Reason

The crop was disfavoured by the photographer, but got promoted because !voters found the white patch in the background distracting. In the nominated version, the white patch, which is not, to my knowledge, relevant to the encyclopaedic value of the picture, has been removed, while the original framing has been restored.

• weak support Delist, oppose replace and replace. The framing is indeed not ideal but the white patch is even less desirable. The replacement looks fine to me.

• Delist and replace The new version is more aesthetically pleasing, and draws more attention to the fly, rather than the plant. Mahahahaneapneap (talk) 22:43, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
