Wikipedia:Picture peer review/Evelyn Evelyn

 
Original - Amanda Palmer and Jason Webley in character as Evelyn Evelyn, a pair of conjoined twins. Evelyn Evelyn performs as a musical duo.

A compelling (and certainly eye-catching) portrait by Kyle Cassidy. I'm nominating it here for a second opinion- I wonder whether FPC may not prefer a portrait that focuses more on the faces of the subject, rather than the very outlandish clothing adopted by these characters. Unusual nomination, as, while Evelyn Evelyn is a band, it makes more sense to treat its members as fictional characters, rather than Palmer/Webley is crazy clothes.

  • I think it could pass at FPC if it were larger so we could get a better look at the people in it and their faces, as is I'd say probably less than likely. =\ --I'ḏOne 06:14, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Really quite small. The surroundings are nice for mood, but there just aren't enough pixels devoted to the people. I prefer this sort of portrait over a face shot, though, because Evelyn Evelyn are supposed to be conjoined twins. It's good, but not quite there.

  • I like the full scale of the picture as shown, for the mood and ambience. I think the close up of the faces is a lesser concern when taking the overall look and mood into account. It's fitting, considering the band is less about the actual musicians and more about a theme or backstory as they were performing. I think the photo - as is - works perfectly in light of that and sums Evelyn Evelyn up perfectly. Less emphasis sometimes need to be off close-ups of faces, because that gets rather boring and monotonous to look at.
