- Support as nominator --Noodle snacks (talk) 10:17, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
- Support. There is a dust spot to the left of the front-left leg. Also, the background seems very patchy, but otherwise a pretty damn good capture there. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 11:31, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
- Support After seeing the image in your gallery, I was going to nominate it here but you beat me to it :). Best mosquito picture I have seen. 2x? --Muhammad(talk) 11:39, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
- Your camera date is messed up --Muhammad(talk) 11:40, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, probably, The usb port is broken. The onboard flash is broken, I wonder what will go next. Roughly 2x yes. Noodle snacks (talk) 22:25, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

- Caption ...feeding on a human host? Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 13:18, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
- Done, the article caption already said something to that effect. Noodle snacks (talk) 22:30, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
- Comment. I think that the width can be reduced by 10 to 15% by cropping from the left. Snowman (talk) 15:08, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
- There is now a crop. Noodle snacks (talk) 00:17, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Neutral.Is sharp and has a nice colour composition, but I would preffer a female human arm as the base, for various reasons, but mostly because I find the hair somewhat distracting. I also think is more characteristic for mozzies to bite where is less hair. Elekhh (talk) 22:58, 19 November 2009 (UTC)- There is one advantage - a sense of scale. I usually get bitten on my legs, so I wouldn't call it characteristic to bite where there is less hair. Noodle snacks (talk) 00:16, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- The texture of the skin also provides scale, as long we know is human, not dinosaur. Following the issue I just raised on the talk page, I wouldn't hesitate to support it as Valued picture. Elekhh (talk) 00:26, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- Voting oppose and then soliciting that same image for VP is considered bad form. It doesn't bother me greatly, but I know that some people really dislike it and see it as harmful to the FPC process. There are plenty of closed nominations, and tens of thousands of images that don't make it here (which was the rationale for VP after all) Mostlyharmless (talk) 04:47, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

- The last time I checked, females have hair on their arms, too. I'm afraid I don't understand how a female arm could be relevant in the slightest? Maedin\talk 06:51, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- Aaah..., but females don't let 'em grow ;-) --Muhammad(talk) 09:11, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- LOL.. But unless this is a regional cultural ritual that I was not aware of, I don't think that females usually shave their arms. ;-) Ðiliff «» (Talk) 10:22, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- Support crop. In face of such overwhelming enthusiasm, I can't stay neutral. Elekhh (talk) 02:00, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
- Support. I salute your bravery! :p --Silversmith Hewwo 07:20, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
