Oppose I think I'm going to be in the minority here judging by the support it got on Commons, but I don't see it as a particular good representation. The pit is reduced to a thin strip and the sharp lines of the runway somewhat blurred by the puddles which takes it out of context a bit; her placement with regard to the jumping line is unclear (I'm not sure if she has taken off or is still approaching); her leg is obscured by her body and her prosthesis blends in, so at first glance at "normal" image size it is unclear what her disability is.

Oppose – A dramatic capture to be sure, but: Background clutter, loose crop, middling subject detail. Sca (talk) 14:49, 15 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support - If anything, the busy background has EV - it shows just how few people watch the sport. Look at all the empty chairs. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:46, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Agree with many of the points made above by Belle, and also I have a compositional problem with that distractingly bright orange cone right next to her hand. 81.152.224.92 (talk) 21:04, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
