Original – Australian comedian and TV personality Brian Nankervis during a live performance in Melbourne

Alt – Tighter crop (perhaps works better in infobox)

Edit Masked noise reduction on background of original

Reason: High quality image of an entertainer actually performing. We have very few such images featured, most are posed portraits. Unlike many studio portraits, this shows some genuine personality. Previously unillustrated article.

Support original only. The one hand in the crop looks awkward. Jujutacular ^talk 19:28, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Question - is that a Roll of Honour behind him? Would seem like an unfortunate background for a comedian... --Fir0002 03:54, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  - Look indeed! Thanks for the welcome - hopefully the return will stick ;) --Fir0002 12:34, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - Not sure if it's a Roll of Honour or just a regular Honour board. Not really sure why it's unfortunate though regardless. --jjron (talk) 16:08, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Not really that great of a picture. Its noisy, his hand is out of focus... Its just not that great of a picture of him overall. Dusty777 (talk) 16:29, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hand is out of focus? How terrible. We'll never identify him now. --jjron (talk) 16:08, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support Well lit, good EV. --Muhammad(talk) 13:57, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support edit 1 The noise reduction makes the subject "pop" out more. I am not so worried about the slightly blurred hand. --Guerillero | My Talk 17:43, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
