Saddam Hussein


Excellent picture in a good size with no obvious flaws (at least to my eyes)

 * Comments:
 * I do like the picture, enough to download and run a minor edit. Though the DOF is small, focus is good around the right eye and nose. In my edit I took out a bit of excess space at the top and side and removed the blurry bit at the bottom right corner (his other hand?). Also did a slight curves adjustment to lift some shadows. What worries me is that other hand, that is not only badly out of focus, but unfortunately sits across his face. It reminds me a bit of the Javier Solana FP [[Image:Javier Solana (2007).jpg|35px]]; the hand there wasn't as out of focus as this and also did not obscure his face, but still attracted some opposes based on that. I think it may be worth a try, though suspect if nothing else that hand may do it in. --jjron (talk) 13:22, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
