Original – Surface supplied diver on diving stage, with USNS Grasp supply ship off the coast of Saint Kitts island, Caribbean.
Reason
Well done photo of surface supplied underwater diving, In a single frame it shows diver(s), riding stage, supply lines, ship and crew. Lead image in several articles including a featured article. The pixel count isn't high, but I think the encyclopedic value makes up for it. The cloud highlights are blown, but that's immaterial and almost impossible to control in a fast moving action shot (can't really do multiple exposure HDR, and a single exposure HDR would introduce underwater noise).

About the top left corner, I don't think it's a person, zooming on it there are too many sharp lines and angles. Bammesk (talk) 03:23, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • EV may have priority over artistic qualities, but it doesn't nullify them entirely. And I'm not altogether convinced this has any unique EV qualities that other, higher-quality images don't make up for. -- Veggies (talk) 19:02, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
