* '''Support as nominator''' [[User:Enuja|Enuja]] [[User talk:Enuja|(talk)]] 01:21, 5 January 2008 (UTC) I support the original; the sharpened edit does not improve the image at all, as far as I can tell. It does look an itsy bit sharper on the people in the street, but some of the building ledges have artifacts, and the smoke is honestly essentially indistinguishable between the images for me, except that the edit might have some of the grain blotted out. I was flipping back and forth between images at full resolution, and in much the space of the picture, it was very difficult to see a difference. - [[User:Enuja|Enuja]] [[User talk:Enuja|(talk)]] 22:47, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

**Good thought; that was one of the things I experimented with during cleanup.

Original - San Francisco Mission District burning in the aftermath of the San Francisco Earthquake of 1906. Image taken on a rooftop near the fire by H. D. Chadwick.
Edit 1 - The image has been sharpened and as much noise as a result has been removed
Reason
User:Durova nominated it on Picture Peer Review, praising the danger of the circumstances of the picture taking. It very well illustrates the fire section of the article, and it is of high resolution.
