Original – Gary Johnson, former Governor of New Mexico and 2012 U.S. presidential candidate.
Alternative - more contrast. Edited by User:Gage
Reason
A clear and subtly expressive portrait of the subject. Also without an awful backdrop like so many U.S. politician images.

  • Support as nominator --Sir Richardson (talk) 00:10, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support original: Good picture, good contrast. Oppose alternative. Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:08, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: This sort of shit pisses me off, especially as I'm the one who uploaded it: Why in hell is Gage's ridiculous modification saved as the "original" (hell, why hasn't that thing been deleted yet?), and the photo that we were sent by the copyright holder uploaded as a "modification"? Oppose until that is sorted out. J Milburn (talk) 11:30, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Wait, I need some clarification: you reverted Gage's edit, so is the modified one (nominated as the "Original" here) the one that is modified and the original ("alternativ" show now) the original? SpencerT♦C 22:30, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
      • I reverted Gage's edit because, with none of the due respect, if he's going to upload shit like that, he can do it elsewhere, not over the top of decent pictures. J Milburn (talk) 12:42, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
        • Gage has not reverted again. Are either of the edits okay with you, or is it still an oppose? Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:06, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose limited EV as by any staged portrait. Any image of him at a rally or other public event would have higher EV. --Elekhh (talk) 02:16, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support original. Until we do a better job on portraits of people I need to support these kinds of pics (when well done). IOW, when every celebrity is getting us a pic this quality, I will stop.TCO (Reviews needed) 07:00, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
