Chien-Ming Wang[edit]

Original - Chien-Ming Wang prepares to pitch.
Reason
Another high quality, action-but-not-blurry shot of a notable MLB player. The only issue is the edge of one toe being cut off, but it doesn't detract from the EV or overall shot IMO.

  • Is this just my ignorance, or do all baseball player pictures essentailly look the same? Same stance, same framing... --Dschwen 14:26, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • For pitchers roughly this framing is going to give you the best EV on their pitching motion. Other versions you lose their legs or their arm is outstretched and you lose lots of other things. I have a more unique Allison shot that is I think the last of the FP quality stuff he has uploaded (that I've found, at least) which I'll nominate a bit later.

  • Support. As per the others, EV, dynamism, and quality. Mostlyharmless (talk) 04:47, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Agree with above...--Sabri76'message 11:48, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Cut off foot --Muhammad(talk) 14:37, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - I don't think the cut-off foot is enough of an issue, personally. –Juliancolton | Talk 15:49, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support - good, slightly soft though, and slight pity about the shadow across his eye. The cut-off foot is really not an issue. Stevage 02:34, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Oppose Not entirely in focus, lots of noise, cut off foot, potentially reproducible (not retired yet, but injured according to his article). — raeky (talk | edits) 07:39, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
