•  Comment I think a crop on the right and adding some space on the left would make it better (rule of the third). Nice expression. Yann (talk) 14:24, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Nice comment, however, IMHO To capture human expressions do not have time to implement any rule, just take the picture quickly as possible. If you or anyone has any different technique, is a good idea to know. thanks --The Photographer (talk) 14:38, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

 Question Yann gave you good advice. Crop isn't so lucky - middle position. Picture is 2 Mpx (barely "legal") on 12 Mpx camera. I am sure you have plenty of space around to improve crop. Let us see the beauty in full, why such downsizing ? Also some bad posterizing in black area. --Mile (talk) 15:22, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Hope The Photographer have some explanation for the crop or down-sampling. See the discussion on VP too. Jee 16:20, 28 January 2014 (UTC

That picture was taken and exported from Lightroom long time ago. I think that this image had some sort of defect and I wanted to hide it downsizing. However, there is no way of knowing, since the computer where are raws and lightroom is being repaired at this time. On the other hand, I have noticed comments raise the picture resolution, if you have a 12 MP camera should always try upload pictures at the highest resolution possible, I am absolutely in favor of this point .. Many users have cameras with huge resolutions like D800, however, they prefer upload images in smaller sizes. Thanks --The Photographer (talk) 17:16, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

 Support Thanks Wilfredo for your very reasonable reply. Jee 17:31, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

 Oppose Sorry; the face seems badly cut by the cloning attempt to clean the background. See the alt. Jee 06:29, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Alternative

•  Support I prefer this picture because it shows best the market. ArionEstar (talk) from Google Translate. 22:56, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose Not an alternative at all. It is another file. --Jebulon (talk) 15:04, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

@Jebulon: the picture shows the same woman, same place, same time. ArionEstar (talk) from Google Translate. 15:14, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

@ArionEstar: Please have a look in the FPC discussion page about the definition of "alternative", thank you--Jebulon (talk) 15:50, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

•  Support Great! (in case if this promotion is eligible) --Kikos (talk) 15:30, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose The arm on the left is distracting. A portrait crop would work here. Saffron Blaze (talk) 04:19, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

• Or, that hand can be easily removed. But the removal of the "ball" very close to the face ruined the picture above. :( Jee 05:04, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
