Info Pedestrian overpass in Colatina, Espírito Santo, Brazil. Created, uploaded and nominated by ★ -- ★ 09:50, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support I think this B&W version is nicer than the original one; the tones appear more uniform. -- ★ 09:50, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That may be the case, but you should upload this version as a separate file. Yann (talk) 13:00, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Even if it's my own work? ★ 14:32, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why not? I'd like it to be offered as an alt. I'm tending to prefer it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:37, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Ikan Kekek: Done. ★ 09:10, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Perspective issue (at the top) -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:41, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, no… I can assure you that the beam (just the first one) was really titled/misaligned (notice that the other beams are firmly perpendicular). ★ 00:57, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weird. Not horizontal -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:57, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The tilt was the first thing I noticed when I took the photo; I personally checked it several times and concluded that it was indeed what I was seeing at the time. ★ 01:08, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support Prefer b&w over color (I'm more than used to my phone (1 model before yours) overprocessing the clouds which is somewhat absent in the b&w photo). --SHB2000 (talk) 12:57, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support --Yann (talk) 15:24, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support Artistically impressive. The colour one would probably be slightly more encyclopedic in theory, but this isn't really the kind of image that gets used in literal encyclopedic uses like Colatina. It's more likely to get metaphorical uses. Adam Cuerden (talk) 20:31, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per my comments on the alt. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:40, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support the black and white version only as an interesting collection of shapes and forms that add up to a good semi-abstract photo. But the quality at full size is not very good. Cmao20 (talk) 17:38, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Horizontal cables are distracting at the top (electrical lines?) Also the tilted beam looks odd (although possibly real). Busy background behind the metal fence, especially the lower right corner with many cables. The architectural work is not outstanding, sorry -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:45, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per Basile Morin. -- Karelj (talk) 10:49, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per above. ~Moheen ^{(keep talking)} 07:05, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I withdraw my nomination ★ 12:53, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Thanks. I like this photo but haven't yet decided whether I think it's special enough to feature. I will live with this photo longer. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:50, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The B&W one has all the drama making sense, IMO as the author. ★ 14:50, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I disagree with you. This version somehow has more depth, and while black & white doesn't always look drab, I think this composition does look drab as a black & white. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:40, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So, support this… ★ 12:42, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Like I said, I'm not sure this version is an FP, either. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:17, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
