Painting Thangka

Original - Painting Thangka in Lhasa, Tibet. In Tibetan the word 'than' means flat and the suffix 'ka' stands for painting

Edit 1 by Fir0002 - noise reduction and recovered some of the original Adobe RGB colours which get lost in the original (left out red areas as they seemed over saturated)

Reason

We don't get many people shots on FPC, and I think this one is really quite nice - as it is not only shows a painter, but a (relatively) unusual style of painting.

• Oppose both: Picture quality is much to poor. Both are not sharp enough, focus not set accurate. Just not enough, sorry. —αἰτίας •discussion• 17:45, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
• Oppose both The focus depth is distractingly narrow. Clegs (talk) 06:01, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
• Neutral The focus really doesn't bother me. The act of artist creation has been captured. I just don't particularly care for the composition (the placement of the head, and the way it is cropped, along with the dead space and side of the canvass on the right side.-Andrew c ^[talk] 15:55, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
