[Oliver109]

Any opinions hombres?

[Asten]

Can pass in balkan.

[aherne]

There is no similarity to Irish, but they all look European. As individuals they pass very well in Balkans...

[Diego Garcia]

Balkanid with some turanid.

[Lozano]

It seems there is a majority of meds (I mean sudacas and morrocans according to cv)... :eyes

Well, that could be the first impression, but the pic marks clearly the balkanid+turanid origin of most of the individuals on it, despite its exaggerated lightness.

Do you mean from Rumania?

[Tenma de Pegasus]

White brazilians, very similar.

[Latinus]

White brazilians, very similar.

Yeah.

[Davy Jones's Locker]

Mediterranean seems dominant.

[Avicenna]

Picture is at a distance but based on image I would say maybe 1 ( woman on the far left ) could pass as Irish / Welsh .

1º Very bad lighting.

2º In the last row, there are 3 mixed race persons. I am sure this is a school in a capital of province. Look for rural schools and you will find more "welsh/Irish" passing persons.
There is another 1-2 mixed raced in the picture. The guy with the blue shirt is non-Spanish (or non-Galician) for sure. And 3 of the girls behind him are the others that are mixed for sure.

Again, people with non-light features look more ethnic than what they really are if there is bad lighting. It will also happen with Med looking brits.

An example of the differences in how people look with different lighting conditions:

Dark contrast, bad lighting:

[Gallicus]

Don't look Irish/Welsh at all. But many could fit in Brittany, which is oddly mostly Atlanto-med.

I only see one person in that photo who looks quite mixed race and that is the girl in the front row 4th from the right, the rest all look normal for western Iberia though darker than Basques certainly. Here is a futbol team from Galicia https://cadenaser00.epimg.net/emisora/imagenes/2016/05/23/radio_ourense/1463996971_196663_1463998817_noticia_normal.jpg

[XenophobicPrussian]

I also count 4, up to a possible 6.

[gixajo]

Answering the question of the thread, in the first image individually very few could pass as Irish, and of course as a group very very very difficult, but I have never been to Ireland, so my opinion is not very formed on this matter.

I doubt very much that there is anyone who can differentiate a Basque women's soccer team from a Galician one by using pigmentation as a way to differentiate them..:D

In the second photo as Irish I do not know, but I think there are more individuals who could pass in the British islands, what do you think?

90% of Irish can pass in the British isles and vice versa so i would say perhaps 5 can pass in England, the Galicians are nothing like the Irish in reality so it would not be surprising if Irish phenotypes were no more common there than in Romania.

[gixajo]

I am not sure if they are exactly the same persons that those that are in the OP image, individuals photos from the Facebook site of that team:

https://i.imgur.com/SRHXfhW.png

Not many British isles types, but 2-3 maybe could pass well and 2-3 not so typical but "passables"?

But totally aliens in BI, how many? 4-5??

I would say that 100% of Irish pass in British isles, because Ireland is one of the British isles (at least I understand British isles as Great Britain&Ireland isles& small isles around these two), unless you are saying that there are 10% of the Irish who do not even pass in Ireland ...:D

I think most people judge only by taking a general look at the pigmentation of the group, and not so much at the facial features.

[TSR3226]

Portugueses.

Out of that set 7 can pass in Britain but only 2(second from left in 2nd row and 3rd from left in 3rd row) look British if you get where i am coming from.

[gixajo]

I will open thread with a poll, because I have a doubt about "Irish" features.

The guy with the blue shirt from the left I am 99% sure he is latin american mestizo

Don't look Irish/Welsh at all. But many could fit in Brittany, which is oddly mostly Atlanto-med.

Brittany, France? Maybe, but in Normandy not at least as a group, if you look at the photos of the schools in Normandy, they look very different from these.

8 of them can pass in Normandy, they have a point i think.

Of course they would but not in a group.

Really?
IMHO those young Bretons (from a high school in Vannes) are closer to insular Celts that to Galicians:

11 of them can pass in Iberia including the ginger guy at the bottom imo.

You are right, they are a bit lighter but still they would not look like foreigners in Iberia.

[Ouistreham]

No. There are indeed in Brittany more dark types than location and genetics would suggest, but they are definitely on the Alpine side (which, I admit, is somewhat counter-intuitive), especially among women.

They look really different to the British, could even pass in a Balkan nation imo.

Definitely not in Normandy.

Those are indeed closer to the British, but as I whole I found Brittany much darker and med than this pic suggests. There are several Bretons I met that I first assumed to be of Iberian descent.
The following thread is in line with that I've noticed:

I may be wrong though, I know Normandy much more than Brittany.

From the photos I saw and comparing the groups, the Spanish pass better in Brittany than in Normandy. Despite the Bretons being genetically very close to the British they still look very dark compared to them.
