 * Support with some technical comments: if I had a chance to shoot something like this, I'd probably adjust the exposure bias by dropping it by 1/3 or 2/3 (maybe with a slightly increased ISO, like 800) and then brightening in post. That'd get a faster shutter speed, meaning (hopefully) that we don't have to downsize as much to get a sharp image. I shot these images like that (in what appears to have been slightly worse light, although my lens wasn't exactly a fast one either... shame I misplaced the RAWs) and the results were okay. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:35, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment. Very nice. I won't be trying this pose at home. I was just slightly disappointed in the sharpness of the face at full size. Perhaps I am being too demanding. 109.147.185.178 (talk) 02:01, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support While the quality could be better, the EV wins it for me. Could be replaced if a better image is obtained--Muhammad (talk) 08:45, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
