Original – Michael Marshall, Mike Hall and Alice Howarth, hosts of the Merseyside Skeptics Society podcast, Skeptics with a K.

Reason: Let's go with an unusual topic. I am fairly involved with the Skeptics movement in the UK, and Merseyside Skeptics Society are one of the most important groups in the United Kingdom after the award-winning Edinburgh Skeptics, who have excellent taste in speakers. Anyway! Conferences are a bit of a hard place to get good photos in, but I think this is a quite good one. The height differences affect the composition, but otherwise, it's quite good. Conflict of Interest note: I do know Michael Marshall a bit, and have been introduced to Alice Howarth. However, I am acting as my own person in this. I also know the photographer. Still acting as my own person, though.

Neutral - Technically quite good, but I'm not too sure on the composition. I'd have found it better with their faces more central, rather than a 3/4-length group portrait — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:00, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I suspect that this was chosen due to height differences between them. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 08:46, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. To me seems a fairly unremarkable snap of three people in a corridor. 109.153.225.51 (talk) 13:56, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support Good quality, notable subjects (they have two articles - that's good enough for me) and the poses they are displaying show character. Happy to support this... gazhiley 09:59, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I have to agree with the IP editor above. While useful, this image isn't of featured quality given the problems with its composition. Nick-D (talk) 10:29, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Composition is not FP: tallest or shortest should be in the middle, too tight framing, small distracting elements (exit sign, light over shoulder). They don't seem sceptical about posed photos... --ELEKHH^T 06:06, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
