Info all by me. It's a dead tree in Black Range, New Zealand. Winter is over but summer is not here yet. I like the gloomy light, I think it goes well with the dead tree on the photo. -- Podzemnik (talk) 09:08, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Great picture, not so great editing. Too much clarity (or was it shadow recovery), there is highlight recovery but not enough, overall too light, etc. -- KennyOMG (talk) 15:36, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose what's the big stain in the center of the picture? - Benh (talk) 19:23, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose this version per Kenny/Benh. Seems like the issues may be fixable. The spot in the center looks like an accidental click of a dodge brush? — Rhododendrites ^talk | 20:48, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I withdraw my nomination @Benh, KennyOMG, and Rhododendrites: Hmmm sorry guys I haven"t noticed the stain. I'm not sure what it is, it's in a RAW file too. I tried to work with it but I'm not happy with the result so I'll drop down this one. All good, I have a similar image that I'll nominate later. --Podzemnik (talk) 21:07, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Undoubtedly beautiful but Uoaei1 is right about the horizon. Also not very high-resolution for this kind of shot, and not especially well named per Poco (although that's not a reason for oppose) - 'Galapagos Islands' is a very general title.

Oppose, sadly, per the FPX. But it really is a lovely pattern. It'd be nice if we had it in SVG. Cmao20 (talk) 21:34, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: Lovely pattern, but at only 1 megapixel it doesn't meet size standards

Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.

Oppose Please don’t take me wrong. Very great idea and work, well worth a full support. It’s just the prominent blurry area pointed out by The Cosmonaut. Makes it virtually impossible to use this photo e.g. for a book cover. Too bad. As soon as this is fixed, I will be more than ready to switch to support (notification would be great so I don’t forget re-checking). --Kreuz schnabel 23:26, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Artistically speaking: Great subject, composition, colors, lighting, mood – love it! But unfortunately, technically speaking as a focus stack it's a fail. There's some more blurriness in the foreground at the bottom right that would be easy to forgive. But FPC is for the best of the best and that one patch of blur is right on the main subject. It really is a shame though :-/ --El Grafo (talk) 14:38, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Good, dramatic photo but I'm not sure the quality is there at full size, there's a lot of 'blockiness' and lack of detail in some places. I think (I may be wrong) this is a smartphone shot, and such images unfortunately rarely make it at FP as the lenses simply arent' capable of capturing the shot at sufficient quality. Cmao20 (talk) 13:17, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Cmao20 – you did your best, but technically, it looks oversharpened, oversaturated and over-contrasty. As for the shot itself, I don’t see much outstanding here. It’s a nice moment captured but nothing really special IMHO. --Kreuz schnabel 23:00, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment ~~Perspective?~~ Charles (talk) 17:21, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It's sharp, it's perspective corrected. But I wouldn't feature it. It's not a very challenging or difficult shot in itself (tourists probably shoot thousands of these arc de triomphe photos in similar quality, with same amount of cars, every day). I also wonder why it's more on the right side of the frame. - Benh (talk) 18:14, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I'm with Benh on this. It takes a bit more to take a wow-y or artistic photo of this place. One wild idea that immediately came to mind was something like taking an ND filter and make a swirl of the cars around it during daytime. (I'm sure there are plenty of car trail photos at night from this place.) --Cart (talk) 19:34, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I like this. It sort of makes me think of those video games where you see a map and one building turns into a giant beacon of light to say "this is where you must go." Clearly, this place is where one must go. :) It could use a perspective correction. Possible to correct without losing too much of the light? — Rhododendrites ^talk | 19:31, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please point out where the perspective needs to be corrected. The verticals are exactly vertical, however the picture was taken standing on a bridge, therefore not perpendicularly in front of the building. So the river "retreats" to the left. --Till (talk) 19:42, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The verticals are vertical indeed -- I should've looked closer before commenting. Maybe just the perspective/comp is just not working for me. Not enough to oppose, though. Thanks for the response. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 17:41, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Any object in a fog loses its shadow and looks flat. It looks natural IMO -- George Chernilevsky ^talk 13:48, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If you go out to shoot fog, why on earth would you then use dehaze on it. It's kind of against what you are trying to capture. But bringing up the shadows quite a lot on this would work miracles. I tested to push the shadows in 'shadow/highlight' to about 20-25 and the image popped out. :) Same trick I used on this and this. --Cart (talk) 14:26, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral sorry but while this is a great photo, it's processed with Adobe, and they just haven't figured out how to do demosaicing on Fuji data. They are notorious for their water color effects. Here, it shows quite well on the columns where the details are lost (and it would probably be more obvious had it been left full 26mpix size and not 15mpix). - Benh (talk) 07:47, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support Good composition and light. I agree it is not fully sharp at 100% but possibly due to long exposure (4s) rather than camera? A little sharpening, combined with a sharpening mask to avoid noise in the sky, might help. -- Colin (talk) 11:33, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how that picture doesn't fit in the scope. But what can I do, if you think a picture of a centered building at dusk is more special and shall belong to the best of Commons contrary to this. - Benh (talk) 14:50, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Benh, please avoid responding to criticism by in turn being critical of the reviewer's own work/nominations. And anyway, the merits/qualities of the two images are quite different and not directly comparable. -- Colin (talk) 17:51, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Colin: you are totally right. I just wanted to point out, probably not in the most elegant way, that the review is a bit unfair, and that Alexander's review could totally be transposed to his nom. - Benh (talk) 20:23, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support Commons is more than just a repository of identity-photos of buildings and people for Wikipedia. The leg rowing on Inle Lake appears to be an "iconic" thing, so lets have a photographic/artistic excellent picture of it. I could very much see this on the cover of a tour/guide-book for the region, which certainly fits within Commons scope. -- Colin (talk) 17:51, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support Reading about this on Wikivoyage "A boat trip on the lake is a must do. Unfortunately, it is also one of the biggest tourist traps in Myanmar...", I think a "trapped" tourist looking at the fisherman from within a fish trap is quite appropriate. :) --Cart (talk) 08:49, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's even worst than what you might think. There are heaps of these fishermen awaiting to pose for tourists (and expecting tips in return, obviously). That pose, we got after a tip. Everything was staged (in case that wasn't obvious) and even the direction of the boat, the timing... have a walk on the lake shore, you should very quicky get dozens of propositions for a "sunset boat trip" :) I wonder if these fishermen still do some actual fishing for a living. - Benh (talk) 17:15, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I see from the EXIF that a -23 vertical perspective correction was applied, which would make the edges lean outwards. Please can you reduce this.

Yes you are right, this is a long exposure, hopefully, that moving parts look blurry. --Wilfredor (talk) 19:59, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose for the daytime shot, support for the nighttime shot, if such a thing is possible. Both are good quality, and although not quite from the same place, it's near enough so that it's broadly OK for me. However, they both seem slightly lacking in sharpness at full size, although when downsized to 3000px across they're OK; if anything, I disagree a bit with Benh, as the night-time one actually looks sharper than the day-time one when downsized. Coupled with the slightly grey-ish and flat light on the day-time shot, I don't think there's enough to feature that one for me, although it's definitely QI. But the wow of the light and the reflections in the night shot means that one works better for FP IMO. Cmao20 (talk) 19:13, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Info I'm not going to pretend this shot is perfect technically, but still, I'm happy with it. I like the warm, soft sunset lighting, and I think the extra interest to the composition is provided by the couple looking on towards the castle in the foreground.

Comment per Ikan - I happen to have a Huawei P20 as smartphone device and for point and shoot-photography. In my opinion it does a way better job in keeping the details as the iPhone 6S in the above shot and works astonishingly great in darkness, but it's still away from the technical possibilities a bigger sensor of at least the size of APS-C can give you. --Granada (talk) 07:13, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

~~Oppose~~ sorry, but even after reading the caption and the linked source description page, I still can't get a real clue at how this was made. I don't think this is the Jupiter people expect and it is even likely to be misleading. It looks more like one of those tiny planet panoramas so my bet is that this is a "close up". I really don't want to have to dig up the internet to understand it. - Benh (talk) 21:11, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

But this picture is the worldwide winner of Wiki Loves Love 2019! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a02:1812:1432:8600:4966:eea4:e48d:6939 (talk • contribs)
Oppose Agree with others. There is noise, and strong chromatic aberrations. The very bright highlights on the window and floor are unpleasant. But a nice idea for an FP. And no, having won a "Wiki Loves..." contest is by no means sufficient for a picture to become an FP. --A.Savin 12:37, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I didn't know 'Wiki Loves Love' was a thing, but I'm glad this picture did well in it, as it's a beautiful photo with all the artwork and the rays of sunlight. But I agree with A. Savin; doing well in a 'Wiki Loves' contest is not a good predictor of what images will do well at FPC, and vice versa. Wiki Loves contests often seem to prioritise 'wow factor' over technical excellence, whereas FPC tends to be more exacting about image quality. Take the example of this, a dramatic photo that deservedly won 9th place in WLM 2018, but was (rightly) rejected at FPC. Cmao20 (talk) 17:41, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support The spectacle outweighs the quality issues. Per the guidelines, "A bad picture of a very difficult subject is a better picture than a good picture of an ordinary subject". Striking and well composed, with the divine light coming through the window -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:59, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support I don't see an issue here. To me I get somewhat of a sense of divinity in the picture. --Booth sift 03:16, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The scene and the compo is really good, I even like that the priest's face is partially hidden so he doesn't photo bomb the couple. But the technical quality is lower than it should/could be. For an FP you'd expect some basic post-processing and while the light through the window is great, it's unnecessary strong/harsh. I don't see this as falling under the "very difficult subject" category since weddings are probably held regularly in that church with the participants standing in exactly the same places looking lovely. --Cart (talk) 09:11, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question What about FoP of Museum models? --Llez (talk) 18:41, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If I understand correctly, this is not a photo of a physical model, so I don't think FoP would apply. The question to me seems like whether or not the uploader is the copyright owner and/or where specifically the license is documented, as there is no direct link provided on the file page. We have a category of similar images which likewise should probably have better documentation. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 00:10, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This a computer-generated reconstruction of a fish that lived ca 400 million years ago. So there is no way FoP could apply.

Only that museum has those files and they were made for an exhibition (that looked like this) and we are now trying to also set that up also to wikisource. After the last files have been uploaded we'll also deal with OTRS (but it should still be obvious, that those files are from the museum collection and the only reason they are now in Commons is that the museum has allowed them to get here).

Considering that we virtually have nothing similar to that in Commons and that this is pretty high-quality stuff, it would also make sense to get something featured from that selection to encourage the museum to upload similar stuff in the future. Kruusamägi (talk) 10:26, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Clearly a valuable illustration, but I don't think it's amongst the best on Commons. Considering it is computer-animated, surely the animators could have produced an image that had the whole creature sharp, rather than simulating a shallow DoF focussing on its eye.

Support Superbly done 360x180° panorama. a few small stitching error, but not easy to notice in my opinion and don't ruin the experience. - Benh (talk) 09:52, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support I can't spot any stitching errors. Well done for keeping it clean of tourists. Plenty resolution to see details in the wood and I like this interactive way of exploring an interior. I do wonder if it is a bit bright overall. I see DXR's photo is quite bright too. What is your recollection of the brightness? While I don't like sunlight through windows to be rendered grey (unless it is a grey day) handling the glare from them is probably the weakest part of this image. I know Diliff often liked grey overcast days for cathedrals, since direct sunlight is difficult and any passing clouds can make a stitched panorama fail. I have found in some of my HDR attempts, with 5 steps of exposure, that the brightest one can have too much glare and best just not used. -- Colin (talk) 18:08, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wilfredor, IIRC this has been asked before and I think it is ok. I think anything that would satisfy COM:OVERWRITE is fine (fixing dust spots, stitching issues, tilt) but major changes (significant exposure change, different projection, major crop) could be a problem. In this case, I suspect the jurors would not see the flaw nor notice the change. -- Colin (talk) 14:23, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Colin, Recently I had a conversation on IRC with others WLM participating users and commons users about the images in 360 degrees. Juries use the Montage tool and the photo is not displayed 360° and It's important that the WLM jury can access to the image description (page in commons) where the link to display it correctly in 360 degrees is located. I have created a task in Montage project github to add this feature to Montage and I would like you to follow it (by clicking on the follow button of the task), that way, someone could attend it, however, I don't think that this improvement is ready for the current WLM event, so it would be a good idea maybe to communicate this to the jury. --Wilfredor (talk) 14:28, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Caught sight of this on the QI page and it's the kind of image that, for me at least, makes you stop scrolling and go 'wow.' I particularly like it because it seems more carefully composed than a lot of these Milky-Way panoramas you see (IMO better than the ones that are already FP). It's a bit noisy, as one would surely expect for ISO 6400, but I think it's worth a feature, especially seeing it's by a Commons user. See what you think. Support -- Cmao20 (talk) 22:39, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Cmao20 for the nomination. There are some technical flaws here—noisy shadows, trailing stars, distorted stitching in some areas. The first two may be mitigated somewhat by the relatively high resolution and lack of critical information in the bottom third of the frame; there's nothing to be gained by zooming in at 100% to study a generic pond in the dark. I do believe this has significant merit as an illustration of Milky Way visibility in suburban areas. This was photographed merely 90 miles from one of the largest and brightest cities in the Western Hemisphere, so it's nice to show that deep-sky observing is often much closer to major population centers than many individuals believe possible. If there is enough interest, I could take a stab at re-processing this with an eye for FP standards, ensuring a more level horizon, and taking care of hot pixels (mind, some of the yellow-green "hot pixels" are actually fireflies!). Not sure there's much more to be done about the high-ISO noise... even after pushing the exposure another couple stops in LR and further locally brightening the shadows, I'm relatively happy with the retained detail and acceptable quality of grain. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 01:54, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Make any improvements you like, but it's already an FP to me, because I find it excellent at 300% of my 13-inch laptop screen. I also really like how the curve of the Milky Way is echoed by the curve of the near shore of the lake, among many other nice things. And I've also done some observation of the night sky in Dutchess County, as my girlfriend has sung in the chorus at the Bard Summerscape. There is a little light pollution from Newburgh and Beacon, but most of the sky is quite clear in good weather. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:53, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ikan Kekek: Thank you, and you've got it exactly right. Although dark sites in the mid-Hudson Valley get a little harder to find each year, they still exist, and one can catch some beautiful views of the night sky. I'm glad you've had such an opportunity. It also helps to plan out times when the galactic core is in a relatively dark "direction" from desired observing spots. Like you say, light pollution is particularly problematic in the POU-SWF-MGJ corridor, so early summer is often best for Dutchess County, before the MW migrates too far southwest. Feel free to look me up the next time you're in town! –Juliancolton | ^Talk 15:31, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question I don't know the best settings for this type of image, but ISO6400 has produced a very grainy image. Charles (talk) 10:37, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Charles, as already discussed on a previous nom of mine, we basically have 30 sec to shoot a picture with a wide angle lens (as it is the case here as well), and very little light. Expose longer than that, and the stars have moved too much and render as very noticeable trails. So that means highest acceptable ISO, and biggest aperture. Both are not quality friendly, but it's better to get a bad quality picture than a good quality nothing. And it's not so bad here. The noise is very well controled on the sky. The ground is grainy but acceptable I think. As mentionned, Some people shoot the foreground with lower iso and then composite the whole thing. - Benh (talk) 11:18, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your interesting explanation Benh. This is indeed why I nominated the image; the noise in the sky is really quite minimal, and although the ground is noisy, it's really not that bad considering the technical issues. The composition and the beauty of the motif make up for unavoidable technical failings to me. Cmao20 (talk) 14:49, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it would have not been possible to shoot this at a lower ISO unless I wanted to get into aggressive compositing, which in my opinion always leads to unnatural-looking results, even when done skillfully. My noise-mitigation technique relies mainly on using one of the best low-light cameras available. I'm sure one day, with ever-improving tech, we will be able to look back in disbelief at what was considered "acceptable" noise, but for now this is probably approaching the upper bounds of noise management at ISO 6400 (and then some). And while I could have earned another 1.3(?) stops of light by using an f/1.8 lens instead of f/2.8... have ya ever seen the way stars look at f/1.8? Yuck. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 15:31, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I could have earned another 1.3(?) stops > it's (2.8 / 1.8)^2 = 2.4 more light :) (square because we talk about area), so it's still a tricky question in my opinion :) - Benh (talk)

Stupid me, you talked about stops yes... (sorry) - Benh (talk) 17:07, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK for those wondering: 1 stop = 2 times more light = (f number / squareroot(2)). So going from f/4 to f/2.8 = roughly squareroot(2) = two times more light = 1 stop. So going from 2.8 to 1.8 = 2.4 more light = 1.2 stops. Hope I did get it right. - Benh (talk) 17:16, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It will be nice to have some more FPs from Dutchess County. I envy you this image ... down here in Orange County, there are not as many large lakes that could be used to get this view (and Newburgh is a bigger source of light pollution).
I'd also wonder what the view would look like to the north at the summer solstice ... would a 25-second exposure at that time capture any hint of lingering sunlight in the upper atmosphere that is normally not visible to the naked eye? Daniel Case (talk) 16:17, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Not a bad idea, still the viewing angle is too narrow. I’d expect the building and the central lawn area to be fully within the frame. Maybe you should learn how to stitch panoramic images from multiple shots, this could have been helpful here. Then, most of the image appears to be in dull lighting. Maybe you ought to brighten your images before publishing them – post-processing has always been an important part of the photographic work, even before digital imaging. Still there’s the image quality, the poor level of detail a phone cam is capable of. Have a look at some FPs and compare them with your work at 100 percent view to see what I mean. --Kreuzschnabel 18:19, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't agree with the idea of toning down anything white in a photo to a dull gray > Thank you! You are officially my hero Cart (but I can agree the light is a tad harsh, which is probably what Cosmonaut means. Wouldn't have hurt to use a reflector or wait for overcast weather) - Benh (talk) 14:47, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Benh (that would be heroine). ;) Me and Cosmonaut (formerly know as CCCP) have had these conversation about highlights before. Living in a dark part of the world I simply like bright parts in a photo if they occur naturally and can interact well with the rest of the photo for some reason. Btw, I forgot since you withdrew your bamboo photo. If you do a bit of color correction on the leaves to get the more natural colors, the white light doesn't appears so bright and "blown". I did a quick and dirty fix to check this: here. It does however change the whole color scheme in the photo and the Flickr/Instagram wow effect gets lost but it's more along the line of a FPC photo. I too like to keep cool light set by nature or play around with colors and things you can do in Photoshop, but FPC is very seldom the right venue for such experiments. (tried it, got burned) That's for sites more interested in artistry and further development of photography. --Cart (talk) 16:17, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I remember I was a bit frustrated by how conservative FPC is. I can tell you after a long break that I feel a difference (and it's good). I was also working on a fix to my bamboo photo (this is work in progress). I don't really get feedbacks on Flickr, so hard to know when you go overboard. Here I learnt a few mistakes I did. Thank you for the comment and the picture heroine :) - Benh (talk) 20:18, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, once you highlights are truly blown, there isn't much you can do; toning them down to dull grey is certainly not a remedy. Regardless, there shouldn't be much white to begin with on low albedo objects like vegetation, it's not polished metal after all. For stationary objects that are easily accessible, we ought to expect technical aspects to be handled more diligently. In this case, it's simply a matter of too much light allowed to enter the camera. Choosing a higher f-number would likely have solved that, while also improving the depth of field. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 02:01, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The Cosmonaut Not sure why you think a higher f-num fixes that... there are other ways to let less light enter the camera and as per below, this is the equivalent of shooting at f/11 on FF camera. - Benh (talk) 16:53, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Red channel seems to be blown (turning into blue towards the glare spots), and the slightly-out-of-focus areas have an unnatural look as if having been oversharpened.

Info I won a free ticket for The View from The Shard last Sunday. The weather was overcast grey all day but at sunset the sun popped out from the clouds and lit up some of the city. This view east takes in Tower Bridge and Canary Wharf, which is London's second financial district. At 244m it is high enough to see the river Thames snake around. Photography conditions aren't great with tripods banned and dirty windows that reflect white pillars. So a polarising lens made the sunset exposure even longer at 1/6s, handheld. The view is similar to what we see from drones, though no private drone would be permitted here. All by me. -- Colin (talk) 18:39, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support -- Colin (talk) 18:39, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral I know it would be unfair to oppose given my last drones shot. But as you said, the quality is a bit low, and the lighting doesn't give that special touch to this shot. It's even rather dull if you ask me. I wouldn't have used a polarising filter, but of those flexible hoods you attach to your lens and then stick to the window. This is very good at removing reflections. - Benh (talk) 19:21, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support FPC regulars may have seen a different skylight from the same station nominated a couple months ago, so a word on why I'm nominating another image from that same station: There are two different skylight designs in the station. The other one, which is the sole circular skylight, centered above the mezzanine, and this rectangular one, which in sets of three forms an arch over the tracks/platform. Many/most of the others of this kind are broken (e.g.). You can see this one is in rough shape, too. I find the design and deterioration pleasing to look at.

Oppose Several issues. Please note that the 'Non-photographic media' is now divided in several subcategories so you need to be more specific, I have fixed this for you. Bad categorization, just "Books" is not good enough, now fixed. Then there is the description, it says nothing about this work of art. It is clearly a silk embroidery made on a blue base fabric and pasted into the book in some way. That medium is not mentioned. (It kind of reminds me of those embroidered postcards from Spain that were so popular in the 60s.) So how is this Paul Jenisch connected to the book? Did he write the book or just compiled it? Did he make the illustrations, the embroidery, the original for the textile? The description says "Restoration: Ezarate". I can understand restoring a photo, but restoring an embroidery? The result is not as good as the original. The detail in the blue fabric supporting the embroidery is almost gone. It would also be nice with a file name that is something more than just a file number in an archive. --Cart (talk) 08:19, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Info Le Havre, France, totally destroyed in WW2, was rebuilt from scratch by modernist architect Auguste Perret who turned the city into a concrete wonderland. In 2005, UNESCO inscribed it as a World Heritage Site. I took the picture aboard a cruise ship - hence the rather unusual perspective.

Oppose Sorry, but the light and sharpness are not so good. --A.Savin 12:56, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the EF 24-105L isn’t the best Canon has to offer, true. It’s still decent imo. As for the light, I really disagree. You can’t beat a late afternoon sun. A little later and the shadows would become overwhelming, a little earlier and the light would be too flat. –Martin Falbisoner (talk) 13:17, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know the place, but all just appears washed out (including sky, grass, facades etc.) --A.Savin 13:44, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've tried to carefully address the issues you mentioned without changing the image's original character too much, @A.Savin, Basotxerri, Cart --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 13:47, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I’d happily support a version with a bit less sharpening applied. This is overdone, just look at the person walking in front of the container arc. --Kreuzschnabel 17:29, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, I just realized you uploaded a sharpened version, that’s why I’m saying the opposite of A.Savin :D That’s the problem of editing a nominee during discussion period. We’re talking of different images now. --Kreuzschnabel 17:32, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yeah, I definitely don't like the look of the current version. I'm not so impressed with the view either, though. UNESCO World Heritage or not, a lot of the buildings have an uninteresting sameness to my eyes, and I would oppose the photo as is. A crop on the right and left to encompass the church with the tower and the colorful sculpture and building with the clock tower might work. I'll try to mark proposed crops. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:29, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Apart from the crop, the new version is hardly better than the old one. The sky is washed-out. Many of the buildings are overexposed. Do you sincerely think that if you shot a picture in poor light, you still can "synthesize" good light in Photoshop afterwards?

And there is another question. Is the sculpture made of containers maybe too prominent in the picture? No FoP in France, you remember? --A.Savin 14:39, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No it's not. Not even 10% (probably closer to 5%) and the topic is clearly Le Havre's UNESCO world heritage downtown, so we can consider the "art" thing stands in the way. - Benh (talk) 16:27, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose There’s a dark halo plus a white seam around the shape, as if it was both over-tonemapped and over-sharpened. Level of detail doesn’t whow me.

Oppose I like the picture, there is much to see. But the quality is far from good. Maybe try a better lens. -- -donald- (talk) 06:30, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I don't think, it is a bad lens. The panorama shows a landscape with a distance up to 40 km and you can't get all pixel-sharp over such a distace (e.g. the Rottweil Test Tower - see annotation - in a distance of 35km is clearly visible !). On the right, you can see a flying bird. This bird can be easily identified as a Red kite, Milvus milvus. So I think the quality can't be too bad. --Llez (talk) 06:52, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support - This picture is 30,895 × 3,605 pixels. It's of great quality at 50%. Yet it's not good enough? It is for me. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:48, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Good quality but... a bit boring. --Peulle (talk) 10:49, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Not sure what it comes from – this image is entirely overcast by something I’d call sharpened unsharpness. The edges of areas are sharp while the areas themselves show too little detail. I added an annotation to the barn in the foreground which is just 500 metres away from the camera. Summer day afternoons are hardly the best time to take distant shots because the air is too uncalm with the heat. --Kreuz schnabel 17:22, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Oversharpened. Daniel Case (talk) 23:07, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose Immense panorama and I find lots of visual interest in it at full-res, but Kreuzschnabel is IMO correct about the lack of detail and the oversharpening at full size. Do you have the original RAWs? I'm surprised the quality is not a little better, although I guess it might be the heat-haze effect Kreuzschnabel mentions. Cmao20 (talk) 23:38, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose @Llez: , I think this overall is a good image. However, IMO it is somewhat lacking in quality and the composition could be a tad bit more interesting. Otherwise, I would have voted support. Sorry --Booth sift 00:12, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Info The pipes of the Walker organ in the Church of St Peter and St Paul, East Harling, which fill the east end of the north aisle.

Second highest pipe at the top -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:57, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Basile Morin, I can see why you might think that, but it is just the shape of the pipe. See this frame. You said "stitching errors" -- are there any more areas you suspect? Basile, I know you are still relatively new here, but most reviewers do not oppose for trivial defects (a few pixels in a 100-million pixel image) or for easily fixable defects. -- Colin (talk) 07:05, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK, then a lot of pixels yes but the subject itself, ordinary organ of a church with boring light, is less than average in my view -- Basile Morin (talk) 23:10, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question I wonder why nearly all of the pipes appear dirty, as if having been sprayed with something white from above. --Kreuzschnabel 18:09, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Kreuzschnabel I don't know. The stone columns in the church are very clean, so perhaps there was some spray when they were cleaned. -- Colin (talk) 18:19, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Ooops – really bad idea to not protect the organ before starting such work. --Kreuzschnabel 18:24, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    - Well, I'm only guessing. It is probably just chalky water that will wipe off with a wet cloth, but they'd need scaffolding to reach the top I think. -- Colin (talk) 21:03, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support Seems fairly uncontroversially FP to me. I can't see any stitching errors and if there are any, they are not sufficient to preclude my support given that they must be fairly small. Cmao20 (talk) 19:40, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm also surprised with the "dark upper part" reviews. That seems natural to me, so either we have different tastes (then no arguing) or some monitors are not properly calibrated (could be mine, I'll check).

Weak support - the detail and educational value is nice enough for support this well-done image, but the light (and perhaps the tight composition -- although I don't know what's just outside of the frame) takes away some of the wow — Rhododendrites ^talk | 21:38, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Rhododendrites, the organ fills the end of the aisle so there is nothing left or right in this plane we can see. At the edges of the frame are the walls on either side of the aisle. To the left is a window on the north wall, which would be distractingly bright, and to the right is an arch and column, which wouldn't be interesting or even perhaps in focus. You can see the context in this photo. This is about as symmetrical a framing I can get for a non-symmetrical subject. Thanks for the support. -- Colin (talk) 17:55, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry, while it’s a nice enough specimen, and a shame we apparently haven’t got an FP of this species yet but this isn’t it (1) for composition: bottom part of the plant cut off, subject hidden within tall grass straws. A setting as in File:Brodogory_natural_reserve,_Poland_(2).JPG would be much better. (2) Busy, distracting background. (3) poor technical quality – much noise, some oversharpening, many of the blossoms partly blown. --Kreuz schnabel 18:06, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It would be better if you used the right template for focus stacking: {{Focus stacked image}}. The 'retouched' is for when you, for example, clone out bugs or bits straws. Focus stacking is just compiling different dofs, not actually changing the image. --Cart (talk) 10:03, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Seriously, you really think it's among Diliff's best work? The donation box is disturbing, the windows are blown. --A.Savin 12:42, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@A.Savin: No it is not one of the best Diliff's interiors because all of them are already FPs. But his images quality is so high that even his mediocre pictures can easily compete with other authors pictures, therefore I think it is unfair to compare it with the Diliff's works only. This church windows are mostly transparent and are not fully covered with the stained glasses (good illustration of that even if these are not the same windows as seen in this interior photo), the day was obviously very sunny and so the light shines into the interior, however all the windows constructions are fully visible and are not blown out, so I think it is balanced. Other Diliff's interiors also includes light rays. Donations box is not a trash bin, so it does not disturb me - donations boxes are an integral part of the churches. -- Pofka (talk) 16:59, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak support Not IMO one of Diliff's stronger church interiors. I don't have it on my list of Diliff images to eventually get round to nominating, owing in large part to A. Savin's first criticism about the donation box, but also because of the distortion of the top lamp. The blown windows don't bother me especially as I usually prefer that bright white highlights are left that way instead of being artificially pulled back so they look grey-ish. So overall Diliff has done much stronger images; but ultimately, we are judging this based on whether it's amongst the best church interiors on Commons, not the best church interiors in Diliff's output. This image is not perfect, but it's very sharp as typical for Diliff's work, and depicts an important exemplar of Lithuanian Gothic architecture. Compared to this, a church interior which passed FP only last year, the image quality and sharpness are clearly superior. Based on those standards, I still do think this counts as one of the best images on Commons, so it should be FP for me; but it's not as clear-cut as most Diliff church interiors. Cmao20 (talk) 14:20, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Cmao20: Indeed. We must compare it with all the Commons pictures and not only with the Diliff's pictures. This church is one of the primary Gothic landmarks of Lithuania, so it is a very prominent object and this interior picture of it is easily the best one available in the Commons. Even in your provided Dillif's picture blue windows have that whitish effect and this Lithuanian one has a completely transparent glass windows, so the effect is slightly stronger, but is balanced and not blown out. -- Pofka (talk) 17:07, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I withdraw my nomination and btw, Benh, I've improving the perspective. If you still believe that it's below the QI bar, remove the QI stamp. I'd then consider to work on it again and renominate it for QI again. Regarding your comment "The horizon is curved, like what we find on non-carefully shot smartphone panoramas".

Oppose Interesting building but not a pleasant light -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:47, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To specify: the shadows seem orientated towards us, which means the sun is more in front than behind. Shooting against the light, that's probably why the colors look a bit washed out. Perhaps the best composition from that point, unfortunately the orientation of the sun is not very cooperative -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:30, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Striking photo even if much of the snake is unsharp. I'm a little confused about the author. The description says "Photo by Thai National Parks" and Rushenb uploaded it as "own work". Which is it or does Rushenb represent Thai National Parks? --Cart (talk) 16:18, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I thinks that they works(ed) for the "parks"; or that they got the permission to take photos in those protected restricted areas at the condition that they gives credits to the "parks". I don't know. But I have no doubts that Rushenb is the photographer and that the photos are "own works", the photo is also published at here and in full resolution in the flickr account of the uploader there. Note that the other uploads of that users (are all as good!) seems to have the same kind of text in the description. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 16:56, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Of course this is an impressing landscape but I don't think that this shot is one of the finest landscape shots. The light is rather harsh and there are disturbing dark areas in the foreground. I'm not very pleased by the composition either. The trees in the foreground on the left are disturbing, the whole row of trees in the front line block the image from the viewer, there is nothing what guides him into the scene. --Basotxerri (talk) 18:18, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - We've seen a lot of similar landscapes from Moroder. However, I find this composition very peaceful and would be inclined to support. That said, I'd prefer if you'd smooth out the sky just a bit. I feel this kind of view is proper to see at full resolution, and there are some subtle blotches and striations in the sky. Some of the trees in the middle background could have been a bit sharper, but that's not something that would affect my vote. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:20, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment What do you mean with smoothing the sky? —kallerna (talk) 18:49, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Eliminating the blotches and striations, in favor of hue/shade shifts without lines in between the hues/shades. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:28, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose This is a pretty good picture, but the Moroder pics of this region have set a bar as high as Diliff's church interiors, and it doesn't get over that bar. It just seems too ordinary, and harshly lit. Daniel Case (talk) 23:01, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose sorry Kallerna but I'm inclined to agree with the above. Moroder's images are better when we're looking at alpine shots on Commons. This one is QI definitely, but I don't think the composition is that great. It's nice, but no more, considering the strong material available on Commons. Cmao20 (talk) 23:35, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Moroders pictures? Is there a summertime picture of Cristallo mountain by Moroder? I really don't get your point. Featured by Moroder, has a midday sun, and the quality is also mediocre. Not saying it was not a good shot, I just mean that not every fp should be taken during sunset nor by specific individual. —kallerna (talk) 04:40, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, I don't think that picture is anything like as good as Moroder's current work. I would probably give it a 'weak support' today, because I like the composition but the light is fairly weak and the quality isn't perfect (note that it was promoted in 2014). He has better pictures in this genre, such as this or this. Ultimately my issue with your image is composition, not quality. The image quality is pretty great, however the composition just doesn't appeal to me; I feel like I'd prefer to see a wider panorama. I think it's your misfortune that you're competing in a genre where there's lots of existing very strong work. But of course not every FP should be taken by a specific individual, I have regularly supported your work before (e.g. this). Cmao20 (talk) 14:55, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Still, it's another place in another season. I get your point with wider panorama, thou IMO panoramas are never as good as individual frames. This one features wider point of view from the same mountain, and this is a real panorama from the same set. Anyways, thanks for the explanation. —kallerna (talk) 19:05, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

For what it's worth, the second image you link to is FP to me. Cmao20 (talk) 19:23, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Interesting place, but I'm not keen on that huge area of blown-out pavement in the foreground. Overall it's a nice sharp shot, but the blown-out area is pretty distracting, and I think it would be much better if it focussed entirely on the entranceway and if it was a symmetrical, face-on view of the doorway.

Comment Great map, very close to excellent. Data sources are listed and finally somebody remembered to specify CRS/projection information! I have some minor points, though, regarding the labeling: 1) "CANADA" has the same font specifications as "Vermont", making it look like just another US state until you realize it's all caps. Maybe make it a bit larger? 2) Automatic label placement rarely leads to satisfying solutions. Especially the labels for "Long Island Sound", "Fishers Island", "Long Island" and "Staten Island" intersect with the state border in an ugly manner. "Oneida Lake" would look much better if it was rotated by a few degrees clock-wise. Most of the smaller city names are difficult to read, as they intersect with roads and other line features. Manual placement of the labels could help in many cases (alternatively, maybe consider using label halos). 3) General layout: The placement of the zoomed-out map between the two legends is a bit awkward. The frame of the elevational scale is thinner than the one of the other two boxes. The distance scale looks a bit lost so far away from the corner – generally distances of the legend boxes to the map borders and each other need adjustments. I'd probably cut away much more non-NY territory at the west, north and east – The state is so awkwardly shaped that you still should have plenty of space for your legend boxes. 4) Weird: Canada looks exactly like non-NY US states with mountains and the same kind of half-opaque masking, but it has no roads, rivers or settlements. Maybe just make it plain grey then? Lots of little things and none of them reason enough to oppose, but that's the kind of attention to detail that I'd like to see in a featured map. I guess I'll stay neutral for the moment, hoping that some of them may be addressed … --El Grafo (talk) 14:51, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@El Grafo: Thanks. I have updated the map taking onto accounts most of your comments. 1) Increased the font for "Canada" 2) Tried to improve the labeling 3) Moved the legends. I prefer not to cut the map as the map limits are fixed and if I cut by hand I will loose the precision 4) Added roads and cities. I deliberately avoided to put this data as it adds 3-4 MB of data but it is outside of the area of interest. Anyway, I agree that the map is nicer like this. --Ikonact (talk) 22:10, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Very good map, but I'd like to be able to blow it up to at least twice the full resolution of 2,811 × 2,000 pixels and see a lot more details, topographically, in terms of names of bodies of water (rivers, lakes, etc.), and in terms of towns. Long Island is very strangely devoid of towns, when several more would have fit easily. (How about Huntington, Port Jefferson and some on the South Shore?) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:54, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ikan Kekek: Thanks for the comments. I would like to see also a higher resolution but Commons cannot handle the svg to pngs with higher than 2000-2500 pixels resolution. That's why I chose to use this resolution as optimal. I will try to add more details but I have to admit I find a bit difficult to understand the cities on Long Island. It looks like they are made of junction of several villages and this is not reflected in the geographical data I use for the map generation. I will try to work on this. --Ikonact (talk) 22:10, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I understand what you mean about cities in Long Island. There are counties, then towns, which are really sub-county divisions, and then the towns can be divided into villages and hamlets. That said, the village of Hempstead (as opposed to the much larger town of Hempstead) had a population of 53,891 in the 2010 Census and should definitely be included on the map. The hamlet of Huntington had a population of 18,406 in the 2010 Census. So basically, the terms "village" and "hamlet" have nothing much at all to do with population in Long Island. I think it's a real problem that higher resolution isn't possible. Is there anything that can be done about that? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:33, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support That looks like a nice map. I do agree with some point of El Grafo's thorough review, but I wonder if a fix wouldn't make it weirder. My complaint is that you should specify more widespread backup font for small labels (when I open the SVG in Chrome, the names are displayed using serif fonts, Times New Roman I believe). If you make it an SVG, I guess it's for people to use the SVG and not the PNG version rasterized on Wikimedia's servers, which has the proper fonts. I would also make "CANADA" bigger, to better emphasize the hierarchy. - Benh (talk) 16:53, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Benh: Thanks. all comments are welcome. I will change the back-up font to sans-serif.--Ikonact (talk) 22:10, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support Much better now, thanks! --El Grafo (talk) 13:39, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
~~Oppose~~ - I apologize for opposing this map on the basis that, apparently, this site doesn't permit higher resolution, but I think that for this to be justifiably an FP map, it needs a lot more detail. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:25, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes there's issue with using mediawiki's builtin rasterization process (I tried to render the map at 4000px width with no success), but the fact there's no prerendered output larger than 2000px has nothing to do with the map itself. Native 2811px width also available btw. If you use a decent browser, it should also render the svg properly for you to enjoy the tons of details in this map. - Benh (talk) 17:56, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To be clear, I think the map is insufficiently detailed for FP. Very few names of lakes and rivers are given, for example. I expect those on any thorough relief map. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:36, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That is just me, but if I want the names of every single item of a map and a zoom which reveals more actual details, I'd check Google Map (or OSM). That's what these are for. It would have been very cluttered at nominal size to label everything. This maps also focuses on NY state (as per its title). - Benh (talk) 18:53, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That's not my standard. This is. Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:24, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, this is also my standard for photos, but I'm still supporting the photos here. And, I'm not sure any of these topo maps are useful at some resolution without some details trimming. Totally not comparable. - Benh (talk) 21:10, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Ikan Kekek: Could you please provide the link to the NY state map that you like on the USGS site? I tried to find the NY state topographic map but with no success--Ikonact (talk) 22:03, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a free site. Results for a site search of "New York". Benh, I would be willing to accept less detail than in a USGS map. The issue is how much? You have a different answer than I to that question. Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:00, 10 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You're asking yourself the wrong question. Again this is no topo map. It serves different purpose. No one goes hiking with this, and no topographic map of the size of the whole state would illustrate an article about "NY State". - Benh (talk) 18:44, 10 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The question of how many details to include is always relevant in any map. As I said, the number of identified bodies of water is insufficient for me, and there should also be a few more towns. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:22, 10 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I would like to support this, as I have lived so much of my life in different areas of this map, including currently. But ... why does Interstate 86 disappear from the map east of Binghamton? NY Route 17 is now designated as I-86 all the way to the I-84 junction near Middletown? I can understand if the cartographer wants to highlight only interstate highways but ... Route 17 has existed as a limited-access route through the Catskills and Delaware Valley for years ... surely the map should reflect this?

Weak support - Thanks for contributing this to Commons. I want to err on the side of supporting, because it seems quite competently done and I don't think I've seen a user-created map at FPC before. I'm learning a bit from this thread (e.g. that svgs have fonts built in and that mediawiki has a hard time with larger svgs). My only comment is to ask why Jersey City, Stamford, and Elizabeth are in the same dark font as NY cities, while the other cities of NJ and CT are grayed out? — Rhododendrites ^talk | 13:57, 10 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To be accurate, SVG has no font built-in. We specify the font we want to use in the SVG (which is only a text file). If the computer rendering it has the font then it will be used. Otherwise, it uses a backup font (if specified) and resorts back to a default font of the renderer's choice, and amongst the ones present on the computer. The PNG of the description page are rendered on Wikimedia Foundation's servers and the text are outputted using the fonts there. If you look at the SVG directly, the fonts are chosen amongst the ones on your own computer. That is why it is always good practice to specify backup fonts which are widespread (Times New Roman, Arial, Courrier...) - Benh (talk) 18:44, 10 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Strong support This is the encyclopedic style of maps that have been really polishing off articles like en:New York (state), and have added there a level of professionalism and standardization that we were missing. The other state maps ikonact has made are also worthy of recognition here. My only comment/question with this specific file, is whether there is place or level of zoom to note the names to the two Canadian provinces, Quebec and Ontario. I ask just because the caption we use on New York (state) says "New York is bordered by five U.S. states, two Great Lakes, and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec." I'd be very happy to see this promoted.-- Patrick, _oѺ^∞ 14:02, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral Small detail: Between 2011 and 2015 Albany's population grew beyond 100.000. Therefore, it should have the same font as Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo. Also, Newark and Jersey City deserve the bigger font, too. -- Axel ^(talk) 06:50, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Axel Tschentscher: Thanks for the comment. I used the 2010 US census as reference. This is the most recent official census. I can use estimates from the US Census Bureau, but the estimates data shows that Albany has never reached 100 000. I agree on the remark for Newark and Jersey City font but this is a choice I made. A smaller font allows better readability as these cities are outside of the area of interest. Otherwise I think the map will be overloaded around New York. --Ikonact (talk) 07:53, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Info I had read about the conjunction of the moon and Jupiter on September 5 and I was hoping to catch them over water for some nice reflections. Thankfully it was a mostly clear and calm night when I came down to the fjord. Sure enough, there was a very bright planet close to the moon so I think I got it right. Please correct me otherwise. I also like that the moon is this one major sizzling bright light it so often is for us living here in the countryside, and not that bleak 'face' with features you usually see in photos. Even so, you can make out the ragged line, created by the moon mountains, between the bright and dark side of the moon. All by me, -- Cart (talk) 08:56, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Sorry Cart, I have doubts that this is Jupiter. My feeling is that it should be closer than this to the moon (hard to tell, is 23mm from the EXIF the FF equiv?). It is quite possible that we're looking at Saturn here. And Jupiter could well be behind the clouds, closer to the moon, to its left, and slightly under. - Benh (talk) 21:11, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

~~added note to pinpoint supposedly location of Jupiter. - Benh (talk) 21:13, 15 October 2019 (UTC)~~[reply]

It's 64mm in FF equiv. So probably it is Jupiter (would have been to close to be Saturn anyways in 23mm). Sorry sorry. - Benh (talk)

I have 44 shots of this scene taken during a 30 minutes timeframe with the clouds moving rather rapidly over the sky (plus a bunch of other shots in other directions). During all that time, this was the only really bright planet in the sky. Had any other planet been hidden behind these clouds, it would have been visible in some of the other shots. This is a straight from camera (I haven't processed them all yet, hence the rather blue tone the camera's internal image processor loves to add) taken later when the cloud had moved a bit. It's from a slightly different position so a light is seen here that was obscured by a cliff in the first shots. I was playing around with framing, time, format, etc. Did you really think I would go on a shoot like this and take only one photo? :-) --Cart (talk) 21:44, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't doubt you are careful enough. I just read a caption ("it is most likely Jupiter") leaving little room for doubt, so I help checking, that's all. I'm often too hasty, but I also often correct myself when I see I'm wrong, no worries ;) Sorry again for the trouble (if any). - Benh (talk) 16:26, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nah Benh , that's ok no trouble. I wrote like that since I think it's prudent to invite others to check if something is outside your area of expertise, especially when we have access to so many talented people here. It was only your implication that I hadn't checked the rest of the sky and under the clouds for possible other planets during the session that bugged me a bit. If part of a photo is hard to see or obscured for some reason, it's always best to just ask if there are any other versions from the shoot that can clarify things. No hard feelings. :) --Cart (talk) 20:08, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I don't know. The placement of the people feels random and not helpful to the composition, and I'm somewhat disappointed by the not very great sharpness and light. Useful for sure, but FP? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:48, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Unsharp areas and partly leaning verticals, see note --Uoaei1 (talk) 11:27, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It's certainly a useful pano, but the very grey and dull light, the distortions on the buildings and the lots of people make this some way from FP. Also the criticisms about variable sharpness and leaning verticals are true. You have so many potential candidates that are much better photos than this one. Cmao20 (talk) 12:04, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question Really beautiful, but just a small question about licenses. To me it looks like this is the same photo you have posted on Flickr. If so, that photo has "copyright all rights reserved" and here it is published under {{self|cc-by-sa-4.0}}. I don't think one photo (if it is the same photo and size) can be published under two licences. Can you and/or someone who knows stuff about licenses sort this out, please. --Cart (talk) 21:25, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- I changed the license on Flickr. However, I am convinced that as a creator I have the right to make the images available under a free license.--ArildV (talk) 04:08, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As author, you are absolutely free to do whatever you want with the license; you just can't do two different things to the same image. :) --Peulle (talk) 06:45, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is that right Peulle? I did release some of my photos under different licences before (typically when CC was inappropriate license for a publication/book and I was asked by authors for a different license.). I don't know so I'm genuinely interested. --Podzemnik (talk) 07:22, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, copyright laws may differ from country to country, so I'm not sure it applies everywhere, but the isue here is that an image that has been released with a free license can't have a restricted license somewhere else. When uploading to Commons, note that the release form says that you irrevocably release it under that license. Meaning you have given up the copyright (under certain conditions); the point is that you cannot then claim copyright over that same image anywhere else. :) --Peulle (talk) 16:05, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Peulle, sorry but what you wrote is just totally wrong. See Commons:Multi-licensing. Your argument is a bit like saying that because you are selling a book for £9.99 at one shop, you can't sell it for £12.99 at another. The licence document is just a generous offer to the re-user. You can make different offers elsewhere, just like you can sell a book for different amounts in different places. You have never given up the copyright unless you use a CC0 declaration to do so. You haven't "given up copyright (under certain conditions)" with a CC licence and yes you can claim copyright elsewhere because your copyright still exists. The CC BY SA licence has in big shouty letters: "THE WORK IS PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED." Indeed the "perpetual" aspect of the licence is actually constrained because when copyright no longer applies (XX years after you have died) the licence is void and no longer required. So the licence only exists while it is under copyright and can only be offered because the licensor owns the copyright. Any re-user is also required to publish your copyright notices, to remind everyone it is under copyright and merely licensed. Flickr doesn't offer many options for users to pick from. For example, they are still stuck at V2.0 of CC BY-SA. The folk on Commons who scrape photos off the internet, rather than uploading their own, face this issue all the time: one website claims "(c) all rights reserved" and another claims "(c) some rights reserved CC BY-SA 4.0".

The TLDR version is just chill. People are allowed to be inconsistent. -- Colin (talk) 10:04, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, you can publish under multiple licences, though technically "(c) all rights reserved" isn't a licence and is an inconsistent declaration when you have conditionally waived some rights elsewhere. Though some admins on Commons do need reminding that our images still do belong to us and are fully under copyright protection when licence conditions are not met. But I don't think there is anything legally wrong with it. You are simply telling one audience (Flickr) a different message to another (Commons). Diliff published all his cathedrals on Flickr with a -NC licence. Podzemnik you can offer as many licences as you like. Many older images on Commons are multiply licensed with GFDL and CC BY-SA. Any re-user has to pick one licence, though. (Just to be clear, the "(c)" bit isn't inconsistent and I put it on all my photos) -- Colin (talk) 07:32, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support I know, the trees, the trees. First off I think they help bring the monumentality in perspective. Second, and more importantly, the tree on the left closes the view that would otherwise be a boring roll off of the hillside, or worse, a cut into the rocks like in the panorama version. My only gripe is the clouds don't cast a shadow on one of the peaks. Can't have 'em all. -- KennyOMG (talk) 20:27, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Info This one might be the answer. —kallerna (talk) 16:47, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Funny how when I put them next to each other I feel like the trees in the foreground add more to the picture than the shadow that I was missing. Also funny how all of us (assumed) are always hunting vantage points where nothing impedes the view but sometimes it works out better with a bit of distraction in the frame.

Many photos (more dozens than hundreds for sure), be a little patient when there are people.

I took this shot at a place called "Bumpass Hell", named after the early settler Kendall Bumpass who broke through the thin crust and burned his leg, which consequently had to be amputated. As I'm eager to get more people to share their images on Wikimedia Commons, I also shot a YouTube video (English subtitles available) explaining how I find subjects for my photography subjects.

Support Cart (below) convinced me --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 14:43, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support Lovely and interesting lively image of owl eyes. I don't understand the everything-must-be-front-and-center thing this forum has. This view from a slight angle gives us a more pensive "hmm, who are you and what are you doing" look from the owl as opposed to the startled "deer in headlights" centered front view. From an encyclopedic point of view, it also gives a better "3D" look at the feathers (not sure owls have eyelashes) around the eye area. When looking at a human, this or this is often preferred over this, for me it's the same with animals. --Cart (talk) 10:44, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Agree with Peulle. And while I also agree with Cart, her examples don't convince me at all. For a start, this is a close up, focused on the eye, and it just annoys me that one eye is smaller than the other here.

Neutral I really like the light, and the fact the trail and line of clouds meet on the far left. Just, how sad it is so close to the border. I think I also agree the wooden part might be too much. It's hard to tell for sure, but the panorama might be slightly bended (upward curvature horizon) - Benh (talk) 19:26, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your last point, the area is on a glacial moraine, resulting in undulating topography, so you wouldn't get a perfectly straight horizon there. It was more obvious before I cropped a big chunk on the right. The Cosmonaut (talk) 20:52, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I like this, but it seems tilted to me (the horizon seems to slope to the right); is that worth checking? I also think it could be a tiny bit oversharpened. But it's a nice composition, and flaws should be fixable. Cmao20 (talk) 10:14, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The terrain is sloping, this is the natural prospect of this landscape, please take a look on the verticals of the castle. Sharpness mainly comes from wide-angle-lens, taken on tripod, but I reduced as proposed.

Honestly, the sharpness looks way less over the top now. Explanation understood, Support Cmao20 (talk) 15:55, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Really excellent composition. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:53, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral There is definitely FP potential. The subject and the landscape in the background are really nice, but the piece of road and the wires in the foreground don't help, probably it wasn't the best POV. Poc o² 17:06, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You've made a comprehensive criticism of the composition, so of course I don't take issue with that, but I don't think the castle is the "main subject", just the most prominent building in a larger landscape. If Isiwal had wanted to focus on just the castle as the subject, the photo would be much more narrowly defined on the castle. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:51, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Info A beautifully drawn gneis. The brown color was probably already on the stone before it fell. It is rust, iron, therefore, that probably formed in a crack in the rock when air and / or water could be added. The apparent layering is a characteristic of gneiss. Due to the pressure, the minerals have fallen into parallel paths.

Oppose Sorry for the early oppose – its nice but I am not at all sure about the composition. Is it meant to show a) the stone’s surface as such? Then, there’s too much surrounding, too little detail on the stone and too much noise. Why not fill the entire frame with it? Or is it b) the stone within its surrounding? Then, there’s too little surrounding, no depth. In either case, this is not the best possible image that could have been taken IMHO. --Kreuz schnabel 19:00, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Answer: @Axel Tschentscher: we went into the mountains of Switzerland with an archaeologist for a week. He knows the area like the back of his hand. All the photos that I have taken that contain something special, I first send to that archaeologist. He then makes the description with that photo. I then place that description under the photo. I think the description is correct! I therefore assume that the text is correct.--Famberhorst (talk) 16:44, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose As I said above, this is too poor in detail for an FP on the stone surface. Too small as well (only 4 megapixels now). Nevertheless it’s VI for sure. --Kreuz schnabel 07:11, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Interesting idea, but not sure about the composition here either. Looks very random. And questionable colours rendition (yes I read the caption about the colour temp). - Benh (talk) 17:49, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Benh: Easy to say it looks random even when the compo was chosen very carefully to get interesting trees while at the same time avoiding the glare of one lamp by the street to the right and get the floodlights around the field partially covered by trees so they wouldn't get too glary. As for the color, there are always questions about how to render sodium lights since cameras often have some difficulty picking up the exact right color. I've been there before and remembering those comments, I made a quick rendition of the light as soon as I got home and still had the scene fresh in my mind and I could set the color by using the normal (orange-y) sodium light shining on the road in front of the arena. When I got to the arena the sky was still blue, the floodlights had not warmed up yet and the fog was very thick (1). As time went by the fog thinned out a bit, the sky turned black and the floodlights became hotter and more yellow than orange. When I took this photo, the ambient light over the arena had turned almost green since the light from the floodlights was reflected from the plastic AstroTurf of the field up into the fog, giving the scene this strange yellow-green light. Normal grass isn't this reflective. You can follow how the light changed in the 1-18 photos in the series. --Cart (talk) 18:53, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes, trying to squeeze everything in just isn't the right thing to do. Thanks for the explanations on the colours. I like the orange on blue version better (and aside, they are complimentary colours). That wasn't the main reason why I opposed. - Benh (talk) 20:13, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Benh: I can totally respect if you don't like the compo, that is fine, it was the comment about the color that made me defensive since I went to great lengths to get it right. The raw was even more totally green since the camera read the sodium lights as 'white'. Yes, blue and orange are nice together, I guess you weren't around for the blue/orange doping thing. :) --Cart (talk) 20:21, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I withdraw my nomination On second thought, it probably was a mistake nominating this. Thanks anyway. --Cart (talk) 23:03, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fake and misleading. Given that Khlong Lan National Park lies well in the tropical zone I'd like to question whether this kind of autumn colors would even be possible there.

This is a 3 seconds photograph. The water is frozen yes, due to the long exposure. I like it like this personally, but even if I had preferred it fluid like moving, at this late sunset that would not have been possible at low ISO (here 50) -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:56, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

actually I do agree, somehow, with the criticisms. 3 sec is maybe a tad too long. Half a second gives a vert nice motion already without "smearing" everything.

Comment File:St. Georg - Mundelfingen - Chancel.jpg doesn't seem quite an FP to me, as I find it a little unsharp and a little grainy. The rest are FPs. Do you see what I'm getting at? I'm not so sure how much I like the light in that photo, either, but I don't think you can do anything about that. If you could get more definition and keep it looking natural, perhaps I could support. At this point, I'd be inclined to oppose the set, as I should support every photo in it for FP in order to support the set nomination. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:02, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

For what it's worth, I definitely see Ikan's point, I thought the same when I looked at it first-off. It seems to me that the focus might have been slightly missed on the chancel and that the sharpness has been increased to compensate. It looks better when downsized to around 6.5 mpx, but it's definitely the weakest of the set. I wasn't sure whether I'd support after only having looked at that one, but decided after viewing the others that overall the set together makes it to FP.

Info Ceiling of the Cathedral-Basilica of Mary, Queen of the World, Montreal, Canada. The construction of the cathedral, ordered by Ignace Bourget, began in 1875 in order to replace the former Saint-Jacques Cathedral which had burned in 1852. The building is a scale model of Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome and the new church was consecrated in 1894. In 2000 the cathedral was designated a National Historic Site of Canada. c/u/n by me, Poc o² 18:03, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment @Benh, The Cosmonaut, and Cmao20: Ok, I've applied a crop and brightened it a little bit.

Indeed I did. With food appropriate for the species. Charles (talk) 09:39, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I see a number of sources listing melons as something nutria eat, to the point of being considered a pest to melon farmers. But if we're just going to say that it wouldn't eat melons if humans weren't nearby, that's starting down a path into very gray area. Many species now only exist in relation to humans. Others have their diet modified by what humans make available. For example, squirrels probably wouldn't encounter little piles of seeds, probably of various types that may or may not grow where it lives (I am of course making an assumption that it was some store-bought medley of bird seed, which may not be the case, or may be carefully chosen to replicate exactly what squirrels eat in that particular habitat). — Rhododendrites ^talk | 03:33, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So it sounds like cantaloupe isn't a harmful food for nutrias. Whether it's a good idea to feed an invasive species is another question, but that the food is not appropriate for the species, I'd have to see documentation for. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:52, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Per Charles. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 02:24, 18 October 2019 (UTC) [reply]
Comment Both Charles and Frank have ignored the fact that animals living near urban areas tend to get influenced by people. Is it rare to find a gull or crow feeding on chips on the sidewalk? According to [1], nutria are also known to feed on vegetation near the water. There is no "set diet". Even the University of Oregon states that nutria have been known to invade gardens and yes they do eat the melons: [2]. That is why they are considered invasive in many places, they are just too able to adapt. And as for eating the water, they naturally bring food to the water to eat. Plus, other animals like raccoons do this also, so it's not only the nutria eating melons. A groundhog once ate a watermelon in my garden. Is a watermelon not part of their normal diet? Maybe. But did it eat it voluntarily(I didn't feed it)? Yes. Enough with the "appropriate food". Nutria are opportunistic animals and will eat anything they can find. As long as it doesn't kill it, then it's appropriate. Plus, do you think zoos would even feed them the appropriate food? I think not --Booth sift 05:32, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to withdraw your hosting of this nomination, I'll gladly take it over. I think it's totally absurd to deny a photograph a feature because the photographer admitted to feeding this species of animal on other occasions and not this occasion. Let's be straight about the implications of that. Does it mean Gzen92's pictures, or perhaps animal pictures only, can never be featured? If so, since Charles also admitted feeding a wild squirrel in order to get a better picture, should that picture be stripped of its FP status, and should all his other nominations be automatically failed? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:41, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Info Astronauts Christina Koch (on the right) and Jessica Meir (on the left) who are preparing for the first female spacewalk in history conducted exclusively by women. Not to be confused with the walk of Svetlana Savitskaya in 1984, who was the first woman to walk with her teammate.- uploaded by NASA - nominated by LLs -- LLs (discussion) 21:55, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support Historical photographs of an event. -- LLs (discussion) 21:55, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
A great event, but these three pictures are similar enough that I'm not sure why we'd promote all three? — Rhododendrites ^talk | 22:52, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Rhododendrites Because that is a continuation of photographs and according to the rules, they can all go if they are related, but if you think it is better to just put one, I have no problems, the last image on the right. -- LLs (discussion) 02:15, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I didn't mean to imply it was against the rules. It is certainly within the rules. The sequence itself, to me, just seems very minimal as compared to the content of any one of these individually, which don't seem that different from one another. We'll see what others say, though. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 02:18, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The title and description are wrong. This is not the first female space walk. It's the first all-female space walk. The first woman to walk in space was Svetlana Savitskaya in 1984 when she space walked with a man. Seven Pandas (talk) 02:34, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Seven Pandas Correct, but this is the first where there are only women, so it is recognized as a historical event, the same American government recognized it as such. -- LLs (discussion) 02:40, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - The fact that Trump called it the first female spacewalk - I hope that isn't your reason for using the term. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:55, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Ikan Kekek No, the detail of the difference between the first woman to make a walk (1984) and the first space walk made only by women (2019) has already been added. -- LLs (discussion) 03:02, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Language is important for image titles. As stated above, having a space walk by only women is called an "all-female space walk" in English and that is how this is decribed in media. "First female space walk" is the first time a woman in any company makes a space walk, there is a difference, so in this case the set title is wrong. --Cart (talk) 06:44, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Even though I'm clearly biased about this event (Jessica Meir's mother is Swedish, so this is huge in media here), I don't see this as a good set nom. The images are only slightly different, and in any other environment they could almost be seen as just zooming in on a subject. Having three images seems superfluous. First human on the moon was also huge and it didn't get a set nom. I would recommend that you {{withdraw}} this and select one image for a single nom. The titles of the images are also incorrect English and should be changed from "female" to "all-female" per my comment above. --Cart (talk) 06:58, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed Files renamed. --Cart (talk) 07:20, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Agree Cart. Plus the photo on the left isn't good at all. Seven Pandas (talk) 11:51, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Firstly I don't think this meets the requirement of a "set" nomination. The point of a "set" nomination is that one can describe the criteria for a finite number of images. Front/back; day-time/evening/night-time. This is just three images arbitrarily taken where the women are posing for the camera. Us photographers have lots of such sets on our hard discs, and typically pick one from them that is the best. I'm not really seeing any one of them at FP level. If the "spacewalk" is the "wow" then, well, they aren't space walking. I think generally that historic events are best nominated sometime afterwards. This gives plenty time to collect some photos and distance to judge objectively. -- Colin (talk) 16:00, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above. Interesting event, but I'm not sure why we need three FPs of it, and it's not very coherent as a set. I'm not sure any of these quite have sufficient wow for FP. Cmao20 (talk) 19:06, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Seems like three selfies with little value. At least make it look more important, these have no wow and I wouldn't be able to tell what was going on without an explanation. --Booth sift 00:01, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support It's 58 megapixels, so a bit of unsharpness is forgiveable. Certainly it's sharper in the middle than at the edges, but ultimately we shouldn't expect anything different. Cmao20 (talk) 09:20, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I'm judging based on the observed size of the frescoes at full size, not the number of megapixels. If there were more of a closeup, I'd be happy to judge it based on sharpness at less than full size. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:40, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Answer: the photo shows a natural process. The birch branch was already dead. The mushroom has used it. The mushroom is now also dying. All that between (Dead) autumn leaves. How beautiful can the natural cycle be.--Famberhorst (talk) 04:52, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Not too bad but not outstanding either. Poor handling of contrast, many bright areas are blown. Strange artifacts / doubled contours on most edges, seems to have been oversharpened. I think you’d need additional lighting to take an outstanding image here. --Kreuz schnabel 13:03, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Too dark and too ordinary--Booth sift 23:50, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I feel a little responsible for this nomination, because I said on COM:Photography critiques that the photo looked very good to me and could be worth nominating. However, I did bring up that it felt like the picture was taken too close to the altar. I like the light better than you all, because it illuminates the cross and the angel, but I don't love the slanted statues on the left and right. I'd prefer a picture from a bit further away that has the entire chapel in focus, as the best FPs of similar subjects that we've promoted have. My bad, though, that I was thinking more positively than critically when I posted to Photography critiques. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:32, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose I think the image quality is overall quite good, but the composition doesn't quite work for me. There's too much relatively uninteresting floor, and not enough altar. A narrower focus on the altar itself would I think be better. Cmao20 (talk) 21:42, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support Would've loved to get in there with some better lighting [for photography] and with a tripod (or at least without the throngs of people), but I'm nominating because it's not the sort of thing we see often at FPC and, well, it's a rainbow cape. :) — Rhododendrites ^talk | 05:29, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support -- Hanooz 11:15, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
~~Support~~ I see from the history that the photographer has altered the photo several times since first upload. Most of the changes seem harmless though I would caution against making changes to permanent features. The original upload had a litttle more height top and bottom, and I'm not sure why that was cropped out -- can it be restored? -- Colin (talk) 11:52, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If the edits are not constructive we can simply revert to the earlier versions. If they are I can send an email to the uploader and ask him to upload a bigger version. Hanooz 13:41, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The sky is fake?--Claus 13:45, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- I think you are right. The clouds near the horizon do not have the appearance of clouds near a horizon. Hanooz can you ask the uploader about this. It is one thing to remove tourists from an image but sky replacement is a big no no. The WLM Iran team should also be informed. Compare File:Naghshejahan.jpg from 2018. -- Colin (talk) 13:57, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - On hold I'm speaking with him on email. Hanooz 16:30, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - For me fake sky is also a no go (especially when it's communism propaganda quality like here), but we have cases of sky substitution which got close to POTY in the past ;) - Benh (talk) 17:06, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Cropped because of fixing perspective errors and straight vertical lines. The clouds are fake but I clone them because I thought that manipulation dont cause the main subject to be misrepresented and not intended to deceive. this image merged from 25 picture with 24mm tilt shift lens . (5*5) 5 frame and 5 level exposure for each frame and finaly merged to this picture — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amirpashaei (talk • contribs)
~~Oppose~~ The composition is gorgeous. The thorough photoshopping that went on top is less... The lighting of the clouds doesn't even match the one on the ground. And I don't get how the dark area of the inside "dome" is of so poor quality despite the many raw pictures which served as a basis. - Benh (talk) 17:16, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

~~Oppose~~ It's quite startlingly impressive to look at, but it really isn't accurate to reality. The sky simply doesn't look natural, and I feel that the image is quite oversaturated too. Cmao20 (talk) 07:15, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Colin, Benh, Frank Schulenburg, Kestreltail, and Poco a poco: Could you please take a look at the new version (with the real sky)? Hanooz 12:46, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hanooz:This kind of editing are not welcome here at FPC nor in WLM. WLM contest's rules there are clear, and this kind of editing is clearly violating them. Reverting that edit doesn't make things fine again. I'm only ready to change my vote if the photographer assures you that no other images are edited like this one was or in that case that a new version is uploaded where deceiving edits are reverted. The photographer should take this seriously, if we find such an editing again in any other of the images submitted to WLM I'd recommend the other members of the jury not to let pass any of the photographer's images.

Oppose Crop is a bit random, with the left third and right quarter not really contributing to the view. I don't think the harsh mid-day sunlight is doing the image any favours, with the right side especially washed out. It looks like the image was over-exposed and highlights dropped to grey. We have a lot of alpine photographs and while the view from a peak is amazing in real life, for it to be FP as a photograph, I think we need great light/weather or a special composition. A wide-angle-panorama at mid-day with a pale blue sky and washed out rocks isn't special enough IMO. -- Colin (talk) 15:47, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I actually had the tree in the centre of the original shot, and then cropped it like that because it seemed too central to me. You can take a look at the original version of the image to see what it looked like. If you prefer that one, I'm happy to provide it (or a similar crop) as alternative. --Domob (talk) 08:21, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Here's the thing: we have a surprising number of very similar FPs from the same area: 1, 2, 3, 4. I do rather like this one, and like the striking colors, but when comparing, the colors do look much more orange in this one. Might it be a different spot with a different mineral composition? Was the light that different (looks to have been around the same time of day as #3/4)? To be clear I'm neutral-leaning-support at this stage. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 23:04, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I know, but I personally think that this shot looks much better than at least 3, 4 (who look rather bland to me). I like the other two (1, 2) a lot better, but still think that my nomination has more "wow" at least to me. That's why I nominated it. But of course all this is purely subjective, and I'm probably less experienced as a photographer than most of you. --Domob (talk) 08:21, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I agree the noise in the sky is a bit annoying. I did not apply any sharpening to it, though. --Domob (talk) 05:00, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

~~Oppose~~ There is partially too much noise in the sky, I'd also reduce the contrast and the top left corner is too dark, it looks unreal Poc o² 18:57, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've made the top-left corner a bit brighter now, so it matches the overall sky more evenly. I tried to reduce the noise in the sky, but unfortunately that always also hurts legitimate details in the picture, so I didn't do any noise reduction in the end. --Domob (talk) 05:02, 25 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral for now. As it is, this image is something of a missed opportunity; it's an absolutely stunning motif, but per Michielverbeek it's not great in terms of image quality, mainly because the sharpness has been missed slightly.

I wouldn’t say upscaled, it rather looks oversharpened to me – doubled contours and contrast-enhanced edges.

Neutral The exported image is very small (canvas size), the references are insufficient in the image description and cosmetics stars without any value --Wilfredor (talk) 01:49, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Canvas size is irrelevant for SVG images because vector diagrams are scalable to any size; the only reference given in the description states specifically what other source was used to create this image and includes a link (I have now expanded this as well); the cosmetic stars are easy enough to remove, and I have done so. A loose necktie (talk) 03:20, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A loose necktie, while canvas size does not fundamentally matter, as SVG are scalable, it does seem to affect the default preview size on the file page, and the size you get when you click on the preview, which is rather small. Could you make it larger please so that the default preview is bigger? I think Wilfredor is asking for a reference for your interior parts. For example, "anticrust" is not mentioned on en:Mercury (planet) and Googling "mercury anticrust" turns up nothing relevant at all. The existing File:Mercury's internal structure1.jpg diagram used on Wikipedia includes depth information, which would seem to be worth having. I would expect solid references for the names of significant layers in the plant body, and for the thickness of each layer that is directly proportional to the displayed thickness on the diagram. -- Colin (talk) 08:32, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Now I understand much, much better. Rescaling the image has a few effects: several of my SVG filters do not scale along with the image, so changing actual image size means having to use other filters here, but hopefully most of these will not matter. Regarding references for the content of the diagram: please see the current file description for these. I had tried reorganizing the content of this portion of the Wikipedia article to include mention of this layer, but my edit was reverted wholesale and the information went along with it. Still, my diagram is no less accurate for all this, yes? Thank you for the explanations! A loose necktie (talk) 12:54, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Colin for your clarification, please, A loose necktie take a look to my edition here which shows the proper way to add references. Also, you could take a look to Referencing for beginners. Btw, I think it is only necessary to reduce the font size and remove the last text you added that could go in the description of the image.

Info Of the Common pigeon genus this is a specimen with all relevant details (bright red eyes, red feet, ringed plumage, white feathers, greenish neck ring) in perfect focus against an unobtrusive background. The only complete FP we have loses the details in the shadow and, therefore, does not get even close to this picture. Created by Luc Viatour - uploaded by Luc Viatour - nominated by Axel Tschentscher

Comment - I agree with the points in the nomination, but don't we ask for geographic coordinates? Are they there? I'm not seeing them for this file (nor for the other one). -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:35, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ikan Kekek: Geolocation is mandatory for VI, at FP we don't have a rule like this – it's more like a "nice to have" in most cases. Personally, I sometimes ask for it if I consider it important for the subject, but wouldn't insist on it for a picture like this. After all, this is an incredibly common species, and with the background blurred like this there are no clues as to where the picture was taken anyway. It could be a scene from almost any city in Belgium (or on the planet). --El Grafo (talk) 06:56, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Has enough green CA on the right side to kill an everyday nom. -- KennyOMG (talk) 22:15, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral The picture is good, and probably among most aesthetic pictures ever of this unaesthetic species. But the exact location is missing: not only geotag, also a category (city, district, street/square -- in short, the lowest available depth). Without these infos, I hesitate to support. Unfortunately, Lviatour apparently is not active. --A.Savin 12:52, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support Hopefully, someone will be able to get in contact with Luc Viatour for the location info. In the meantime, I support the image as being acceptable for FP. --GRDN711 (talk) 18:40, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - This is a very good pigeon picture, and while this isn't the most beautiful pigeon I've ever seen, there's nothing ugly about it to me. But since green CA was mentioned, I suppose there may be some on the tail feathers, and that's inhibiting me from voting to support this nom. We really need M. Viatour to come here and participate. It looks to me like the email shown on his personal gallery page is operational, though whether it would actually get to him is anyone's guess. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:59, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It wants to get away from maybe a danger, get out of sight (perhaps of the camera ;-) ) or out of reach. This is such a case.

+1, excellent example of "breaking the rules" with a purpose.

CommentThank you for your comments. It is clear, I often "break the rules" and with my decision for sure I am moving away of a real featured pictures canidate. But for me to choose more place on the left is not a better choice. A few minutes ago I tried it out, but it really doesn´t work. I created (in my opinion) a quiet boring picture, completely forgetting the idea behind it. hobbyfotowikil (talk) , 22:50, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Lead room aside, it just doesn't feel special enough for me. Feels like a near miss for what could have been an FP. Daniel Case (talk) 01:25, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Question Hi all negative voters. Would you say that this painting is a bad painting due to the non-existent but from you unconditional demanded lead room, wouldn'd you? In addition to my former statement, the goose seems to look back to the danger. So the lead room is not before but behind the goose. Please think about that. --Hockei (talk) 17:58, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
