Comment This is a spherical panoramic, which should be viewed either with the online viewer linked on the file page (but note that it doesn't show full quality/resolution!), or a stand-alone application like Panini. --Domob (talk) 12:03, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I love the peaceful atmosphere of this picture, which pefectly captures how the feeling at the lake really was. Also there are not too many other spherical panoramic FPs of natural places, most of them are buildings. --Domob (talk) 12:03, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Is there anything you can do about the lens flares, and there is also one area of the sky which is darker than the rest, otherwise great! Poco a poco (talk) 16:44, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing specific (like use different frames for the panorama). But since it is just on the blue sky, I guess it would be straight-forward to edit it out with Gimp. I didn't bother to do that because it does not obstruct anything (i.e. is not "in the way") and I actually like the vibe it gives to the picture. I'm happy to try and edit it out though if you and others prefer that. --Domob (talk) 17:26, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support I would cut off the lower part.--Ermell (talk) 21:31, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Ermell: While the lower part may look unpleasant when looking at the flat image, it is an essential component of the 360 view. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 23:38, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry for rowing against the flood. No doubt this is a very good picture technically, but there is nothing in here that rings my wow bells. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:09, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per Alvesgaspar. Only a small part of the view is pleasant and even then not exactly postcard material. The rest is some nearby trees, some muddy grass and some blue sky. I think a 360 should reward the viewer with something amazing all around, or at the very least, front and back. -- Colin (talk) 14:19, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your review! I see what you mean, and it does make sense. However, I also see value in spherical panoramics for being immersive in a nice place. Also the lake and the bordering trees take up at least 180 degrees of the FOV (not just a tiny portion). --Domob (talk) 16:05, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Very good quality, but ordinary scene. Sorry. --Milseburg (talk) 16:32, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I agree with the low wow level and believe that lens flares should be removed along with the unequal sky luminosity Poco a poco (talk) 17:01, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've worked on the lens flare and sky now. --Domob (talk) 18:19, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per others. --Fischer.H (talk) 16:12, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Pleasant but not extraordinary, in my opinion, and why does this text come up when I open the panorama viewer? "A better version is being prepared - I'll let you know when it is done." -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:38, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The online panorama viewer seems to be having issues (already for some months) and shows a very limited resolution/quality (plus the message you mention). This has nothing to do with the picture itself (and applies in fact to all spherical panoramics on commons I believe); you can use a standalone viewer application like Panini to view it in full quality. --Domob (talk) 09:58, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If you'd like us to use a different viewer, could you include a link to it on your file page? -- Ikan Kekek (talk ) 19:09, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately I'm not aware of another viewer that can just be linked (rather than having to install an application, download the file and open it with it). The one linked used to work in the past and seems to be the standard for commons (e.g. also used in a couple of Wikipedia articles directly). Note that this is something applying to all spherical panoramics on commons, nothing specific to this one. --Domob (talk) 09:08, 7 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
