- Comment "A bad picture of a very difficult subject is a better picture than a good picture of an ordinary subject." I would consider a burning plane yards/meters from the photographer a difficult subject considering the risk to human life involved and the fact that, well, planes don't crash on aircraft carriers every day, and people don't climb up on a fuel tank that could potentially explode to pull people out of burning planes every day. Can't you forgive the overexposed sky? FP is not QI+. The emotional response to a photograph should be considered, as well. – flamurai 11:17, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am very glad that somebody, but me brought that rule up. Thank you, flamurai.--Mbz1 (talk) 14:40, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I like historical shots, and can certainly forgive technical flaws in them, but the shot has to tell its own story with clarity. I didn't feel like this shot does a good enough job of that to be an FP. --JaGa (talk) 13:05, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
