Support --Calibas 09:53, 18 November 2007 (UTC)- Support First support ! I like the composition. I find the colours a taaad washed out (hope this is the right english term). Benh 10:35, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support - Nice composition and beautiful colours, good enough detail and sharpness. Welcome to the club :-)) -- Alvesgaspar 14:00, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support After all Joaquim's and Richard's European beauties, now a (first?) North American gem amongst syrphids. Lycaon 14:24, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support Very nice... great composition... great context. --Tomascastelazo 15:20, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support One of the best composition on macro shots I've ever seen. The macro-freaks club is growing! --LucaG 18:07, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Comment Excellent photo. Some comments about the image page:
- Could you add some kind of location info either as an integral part of the description or by geocoding?
Done
- Thank you ;-)
- I can see you have created a dedicated species category for the hover fly, which is associated with Category:Syrphidae. According the WikiProject: Tree of life guidelines the convention is to add photos of species to a species gallery (in this case Eupeodes americanus), which should then be categorized to a higher taxa.
- Done
- Hmm, yes you made the species gallery alright but you still have the redundant species gallery as well. I recommend you get rid of the latter to avoid confusion for the next contributor of that species. That is how it usually done for species. Got it? If not, I can assist you. -- Slaunger 19:35, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- Category removed also. Calibas 21:42, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Confirmed -- Slaunger 20:18, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

- Do you know the species of the plant? If possible that should be identified too and the photo should be added to the species gallery of that plant species. -- Slaunger 18:10, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- No clue what plant this is. It was in a butterfly garden so I'm assuming it's not native. Calibas 19:07, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- OK, maybe someone can help you ID the plant? I think it adds value to the image page having identified the plant the hoverfly interacts with. -- Slaunger 19:35, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

- Zinnia species, probably Zinnia elegans or a hybrid. Calibas 02:46, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- Confirmed I think you are right. I took the liberty of adding the image to the unspecific Category:Zinnia. -- Slaunger 20:18, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
