Oppose It must have been intended, but I don't go for the cropped head. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:41, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per Charles, I don't understand why this cropped head is special --Michielverbeek (talk) 21:39, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per Charles. --Fischer.H (talk) 15:38, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very expressive portrait. I also like the postprocessing. While cropping the head might be less common in other fields of photography, in portraiture, it's totally accepted (and yes, intended). I suggest studying the visual language of other fields of photography than the ones that are most common here (church interiors, trains-in-a-landscape, wildlife, architecture, macro). Photography is so much more… --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:31, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed! -- Julesvernex2 (talk) 18:38, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support Have to confess that I prefer complete heads, too ;–), but Frank has convinced me – this is considered a legitimate composition in portraiture. --Aristeas (talk) 16:14, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The issue isn't that there's a cropped head, but rather this crop, which is [to me] like the "what not to do" section in Jules' link above. I think if this shot were framed to be tighter around his head, or if he weren't looking upwards, it might be ok. In other words, the combination of the other three crops and the pose makes the top crop look strange to me. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 03:36, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose per Rhododendrites. The arm crop makes you wonder about why the head was cropped. It looks like the photographer had some idea that felt more important than the photo. Daniel Case (talk) 02:38, 21 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I'm sorry but the top crop is disturbing to me, as mentioned about. If the focus would have been more on the head I could have come to a different conclusion, but cropping off a bunch of the head and showing the arms doesn't work to me Poco a poco (talk) 12:02, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
