New Cropped Version
Cropped Version 3 Will this more evenly balanced crop satisfy everyone?
Reason
We currently don't have a lot of portraits featured and this one is up to the quality. Not sure about the enc. So go on and comment. It can also represent baldness.
Proposed caption
A portrait of David Suchet, an English actor best known for his television portrayal of Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot in the television series Agatha Christie's Poirot.

  • Comment I don't know, the crop on the right is a bit too tight, but I like a lot of the other photos in the Flickr photo stream. I didn't go through all of them (slow connection), but are any of the others free? ---Cody Pope 05:27, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support — Amazing quality. And while I do think David Suchet and Poirot rock, this is an unbiased supporting vote. The cropping is a bit odd, but it doesn't detract from the image very much at all. ♠ SG →Talk 09:36, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose crop 3 — The new crop (version 2) is fine. I don't understand the purpose of cropping away the rest of his suit, especially when it makes the picture even longer aspect ratio-wise. ♠ SG →Talk 00:18, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

*Oppose based on the poor composition ... part of his left ear is missing !this picture from Flickr is much better - Peripitus (Talk) 10:41, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm not sure where you got this idea from... But every source I checked says that a centred portrait is boring and the composition is much better when the subject is not straight in middle. Thank you for voting. --Arad 17:16, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
