Weak oppose Good color and light, but kind of busy. Daniel Case (talk) 19:46, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral I quite like it, but overall too dark IMO -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:28, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Please add an English (or French or Spanish …) description, it’s an interesting photo but we need to understand what it shows. --Aristeas (talk) 12:53, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Basically, it gives the name of the woman and says she is in the village of Wukirsari in the Yogyakarta area (I don't remember what "Bantul" means, so I'm getting this by context and might be slightly off) and is a master of hand-drawn batik (batik tulis). In order to give a more exact translation, I'd have to look up Indonesian words, because much as a lot of people like to claim it's the same language as Malay, it's different enough to give me some trouble. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:23, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Thank you very much, Ikan! Now we know already much more about this photo. – From a map I get the impression that “Bantul” is a town (or a district) south of Yogyakarta. --Aristeas (talk) 07:56, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 02:20, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support - There are some things I wish were a little different, but to me it's the most interesting photo of the current nominations. The palette and light (brightly colored interior lit with a single warm light source in front of a foggy rainy exterior) evokes 1980s scifi. I'm sure that's quite far from what the photographer intended :) but it's an effective juxtaposition and interesting photo. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 23:07, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Rhododendrites -- IamMM (talk) 07:34, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support I'm torn on this photo. She truly is a master of traditional batik tulis - look at her pieces hanging on the left - and I really like this as a documentary photo. However, it's dark and hazy, and the only part of it that's even relatively sharp is her face. But many of her batik cloths are sharp enough to be viewed in detail. So overall, I am supporting per the above comments. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:31, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Interesting composition, but technical shortcomings. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:38, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Rhododendrites and Ikan. --Aristeas (talk) 08:19, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support After careful consideration, I came to the conclusion that this image deserves support, though it has some technical shortcomings. -- Radomianin (talk) 14:00, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
