  * Oppose I do not agree with JalalV's review. The image is overexposed in too many spots. A slight toning down might have helped, because it is otherwise a pretty good panoramic. However, with this exposure, it should not be a QI. --Florian Prischl 17:09, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

  - I've never considered whether or not clouds are perfectly exposed to be very important when the clouds are just part of the background and the subject of the image is well exposed. This is indeed important in landscape shots, but not in shots illustrating a particular object, such as a car, building or animal, when the background isn't a significant part of the composition. TimVickers 23:13, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

It might satisfy condition b), thus the question remains: is there a common interest for the particular subject? --Siipikarja 07:37, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
This is not quoted from the guidelines. It's only the way QIs are sorted and is quoted from COM:QI (and "particular subject" has nothing to do with interest here I think). Guidelines are technical and can be found here. --Eusebius 07:56, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Info I uploaded a new version, based on the previous two others: see File:Juvenile_Humboldt_Penguin_(zoo_de_Vincennes).jpg#filehistory (I personaly find it weird, but noise was criticized —which is normal— and I tried something. This is my first try for a QA and I wonder if my photos are good enough for this). There is less noise, the penguin is clearly visible, and cropping seems ok. Its encyclopedic value is to show this penguin in his “habitat” (zoo de Vincennes), hence the visible ground.
Oppose I agree with the EV, so I would support this for VI. However, the difficult conditions mean that the quality is not enough for QI -- noise and the penguin is a bit blurry. Also, I would favour the original crop, or maybe slightly taller. --Specious 13:43, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Done The image was renamed, but as the file name affects the technical quality of photos? Usually, when I upload images I do not know how called species.

Just use a template {{Rename}} if you are sure that the correct name of the species --Butko 07:27, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
- I spent some time reducing the backlog of images with non-descriptive names; it was before the bot that renames the images was running (that I know of). I happen to believe in the usefulness of descriptive image names and it is part of the technicalities of quality for an image which is part of a collection of millions of images and in my opinion, an important thing for any image that receives any token of community approval. The assistance of others towards identification is a nice detail here, once the assistance is received, it is good for some follow through from the receiver? Commons should be an image server and not so much of an image dump. Also, I wanted to take {{Requirement}} for a run; kind of cool how it allows its description to be changed.... -- carol (talk) 13:07, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

  Comment This is a really tricky candidate. I do not think it is 100% QU material due to the somewhat blurred plants and possibly(?) blurred water surface, but that is too hard for me to judge. The uniform surface makes it very hard to distinguish much. I'll look at it some more. --Florian Prischl 16:42, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I concure with Ianare, but also thing the whole stick needs a better perspective. Currently it looks a little off to me, although I cannot say exactly what is bothering me, sorry. I think it might be the fact that the glass vial is too flat, making the whole glowstick look strange.

Oppose Distracting angle that shows the cat neither in profile nor face-on. Composition (framing) also not advantageous. --Florian Prischl 19:22, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
Would support a cropped version (I uploaded one, please revert if you don't like it). The image size obviously decreased, but the depth of field of the whole image is now acceptable for me. I tried to photography my cat(s) and I can relate: it's quite hard to either have a nice depth of field and eyes in focus. Diti 15:30, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
