Info A little something for those who wanted more artistic and perhaps minimalistic pics. :) A combination of four photos of a halogen floodlight as seen through the pouring rain on a double-glazed window one dark and stormy afternoon. All by me -- cart-Talk 00:26, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support @W.carter: I love seeing all the original ideas you come up with. This looks like a very artistic Rorschach test. lNeverCry 01:08, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

INC, that comment about my crazy ideas being welcome made my day! Now I don't care if the rest of the votes are 'opposes'. --cart-Talk 11:04, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support per INC and out of pure interest. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:10, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support Looks like a very surreal playing card ... Daniel Case (talk) 07:17, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment good and interesting! It may be just my screen but I really don't have to try all that hard to identify the individual segments, ie photos, of this composite nomination. Maybe you'd like to go back to photoshop for a sec to improve (darken) the background a bit more? --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 10:01, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Martin, thanks for the feedback. :) It's not you monitor, I hadn't planned on "merging" these four photos any further than a thin gradual line to separate them. They are after all photos of a window pane and not total darkness, but if you think a bit darkness would improve the pic, sure I can do that. Only the space around the floodlights though since a total darkening overhaul would damage the fine details on the floodlights themselves. I'll have to do it later though since this is the day we celebrate X-mas in Sweden. Have you seen all the tiny rainbow patterns at full size? --cart-Talk 11:16, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - and never mind. The picture is great as it is! So: Support, of course --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 23:47, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Martin, that very gracious of you. :) Nevertheless, you were right. I've cleaned up the gradient in the darkness between the lights a bit.(Hmmm, in any other context that sentence would have sounded metaphysical and contrived... ;) On this project we certainly say things that would have sounded crazy outside the scope.)

Thanks. And lol! :-) --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 15:18, 25 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
