Creator: George Chernilevsky

Info: After very fast photographing (1-2 sec) this crab has returned to usual pose. I wouldn't like to do it harm. It is tiny animal, like $1 coin by size.

Oppose. For me, the eggs don't pop out crisply enough - the plane of focus seems to run through the pincers. EV high, technical quality not up to par. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 13:32, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Very snapshotty. Not FPC. Greg L (talk) 17:32, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Sorry, you know I've liked your work in the past, but I agree with PLW here. Additionally, I'm not sure about the idea of featuring a picture of a crab you've put on it's back. I'm not coming from an animal rights perspective (I'm sure you looked after it) I just don't think it's the best setup. J Milburn (talk) 18:49, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support Given the size of the animal, and as it illustrates an interesting behaviour that couldn't easily be illustrated any other way. Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:32, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
