Support A melancholic winter view of a park in Potsdam (near Berlin) --AngMoKio 10:27, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support A calm place for a winter walk.. --Eirissa 12:50, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral Everyone loves non-trampled snow, but the picture is noisy, ruining the effect. Kulshrax 15:22, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral I like this picture a lot, pitty about the noise. What about croping most part of the snow in the foreground? - Alvesgaspar 17:38, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - don't care for b/w - MPF 23:26, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment the fact you don't care about b/w doesn't make any b/w picture less good. And (at least to me and apparently to others) this picture is good. I don't mean to be "harsh" or something but why not keeping from voting a FP candidate when you know from start you won't like the subject because of your tastes and not the qualities of the picture itself, which is what is being judged here ?

Support Like it a lot, nice composition, and noise isn't such a big issue here I believe. Benh 11:12, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose -- BW, no wow factor, not FP quality. Lycaon 16:05, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support Excellent composition, very evocative, noise problems not overhwelming. ~ trialsanderrors 00:09, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment This still needs to be switched to greyscale, there is no reason to keep this in RGB mode. ~ trialsanderrors 00:47, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support A colour version wouldn't have the same impact. --Tony Wills 11:40, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edit #3

Info Noise reduced, contrast enhanced with curves; I also switched the color mode to greyscale, which reduces the file size. ~ trialsanderrors 04:36, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support I think it's the closest to version 1 which I already support. As has been said, very nice mood. Benh 11:35, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edit #4, not featured

Info taking up Alvesgaspars idea i created a cropped version of the original. It is not noise reduced as i dont have a good method for it. --AngMoKio 09:23, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
~~Support~~ - Beautiful. I'll wait for someone of good will to apply the noise reduction. Alvesgaspar 09:27, 9 April 2007 (UTC) Moved my vote to next version Alvesgaspar 19:07, 9 April 2007 (UTC) [reply]

Edit #5

Support Very nice mood and composition. This is as #4 but with conservative noise reduction applied (I also tried some additional sharpening, but in my opinion it spoiled the mood of the image and created some additional halos) --Thermos 10:19, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Per above Alvesgaspar 11:49, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - don't care for b/w. Is there a colour original? - MPF 23:26, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Foreground is part of the compostion. ~ trialsanderrors 00:01, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support -- Black and white photos are excellent in conveying light contrasts, which works well with the naked trees and the snow here. The empty bench and the "constructedness" of the dome works very well together to add to that "cold" feeling. Anrie 11:26, 18 April 2007 (UTC) (Liked the previous edits too, btw.)[reply]
