Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Pearl Harbour

The aftermath of a Japanese attack on 3 ships in Pearl Harbour.

 * Reason:It is a historically significant image of a major event in World War 2. I have restored the image in Photoshop Elements 5.0 to remove some slight film grain and put the image's subjects in focus.  As far as I know, this is the only image we have that compares the damage of three different ships.
 * Articles this image appears in:Pearl Harbor
 * Creator:Originally from, I restored the image myself.

 * Oppose The image is far below the minimum size requirements, so we have to ask ourselves, is this image so historical that we should ignore the requirements? I think not, because it's the kind of image that would really benefit from higher res, to allow us to see more detail.  It's also tilted, and the sky seems to have jpeg artifacts.  I note there is a pretty high res image of the Arizona at Pearl Habor so perhaps there are other bigger ones out there.  Fletcher (talk) 19:52, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Oppose/Close. Far, far too small. Large and high quality pictures of the attack on Pearl Harbour exist, such as this [[Image:USS SHAW exploding Pearl Harbor Nara 80-G-16871 2.jpg|thumb|250px|featured picture of the USS Shaw exploding]]. Mostlyharmless (talk) 23:13, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Mostlyharmless: I thumbnailed this very large image. --Uncle Bungle (talk) 23:15, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose, suggest speedy close - I love the image, just too small. I suggest a speedy close. -- Lord   ₪   Sunday   00:25, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
