- I know that's how the shot was taken, but don't you think that's a bit too much white space? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:24, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
- Far easier to crop than to expand. We could crop a bit if we wanted, but this is the "default", as it were. Adam Cuerden (talk) 13:55, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
- True, I just recall that you are (in general) opposed to such changes in restoration. I'd probably support a cropped version, but right now that's a lot of wasted space for a FP. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:11, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
- I dont know about the ethics of cropping historical images. From an aesthetic POV, the original looks good, from an EV POV, a crop would suit better --Muhammad(talk) 10:01, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
- In this case, where two images are shoved onto a plate anyway, and were obviously intended to be cropped somewhat, I don't object so much, so long as the approximate original is maintained. Adam Cuerden (talk) 10:26, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
- Alright, I'd likely support a crop. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:55, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, I can't edit this for a few days. Adam Cuerden (talk) 12:10, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
