Oppose I kind of get what you're trying to do here - an 'ordinary day scene' could probably make it as an FP as the ordinary is extraordinary in its own way, but this particular scene just doesn't quite do it for me. (I'd also reduce noise a bit more). --Peulle (talk) 19:34, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well, 'ordinary day scene' was not what I was going for, so I guess I flunked this one. Re-pavement of a main road is done about once every 10 years or so, and that is not something you can document every day. I liked all the little traffic sign "seedlings" that seemed to have sprouted along the curved road. That's what made it special to me. If this was how our roads usually looked, we'd be in trouble. ;) I don't want to de-noise it too much, since it would take away the grittiness of the scene. --Cart (talk) 19:47, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

P.S.: Norwegian roads are so bad I see this kind of roadworks all the time ... ;-D--Peulle (talk) 20:29, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see, commiserations. --Cart (talk) 20:34, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry, no wow --Michielverbeek (talk) 20:19, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I think a FP should be a bit esthetic. Sharpness and correct colors are not enough. -- Lothar Spurzem (talk) 22:15, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As you know, I like to challenge that from time to time with more documentary or journalistic content. Sometimes it works, most of the times not, but it's worth a try. --Cart (talk) 22:25, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I guess I also get what you were trying to do here. It just doesn't really work, sorry. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 05:45, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I withdraw my nomination Ok guys, I get it. Thanks anyway. --Cart (talk) 07:14, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
