Delist: George Washington Carver, 1942
Voting period ends on 17 Feb 2016  at 19:46:01 (UTC)
 * Reason:Not used, very late in his life, has weird composition (it's all shifted left), strange contrast (everything looks really faded), a large out-of-focus flower, what might be a hand at the bottom of the image, which is a blob - it's terrible. Perhaps you could crop that into something passable, but that shouldn't be an FP, and this should. Further, if the problem with Featured picture candidates/George Washington Carver c. 1910 (which clearly should be the FP of Carver)is that it supposedly doesn't have enough contrast between him and the background, that one has exactly the same issue, plus all the other ones. Also, vote for Featured picture candidates/George Washington Carver c. 1910, because it would be ridiculous if that didn't pass while this has been on the main page.
 * Articles this image appears in:None! A crop, File:George Washington Carver-crop.jpg, is used, but still has most of the issues except the intervening out-of focus blobs and he left shift, while adding lots of artefacting on the ear and side of face, and fattening out all detail on his right (viewer left) cheek. And, again, every single feature in Featured picture candidates/George Washington Carver c. 1910 is fully visible, has appropriate texture, is sharp, and free from artefacting.
