 * Oppose This is an iconic image, but there must be a better version out there somewhere. This is too small, unsharp, it has dust spots, and the colors and contrast have been severely degraded. --Janke | Talk 09:20, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment previous nomination    Thisglad (talk) 09:39, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
