Info created & uploaded by User:Uoaei1 - nominated by User:Ikan Kekek -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:25, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I just saw this at QIC and felt impelled to nominate it here right away. In my opinion, it's a complex, great altarpiece, excellently photographed with a good depth of field, and the other elements in the photo (except for the red rope) are a nice bonus. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:25, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support Per Ikan. -- Johann Jaritz (talk) 02:00, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Ikan --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 06:08, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support as author. @Ikan Kekek: thanks for nominating! --Uoaei1 (talk) 06:56, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - You're most welcome! -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:35, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Disturbing surroundings. --Karelj (talk) 09:36, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Question - I'm surprised. What are you finding disturbing? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:15, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Something white (electric light, reproductor?,...) on the right side, electric socket on the left side. Rest of some painting (probably) on the wall behind... --Karelj (talk) 20:40, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, part of a Medieval fresco. I like that a lot, but I get your points and understand them. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:53, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Well I think I get his point. It's pretty cluttered and unbalanced because of the right pilar. - Benh (talk) 17:26, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Thanks for explaining your point of view. Of course we disagree about whether this is an FP photo of this altarpiece, but do you think it would be possible to take an FP of this altarpiece? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:49, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Cameras have gotten so good that today anyone can take a sharp picture of that with basic knowledge of photography. But maybe with a crop... - Benh (talk) 15:03, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

mild Support When you see this as a thumbnail I agree that it’s too cluttered but when you really look at it I see what Ikan sees. The whole photo is very complex and is excellently photographed. DoF is right on, it’s just that the other elements in the photo (except for the red rope and plant) subtract a bit. Lack of symmetry isn't a dealbreaker here for me. -- Sixflashphoto 20:13, 17 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The main subject is more than excellent, The picture and the work are very good with a lot of details. But yes, there are many surrounding disturbing elements. I've suggested a crop, which could make me support.--Jebulon (talk) 09:03, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I appreciate your detailed review. The result of your crop would be a very different picture. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:23, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Question Did you think of a black mask, in order to emphasize the altarpiece, which is a pure marvel ?--Jebulon (talk) 08:44, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Info I guess the proposed crop will work fine, but not with a black mask. Unfortunately I do not have the RAW files with me, so I cannot provide a cropped version at the moment. Probably I will come up with this by next week. --Uoaei1 (talk) 08:53, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

By next week, this will either be an FP or be declined at FPC. If it passes and you'd like to offer the proposed crop, I suppose you could suggest a delist and replace, or you could propose that version as another FP, but I don't know how that would be received. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:32, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is what I planned to do, but I am also not sure about reactions. Maybe better to wait a bit. But in no case I want to work on JPG. --Uoaei1 (talk) 12:15, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Weak support I wish that yellow section of wall on the right wasn't there, but otherwise it qualifies. Daniel Case (talk) 06:17, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support I'd also wished a different crop but it is still most appealing--Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 12:54, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support Per W. Moroder --Llez (talk) 10:44, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
