Original – Elliot See during water egress training for the Gemini 5 program.

Reason: Was eyeing this for restoration, then realised it didn't actually need any. A fine, clear photo, not perfect, but good for the 60s.
Articles in which this image appears: Elliot See, astronaut
FP category for this image: I believe we usually put astronauts in Wikipedia:Featured pictures/People/Science and engineering?

Oppose I don't think this makes a significant contribution to the article and it's an ordinary image. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:41, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- @Charlesjsharp: I think it's, by far, the best image of him as an astronaut. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 6.7% of all FPs} 13:38, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure it is, but not FP quality for me. A training pic and poorly composed. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:13, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

My opinion about the EV and composition, he was a pilot in training to become an astronaut. He died in a training accident. This photo shows him in action, in training, in his environment, in the middle of a bunch of training hardware. This image has good EV in the article and fits as good as any image can.

But his death was not related to this aspect of training. Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:47, 27 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Charlesjsharp and Bammesk: It's a judgement call. Neither response is wrong. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 6.7% of all FPs} 22:10, 27 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
