  • Comment There are too many techincal issues – grain/noise, blown highlights, apparent lack of sharp focus – at this resolution to stand any chance of FP promotion, I fear. I'd suggest a downsample, which would cure all but the lost highlights and still leave a reasonable-sized image. If people think it's worth the effort, I don't mind doing the work. mikaultalk 09:25, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
