[edit] Redback frontal view

Reason
The cutout white background is a big reason, you lose perspective that a "natural" white BG shot has. In fact, the photoshopped shadows can be misleading. Size is pretty far below requirements. Sharpness isn't good either.

  • Delist - per Fcb. It also appears to only have 7 legs. The size is way too small for a FP, espcially consider the lack of shapness. I would strongly encourage Fir to give it another go, he should have no trouble greatly improving this. Cacophony 22:16, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delist - This is a pretty yucky photograph. Especially since it is not in its natural environment and the fake shadow. The spider's face can't even be made out. -Henry W. Schmitt 15:03, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delist Horrible quality. Matt Deres 20:02, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delist Not great quality and especially since it's on the white cutout. Cat-five - talk 02:25, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
