Review (criteria)	Support Looks like the best image in the category and meets all the criterias.--Mbz1 (talk) 23:29, 13 March 2009 (UTC)  Oppose - This is not the best, Richard, and we both know it -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:39, 13 March 2009 (UTC) Which one do you suggest? --Eusebius (talk) 14:01, 14 March 2009 (UTC) I assume he had this picture in mind which is very nice but I prefer a diagonal view where you can see the wings and the shape of the animal much better. I considered it very well before nominating this picture. By the way - the sideview was reverted to the diagonal view by an enthologist at german wikipedia which I think was the right decission. --Richard Bartz (talk) 18:50, 14 March 2009 (UTC) Yes, I saw this FP and liked it, but I agree with Richard that while FP image is of a better quality, the nominated image is better as VI.--Mbz1 (talk) 18:15, 15 March 2009 (UTC) Well, that is not my opinion. Except for the wing venation, the FP is a clearer depiction of this amazing fly, imo -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:40, 15 March 2009 (UTC)  Support The file mentioned by Joaquim is of course prime quality, but IMO this one shows the animal better as you would encounter it in the field, hence my support.
