Original - Dusky Dolphins show at the Marineland of the Pacific in 1962

Reason: wow factor, high quality for a 1962 picture, decent EV for both the dolphin and the closed tourist attraction

Oppose. Yeah, it's good for its age, but it's not good compared to what is available today. This same show was being offered until very recently, so I don't really see why we should promote something that is comparatively low quality. J Milburn (talk) 11:41, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- comment the Marineland was shut in 1987, I wouldnt exactly call 24 years ago very recent, digital photography wasnt exactly prolific in 87 in fact first consumer cameras werent on the market until 88. Gnangarra 05:22, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Unless these dolphins are no longer kept in captivity. The image may be somewhat dated, but the subject is most likely not, making a modern photo possible and desirable. Jujutacular ^talk 17:50, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
