Info The underside of a leaf of the Tulip Tree (Liriodendron tulipifera) with a mite. Magnification ratio is approximately 1:1. Compare to this flower and mites and this leaf for a sense of scale.
Support It's different: It's not just another insect on a flower picture. -- Ram-Man 04:42, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support I like the texture, the complimentary colors, and the composition. (But gross, it's a mite.) :) Jina Lee 04:48, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If you have to state that it is different... ...no seriously, absolutely fabulous in full size. Nice composition/setup and the mit has decent detail as well. --Dschwen 08:10, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Image would look better without the insect, in my opinion... otherwise it's good. MatthewFenton 17:01, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support Great! -- Lycaon 19:01, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support Great texture and composition, with the mite. --LucaG 19:27, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support The most decorative mite I've ever seen... Vassil 2 June 2007
Support- No doubt it is different... It would be much better though if the mite were a little bigger. Alvesgaspar 21:33, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think then that I would need a microscope. A higher resolution camera couldn't hurt either, but I don't have one of those. I will accept donations. ;-) -- Ram-Man 22:32, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Derek, wanna see the mite full filled on your sensor without any donation? You can use every lens as a magnifying lens when you rotate it and look through it from the opposit side. Try it, its fun. There are some adapters called retroadapters which enables you to mount your lens the other way around. I work a lot with this technique. --Makro Freak 23:09, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support Great composition, lighting and technical quality. A very nice photograph. Sting 23:05, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Martin Kozák 12:56, 4 June 2007 (UTC) — Yes, it is relatively nice from technical view although colors and brightness don't like me. But featured picture because of technical advantages and texture?[reply]

The underside of the leaf is darker and less bright green than the topside. I'll upload some whole leaf images later. -- Ram-Man 16:55, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You're right, the color appears to be a off, but I'm not sure that we want to do anything about that at the moment, this late in the process. -- Ram-Man 16:49, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

result: 14 support, 1 oppose, 0 neutral => featured. Simonizer 07:42, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
