~~Weak oppose, for now~~ Support edit 2 The streaks above the wing bother me. At first, I had thought it was the other wing out of focus, but it appears to be the background. It could probably be removed with editing software (I'm able to do that, so you can let me know if you want me to fix it). Also, is it missing a front leg? I prefer one in good condition.

- Since I had the original, I cloned out the streaks and have uploaded an edit. I count six legs, so I think this is perfect condition. --Muhammad(talk) 06:50, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - It does appear to be missing the bottom segment of the front right leg. --jjron (talk) 14:05, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    - I hadn't seen that. However, does it make much of a difference? --Muhammad(talk) 15:07, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      - Perhaps you can use the clone tool to extend the leg to make it seem as if the rest of the leg is behind the stem. Though it would make it a foul edit, it would not be a big deal, as it is only for a small detail of portion. Zoo Fari 02:37, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I would like to have feedback from others as well please :-) --Muhammad(talk) 07:22, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support Edit 2: I'm not overly keen on a section of leg having been cloned in, but it does look perfectly natural and probably suits our encyclopaedic aims. Good focus. Maedin\^talk 18:57, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The quality of the Nikon is letting you down here - I think you'll have to wait till you get one with your 150mm as the current macro bar is above this IMO --Fir0002 09:43, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
~~Weak oppose~~ While you took care of the streaks above the wing, I'm not satisfied with the streak right below the bottom of the image. Spencer^{T♦Nominate!} 20:48, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Edit 3 Uploaded. Cloned out the streak you mentioned --Muhammad(talk) 06:10, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
