 * Regretful oppose High enc does not outweigh a cut-off subject that's not as sharp as we're used to.--HereToHelp (talk to me) 20:19, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Regretful oppose similar to HereToHelp's opinion, but it looks more like a too-shallow depth of field. Might be ok with focus on the insect's head, but it's on the creature's thorax.  Can't quite understand why.  Also cut-off leg.  Sadly opposing despite high EV and good contrast otherwise.  Durova Charge! 21:47, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose per above, The author would have gotten much more in focus if he was side on to the bug. I'd nominate it at WP:VPC though. Noodle snacks (talk) 01:41, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
