Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/TFS Training Exercise.JPG

Original - A firefighter walks to the scene of a training simulation with her gear.

Reason: Although I preferred the photograph Image:TFS Firefighter.JPG, during its nomination - voters said that they would prefer to see this image nominated since it included full-body and gear. This image clearly illustrates a firefighter in full gear, in the uniform of the Toronto Fire Services, including SCBA (that article uses the same subject for photo), helmet, identity card, rapelling rope coil, &c. While the detail is not ideal when viewed at its full 3700 pixels, it easily compensates in its lower sizes. The composition also helps highlight the firefighter subject, while not providing distraction or giving it a "cropped" feeling.

Oppose You might as well cropped right up to the firefighter, I have no idea what the background is meant to be. Dengero (talk) 22:39, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Rather than helping the effect, the bright background is very distracting. Clegs (talk) 22:47, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Irritating background, and her feet are missing. Not FP material - Adrian Pingstone (talk) 16:52, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - the background is mysterious: what is that? Galileo01 (talk) 16:53, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - It's likely just a concrete wall. Not a very good background regardless - way too bright. -- Grandpafootsoldier (talk) 00:41, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
