  •  Oppose It seems like some background noise reduction was not done carefully but I'm not sure (some blurry halos visible, e.g. antennas and top of wings). Or maybe it's just the shallow DOF. I could support a version without all that blur, if possible: the image has good quality. --Paolo Costa (talk) 18:58, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's the second wing and the second antenna right behind the foreground wing/antenna. They just peek slightly behind the foreground, but were further away and thats why are blurred. The background wasn't blurred artificially. --LC-de (talk) 23:38, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose - foreground blur is distracting, otherwise a very nice picture. --Claritas (talk) 15:25, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment - I don't know whether lifting the camera to avoid that foreground object will help with a bigger F Number. The other view is also nice. Jkadavoor (talk) 06:46, 7 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
