Reason: A really nice image of a notable recently-launched author. One of the best from Rhododendrites's BookExpo photography of the last couple days. I was worried because of a couple distracting elements in the original photo, but they cropped right out with a really nice photo left behind.

- One could relatively readily edit the top one out, but I worry that would be misleading. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 6.6% of all FPs} 03:29, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Thanks for the nom, Adam. Still going through all the photos from this event! :) — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 01:54, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – sorry but I think there is a better picture of her in the article: This one, it doesn't meet the 1500px requirement but IMO is a better depiction of her. Somehow her expression in the nom image is a bit unusual (or perhaps uninteresting). I know it's a subjective thing but that's just my opinion. Bammesk (talk) 02:16, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
oppose as above - distracting text in the background. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:00, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above. MER-C 10:05, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Despite the distracting background in the image linked above by Bammesk, I think the author's expression in it is much better. She just looks bored here. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:51, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per others.--Vulp here 12:23, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
