An FP image doesn't always have to be perfect - this is one I find fascinating. Its not often you get the chance to take a contemporary photograph of an 18th century philosopher. Bentham, father of utilitarianism and co-founder of University College London, left his body to medicine with explicit instructions for how his remains should be preserved and put on display for the benefit of future students. Photo by Michael Reeve. - Solipsist 10:17, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)

- Oppose. Fascinating indeed, but can't go through on that alone. ed g2s • talk 16:04, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Oppose. A poor photo of a good subject. Asymmetry of the doors is ugly, as is the weird perspective (how much wider than the bottom is the top?) The composition looks hurried. Did you have a problem getting him to sit still? -- GWO 14:12, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Oppose. A delightfully weird subject, but this is an egregious snapshot. Denni☯ 16:59, 2004 Nov 15 (UTC)
- Oppose. photo is off centre and doors distract. On an unrelated note, why? Cavebear42 17:46, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)

- Oppose, nice subject, but composition lacks. Maybe a close up would be better. [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|(talk)]] 12:35, Nov 20, 2004 (UTC)
