•  Comment - That's a profoundly sad and striking picture, but what is that vertical line over her right shoulder? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:57, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

 Info The girl is sitting in the front of a small boat with a provisional mast. The sails were not used, but the mother was steering the boat alongside my boat and the girl started to beg for money. The rope is part of the sailing canvas. This was a shot from a shaking boat to another shaking boat and I could not make the girl move around to get a better sight on her. What struck me was not the snake, but the eyes of the pitiful child. This is, why I choosed to take a close-up with a somewhat small DoF that got the focus on the eye part. --CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 07:51, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

Understood, and I will vote to  Support on that basis. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:18, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

•  Strong support Has many technical shortcomings that I ordinarily would point to as reasons to oppose ... but being pretty isn't the point here. Great documentary photograph ... I cannot unsee the eyes-and-bridge-of-nose closeup I got when looking at it at full-res. Terrifying—are those bruises under her eyes from what I think they would have come from?
