Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Venenciadora serving Sherry

Voting period ends on 25 Jan 2012 at 22:30:03 (UTC)

Reason: Technical details first: it's over 1,000 pixels wide, it's not fair use and I don't think it's been photoshopped (2, 4, 8). I would argue that it passes (1) as the lady is in focus and I can't detect any graininess. I feel that it both represents an aspect of Sherry people might not have been aware of otherwise (5) and is striking (3). I think the caption is succinct for (7), but there's more metadata at the original that could be added. I must confess I don't really understand what you mean by (6).

- Sorry, that was because of a file name move; should be fixed now. It Is Me Here ^{t / c} 23:21, 15 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Question Is there any reason for the black and white? Have you considered asking the author for a colour copy? (6) is more applicable to diagrams and stuff, which need references. JJ Harrison (talk) 05:13, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose just to get a vote on this. Significant artifacting through overcompression, harsh flash - the unnecessary b&w is indeed 'masking' a number of flaws that would be more apparent in colour. --jjron (talk) 03:07, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I concur with the points jjron made. Also, the image lacks the proper context in the article, as we don't have much understanding of what a venenciadora is. A shame about these points though, it is otherwise a nice submission for FP. Jujutacular ^talk 13:46, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. In general it's a good image and EV would be pretty good. --jjron (talk) 17:06, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
