Air Force One over Mount Rushmore

For Air Force One, this image is speckly, especially at high res, is a poor match for the vibrant colours of the craft (better shown here), the silver underside appears black and the background looks too dark. For Mount Rushmore, it is uncentred, blurred and taken from a poor angle. As a result, it is not adding much particularly to either article. Suggest delisting. smurrayinchester(User), (Talk) 18:21, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Great photo. Still features prominently on Air Force One article. --Fir0002 01:32, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep. Highly famous image of AF1. -- AJ24 01:10, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. The image is speckly at high res, but I don't agree with the other reasons. Metallic paint has to reflect something. The composistion is striking, and it's good on the Air Force One article. --GunnarRene 21:36, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Famous image of the aircraft, the speckly look is this thing called grain and almost all high res scans from negative or slide film has it. PPGMD 13:37, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Wonderful photograph. Excellent illustrative value. Fg2 21:39, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, it can't really be replicated and the quality isn't that bad. gren グレン 02:12, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Shows nice shine on wings noting how clean the aircraft is kept. -- Willtriv 15:18, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
