Just this one. I didn't nominate the third, so I can't withdraw that one. The middle one still has a chance of success if it receives a vote or two more. -- Ram-Man11:40, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What do you mean "not a real macro"? Also, the luminance looks fine to me, perhaps your monitor is too dark? Lightening it up washes out the color. -- Ram-Man19:36, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I know what a macro is, I just didn't understand why you were opposing because of it. The guidelines do not require images to either be or not be macros. The only legitimate reason to oppose because it is not a macro is if it doesn't have a sufficient "wow factor" because of it. Anything else is just an opinion and doesn't belong here, just as it would be inappropriate to oppose all pictures with the color blue because you don't like blue. -- Ram-Man22:39, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Let me put it this way: We cannot feature all Ram-Man butterfly pictures. They have no VALUE, there are too many of them even at that page. If at least they were macro, maybe they'd have some value (probably not). There is no "wow factor" in your pictures.--Mbz122:45, 4 June 2007 (UTC)Mbz1[reply]
Info Edit 1 is better than the original but still a little shy. This version brings a little more colour and contrast, specially in the greens. - Alvesgaspar17:43, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I don't think that the color of the butterfly matches reality. It is too yellow or green. Also, unless someone can identify the plant in question, I don't remember it being that green, especially for an adult plant in mid-summer at the end of July when this picture was taken. If anything, I worried that my changes went too far. The whole image looks unnatural. -- Ram-Man17:53, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Overexposed, digital artefacts. The correct light is somewhere between #2 and #3 (but you need a non linear filter to just it and avoid saturation of whites and decoloration! light of greens if OK, but oranges in the fly and magentas of flowers are washed out; to correct it, you must separate the image into at least 5 color planes, and adjust each color precisely before recomposing the image) Verdy p21:13, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
