Support as nominator --Fir0002 03:29, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
~~Weak oppose~~ Support while sharpness is somewhat there, the ID is too broad and should be narrowed to at least the genus. The face, which is an important factor of an insect, is obscured, but I can't blame you, they are obviously pollinators. Bug or insect? = EV. Zoo Fari 01:29, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, I only provided the common name "Yellow Flower Wasp" - added better ID info --Fir0002 04:06, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - Oh, I see. There is no genus page for that ID. I'll create one right now... Zoo Fari 04:53, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Obscured head reminds me of this --Muhammad(talk) 19:48, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Hmm personally I find them quite different because here a composition choice meant that part of the head was obscured whereas in your example it appears the head is OOF as a result of photographer error. At any rate I've got an alt with more of the head visible --Fir0002 23:46, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Is the alternative the same species? They look totally different. Zoo Fari 00:43, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure if they're the same species (although they could be as I'm sure there is natural variation between specimens) but they are in the same genus --Fir0002 09:25, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support - For the original, very illustrative, excellent detail, color balance and resolution. - Damërung ^{...ÏìíÏ...}_{__Ξ_} . -- 02:23, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The second one has shallow DOF. - Damërung ^{...ÏìíÏ...}_{__Ξ_} . -- 16:39, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support both, high EV.--Caspian blue 05:44, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support either with preference for alternative given the head is not as obscured. Good macro - DOF and detail is good. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 09:21, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support alternative, neutral original --Muhammad(talk) 18:47, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Supprt Alt1 - the two bugs look quite distinct from one another; are we sure of the ID? Matt Deres (talk) 16:32, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support Alt only, the original has the head obscured and dodgy white balance. Noodle snacks (talk) 07:10, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
