One soldier like a hunter, a sniper, but Euromaidan was a confrontation between forces and masses. In my photo the part of the our barricade is visible (the skeleton of the second burned-out bus), in the group of Berkut there is tension (poses, gestures), emphasized by oblique light, smoke and a torn piece of advertising. They are calm, but in readiness, the enemy is in front of them. But in the File:Euromaidan Kiev 2014-02-12-4.JPG there is no tension, they are relaxed, they even turned their backs, there is no hint of danger. I like photos with internal action.-- Ввласенко (talk) 18:59, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I hear you, but the soldiers look plenty threatening to me in the photo I linked, and more relevantly to VIC, they're a lot more easily visible at review size. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:27, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I really like this image, and want to support it if the right scope can be found. But I agree with Ikan that the other group image is more valuable for a scope which specifically focuses on the Berkut soldiers. I was browsing the other Kiev Euromaidan images trying to find a suitable scope, but at the moment there is a high number of images gathered into some fairly broad categories, so it's not easy to work out which images are most valuable for any given generic scope. --Bobulous (talk) 14:52, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
