  • Oppose. It's not very detailed or clear photo, and the colours are quite faded. I've taken a photo of a very similar butterfly (I self-identified it as an Adonis Blue rather than Common Blue but it's possible I'm wrong and it is indeed the Common Blue) and I think mine is significantly better. It has the same issues of focus at the tips of the wings but is otherwise a far more detailed image and a better specimen. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 13:38, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as per Diliff's stunning photograph. After comparing, it's very hard to support nom. And just as a personal bias, I love seeing pairs (male and female) of these photos nominated when there is significant sexual dimorphism. Mattximus (talk) 03:21, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
