Info De Haar Castle is located in the Netherlands. The current buildings, all built upon the original castle, date from 1892 and are the work in a Neo-Gothic restoration project funded by the Rothschild family. All by Moroder -- Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 18:33, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: there is a rather prominent stitching issue on the right, see note. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 18:47, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And near the bench too. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 18:49, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done Thanks for the hints. Cheers --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 20:32, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nice, the line is gone from the sky, but it's still present left of the church, see note. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 21:42, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done fixed, thanks --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 07:50, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question Why have the grass in the foreground? Charles (talk) 20:42, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I kept it because more or less the water is not a lake but should be regarded as a moat. Consider that the whole structure was completly rebuilt in the 19th century. --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 21:36, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I realise. thanks. I don't think it helps the composition for FP though with the seat there. Charles (talk) 22:40, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done Toook out the bench --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 07:50, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral Very high-quality of course, but I just don't think the cylindrical projection works for architecture. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:38, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak support The frame on the furthest left is blurrier than the others, but the resolution is of course excellent. Passes the bar for me. Cmao20 (talk) 15:58, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Prominent stitching errors on the right (walls, bridge). Also per King of Hearts, the projection makes the castle seem strangely distorted. -- B2Belgium (talk) 21:28, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done I fixed this one too. Thanks for the hint --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 10:51, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's better but not entirely fixed. Maybe compare to this picture. -- B2Belgium (talk) 19:41, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Very good colors. But the buildings look too distorted for me. May be that a better view is not possible. -- Lothar Spurzem (talk) 07:06, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak support Not perfect but per Cmao the flaws do not do the picture in. Daniel Case (talk) 16:19, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support Poc o² 15:18, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose Not convinced yet. Level of detail is undoubtedly impressive but the projection makes the central part look distorted (towers look flattened) and does not convey if the walls are "lining up" in reality. User:Spurzem already drew attention to this. Very good sharpness in the center but decreasing rapidly towards the sides. There seems to have been done some cloning in the trees left of the church tower, and for the sky, there’s colour banding all over the left half (and visible posterization). All in all, I think this has been overprocessed. Try a bit less saturation. --Kreuz schnabel 05:35, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
