Original – President Nixon greeting the Apollo 11 astronauts in the Mobile Quarantine Facility, after successfully landing the first human on the moon.
Reason
Iconic photo; unfortunate blur in the bottom right, the rest of the image is pretty good though considering how hard it can be to photograph shiny things with humans in the image.

  • Comment – Historic moment, but image composition is also marred by people-jumble behind Nixon, who is visible only in profile. Sca ( talk) 14:04, 29 April 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Support – Emotional image with historical significance and interesting context. Photographically average, but very interesting nevertheless. Steevven1 ( Talk) ( Contribs) ( Gallery) 20:53, 7 May 2018 (UTC) reply
