- Oppose Too dark at bottom, and the book is too obviously a prop. I'd prefer a more natural/relaxed pose with more even light, and maybe more space. INeverCry 02:13, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support works for me - well done --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 06:05, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose - This is really somewhat of a gut-level oppose vote: I react differently to a laptop screen than to books on a shelf. I find the text on the TV segment on the laptop behind and to the right of the subject to be overly distracting and a little gimmicky, though I understand the reason for it, as described in the second sentence of the file description: "Became famous for being one of the few Arabic-speaking Israelis interviewed for Arabic satellite channels such as Al-Jazeera." But I don't see that sentence as necessitating a laptop picture of him appearing on Al-Jazeera with a particular message. If the laptop were cropped out, I'd give the photo another look and might support it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:30, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose I like the idea of this as an environmental portrait, but this is too much environment at the expense of the portrait; per Ikan, I find the computer screen unnecessary. Cropping it out would probably simplify the image wonderfully, although it would also make it much less environmental. Daniel Case (talk) 03:34, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
