Oppose may be a "valued image" because it´s taken on the moon, not convincing as FP or even QI --Arcalino (talk) 15:51, 22 March 2013 (UTC)- Oppose per Arcalino. Kruusamägi (talk) 17:30, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

- to "opposers": you know, the cameras, used in Apollo mission, were mounted on the chest of the austronauts (like this). They had NO viewfinder and only one button -- shutter release. The rest was automatic, because an astronaut is very limited in motion by the space suit; giant gloves, inflated with air from inside are a big problem for hands. Taking a photo in such conditions is not a simple task. You should not compare this photo to some shots of, say, sunsets, taken on the beach with digital camera at leisure time. This image is 40 years old, however of brilliant technical quality. Maybe it lacks in composition, but it depicts unique moment. --Ximeg (talk) 10:20, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
