Wikipedia:Picture peer review/Ewaste-crtkid

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A kid is working with old cathod ray tubes

In comparison to other well-known e-waste pictures, the showed picture remains neutral and not overstated to the problem of e-waste transports to developing countries. Also the imaged person remains anonymous. (please see a bad example here: [1])

The picture was made in New Delhi this summer and it appears in Electronic waste

Comments:

  • It is a good image, I agree, but I think the composition isn't up to featured picture status. Also, I'm not using a terribly well calibrated monitor at the moment, but I'm pretty sure that too many of the highlights are blown. On the composition; I see mostly old T-shirt, and brick wall, neither of which are electronic waste. The fact that the shelf with CRTs is titled also doesn't add anything to the image, and is therefore distracting. I can see why an image of a person working on the electronic waste is preferable to a picture of a person sitting on it, but the overabundance of whites and underabundance of CRTs take away from the image.
