•  Support Nice expresion, could be nice see more to the left --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 12:18, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Oppose Just a vietnamese child monk, like many others. Not wow for me -- Jiel (talk) 17:38, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Support I like --LivioAndronico talk 21:14, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose I understand that some might think “wow, a young Vietnamese monk dressed in a traditional robe and having a mysterious look!!”", but for someone travelling around it's just yet another one, nothing special about it. The colors are a bit monotone and the light is slightly dull even though the combo could work well with the mood of the picture... but which mood? He's probably just bored and thinking of something else? I still like it though, it's a nice photo for documenting purposes and still an interesting portrait, just not “wow” I believe. -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 23:46, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Comment I agree with this. Jiel (talk) 21:49, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Support Very good, the black shadow stripe distracts, but inevitable -- Lauro Sirgado^contribs 13:39, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Question Doubtful about real colours; Buddha monks supposed to be wear more vibrant coloured cloths. Jee 15:29, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Comment That are the true colours. No alterations. No games with funny colour sliders and filters. Just the young monk in his robe in the last sunlight of Thien Mu Temple. I had more photos, but not good enough to upload to Commons.--CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 21:39, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
  •  Support Thanks for the info. Jee 02:28, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Support If it were not a portrait, I'd oppose. But as a portrait ... it looks like the sort of thing I used to read National Geographic for when I was younger. Daniel Case (talk) 06:00, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Support Yann (talk) 13:32, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Support by virtue of what he's doing with his left foot. Not just sitting there looking bored, but also fidgeting, thus a bit more touch of humanity. --Kbh3^rdtalk 18:52, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Support I appreciate very much the interplay between the color of his clothes and the background wall. -- Slaunger (talk) 20:11, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Support --///EuroCarGT 03:32, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Support -- Christian Ferrer ^Talk 18:08, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose The colours might be natural, but they look like sunset (or early morning) to me, which makes the side of the child at his left underexposed. Not much contrast, nor vibrance, which makes the picture to appear "flat". --Ruthven (talk) 09:16, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Support Colors are very nice. --Tuxyso (talk) 09:39, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
