Info Impression of Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord at blue hour. Taking this picture was quite demanding, considering I was standing in a relatively tiny courtyard surrounded by industrial buidlings. An UWA lense was essential, plus some perspective correction. All the different sources of light made it difficult to correctly adjust the WB. What is more: The red light was kind of flickering, resulting in the impression that the "red tower" is somewhat lacking sharpness, although both objects in front of and behind it are in fact in focus.

Oppose Sorry but I´m not so happy with the composition and quality. The very wide field of view makes a perspective correction necessary, so far so good. But the result is a little bit too much for my taste. Now it looks like Penrose stairs to me... ;-) --mathias K 10:58, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral The light there is very challenging (as I know from my own experience). You managed it very well - congrats. The quality of the shot is also very good. The reason for my neutral vote is that the composition is not fully convincing. There are limited photo positions but the building is directed away from the viewer and looks somehow imbalanced. As far as I can remember the atrium where you are standing is very tight and the usage of ultra WW obligatory and the perspective rather extereme. --Tuxyso (talk) 21:46, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Since composition seems to be an issue above, as mentioned by mathias K and Tuxyso, I'd like to offer this image as an alternative. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 06:01, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral This one is better. Composition looks more pleasing to me, but due to the massive perspective correction it looks still unnatural in my eyes. Especially the green chamber is too much "corrected" for my taste... --mathias K 07:11, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Thanks, mathias K, for your review! Well, imo perspective correction isn't really radical in this case. My lense plane was almost parallel to the image plane. Cf. some photos without any perspective correction, here, and here. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 08:35, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose—Composition seems worse—the contour of the structure is now fanning out into the edge. It was better when it had the whole two-thirds of the picture to face out towards. Also seems slightly overcompressed & oversharpened—Love, Kelvinsong talk 00:26, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
