Oppose Its an alright picture... Kinda looks like someone just pointed a camera and took the picture (Snapshot-ish). Its blurry in spots, and its out of focus. Not the best picture to represent the Egyptian Revolution.

Oppose. Very soft, very titled, inexplicably saved as a PNG. I could be convinced if this had particularly high EV, as I recognise that this is a photo of a unique historical event, but I do suspect that this was a very heavily photographed event.

Oppose. The image softness is evident from the thumbnail. Lacking in contrast and not sure about the white balance - looks kind of bluish to me. Did a quick search for images of Tahrir square on wikipedia and saw several better images in my opinion GodEmperorTalk22:26, 20 January 2012 (UTC).reply
I honestly spent days going through picture of Tahrir Square during the first 18 days of the uprising and this photo in my opinion is the best pgoto we can find on wiki at the moment. If you think or saw a better picture, please feel free so share them with me here. The image has some issues but keep in mind the circumstances that was surrounding the photographers around that time. --

Weak support. Rotation necessary, but as sufficient resolution is being provided, the blurriness does not, imo, bar this from being promoted. Possibility of full support after making the appropriate correction. I looked at the alternatives, and this one does stand out on aesthetic grounds, when the information conveyed seems to be about the same. This one also wins on resolution against the half dozen or so others I've seen.

Oppose Blurry. Good EV, but not done technically well enough.
