As mentioned before, someone with more skill can no doubt do a better job (I can't even find the contrast slider on this piece of junk I'm using) bu tin the meantime it needs to be such that you can at least make out where Chauvin's knee ends and Floyd's body begins. | |

We have a bot to automatically reduce image resolution to meet WP:NFCC, so it shouldn't be a big deal if someone uploads an excessively big version, but I've just reduced it manually to put an end to the revert war. | |
