Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Abbey Lincoln redux

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 6 Sep 2016 at 05:53:18 (UTC)

Reason: A fine image; grainy, but acceptably so for a historical shot. Previous nomination seems to have mainly failed as I was late preparing the alt.

Comment – (Previous) Suggest removal of that bit of the microphone. Sca (talk) 14:59, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- It's easily doable; I just worry it might be misleading. Thoughts? I could prepare an alt, if desired. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 15:35, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - I like the mic, but too bad there isn't more of it. I think it adds balance to the composition and shows she is on stage. I support either way though, with and without mic. Bammesk (talk) 16:34, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Sorry, but I'm really not sold on the angle, here. Perhaps acceptable for a certain kind of documentary/journalistic image, but not at all great for a portrait, in my view. Josh Milburn (talk) 03:27, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
