Reason: A rather nicely-composed image, showing many of the symbols of Welsh nationalism - flag, daffodil, druidicism/historical dress (I believe that's part of the druidicism that pervades such things as the Eisteddfod, but I can't prove that without a source).

Support as nominator – Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 02:33, 1 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - @Adam Cuerden: the shot's amazing. Great quality. Symbolism is good. However, I'm hesitant in voting support (I'm inclined for a weak support, unless you convince me otherwise, and you usually do) because I'm worried about EV here. It seems like any other parade in Wales, and how this particular theme relates to St. David's Day is questionable on my end. Is this the only way they celebrate it? If so, is the costume of this person unique for St. David Day parades, or do people dress like this during other Wales parades as well? If it's the latter, I'm afraid the EV may drop considerably. Also, the guy on the left with the yellow jacket is kinda bugging me. Étienne Dolet (talk) 07:39, 1 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- @EtienneDolet: Offhand, I can't think of any other day widely celebrated with parades, to be honest - Admittedly, when I lived in Wales, I was out in Haverfordwest, not one of the big cities - still, anything I can think of that would be a parade, e.g. celebrating a sporting win, probably wouldn't involve costumes.

Comment I'm still inclined to do a weak support, but I'm going to let others comment and see what they have to say. Étienne Dolet (talk) 18:04, 1 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion: crop out the yellow out-of-focus guy on the left? He's very distracting. Renata (talk) 15:56, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep eyeing this and trying to figure out how to crop it, to keep it balanced. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 01:23, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
