Comment I think some counter-clockwise rotation is needed. --Julian H. (talk/files) 15:20, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Strange and confusing looking background, just like you painted over half with a blue/white color. There is a bit ca that is easily corrected and a dust spot above his left hand. --Uberprutser (talk) 19:34, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support -- I like it very much despite the unfocused foreground (at the bottom) and the strange looking background. I like the composition and the human expression. Image quality is good. Alvesgaspar (talk) 10:21, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Actually, I don't find the background strange at all: That's most probably some kind of fortification made of sandbags and the like and imho provides additional value. Could someone who knows what kind of gun that is please add that to the description and/or place the file in the appropriate category? --El Grafo (talk) 15:12, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Great picture, the background says "This was not taken in the studio" - which is somehow quite important when speaking about war photos. --Aktron (talk) 10:53, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose We don't need more war and guns till the Kzinti come. B.p. 11:11, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as per B.P. Low educational value. Yann (talk) 07:00, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative edit

Info I add a other version, crop and adjust color balance a bit. (I am not sure how to insert a second version here, if it not done well please correct it.) --Slick (talk) 20:35, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose -- The original is better Alvesgaspar (talk) 12:00, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
