- Weak oppose This existing FP is a more detailed resource about pollen. As for the stamen, this image doesn't tell me anything about the structure of the stamen, or how pollen grains develop. It just shows what a big mess it is at the end of the day, which is not a whole lot of EV. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 01:00, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose Per PLW's reasons, nifty macro shot, but it isn't really giving any EV on the structure of the flower, because it's so macro. The FW picture PLW linked too is great to illustrate the structure of pollen, and this image doesn't illustrate that way, nor can it illustrate the structure of the stamen. — raeky (talk | edits) 04:22, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
- Comment, File:Misc pollen.jpg is not even marginally similar to this in my opinion. –Juliancolton | Talk 16:28, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
- Questions At what magnification was this taken at? Compared to your other flower pics, why isn't the whole thing in focus? --Muhammad(talk) 10:28, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
- 5x. Didn't think it was needed. It is already a moderate stack. Noodle snacks (talk) 10:33, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

"Support This is an astounding image. I have never seen a better llustration of pollen in its natural state, as opposed to removed from the stamen and put under an electon microscope, losing all colour detail. Shoemaker's Holiday Over 209 FCs served 10:04, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
