- Interesting, but too small. Yann (talk) 23:03, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
- Inclined to agree, unfortunately. Valued images on Commons might be a better place to recognise its value, but it's not really irreplaceable enough (as in, another photo can be taken) to justify an exception. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.6% of all FPs. 23:37, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
- Per Yann and Adam, it doesn't meet FP criterion #2, 1500 pixel minimum in height. Bammesk (talk) 15:04, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose per above (what Yann, Adam, and Bamesk said). The picture is small and its resolution is even less than 0.5 MB. – Hamid Hassani (talk) 04:02, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
