Appearance
Well, I've never thought of nominating an image for FP before, but this image has always struck me as an evocative portrait. I just noticed the absurd number of articles in which it appears and it is decent resolution, so was wondering what people think of its chances.
- Articles this image appears in
- Africa, Black people, Sub-Saharan Africa, Indigenous peoples, Khoisan, Hunter-gatherer, Historical ecology, Haplogroup A (Y-DNA), Survival International, Indigenous and Tribal Populations Convention, 1957, Georgiy Starostin

- Unfortunately, most of his face is in shadow. That would probably be enough to prevent it from passing at FPC. This is such a good picture, though. It would probably be a shoo-in for VP. Makeemlighter (talk) 07:44, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- Caption could explain what the pole-shaped object behind him is. Spikebrennan (talk) 13:33, 2 September 2009 (UTC)\
- Thanks to you both for your feedback. Unfortunately, I don't know if that stick behind him is anything other than a stick. - BanyanTree 15:15, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
- Given the image page caption: "A San (Bushman) who gave us an exhibition of traditional dress and hunting/foraging behaviour" I assumed it was probably a spear. --jjron (talk) 08:42, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
