Oppose shallow DOF --ianaré (talk) 20:20, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough on some of the other opposes for shallow DOF, but this one is pretty good by macro DOF standards.. Diliff (talk) 05:56, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, except 'pretty good' is not good enough for FP. Compare with this, this, or this. --ianaré (talk) 08:13, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I do agree with Ianaré. This is is a side view of an insect with folded wings. Most of the animal is in one plane, so it is merely a matter of positioning the camera to get a sharp photo from head to tail. This is not always trivial with skittish insects of course, but it is the end result that counts. Lycaon (talk) 06:05, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
