Set: Sarah Vaughan[edit]

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 20 Jul 2013 at 17:16:39 (UTC)

No. 1 in a set of 2 – Sarah Vaughan, jazz (and other genres) singer, in 1946.
No. 2 in a set of 2 – Sarah Vaughan at Café Society, also 1946.
Reason
A high-quality mini-set of photos by a notable photographer. These two were chosen to give both a really good view of Vaughan performing, as well as a more standard photo of her from the front, to assist identification. Some flaws - these are relatively candid shots - but they're also irreplaceable. Interesting fact: There's three people (besides Sarah Vaughan) visible in No. 2, although you can only see two of their faces.
Haven't done a restoration set in a bit. Good to get back to them. In this case, I think the photos both add lot of value, since they have completely different angles and attitudes. Adam Cuerden (talk) 17:28, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support both Beautiful photos! I happen to love the fact that they are candid. To me it gives more personality. Jujutacular (talk) 14:47, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oh, aye, definitely, that's not one of the flaws, it's just a probable cause for them, for instance, the background above her head in the first shot isn't ideal, but the benefit of being a candid shot - the expressiveness - more than makes up for it.
