Comment - The original photograph is very good, though small, but when it was edited, somehow, some blue lines were put into the upper left corner. Those need to be removed before this photo could be featured. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:16, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

- Comment - It may be tough to confront, but she was 90 and alive, and perhaps she was really enjoying her life. I spent 2 years living in what Americans would call a "shack", with electricity only at night and no running water, and they were 2 of the best years of my life! My neighbors all worked very hard and very few had much money for luxuries, but almost all of them had enough food, and they were by no means unhappy all the time. And very few of them made it to 90. (Rural East-Coast Malaysia in the mid 70s.) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:44, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

- Support A very modern take on some of those classic Depression photos. For this reason I have resisted the impulse to say it would look even cooler in sepia tone—the modern color is part of the point (Also, if you're pixel peeping, take a deep breath before you look at the subject's feet).

- Support At first I thought I liked the cropped version in the file history better, but including so much of the roof has a very interesting effect. It makes her look smaller, and in combination with that enormous bed and her pose (with the feet not quite reaching the floor) she almost looks like a child. Love it! --El Grafo (talk) 07:07, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
