 * Weak support The picture has good educational value but it is not very attractive. --H92110 (talk) 07:18, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by "not very attractive"? I find this image very interesting not just for the main subject, but also the soldiers' poses and military clothing, and facial expression, composition etc. However, you would have different views though.--Caspian blue 08:39, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Monochrome pictures are not veru attractive to my eyes. Thank you for respecting my views :-) --H92110 (talk) 11:25, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment There seems to be no 100% black in the image, can it be redone to up the contrast? Nezzadar   [SPEAK]  07:15, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Double checked the histogram; there's data at the dark end, although the histogram doesn't pick up very much until about 6. Durova  366 07:45, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
