•  Request A short explanation should be helpful, I'm interested to know more about this image. What is it (categorization is very scientific) ? What size in real ? Technical: The frame is too tight, the "thing" needs more space, IMO.--Jebulon (talk) 08:20, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Info Thankyou for your interest. It is the sporophyte of the moss Diphyscium foliosum. The real-world size of the image is about 2 or 3 mm across. It is a stack of multiple images to gain depth-of-field at high magnification. Des Callaghan
  •  Support Thanks for answer. I'm a complete ignorant, but I'm very impressed. Nice and very useful. Great job. Again: more space, please ! ;) --Jebulon (talk) 21:02, 14 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Comment very good, congratulations. If I can: There are traces of old background that could be removed, a softening of the cutting areas of the subject and the black background in some spots would be interesting. I say this because in a larger format that draws attention. I agree with Jebulon the background should make more space, this tight. The technical aspects of the implementation (including the background changing) could be described like this: Glassy carbon in Retouched template. -- Lauro Sirgado^contribs 14:54, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Info Thankyou. Yes you are quite right, the edges were a bit messy. I've retouched them and given the subject a slightly larger canvas. I've uploaded the new version, over-writing the original version. Des Callaghan
