Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Freddie Mercury Re-Nomination

Voting period ends on 18 Oct 2024 at 00:50:12 (UTC)

Reason: Probably the most high-quality image of Mercury, in which he is performing live in one of his famous flambouyant outfits in 1977. This is one of the best images of Mercury (once nominated 14 years ago but not promoted). I believe this is an interesting photo, which really captures Mercury's well-known energy in his concerts

Comment – I'm okay with overlooking the darkness, given that this kind of environment is where Mercury made most of his public appearances, but it seems like no part of the image is fully in focus. But for that, I'd support; it's a very dynamic photo and the scan quality is high enough to get the film grain. Moonreach (talk) 15:07, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
