Grainy black and white versus full greytones

The grainy black and white is much poorer quality versus full grey tone image. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 08:49, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I find that they're both of similar quality in terms of identifying him, but the one which was in the article since almost a year ago depicts him with his camera etc., and seems much more in situ. Much better, particularly since it's the choice between one non-free image and another. Anyone else have any thoughts? ╟─Treasury Tag►Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster─╢ 08:54, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I prefer the grainy photo as it is more interesting, showing the person at work. But is there some reason we can't use both photos in the article? Colonel Warden (talk) 08:56, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, they're both non-free, so using two is a bit overkill... but I agree about the grainy photo. ╟─Treasury Tag►sheriff─╢ 09:03, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I followed the link from Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Richard Arthur Norton (1958- )/Family History to see what the fuss was all about. And for once I agree with Colonel Warden: the photo of Byron with the camera is much more interesting, and better illustrates the article. Yilloslime ^T_C 01:46, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
