural coloration is the result of coherent scattering of light by the photonic crystal nature of the scales." Further, they have warning colors.

Comment White balance is too blue in the foreground and on the subject. JJ Harrison (talk) 05:39, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Is the edit is OK or I misunderstand your words? Jkadavoor (talk) 06:42, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think you might have uploaded the wrong thing with the edit - it seems identical to the original. JJ Harrison (talk) 11:38, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm; it seems I don't know what to do; could anybody can help me on this? Jkadavoor (talk) 15:13, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support I quite like the edit. Saffron Blaze (talk) 07:55, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I just noticed on this computer the orig and edit do look the same but at work they were quite different. Saffron Blaze (talk) 08:41, 21 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Gauravjuvekar is away on vacation until 15 May 2012. Jkadavoor (talk) 06:29, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Prefer Original but very slightly.:After positioning the images in different tabs and flicking between them, the leaf colour actually feels natural in the original image but the red spots on the butterfly feel natural in the edit as compared to the yellow spots. The shadow of the butterfly on the leaf looks unnaturally bright in the edit so I prefer the original. Having said that, the red spots may also look natural in the original, just not feel that way.--Gauravjuvekar (talk) 14:48, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
