- Support. The most glaring issue mentioned in the previous nomination looks fixed. I would like to know what the grub thingy is in the middle of the picture. Might be some EV in that. :) -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 08:57, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
- Its some kind of a worm. --Muhammad(talk) 13:08, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
- I'll rephrase: I'd like to know exactly what the grub-like, worm-like thingy in the middle is: a larva of some sort perhaps? To me it's the star of the picture: once you've seen it's there, it's noticeable even in the thumbnail. -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 16:21, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
- I am working on getting an expert to id it but it may take some time. --Muhammad(talk) 07:02, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
- The worm was identified as a lepidopteran larva. --Muhammad(talk) 07:47, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- That doesn't seem very specific. Is a species ID not possible? Your reference is to an order made up of all moths and butterflies (referenced as "one of the most speciose orders in the class Insecta" in the article). ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 06:37, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Species id for the larva is impossible as I did not see the worm before photographing the flower and I do not have any picture with good details. Nonetheless, this image is supposed to show a sunflower and IMO it does that. The worm is a bonus. --Muhammad(talk) 07:09, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

- Support - very nice image - has 'wow' factor! :D - Fastily (talk) 23:57, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
- Neutral its pretty interesting, plus its sharp and detailed. The focus stack seems to have been fairly well done. Unfortunately the highlights are severely blown, which isn't really acceptable for a subject that you can shoot again. Noodle snacks (talk) 12:14, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

- Weak support per Noodle Snacks good point. ZooFari 16:18, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
