Comment Los colores son muy fuertes, por lo que no se puede apreciar con clareza la imagen. Le ito xx 19:54, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Leitoxx, no he entendido tu comentario (por lo que me imagino que los compañeros que no hablan español, tampoco). ¿Dónde echas de menos nitidez?. Tampoco aprecio un exceso de saturación, y eso que mi monitor está calibrado. Poc o² 17:09, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Poco a poco, al lado de el insecto, especificando (hojas), enfoca una imagen tanto borrosa, lo cual hace divisar con más detalle a lo no tanto visible que al mismo objetivo, que en este caso sería el insecto. Espero haber sido claro Le ito xx 20:35, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support I am not a macro expert but my impression is that this one is very good. You balanced the flash light and ambient light very well thus the photo looks very naturally lightened. Question What lighting technique did you use? --Tuxyso (talk) 08:34, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A photo I just found while browsing through Category:Nature of Kerala. Pinging Vengolis for response. :) J e e 08:41, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've overseen that this is not your photo, sorry. Nonetheless light and colors are managed very well here. It would be intersting to get some information about the shooting technique. --Tuxyso (talk) 08:45, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Support Great detail and nice subject, does this guy have such a big eyes? :) but the crop / background are a bit distracting Poc o² 12:55, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Probably busy with her dinner; crushing pollen. :) J e e 13:01, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are a few hoverflies with mouth parts adapted to crunch polen grains Jee (e.g. Episyrphus balteatus), but I have doubts that this is the case. Notice the spongy pad used for mopping up fluids, like the house fly. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:39, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Alves for this little, precious info. I'm just a layman trying to learn little things. Always appreciated. J e e 02:39, 21 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
