 * Weak Support good colours and EV. Focus seems a bit off and background seems artifactual. --Muhammad (talk) 22:06, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I've uploaded an alternative. I think it has better focus and a more natural background (to address your concerns). Kaldari (talk) 23:22, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I prefer the composition of the original. --Muhammad (talk) 16:11, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak support either focus v. background? A tossup.  Durova  273 15:02, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Support Original only, it is sharper, though still a tad soft for no apparent reason. This and the one below are very colourful. Took a while for the new thumb to be visible to me, hence the delay. Noodle snacks (talk) 08:57, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

 * I started over from scratch and did a focus stack. The wings should be much sharper now. Kaldari (talk) 23:26, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Which one did you stack? Don't forget to align the frames (two pass is probably best) with combineZP, you get soft results/haloing if you don't prior to stacking. Noodle snacks (talk) 13:58, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I focus stacked the original. You can see the biggest difference at the end of the wings. You can see a difference just by looking at the two thumbnails at right. Kaldari (talk) 18:36, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
