  • Weak oppose I find the blurred foreground very distracting, which I know would be difficult to avoid at this scale, hence the weakness of the oppose. Also is the bit at the front a proboscis or one antenna obscuring the other? Terri G (talk) 16:39, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
    • The blurry foreground as you rightfully mention is impossible to avoid at this level of magnification without compromising on the quality of the picture. At the front, one antenna is obscuring the other, but in my experience photographing wasps, it is quite commons for such an occurrence. --Muhammad(talk) 18:04, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
