Original - A leaf-cutter bee (Anthidium florentinum) collecting nectar from a Lantana camara flower, with its long and slender tongue. This species of solitary (non-social) bees belong to the Megachilidae family. They fly all summer and make their nests in holes in the ground, walls or trees, with hairs plucked from plants.Alternative
Reason
A detailed and high quality depiction of a handsome bee in its natural environment
Oppose both Original has poor sharpness (I suspect from a too small aperture) and the wings are quite tatty (reducing enc value unless this is characteristic of the species) and are slightly motion blurred. The alternative has harsh lighting and is oversharpened. Nice enough photos, but not quite FP level IMO --Fir000210:34, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
Oppose both sorry but I have to agree with Fir0002, the alternative looks false and the original just lacks the crisp detail needed --Hadseys (talk • contribs) 16:07, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
