- Reason
- Hey, guess who's ill? ...Yep. Have a lot of time to work today, so put, probably about 4-5 hours each into three images and did basically nothing else. Fun! But, on this image: It's a woman doing something of note: Delivering a request for suffrage to the White House (seen behind her).

- Support as nominator – Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.1% of all FPs 07:35, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment – Too bad about the shadow. – Sca (talk) 13:07, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
- I don't see how it's avoidable, though. That was an era of hats. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.1% of all FPs 16:39, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
- Did they know about reflectors in those days? – Sca (talk) 14:01, 18 October 2019 (UTC)
- Would there be any merit in applying an S-shaped contrast curve to increase contrast on the face, which seems the most important part of the photo and is currently rather low-contrast? Or is that too much meddling? TSP (talk) 15:28, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

- Support I don't like the shadow either, but EV seems pretty good. Geoffroi 22:21, 18 October 2019 (UTC)
- Support – EV, probably as good as it gets quality-wise, for this subject. Bammesk (talk) 16:36, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
- Support – EV is good and quality fine - might be possible to bring out contrast on the face in an edit, but I don't know how the community here feels about that? TSP (talk) 15:28, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Sca, TSP, Bammesk, and Geoffroi: I've played around with a few things, and think I can up the contrast in the face slightly, but light hair, light-coloured eyes, and light skin all come together here a bit. I'm going to upload a tweak. Note that more extreme adjustments were running up against the limits of the film, and looked awful.

- Weak support – I do like the ribbons in the wind. – Sca (talk) 12:21, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- Weak support because of the shadow. MER-C 18:22, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
