Fisherman and his catch in Seychelles

 * Reason:High resolution, valuable illustration of a non-stereotypical fisherman, public domain, an appropriate visual accompaniment to the article Fisherman, no inappropriate manipulation.

Personally I find this image beautifully composed and of sufficient technical quality. Possible gripes could be its boosted saturation or obvious dodging near the legs. I believe that the cultural and historical significance (caught by hand lines) of this image should outweigh these blemishes, which might be easily corrected in Photoshop. Other opinions?

I'm new to this, please point out any technical mistakes in this post :)

 * Regretful Oppose Could be very good if re-shot. As it is, the image was overexposed originally, and Photoshop can't correct more than small mistakes without major quality loss. Very interesting subject, but the lighting/color is too poor. Clegs (talk) 06:02, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
