- Oppose - eye-catching, yes. However, she and her legs are rather out of focus, the scene overall is dark, and one leg is cutoff. That said, the subject is deceased, so no better image may exist. I note that our copy is 1,363 × 2,048, while the original on flickr is 2832 × 4256, so someone should definitely grab the higher res one. Chris857 (talk) 03:28, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- I've uploaded the original. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:39, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose (edit conflict) Really compelling shot; the encyclopedic value is pretty strong for the articles. However, the image was only updated yesterday-- we usually encourage folks to wait a week or so after the image has been placed on articles before nominating it. Also of concern, the subject and the Queen Anne "legs" are somewhat out of focus, which you can see when viewing at full resolution. I, JethroBT drop me a line 03:34, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose Powerful image, perhaps. But lighting and such is too off for FP. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:24, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose per the previously mentioned lighting, focus, and cut-off issues. Cat-fivetc ---- 02:35, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose. Very compelling shot, but as mentioned above, the technical aspects of the photo are lacking. -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 20:28, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
