As Leahy is out-of-office and is now considered a historical figure, we do not have to use a recent image of him. See, for example, Dianne Feinstein, where this topic was discussed on that talk page. I think his 2006 portrait ( [1]) is more focused and has better composition compared to the 2021 portrait ( [2]), which in my opinion has many distractions (particularly the bright background); when glancing at each image, the 2006 image immediately draws my eyes to his face, while my eye can't immediately focus on anything in the 2021 image, as the whole image is equally sharp (i.e. the background is equal focus to the foreground). Also worth noting that the two images are of equal resolution. Curbon7 ( talk) 07:03, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
All of the pictures of Leahy seem to have an engrained smile on his face. I can't whether or not this is photoshop or that's just what he looks like.
Can someone please explain this to me. 162.221.219.102 ( talk) 16:19, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
