- Response How often do you have photos of these kinds of events about the 1960's that is also freely available? --Theparties (talk)
- All the time, when it has to do with the US government. If you want group photos from the 60s/70s that are also high quality, check out our images of the Apollo crews. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:52, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose At the risk of seeming harsh, this is a pretty poor photo - it's not level, the subjects are looking away from the camera (with a couple in awkward poses) and there appears to be a clumsily removed digital watermark or something on the roof behind the official party. I don't think that this has much EV, and the technical standards are terrible: goodness knows why it was ever published given that this is the kind of image most photographers would chuck out.
