  • Oppose – Substandard detail due to shallow DOF. No faces to show "passion" cited above. Sca (talk) 14:38, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Sca. Low technical quality. sst✈ 15:30, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose There are no faces in the picture to show the aforementioned "passion". FreeatlastChitchat (talk) 04:34, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Sorry, per above... Nothing about this picture screams "Passion", and could be anywhere in the world at any time - nothing to show this is actually an Arbaeen procession... gazhiley 10:41, 11 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
gazhiley: Such scenes are seen only during Arbaeen procession. Btw, that the man is sitting on the way of pilgrims clearly shows his passion. Mhhossein (talk) 12:07, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Unidentified groups of people walking along a road, while a street vendor offers wares? No, I would say scenes like that happen all over the world sorry Mhhossein... gazhiley 16:20, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Only in Arbaeen procession you'll see a man sitting on the ground holding a plate of dates on his head. his is not a vendor, no vendor puts his goods on his head! This act is done just to respect the pilgrims. Please read this text. Tnx --Mhhossein (talk) 16:30, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Mhhossein I did not know that they had arbaeen in Ghana lol. For if this style of vendor is exclusive to arbaeen the picture I linked must be from arbaenn. btw the ghana girl is carrying fruit in four badass tiers like a boss. she beats the puny date guy by a mile .

Sorry Mhhossein it just looks like a guy sitting down selling food. There is nothing in the picture to show he is providing them free, and I'm sure somewhere in the world someone has placed a plate on their head other than just here. Either way there is still nothing to indicate that he is "passionately" sitting down. gazhiley 17:56, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
gazhiley Yes you are right there's no evidence to show the food is free. I'll write more about it on your talk page. Mhhossein (talk) 18:09, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose – Unfortunately the image fails to provide suitable context for what is going on. Miyagawa (talk) 19:18, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
