Original – Justice Bechu Kurian Thomas
Reason
Good quality, lighting, EV and composition. Though there is a glare in the spectacle, it is not much distracting the image/eyes and I seriously did not want to manipulate the image by removing it. The impossibility of getting good quality pictures of judges adds high EV.

Charlesjsharp, my major contributions are towards the Indian judiciary and especially Kerala state judiciary, the highest judicial system in the state. I don't think there are much contributors specifically on this particular area since the availability of material and photographs are very less and difficult. I don't know how to explain the difficulty of getting a portrait of a judicial officer. Moreover, as you suggested in some other discussions, the article is not the criteria for considering FPC. As far as the other objections are concerned, I did not want to manipulate the image, that is they I left it as it is for consideration. DreamSparrow Chat 05:55, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Does the Kerala state judiciary has any interest outside Kerala? I suspect not. Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:38, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I know Bammesk, but hope you understand the difficulty to give a direction for pose or composition arrangement to a 'Judge'. Helpless. I could take the better way possible. DreamSparrow Chat 18:40, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If that be so, Hima Kohli, P. S. Narasimha, Bela Trivedi, Nicholas Hamblen, Lord Hamblen of Kersey, Ben Stephens, Lord Stephens of Creevyloughgare are also not notable according to you ? They are also doing their job but notable. The same way he holds the position/his job makes him notable. DreamSparrow Chat 18:36, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I guess we have different ideas on notability. Certainly the British examples are not notable in my view. Charlesjsharp (talk) 22:27, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
May be the difference in idea Charlesjsharp. But Charles, let me make it more specific, we cannot consider the notability of persona in a single general way, kindly have a look at this too David Paciocco, Bradley W. Miller, Alison Harvison Young, David H. Doherty, George Strathy, Frank Marrocco, Sarah Pepall (single line article), Faye McWatt. All of them are notable only because they hold the particular office. But it doesn't mean that, they are doing nothing to the society. It is only because we have very less contributors in the area which is too boring and complex. Especially to contribute about persona is much more difficult comparing to other subjects and that may be one of the reasons for less or inactive contributors in this area. Moreover, if am not wrong, since I started creating articles about the judges of Kerala judiciary, there were very few judge's articles and that is the major reason for major contributions are made by me only ha ha. I am trying to do my level best and will continue as much as possible to expand/create the articles. Answer to your earlier point, Does the Kerala state judiciary has any interest outside Kerala?, yes of course and you may not be aware of it. That's why I called it as boring and complex subject. I think I am the only contributor concentrating particularly on this subject. Hope you got my point and appreciate my effort: DreamSparrow Chat 04:24, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
