  • Nomination Passenger ship Motala Express on Nybroviken in Stockholm --MB-one 07:42, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •   Support Looks OK, albeit poor lighting conditions. A small improvement can be made by cropping the top to get rid of that partial crane. --Peulle 08:24, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Oppose underexposed. --Kallerna 11:50, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Done Raised exposure and shadows slightly. --MB-one 12:46, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Support Despite the huge depth of field and the potentially busy and cluttered backdrop, the boat still manages to grab the attention (possibly because it is itself busy and cluttered with people). Detail is good at full screen and sufficient at 100%. And even though there are no bright whites in the scene, the exposure feels fitting for that period towards evening when the sun is low on an overcast day. --Bobulous 18:55, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Neutral The composition is good, the lighting condition as well as the sharpness are not. It is not sharp enough to support and too well lightened to oppose... . --Augustgeyler 11:55, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
Total: 2 support (excluding the nominator), 1 oppose →   Promoted   --Augustgeyler 01:17, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

  • Nomination African peguins at Boulders Beach, Cape Town --MB-one 07:42, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •   Oppose random composition. --Kallerna 11:51, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Comment I disagree. Composition is carefully centered around the penguin scratiching it's head. --MB-one 12:42, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Support The penguin literally squats in the middle of the picture, which is not a great composition. This could be greatly improved by simply cropping. But a crop is purely a matter of taste and does not change the quite useful technical quality. In any case, cropping always means loss of information. I think the photo is good enough in terms of the central QIC criteria. If someone wants to have it cropped differently, it is no problem to upload a new version as a derivative work. If a photo is technically ok, the criterion "composition" should not be the only reason for rejection, unless the presented picture really looks like junk or a completely random snapshot. Neither is the case here. --Smial 10:18, 20 October 2020 (UTC) Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
  •   Weak oppose In that case it is not about cropping more but cropping less. As the composition is centred around the penguin scratching it's head and the author decided to show many more animals around they should not have been cropped that far. Those to the right and especially the scene at the bottom shows actions which are sadly cropped. --Augustgeyler 10:25, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Oppose Useful documentation but that's more relevant to VIC. Oppose per others. -- Ikan Kekek 10:51, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Comment So a small defect in terms of "composition" is sufficient to reject an otherwise technically more than adequate photo? Lesson learned. And, please, rate the photo directly, not because you reject my comment or rating criteria, that's unfair to the photographer. And again: the composition is imo too centered, but by far not "random". This is a minor fault. --Smial 13:12, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Comment I am with you Smial. It might be a minor defect. And of course I voted directly on that image, it is nothing against your statement. We just do have different opinions about how important composition is for QI. Im looking forward seeing more reviewers opinions here. --Augustgeyler (talk) 14:33, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Weak support I think the composition is fine. It's too bad at least three penguins are cut-off, and a bigger aperture may have helped to mitigate them, but there seems to be a whole "main penguin" scratching its head that is sharp enough. --Trougnouf 13:55, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
Total: 2 support (excluding the nominator), 3 oppose →   Declined   --Augustgeyler 01:18, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

  • Nomination The monument to Alexandre Desrousseaux in Lille, France --Velvet 17:45, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •   Support Good quality. --Moroder 15:30, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Oppose Distracting background. --Kallerna 11:41, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Weak oppose The resolution is low and the upper part of the monument seams unsharp. Kallerna is right, this background should not have been that sharp and visible. --Augustgeyler 09:32, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Support The face's maniacal expression is sufficient to draw at least this viewer's attention, such that the background can't possibly compete with it. -- Ikan Kekek 10:56, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
  •   Support Not the most beautiful background and the main object is sharp enough for me --Michielverbeek 05:19, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
