*'''Neutral.''' Pretty iconic image, but agree that I'd like to see a re-edit. The hi-res TIFF isn't particularly great quality (due to print quality of original source), but it looks like more could be done with it. I'm not sure if this is available from another original source with better print quality. The blacks on this restoration have also been made too heavy. In fact I'd probably be more inclined to support a fairly simple edit of the TIFF with little more than a crop and straighten. --[[User:Jjron|jjron]] ([[User talk:Jjron|talk]]) 13:06, 5 March 2012 (UTC) |

- Reason
- A very valuable image of a historic event, which is used in many articles, with nice composition and dynamism that adds to the EV. Relatively high technical quality for a historic image.
- Articles in which this image appears
- Jesse Owens, African American, 1930s, Jesse Owens Award, List of Congressional Gold Medal recipients, Ohio State Buckeyes, Timeline of African-American Civil Rights Movement
- FP category for this image
- Wikipedia:Featured pictures/People/Sport
- Creator
- Unknown
- Support as nominator --Tomer T (talk) 11:07, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
Oppose-- There's more resolution in that LOC TIF. If restored and cropped, the resulting file should be much larger than the currently nominated image. Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:17, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
- Support edit, oppose original -- Much nicer. Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:23, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

The hi-res TIFF isn't particularly great quality (due to print quality of original source), but it looks like more could be done with it.
