Comment – In contrast to her saucy friend Frances, who's about to be promoted, Mattie looks like she should be making cookies for her grandkids. Sca (talk) 15:09, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. Brandmeister^talk 20:00, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Sca and Brandmeister: That appears to be consistent across photographs of the two. Compare the other two photos in c:Category:Mattie Edwards Hewitt. People do have different personalities =) Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 04:01, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Don't we though? My comment was simply an observation, not a critique of the nom. However, I do think the pic of Johnston is more interesting due to her apparently feisty personality. About this one I'm neutral. Sca (talk) 13:25, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

While I certainly like the other picture better, I think it better to judge based on the subject, since I don't want to create a situation where certain subjects get left out of getting restorations and other work put into them because they aren't as exciting as other ones. I mean, we have FPs of fruit, after all, and I think she's more interesting than fruit. =) Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 15:30, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support – that hat. Vesuvius Dogg (talk) 16:08, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A massive piece of headgear, but due to contrast issues it's hard to see. Sca (talk) 15:33, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
