Info created & uploaded by User:PtrQs - nominated by User:Ikan Kekek -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:41, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I nominate this photo for your consideration because I find this ceiling beautiful and unique, and I think the sharpness is sufficient, considering the size of the file. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:41, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support Per Ikan. -- Johann Jaritz (talk) 11:53, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support It's not often a church ceiling just makes you smile, but this with all its curvy lines and bulbous shapes in primary colors brings to mind a sort of bouncing castle. --cart-Talk 13:40, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support I'm torn on whether or not I like the imbalance of the three major sections. My initial reaction is to wish there were either more on the left in view or even that it were a couple separate images, but at the same time it's all so colorful and crisp that I rather enjoy getting it all at once. Support either way, though. :) — Rhododendrites ^talk | 22:51, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Of cause the square of the sanctuary longs to be centered, but restricted by my 24mm lens this was the only way to show more than the sanctuary without cutting the colorful Christ Pancrator on the right. But I'm glad you like it nonetheless. --PtrQs (talk) 01:01, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose rotation --Mile (talk) 06:00, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Question - In which direction would you like User:PtrQs to rotate the picture? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:44, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To portrait mode, of course (90° CW). But now i saw this shot, less chance to do that. Its not just better, but more suitable for article too. --Mile (talk) 11:47, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it's better; rather, I find the photo I nominated richer in the variety of frescos it presents. Sure, the other photo is more useful for an article about Christ Pantocrator, but that's not the only reason for featuring a photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:28, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Without mandatory reason for a special orientation for such stretched pictures I choose landscape as it allows the maximal use on the screen. In portrait mode you could see the full image only in a very small view (Just open the image in full view and press Ctrl-Alt-RightButton! Panic mode off: You can undo this by pressing Ctrl-Alt-UpButton ) --PtrQs (talk) 01:28, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Mile, because it seems to be, based on my own reactions to images, that left-right symmetry is far more important than top-bottom symmetry in a photograph -- Thennicke (talk) 07:24, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
