Question Has the lower half of the image been cut out/the background painted black? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Charlesjsharp (talk • contribs) 
Comment - Charles' question hadn't occurred to me. User:Emjeha, terima kasih untuk gambar ini! Saya sukanya banyak. Soalan Charlesjsharp: Adakah latar belakang gambar ini ditambah sebagai lukisan? Saya juga akan nantikan jawaban Anda. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:48, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- jadi berapa bahasa anda bercakap Ikan Kekek ? (my apologies to Google translate) Charles (talk) 08:14, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- I'll answer in English. I lived in Malaysia for 2 years of my childhood and became absolutely fluent in Terengganu dialect (thick accent) within 6 months and also read and wrote very well at a 6th-grade level. Malay and Indonesian are in my estimation almost as mutually intelligible as British and U.S. English, and I know some particularly Indonesian words as well. I regained most of my fluency in Malay after week 1 of my 4 1/2-week return trip in 2003. My other best non-English languages are Italian and French, which I have spoken at a very good conversational level (sufficient for long conversations) and read well when in practice (I'm rusty but can still read, write and speak them somewhat). After that is probably German, which I was speaking at a sort of advanced intermediate level, maybe, the last time I was in Germany in 2014 but don't do so well reading or writing because my vocabulary is limited and I'm not comfortable with many aspects of German grammar yet. I also speak sort of restaurant-level Spanish (but it keeps going over to Italian) and survival-level Mandarin and picked up a smattering of Hungarian in Budapest in 1994, most of what little I knew I have since forgotten. That mostly covers it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:41, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Overprocessed --Wilfredor (talk) 16:25, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
Weak oppose got to agree with Wilfredor. It's a great image, but seriously overprocessed to the point of uncanny valley. — Rhododendrites talk | 00:33, 14 April 2020 (UTC)- Support Yes, the processing is a bit heavy, but not overly so for my tastes. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 05:14, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment - I would like to support; in fact, I considered nominating the photo. But I would like a reply to the question on whether the background was added separately, and so far, no answer has been forthcoming. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:43, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Ikan Kekek: , @Emjeha: is not active during the last month, but I don't think that a fake background is probable. It is quite clear that there's an black fabric on the background, in some areas it's very noticeable. The bottom part is quite uniformly black, but so are other areas in the photo.

- Support - The only black article of clothing that's obvious to me is the man's songkok (hat), but I'll support based on your confidence about the background. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:14, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
- Weak oppose per Rhododendrites. I'm really not sure if it's a photo or a painting. Daniel Case (talk) 17:35, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
