I actually tried to see if I could recognise any of these officers in the news reports of the interactions with the protesters, but wasn't sure. Regardless, this is a pretty good quality photo. I have provided an edit which addresses some possible issues. Corrected what looks to be a tilt, but hard to get it right as that fence behind isn't level - I took the verticals as being vertical, but the horizontals still tilt, so perhaps it's on a slight hill. Also did a bit of a correction on levels, backed off some highlights and sharpened it (it looked a bit soft). There are some blown highlights, the worst being the face shield on the 2nd policeman from the left. There's also quite a lot of blown highlights in the green channel on the reflective vests but I don't think that's too much of an issue. Have also transferred my edit to Commons (hope you don't mind). My biggest concerns at FPC would probably be that the size is getting towards the small size, and while it's quite informative it's not that dynamic, i.e., it may have been more exciting with a bit of action going on. Nonetheless, possibly worth giving a try. --jjron (talk) 07:06, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, thanks for taking the time. It was in fact on a slight hill. If the image is too small, I have the original in 10 megapixel quality (3456x2304). What would be a good size to get it to? --Simpsons fan6607:41, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
D'oh! I didn't know whether this was a crop out of an original or just a downsized original. They generally say 'the bigger the better', but plenty of FPCs still pass at around 1600 x 1067 px, so this isn't that far below that - it certainly is within requirements (minimum size is 1000px on at least one side). If it's downsized I suspect the original may be a bit soft even after sharpening (that second policeman's face in particular almost looked to have a slight motion blur, though not sure at 1/500s shutter speed), but that could work against it. Just out of interest's sake, what lens were you using? --jjron (talk) 13:16, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The camera's not too bad, but it's possibly just a kit lens, which don't do the cameras justice. Personally I would suggest to nominate the edit if you want to nominate one, but it's up to you to decide. --jjron (talk) 08:37, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
