Original – Bronze statue of former Sen. Barry Goldwater in Goldwater Memorial Park, Paradise Valley, Arizona

Reason: Clear photo, acceptable size. Barry Goldwater was a very notable Republican U.S. senator, and the photo contributes EV to the article on him.

Oppose Too much head room at the expense of cut off base and no background separation (shot at large aperture). Also I'm far from convinced a bronze statute has much EV in illustrating a person. The statute itself would have to be noteworthy of itself for there to be sufficient EV IMO. --Fir0002 04:24, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This already closed, but I should note that this picture is ineligible to become Featured Picture, because under US copyright law, 3-dimensional pieces of art are copyrighted, and thus this photo is a derivative work. In fact, for that reason, it is also ineligible to be moved to Commons. howcheng {chat} 21:38, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
