 * Reason:A very nice photo - a little luminous, but that's a 1910s photographic convention, I think - either you dump the people deep into shadow, or you make them glow. One of the two. #10wikicommonsdays Day 7

 * Weak support - Focus seems to be on the equipment behind her. Her hand is really out of focus. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:48, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure the focus is that bad; it's a very big scan. Consider this scaled down version - it's still well above the minimum requirements, but everything in the image looks sharp. Perfect focus distance, as would be seen at poster-size, probably was beyond 1910s camera technology, even if this is an incredible image overall. Adam Cuerden (talk) 04:18, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Her hand is still out of focus, even scaled down. That's my main problem: her experiment (if that's what it is) is out of focus, and yet it's one of the most important parts of the photograph. The test tubes on the table are pin sharp, and though her face is a bit soft at this resolution I don't mind too much. It's the hand that gives me pause. (If this were a more modern picture, I'd have opposed). — Chris Woodrich (talk) 04:45, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment White highlights and/or brightness could be adjusted here too, something like this. Brandmeistertalk  13:03, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
