- Oppose per Benh, and the entire image looks overprocessed and unnaturally HDR-ish at 100 percent view with many overexposed parts, especially on the altar. --Kreuzschnabel 08:36, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Commonists, at ISO 80 the A7R IV has one less stop of dynamic range vs. the 100 base ISO ([1]), which may help to explain the clipped highlights. I would suggest reserving the low ISO settings for situations where you need to decrease shutter speed and don't have an ND filter handy --Julesvernex2 (talk) 09:39, 22 November 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Decline in image quality in background takes it out of FP consideration before I even consider the issue of the benches. Looks like it's becoming a painting back there ... which might be neat if that was the intention. Daniel Case (talk) 04:23, 28 November 2021 (UTC)

- Info The Golden Gate Bridge partially covered in fog. While the north tower is bathed in evening light, the south tower is almost completely shrouded. Created, uploaded and renominated by -- Radomianin (talk) 00:00, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment This photo I have unsuccessfully nominated on September 25, 2021, but would like to try it again, because I think it is FP-worthy, despite the narrow rejection with 7 out of 11 votes. It deserves a second chance. One of the main counterarguments was that there are already too many FPs of the Golden Gate Bridge. But there is no FP in which one tower is completely shrouded in fog and the other is in sunshine. Another counterargument was that the fog is disturbing for the eyes of the viewer. But it is exactly this negative energy that makes the picture fascinating. On the left the usual imposing side in the light and on the right the dark, shrouded side — as if it were being devoured by a demon. If you deal with the Golden Gate Bridge, you cannot avoid its immeasurably sad side, the fates of the many suicides. When I took the photo that day, I couldn't help but think of this tragedy, why its beauty attracts so many desperate souls. I think the photo symbolizes the ambivalence of beauty and sadness of this bridge.
The bridge has fascinated me even as a young man as one of the strongest symbols of freedom in the United States. Its Art deco design is timeless, and visiting it was an unattainable dream from an early age because I grew up in the former East Germany. When I was able to visit it in 2019, this dream came true. -- Radomianin (talk) 00:00, 23 November 2021 (UTC) - Support -- Radomianin (talk) 00:00, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I'd refer everyone to my previous statement in opposition to a feature, and I also criticize you for renominating a photo that lost 11-7-1 less than two months ago, because I don't think it will produce a different result (11-7-1 is not a close loss, despite your characterization of it), nor that it is a good use of anyone's time. Why don't you look for another photo to nominate - if not one of yours, one by another photographer? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:03, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you sincerely for your criticism and also for the advice on nominating other photos, Ikan. Because I find this picture so special, I wanted to try it again. Unfortunately, I could not find any rules on Commons about the period after which a photo may be nominated again. If I have made a rule violation I apologize very much. In this case I would withdraw the nomination immediately. Many regards :) -- Radomianin (talk) 08:18, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- You haven't violated any rule, it's just unusual for a renomination with no change to the photo to succeed 2 months after losing. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:41, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- Perhaps the guidelines should be changed. Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:01, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- We've discussed that before, and the consensus has been that voting takes care of that. And it does. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:53, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose While I like this specific view, I don't see anything special in this capture. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 05:09, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- Support Repeating my previous statement, we have got quite some FPs of the Golden Gate Bridge, about four of them with fog, but none of them offers (as this one does) the impression that the bridge seems to lead right from sunshine into the dark clouds; so this photograph is special for me. --Aristeas (talk) 09:10, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose per my !vote the first time around. Daniel Case (talk) 04:24, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
- Support I understand the argument about there being a large amount of FP's of the Golden Gate Bridge, but this photograph is simply stunning, and insanely hard to capture. The chance of this happening I would guess is quite rare, along with the great lighting. I see a lot of merit to this photo, and differentiation from the other photos, to support this. -- Lectrician2 (talk) 01:18, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Question Do you think fog over the bridge is unusual, or are you referring to some other aspect of the photo? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:24, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

- Info The Burning of the Houses of Lords and Commons, by Joseph Mallord William Turner, is an oil painting of 1834, 92 x 123 cm.

- Info This beautiful photo I found on WLE Russia, I think it is FP worthy. The picture shows the Tolbachik region on the Kamchatka Peninsula. The title means something like Rainbow over volcanic cones, I guess. There are still a few categories missing on the file description page. I would like to invite all reviewers for related category suggestions. Many thanks in advance :)

- Comment I have been looking at this image for a couple of days. It attracts but it seems more Photoshopped than real. Rainbows come from diffusion of light by water molecules or very fine particulates in the atmosphere. I have yet to capture any rainbow, even near the ends, where the colors are this brilliant without some post-processing augmentation. If the photographer would like to speak to this, I would be interested in his/her comments. --GRDN711 (talk) 05:44, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for your thoughts on the image. When I saw it for the first time I also thought of a Photoshop processing. After some analysis and comparison, I decided to nominate it because images like this are indeed possible. Maybe you can reach the author via a ping or on his discussion page. However, I am afraid that he is one of those photographers who almost exclusively participate in Commons challenges like WLE, WLF or WLM. But according to my research he is also active and present on other platforms under his nickname Ted.ns. Many regards :) -- Radomianin (talk) 09:18, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Rainbows often tend to be brightest at the bottom, and at 112 mm, this is a very tightly framed composition. It's like how the sky is really blue on an ultrawide but pretty bland on a telephoto, but this time it's reversed. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:03, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

- Neutral Very well-executed, with a good composition and the right lighting conditions (I don't think this subject would look very good on a harsh sunny day). But it's missing a bit of oomph (such as shooting at twilight which also has even lighting but would be more aesthetically pleasing), and 9 MP on a 1/2.3" sensor is not state-of-the-art anymore for a consumer-priced drone. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 18:49, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

- I actually have a photo from the other side, but I just don't think it has the full effect. The 1/2 dome, and the score board add a lot. Personally, the lighting on the other photo is better, but it just doesn't have the full illustrative value. Lectrician2 (talk) 04:42, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Located in the freguesia ("civil parish") of Angústias and based on a former hermitage founded by the island's first settlers, it was rebuilt and inaugurated in 1675. A new construction campaign was probably started soon after as in 1684, the church was consecrated to Nossa Senhora das Angústias and made parish. In 1800, new works took place, this time to erect the new and current building, which took a long time since it was only in 1861. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 08:37, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

- Well, I uploaded a new version, but it's just a minor change to some tones. The clouds are likely Photoshoppable, but that feels like a bit much. I quite like the clouds, anyway, sandwiched between the parts of the building and sort of "sitting" on it. I tried it in B+W per below, but the resulting mood didn't seem right.

- Oppose If we view it as a normal composition, there is insufficient foreground interest to draw the viewer in. If we view it as a minimalist composition, the texture of the water is far too complicated and distracting.

- @Ikan Kekek Totally not an expert, but I'll give it a try: The way the fisheye distorts the the outer parts of the frame harmonizes well with the round shape of the apse. To me, it feels very natural and organic in this case. It's as if I'm standing right there, looking at the altar with the apse in my peripheral vision softly enclosing everything (this seems to be one of those images that work best on a large screen). A rectilinear shot taken in the same spot would very likely come with its own kind of distortions that would probably look worse. Stepping back and shooting with a longer lens is of course an option, but I doubt it would result in the same kind of intimacy. El Grafo (talk) 10:04, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

- Regretful oppose Though I do like your scenery photographs in general, I have to agree with KoH here. While it’s certainly not a bad shot, you should have been closer to the middle tree and perhaps move a bit to the right to shift Heidelstein transmitter out of the frame, and get a bit more backlight. --Kreuzschnabel 15:58, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment No problem. The transmitter is an important landmark there. So I took care to have it in the image. Isn't the icy bracing not an eye-catcher? --Milseburg (talk) 20:18, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I know the transmitter is a very dominant feature up there :) – of course it’s not "bad" to have it in the frame but even then, it would be better to stand closer to the middle tree to get a link from near to far. --Kreuzschnabel 22:09, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

- Info Two Poplars in the Alpilles near Saint-Rémy, by Vincent Van Gogh, Cleveland Museum of Art. Van Gogh painted this autumnal landscape while at an asylum near Saint-Rémy in southern France. Although at first limited to painting from memory in his room, he soon resumed working outdoors. This painting reveals the full power of his mature style. Trees twist and lean against a darkening sky, while the intense colors applied with charged brushstrokes convey his emotional reaction to the subject.

- Info Another nice landscape photo from WLE 2021. The title of the picture means something like Wintry Taganay. It shows Mount Otkliknoy Greben in the Taganay range on the border of Europe and Asia (southern Ural Mountains). The related FP Gallery link does not exist yet. According to my research, it should be named: Ural Federal District. I propose to create it if the nomination has been successful. Suggestions for related categories on the file page are very welcome. Thanks in advance :)

- Support Great shot. @Basile: Yes, you're right. Although I usually get good results at 1/2000. It all depends on the lighting situation. In the past, I most often had problems with bird-in-flight shots, because I felt the noise of my camera's sensor only allowed for 800 ISO. But after having tested a loaner R6 for some time, it seems like Canon improved things with the R series. Also, having eye-autofocus and image stabilization (my old 400mm didn't have any and my camera neither) helps in a big way. Amitiés, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:22, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- I don't think 1/3200 is needed for large birds like this in flight. Perhaps a fast speed was chosen because of the certainty of camera shake - unstable platform, high wind? Frank, you are right that the R6 allows you to try ISO 3200 or even 6400. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:33, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- Another learning: I had been using an old version of Topaz Denoise for years. When I recently switched to the new Topaz Denoise AI, I realized how much the performance had actually improved. Did anyone else have a similar experience, or are you using other tools? --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 14:28, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- I use Topaz Denoise AI on auto setting for every image. Can't be bothered to play around. I have stopped using Topaz Sharpen AI. Sharpening artefacts are too intrusive. I sometimes give a light 'brush' of sharpen on the eye area in Photoshop CS6 afterwards. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:41, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- FWIW about 1/2500 is the empirically derived minimum for big birds sitting on a boat in swell using a 500 or a 600. That still results in motion blurred shots some of the time though. I usually go for the maximum available for small birds moving relative to the frame.

We have already got the TIFF file for the archival version, so IMHO for preview usage here and in articles a JPEG file is still the best solution. And it has worked now :–). We can trick the server by first uploading a downscaled version and then uploading over it the full resolution with the help of this tool. --Aristeas (talk) 10:53, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Aristeas: You shouldn't need to upload a downscaled version first, BTW. All you have to do is to go to the not-yet-existing file page for a new file, and click the "upload (chunked)" link in the "Create" tab. That's how I uploaded the original TIFF file.

- Comment While I "have you all here", could I ask for some help to decipher the names of the committee members who made the map? Their signatures are in the bottom of the top left "box" of the map, but I also uploaded just the signatures to Imgur for convenience. What I can make out is: Lars And:[ers/reas?] Skodal (not sure about the "k"); Jörgen N. Holm; Nicolai ?: Krogh (no idea about the middle initial); Gustaf Hallvin (not sure about the "v"); Eric Wetterstedt (not sure about the "d"); Gabr:[iel] Berns:[???] Westman (not sure about the middle name at all). Jon Harald Søby (talk) 22:55, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- "Lars And: Thodal, Jörgen N: Holm, Nicolai F: Krogh, Gustaf Halldin, Eric Wetterstedt, Gabr: Bend: Westman" – as for the abbreviated middlenames, you could ask someone who's familiar with Norwegian history of the 18th century (although the 18th century is my field of expertise, I could only help w/ French and German names of that time period). E.g. your guess of "And:" → "Anders" sounds reasonable, but you might want to ask an expert about other common names of that time that would fit. Hope that helps.

- Info Thanks to Julesvernex2 and Milseburg for noticing the issues. I made a new panorama from scratch, in order to minimize the small stitching errors (due indeed to parallax, I believe). As to the different "whites" on the let and on the right they are probably due to the different viewing angles of a surface that is illuminated by parallel rays. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:10, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Striking composition but bad artifacts. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:38, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Regretful oppose per Ikan – the quality is just not there. Magenta cast on clouds, overexposed spots, sharpening haloes around the edges, and the shadows a bit too dark. Another striking image that definitely deserved a better equipment and/or careful processing. --Kreuzschnabel 15:03, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I disagree. This is not an image of a dead church interior taken on a tripod with no people nor heavenly presence. It is street photography taken in an instant when the elements are there connecting trekkers along Hadrian's Wall to this English sycamore and all of tis history. This is where the wow comes from. There are lots of other images that document this same tree but not like this one.
- As far as quality goes, having already attained QI and VI ratings, I would propose that, while not perfect, it is good enough. The best camera is the one you have in your hands, not the one you wish for. As a basis for comparison, here is an [image of this tree] that is already an FP.
- More reviews are welcome. --GRDN711 (talk) 23:24, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment You should know by now that "this was the best I could take under the circumstances" is hardly ever a valid argument here – we judge the result. Then, I think a good picture speaks for itself and would not need explanations about where the wow is supposed to come from. The other image you’re talking about (link is broken) is a completely different thing, an artful composition of light and shadow that has nothing to do with the tree itself or its importance for walkers, so it would work with many other trees as well, and passed very tightly at 11-5-3 votes. --Kreuzschnabel 06:51, 1 December 2021 (UTC) As for composition: The tree is a bit too far off-center, and I would prefer to have more of its shadow. Maybe a third frame added to the right, with the tree centered between the hillsides, would have generated lots more of wow. --Kreuzschnabel 07:02, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
Alternative edit
- Comment @Kreuzschnabel: I took a third frame but initially felt a panorama of 2 frames made the trekkers more visible. Here is an alternative panorama from three frames that shows the balance you mention. Your thoughts? --GRDN711 (talk) 13:17, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- Much finer composition at least. --Kreuzschnabel 14:41, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Agreed, but the image quality still isn't there. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:05, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose While I like the idea of shooting this tree from a slightly less common angle, and including the hikers, this one just doesn't make it as FP. Even if the image quality didn't break down into Cézanne-esque abstractions on either side, the sky is still too pale and the light too harsh for me for this to work.

- Oppose My first impression was an oppose only minutes after the nomination was placed. Too busy, too harsh light, too flashy. Then I thought it might be just sort of an expectation bias on my side, since an image like this is surely unusual among FPC. So I decided to give it a few days, but sorry, I don’t get warm with it. It’s a very fine and cheerful instant without any doubt, and a valuable picture of it, but not that outstanding in terms of composition or photographic skills to be featured. The skin tones are too pale in places (I am perfectly aware that the glaring stage light here is very hard to handle), and the red is completely oversaturated. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a fine image, I just don’t think it’s one of our very finest ones. --Kreuzschnabel 11:07, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Sorry, I’ve tried several times now but I don’t get warm with the hazy sky, the dull light and the overall softness of this one. Should be crisper to get the colours shining. --Kreuzschnabel 13:18, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per the previous vote. IMO overcast sky and browning leaves don't go well together, it would look better in the sun. Buidhe (talk) 14:41, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
- Support Of course a blue sky and gloriously bright sunshine may be more attractive at the first glance, but haze belongs to the autumn just as well as the colourful foliage. The delicate haze gives this photo a more subtle, somewhat dreamy atmosphere; it is of a meditative beauty which I like very much. --Aristeas (talk) 14:41, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Yes, I would love to have a piercing azure blue sky, but as it is the sky isn't the first thing you look at in this image, and what you do look at ... well, I don't live in Vermont but I live reasonably close enough, and that is fall in that New England state most associated with that season. — Daniel Case (talk) 20:02, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose There's definitely a potential here, because the diversity of the colors is rich. However, I agree with Kreuzschnabel the sky is hazy and the light dull. Compare for example with this one recently promoted, there a huge difference (sky and trees). The composition is fine, but because of the faded colors, the image does not blow me away. -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:54, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Looks nice, but for this camera and in 2021, I'd expect the resolution to be higher for FP.--Peulle (talk) 13:56, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- The original file size of this photo is just 5472 x 3648 px which is the maximum size, it's not a 40+ MP camera. It makes a lot of sense for a photographer, not to photograph at the long end of the tele lense (70–200 mm, as you can see in the EXIF) but to crop to their needs. Certainly, I could have left much more water and floor (including an ugly effluent) around it but it made way more sense to crop for the best parts of the photo. And it's still more than a quarter of the maximum size, and nothing was downscaled just in case that was implied (I never do that). Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:40, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose A picture of a dive would be more interesting. An accredited photographer should be able to get some nice shots. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:56, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- Sure, pick your favourite photo out of my 10,000+ files from this event and nominate it for FP. :) I do have hundreds of favourite jump photos from this event alone. But this photo, in contrast is a unique shot among all of these which I took in similar positions as this is part of the dive, too! Just like inruns, jumps, underwater action or emerging photos like this one. Why should they be mutually exclusive? Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:40, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- I had a look at the first few hundred, that was more than enough. I am surprised you are not more selective in what you upload. Looking online, the diving images I like all have water as the background - like the one you've nominated. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:45, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose While it’s certainly unusual and funny to show the head of the boy fully covered in water, the title is at least misleading – this is not a picture about a diving competition (even if it’s taken on that occasion). As for quality. the focus is on his fingernails instead of his face, so it’s mostly a bit soft. --Kreuzschnabel 13:48, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

If you could make a crop work (and maybe straighten the edge of the pool), it might stand a chance. Daniel Case (talk) 06:16, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

- I agree with you, Basile. Also, this one offers more details due to the bigger sensor. Now, with that being said, the first pintail shot was taken with a 5D Mk IV and a 400mm unstabilized lens, which – as I now realize – was so much more difficult given that I had to hit the focus without any kind of eye-autofocus support that the new mirrorless RF cameras offer. A guy that I'm following on YouTube even went so far as to state that taking bird-in-flight images like this with a modern camera felt "like cheating" :-) --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 02:05, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Thank you very much for your nomination. Interesting motif with a striking atmosphere. Imho, however, it has been overprocessed. For example, the prominently created lens blur. Very pity, I'm sorry. In addition, the photo needs at least a rudimentary categorization. -- Radomianin (talk) 12:20, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Absolute cool shot, but visible noise and artifacts. A pity. --Basotxerri (talk) 19:03, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Overprocessed in my opinion. Looking at other pictures of this photographer (like this one or that one), the post-treatment goes too far. This is a picture shot with a mobile phone, and the settings (1/1,582 sec, f/2.2, ISO 32) don't seem optimum to me -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:36, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Very cool and perfect for an album cover etc., but sorry, considering that it was taken with a mobile phone (which due to the tiny sensor has got extreme DoF) it is clear that the unsharpness is completely artificial. IMHO one should get in each photo the best out of what the camera offers – i.e., in mobile phone photos, make good use of the extreme DoF – and not pretent that the photo was taken with a completely different kind of camera and lens. --Aristeas (talk) 11:33, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

- Info The original file of this magical photo won the sixth place at WLE 2021 UAE. It shows the Hajar range in the Emirate of Ra's Al-Khaimah. In the lower third of the original version is visible some noise/grain. Therefore, I nominate the denoised version. I could not find a relevant FP gallery. My proposal is:

- Cropped and slightly sharpened. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 01:58, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

- Color banding fixed. The ground is slightly sharpened, but given that it consist a very small portion of the frame, it can be very difficult to even resolve detail there. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 01:59, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Another fine image less finely taken, sorry if I’m rude. This is certainly a nice "blue hour" moment but the quality is just not there: oversharpened to compensate for loss of detail – this never works well. Further, sides leaning in (easy to fix at the expense of further quality loss), arbitrary composition with two buildings cut off at the sides. Why 1/100 sec at such a high ISO? There’s not much moving in the frame, you could easily have shot this at 200 ISO and 1/15 sec. High ISOs affect quality. --Kreuzschnabel 12:28, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Welcome to FPC, Matthew T Rader! When you read my comment, keep in mind that featured pictures are supposed to be the best of the best. That said: Poor quality at high or even moderate resolution (therefore, I'd vote against a QI nomintion, too). Otherwise, composition is OK but not exceptional. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:04, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- Regretful oppose Great light and good composition, yet poor quality. Keep ISO low at longer exposure times. A tripod is almost a must for shots like this. Image is tilted clockwise. I'd crop off the rightmost quarter to get a balanced composition. --Kreuzschnabel 12:33, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose See Kreuzschnabel's comments to achieve a better result next time. Furthermore, there are perspective issues: avoid tilt and leaning verticals for this kind of images. I recommend to nominate images at COM:QIC first and follow the guidelines described there. --Uoaei1 (talk) 16:05, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- Regretful oppose per Kreuzschnabel. Going to full-size from thumb is like listening to the first notes of the TV show's theme song and then suddenly having the needle pulled off the record (not that that happens anymore, but the sound effect is still there).

- I have no idea what type of set up the photographer used, but I have seen groups of hummingbird photographers use elaborate studio boxes with sugar-coated flowers, artifical backgroun boards and automatic triggers for camera and a set of flash guns. I've also seen this type of set-up used. Nothing wrong with these set-ups, but it might be helpful to reveal the techniques used. Some butterfly photographers use artificial backgrounds too.

- Oppose per others.--Peulle (talk) 11:00, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment To give this picture a little love: IMHO this is indeed a very good photo; it captures the special subdued light and atmosphere of a winter’s day and manages to show why even a normal rail track in some average outskirts or suburb can appear really beautiful thanks to the winter’s soft magic. It reminds me of countless rail journeys (and many train failures ;–) during my studies. The problem is, as Uoaei1 has stated rightly, that we do not see much of the train. If I imagine the topography correctly, this is a problem of the location: the free space and therefore the view is too limited here and the railway bend too small to offer such a spledid panorama of the whole train as we are used to see from other rail transport FPs; and at the same time the rail track itself is not as remarkable as the other “Rail tracks” FPs. Maybe you can find some other location where the view is wider and therefore you have a better chance to show a panorama of the whole train; or some other place where the rail track itself is even more picturesque. All the best, --Aristeas (talk) 09:37, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

- Your camera has jpg settings that change white balance and probably colour balance/saturation etc. - when you say straight from the camera, was that RAW or neutral/faithful jpg (these are Canon words not Nikon)? Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:49, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- The jpgs are set to "standard", which is a the factory default and something I never changed. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 00:50, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, that explains it. The 'standard' setting adds saturation, particularly on blues, because that's what most consumers like. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:19, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- If that's the case, this is certainly not bluer than File:Mount Sir Donald panorama.jpg, for example. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 23:46, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

- Regretful very weak oppose A beautiful scene. And I'm OK with the colors. But while the processing is better than on the other ones, we still have unnatural-looking snow patches almost everywhere there are snow patches, plus the side of the mountain at left next to the clouds looks rather weird. Daniel Case (talk) 20:50, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, but this is starting to get ridiculous. I've already provided the original panorama frame where snow looks exactly the same as in the final product. And why would anyone expect snow in the middle of summer to look the same as the stuff that has freshly fallen to begin with?.. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 23:27, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- I don't. But I do think snow in photographs, whatever time of year, should look like snow, and not globs of white paint dribbled into it.
I mean, you could have perhaps dialed down the exposure on the snow a bit. Look at this picture I took which also includes a distant summertime snow patch (well, a large aufeis, topped with crusted snow) in sunlight, in Canada (and above the Arctic Circle, yet!). It isn't perfect, I agree, but it looks like snow, not just some patch of white. Daniel Case (talk) 03:51, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

- Commonists, I believe Ikan Kekek is right, the corners in particular are not sharp (see for instance the cracks in the paint, which look blurry). If I may offer a suggestion for next time: don't shoot this lens at f1.8 when you need corner-to-corner sharpness, because its resolution wide open is abysmal anywhere except the centre ([5]). Instead, close down the aperture to f4 and let the shutter speed decrease to ~1/20s. The camera's image stabilisation should be able to handle that, but take a few shots just in case. -- Julesvernex2 (talk) 12:28, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

- Comment What’s wrong about bad weather? Images on FPC should only be sterile bright images made in sunny days? And what’s so wrong about dark images and darkness if it shows special weather conditions and precisely captures the scene? Overcast days and stormy skies make dramatic scenes and great light for photography. --Argenberg 12:57, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment The landscape lacks details in my opinion, because it's too dark, completely plunged into darkness. The sky is gray but not spectacular. It might have been an intense moment for the walker, but the photo does not communicate special colors or textures -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:52, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Charles. --Fischer.H (talk) 18:07, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Basile. Feels like sort of a near miss ... like it was taken from a passing airplane and the photographer knew s/he would have no other chance to take it so they might as well make the best of what they had. Moody, dramatic and atmospheric to be sure, but those qualities do not automatically add up to FP. Daniel Case (talk) 22:07, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment It’s a wrong preposition to expect some set level of detail and color in every picture. In the world there are moments when colors and textures are muted by light and atmospheric conditions. This picture looks dark because darkness is there. It is late evening time before dusk and the valley is filled with dense atmospheric mist (fog) which obscures the mountain valley ahead. The image has relatively small color variations, which again might not be its weakness but may be its strength, yet provides enough texture for such an intense moment. The image may not reveal a lot of micro texture because of the fog and dense cloud cover, but has enough macro detail to be interesting. It shows the grand scale of the mountain range and dramatic atmospheric conditions after heavy rain just before sunset. I believe the intensity of the moment is well preserved and additional ‘colors and textures’ are not to be expected in this case and would only distract from the moment. It’s just a translation of the original raw file with minimal level processing in Lightroom. It sounds like an attempt to judge with a wrong set of criteria to make every image look ‘appealing’ with a set level of colors. In the world all kind of places. All around are different moments, no two moments are the same. --Argenberg 00:21, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Right, but while lots of photos are valuable, FP is in great part about photos that are spectacular. And it's hard to second-guess which photos people do or don't feel wowed by. Photos of other planets are different because they're so uncommon. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:12, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment The full-resolution image taken by the panoramic camera onboard the Opportunity MER-B Mars Exploration Rover showing the rocky surface of Mars. The landscape lacks detail due to dust. The sky is not spectacular. The photo does not communicate special colors or textures. Images from Mars are monochromatic because of the special Mars atmosphere and frequent dust storms. Martian dust storms can spread across the whole planet and envelope it in darkness for many sols (Martian days). I believe we could expect images from Titan to be more spectacular but they would also lack color and texture because of frequent monsoonal methane rains driven by seasonal change and its hazy nitrogen atmosphere. How alien and strange it would be to experience the weather on Saturnian moons. --Argenberg 00:29, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Don't get upset Argenberg, nobody said it was bad or ugly, it's just a matter of taste. --Commonists 22:04, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
- Weak oppose A nice effort and quite atmospheric but for me it should be a little sharper and I have seen this kind of moody, misty photo done in a more interesting way, the light is a tiny bit flat Cmao20 (talk) 15:22, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

- Info This is the Stonewall Inn, a landmark of the gay rights movement due to the Stonewall Riots. This photo was taken the day after it was formally designated a National Monument. It is also the end of Pride month (which began to commemorate the riots). Front-and-center, however, is a memorial to the victims of the Orlando nightclub shooting. I've debated nominating a photo from this set for years. It's just such a powerful moment in time when people were celebrating and grieving. In hindsight, there are lots of things I wish I had done differently with the photo. Technically, it's not my best, but the subject is worth a nomination, so I went back and tried to fix some of the issues and giving it a chance. all by — Rhododendrites talk | 23:30, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

- It's documentation of a confluence of historic events. That it happens to be the history of gay rights apparently means you can dismiss its significance as ... "just ... woke and politically correct"? You could just say you don't think it's technically good enough rather than insult the subject. — Rhododendrites talk | 01:49, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- It's definitely not technically good enough and it shouldn't be promoted just because it's documentary, that's saying documentation trumps quality which I vehemently disagree with.Seven Pandas (talk) 02:00, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

- Weak support I won't say there's no room for improvement in this. But this kind of ad-hoc memorial where people bring flowers and candles tends to look quite messy on pictures. This photograph, however, manages that chaos unusually well: flowers at the bottom; posters in the center, framed by the brick wall. Another problem with this kind of memorial is, that they mostly look the same until you zoom in and decipher the text on the signs. But this one has the pub's neon sign right in the center, making this a non-issue. -El Grafo (talk) 10:07, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- Support As a free educational media repository, an image with high documentary value should be highly prized. I can see this image being used while many of our technically perfect images of churches or birds are unloved. Strong political images are valuable regardless of whether one agrees with the political message. I find it distasteful to see culture-war language being used above. Please can we keep Commons neutral and out of the culture wars. -- Colin (talk) 10:40, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Colin: you got a lot of gall talking about distasteful conduct on commons. I still think it's a cluttered poor photo that does not warrant FP. The rules here are as firm as a marshmellow, so I'm leaving commons. Seven Pandas (talk) 23:01, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support -- Domob (talk) 12:29, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Breathtaking resolution of course, but I have to address two issues: 1. Saturation is too high. Oh yes, it is. Especially visible on the red flags and the orange cranes right of center. 2. Image looks a bit overprocessed altogether (I’d call it "tonemapping to the limit"), resulting in the city (and the background mountains) being unnaturally bright compared to the sky and cloud bottoms. --Kreuzschnabel 16:32, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- For me the worst offender in terms of saturation is the color of the sky. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:59, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback! I see what you mean, and will reprocess the panorama from sources; I hope to have a new version by tomorrow. --Domob (talk) 17:53, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- Done I've reprocessed the image now from raws, toning down saturation and related settings; Rawtherapee's "tone mapping" was not turned on at all, nor does the panorama use any fancy HDR tone-mapping. Note that the red flags on the Bundeshaus are very striking even in the original frames without any saturation applied at all in post processing (I explicitly checked that). King of ♥, Kreuzschnabel, please let me know if the image is better now. The sky and background are definitely less blueish, and saturation should be a bit less in general. --Domob (talk) 19:11, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
- Now there’s a yellow-brownish cast all over it. I don’t think I’m going to fall in love with this one. --Kreuzschnabel 12:37, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- Do you mean that WB is now too warm, and it should be in the middle of previously and now? Or that you think in general it is fine, and you just don't think this picture per se is FP? I'm happy to try adjusting the WB further if it seems still off. --Domob (talk) 14:13, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

- Done Agreed, sorry for taking it too far (and all the changes). The WB is now between the previous versions and hopefully more balanced. --Domob (talk) 16:52, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- OK, the white balance is good now, but actually blue saturation is still a little too high; I also think blacks should be more pronounced/darker to improve contrast. I see you've redone the sky at the top left, but now there's a different repeated cloud pattern. If you're going to fill in some fake sky, you have to do it in a convincing manner. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:18, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
- Done I've adjusted blue saturation and the black point. Thanks again for all the valuable feedback you give! It doesn't look like this will pass with great support anyway, but at least the picture itself is getting better. --Domob (talk) 05:51, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support Valuable panorama, and the yellow light seems plausible to me, though I'd welcome the opportunity to see another version of the white balance. Is this a cylindrical projection? I don't think most ordinary viewers would know that "Panoramic view" means "cylindrical projection," so I consider it important to spell out if such a distortion is used. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:06, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Yes, this is a cylindrical projection -- that is mentioned already in the file description, although rather at the end than the beginning. Do you think that is not explicit enough? As to the WB, there are at least three versions in the revisions now -- one that is colder than the current one, and one that is warmer. I think the current one is a good balance now (again lots of thanks to King of Hearts). --Domob (talk) 08:27, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment The filename merely has "panorama" in it. To ordinary viewers, that word just suggests a view with a broad geographic scope. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:51, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I'm sorry, I really can read when I put my mind to it...Anyway, yes, what's in your file description is fine... -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:21, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Ok cool, thanks for the clarification. It is definitely not mentioned very prominently, so I wasn't sure if you perhaps meant that I should reword the description or something (anyway feel free to suggest or just do any clarifications you think would help, of course). --Domob (talk) 05:15, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

- Info Gorgonian (Leptogorgia sarmentosa), Arrábida Natural Park, Portugal. It's a species of colonial soft coral, a Gorgonian sea fan in the family Gorgoniidae. It is native to the eastern Atlantic Ocean and the western Mediterranean Sea. It forms a branching, tree-like structure that can grow to a height of 60 cm (24 in). The colour of the coenenchyme (the thin fleshy external covering) is usually orange but may instead be yellow, white, red or purple. The polyps are very small and are the same colour as the rest of the coral. They are arranged randomly around the branches. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 19:50, 12 December 2021 (UTC)

- Unrelated to FPC but after this nom is approved/rejected the file should probably be moved to "Spoon Lake, British Columbia" as it's an ambiguous name. There are other Spoon Lakes, eg the one in Minnesota is better known. Buidhe (talk) 17:01, 12 December 2021 (UTC)

OpposeThe pictures definitely have wow, good job, but I don't see any reasons for a set here, it's again a randomed group of photographs. The don't complement each other to a whole. Furthermore the crop is similar, but not identical and some colors are too close to each other. Poco a poco (talk) 10:07, 14 December 2021 (UTC)- Support I like the multi-part representation of a subject in this form to highlight differences. Each one is appealing and atmospheric. Also, in this case, it's a better solution than a FPC set nomination. -- Radomianin (talk) 10:39, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, I confirm this is not a set. There's only one picture nominated here. It is a montage like the four seasons we find sometimes in postcards or posters. The idea of a set was suggested by Ikan Kekek last February on QIC, but I was not sure a set would match the criterias. Hence a different solution to display this diversity of colors gathered in just one picture. Thank you very much. -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:38, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support Unusual and very nice. That said, I wonder if we should revise our set criteria. The fundamental idea of a FP set is that the images must be "closely bound" in some way. And yet there is nothing more closely bound than assembling a collage out of images. This leads to the strange situation where this nomination would qualify under the rules for a single image but not a set, even though it is strictly more useful as the latter (a relatively simple layout like this can be done using wiki formatting). We currently have allow "works notable in their own right, which the original author clearly intended to be viewed as a set", but maybe we should also allow "images intended by their author to be assembled into a collage and viewed as a single image". -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:18, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
- Regardless of whatever rules we have for whether a set nomination would be permitted, it would still fail. Each image in a set has to be FP worthy and I don't actually think any of the images here would pass. Compare also File:Paisley Abbey New Gargoyles.jpg and File:Epilobium hirsutum - Seed head - Triptych.jpg. A montage is a perfectly reasonable way of collecting images where individually they might be meh but together their differences and combination is more than the sum of the parts. I totally dread if this sort of image collection was a set...."During lock down, I took the same image out of my bedroom window for 365 days and I hereby nominate the set of every day, and overnight expect to become the photographer with the most featured pictures on Commons....". We've had a bit too many set nominations recently imo. -- Colin (talk) 18:01, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

- Weak Oppose: This has great elements, but the composition is not quite great for me. I've given some thought to whether cropping out the rightmost third would make it an FP for me or not, and I'm unsure. I understand not wanting to crop out that much of the clouds, but that much of the trees and the hill on the right aren't cooperating with my eyes. Also, on the left, a bit of a crop would be ideal in terms of the trees but would crop out part of a sunray. It looks like no-one else agrees with me, and of course that's completely OK. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:39, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Weak oppose That's an image with a little of everything, but all these little things together don't concur for something exceptional in my view. The backlighting light does not help to highlight the autumn colors (overall it's more a dark mix). The trees and mountains have flat shapes. The lower right corner of grass is a bit boring -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:31, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
- Support.--Vulp❯❯❯here! 03:31, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per others. Sunrays and autumn trees but both are common and only average here. This isn't a great landscape composition. Particularly the grass at the bottom. -- Colin (talk) 19:01, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I agree with Ikan here, sorry. Poco a poco (talk) 10:09, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose This might work better with most of the sky cropped out and some of the bottom to bring more focus on the trees. Also, it should be renamed to make it clear that this is not a picture of the highway but a view from it. (And one wants to know ... which peaks are visible? Any of the White Mountain 48?) Daniel Case (talk) 05:21, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

There are some lovely elements in this photo but they don't come together for a cohesive whole to me, and I agree the light seems slightly artificial; I know that it's not, but it still looks that way.

- Info Detail of the tomb of the architect Giovanni Battista Gislenni, designed by himself two years before he died. Church of Santa Maria del Popolo, Rome. The Latin legend reads Neque illic mortuus and is complemented by another one above (here), reading Neque hic vivus. That is, "Neither alive here or dead there". The meaning is elusive but may be related (in my quick interpretation) with his belief in eternal life... All by Alvesgaspar (talk) 16:35, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

I doubt that it's so hard to photograph that we should feature a photo of one with a slightly cropped tail. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:06, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Good point. A quick Flickr search for “Indian palm squirrel” finds 3.565 photos (there are probably more, as Flickr users often describe their photos insufficiently), many of them are very good. So it seems indeed rather easy to take photos of that species ... --Aristeas (talk) 15:29, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

- It is not an out of focus, but they are out of the dynamic range. In photos where it is not possible to use a tripod, speed must be sacrificed for depth of field. --Wilfredor (talk) 14:59, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Was there any need to crop three lamp shades (the nearest one is askew)? Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:38, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Nice scene with blue and yellow contrasting. There's some colour moire in the light fitting above the bar (the O glass shades). I think a square crop might eliminate the troubling left and focus on the more interesting bits. If you don't want to crop that far, a 4:3 crop removing the left will stop the left lamp shade appearing to slope. -- Colin (talk) 18:17, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Some noise may be inevitable in these kinds of shots, but you could selectively denoise the left background for a significant improvement in that area. An additional issue is that the crop is too close. Buidhe (talk) 01:36, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

- Info Common sole (Solea solea), Arrábida Natural Park, Portugal. The common sole is a species of flatfish in the family Soleidae. It lives on the sandy or muddy seabed of the northern Atlantic and the Mediterranean Sea where it often semi-immerses itself in the substrate as seen on the image. The small eyes are close to each other on the right side of the body. This gives the fish the possibility of lurking half-buried in the sand for passing prey. The common sole, just like all other flatfishes, hatches as an "ordinary" fish with one eye on each side of the body. The young metamorphose to flatfish when they are about one centimeter long. The upper side is greyish-brown and the underside is white. It grows to a maximum length of about 70 cm (28 in) although this exemplar was about 30 cm (12 in) long. The species is prized as a food fish, being caught mostly by trawling on the seabed. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 21:08, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support I don't know how this will be received at FPC since I have seen people express negative views towards camouflage photos before, but for me it's definitely pretty cool to see how the camouflage works. The focus on the fish is really good. Could you copy the above description to the file page? Cmao20 (talk) 02:41, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
- I copied the description. And yes, I agree with you. I know the little average enthusiasm here on FPC about camouflage motifs but for the common sole there is nothing more representative like this. It's the way wildlife is and the way nature works, and asking here for a better delimitation from the sourroundings wouldn't make much sense. Poco a poco (talk) 06:32, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Needs a lot of work to remove focus-stacking errors, expecially around periphery. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:37, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Diego, following our discussion on lighting setups and effective aperture, here our a few additional suggestions you may find useful:
- Helicon Focus often struggles with pre-processed raw images, particularly those that have been sharpened and denoised. Best to do only minor adjustments before the stacking (e.g. white balance, exposure matching) and apply the remaining edits to the stacked image
- Helicon's parameters (method A/B/C, radius and smoothing) have a dramatic effect on quality. There's no sure recipe that applies to all kinds of images, so best to play around with the settings (the batch function is great for this, as you can leave the computer running a bunch of combinations overnight). Personally, I usually get the best results with methods B/C, radius < 5 and smoothing = 1 (these settings maximise sharpness often at the expense of halos and artificats, which need to be cleaned up afterwards)
- The wavy path of the dust particles on the top right corner suggest a non-linear path of the focus rail. If you're using a manual rail this is usually due to backlash (slack caused by the manufacturing tolerance between the leadscrew and the carriage nut): to minimise it, never reverse the direction of the focus knob during the stack

I go point by point: 1) I've never come to the idea of processing frames before merging them; 2) I'm aware of the difference in the outcome to you get playing around with those paramenters, thanks for sharing your preferences; 3) good point, I didn't see that.

- Oppose because it's manipulated ("remove contrail and person") and doesn't show the reality, which in my opinion should not happen in an encyclopedia project. I am shocked that this is exactly what has been asked of by some here. --Stepro (talk) 22:32, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- Info What Commons is not: "Wikimedia Commons is not an encyclopedia". The guidelines at the top of COM:FPC also state: Remember, the goal of the Wikimedia Commons project is to provide a central repository for free images to be used by all Wikimedia projects, including possible future projects. This is not simply a repository for Wikipedia images, so images should not be judged here on their suitability for that project.
- Concerning the allegation of "manipulation", I wonder what is manipulation in photography. Is a long exposure manipulation of the reality, for example? Or focus stacking, light painting, etc?
- I also wonder what is the most faithful representation of this place: with or without the visitor? A walker is not a permanent statue.
- A very large amount of architecture photos are modified in post-process, because the Image guidelines require such transformations, for example walls should be vertical (we call that Perspective correction). But any post-treatment (light adjustment, dust spot removals, HDR composition, and so on), is manipulation.
- Apart from that, note that even photomontages are perfectly acceptable at FPC (and at Wikipedia too) -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:11, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- Call it as you want. A fake is a fake. And it's not the failt of the photographer, but of those, who expect a postcard idyll instead of reality. Yes, Commons is not Wikipedia. But it's also not Fakistan. Marcus Cyron (talk) 10:29, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yeah, call it as you want too.
- Had a glance at your uploads. Not postcard idyll indeed, but many of them could be improved (horizontality for example). Greetings -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:46, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- I don't think that mobile and fleeting elements are part of the reality of a place. If they are important to you or someone else while searching for an realistic image of this place, an other version is even offered here, where all those things are there (see file description). --Milseburg (talk) 11:53, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- Here you wrote: "I don't think that mobile and fleeting elements are part of the reality of a place."
- Above you wrote: "It is difficult to find this popular place without people."
- So what is the reality? This popular place with people or without? In my opinion in reality there are people as contrails as well, because people walking around there and planes flying over there.
- I'm really sorry to have this discussion here, maybe there is a better place. I think your photo is great and for sure a FP, but I think the demandings to manipulate it to become FP are absolutaly wrong. Stepro (talk) 12:13, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- I would support having a greater degree of realism here, but I'm not letting it affect my vote. I think it's fine that you are voting against a feature on that basis. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:36, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

- Comment @Stepro and Marcus Cyron: Neither the contrail nor the person are permanently seen at this spot, that means removing them is no fake. It's common practice here, and I don't see any ethical issues. Regards --A.Savin 14:29, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support Very expressive portrait. I also like the postprocessing. While cropping the head might be less common in other fields of photography, in portraiture, it's totally accepted (and yes, intended). I suggest studying the visual language of other fields of photography than the ones that are most common here (church interiors, trains-in-a-landscape, wildlife, architecture, macro).

- Oppose The issue isn't that there's a cropped head, but rather this crop, which is [to me] like the "what not to do" section in Jules' link above. I think if this shot were framed to be tighter around his head, or if he weren't looking upwards, it might be ok. In other words, the combination of the other three crops and the pose makes the top crop look strange to me. — Rhododendrites talk | 03:36, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

- Agree with Poco actually. Guess it's a side effect of the selective noise reduction. - Benh (talk) 08:55, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
- Denoise AI (which also sharpens on the standard settings that I use) produces halos on the underside of surfaces which you have to manually erase. It also gets confused where there are small areas of background (e.g. at the edges of the nest). Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:49, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Despite the excellent composition and mood, I'm not confortable with the technical quality. The lack of detail and overall fuzziness suggest the image may have been subjected to agressive denoising. But I may be wrong, of course. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:36, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
- It was shot at 100 iso, the best I could manage, but of course slightly underexposed to avoid blown highlights or burnt sky. Some noise appeared in post-process when adjusting the light to a normal level, and then removed with Topaz DenoiseAI, a professional software used with the standard parameters (here only 15%, thus quite moderate). Using the bracketing technique with longer exposure times to produce a HDR image was too complex due to the boat in movement intended to be frozen without motion blur.

In the best of cases it is preferable to carry out a selective unification by layers), focus problems on the person in the boat, finally please add the HDR appropriate category --Wilfredor (talk) 19:44, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

- Before sun sets, the rocks would certainly have been more illuminated, but the sky color less intense. And yes, the boat was there at the right moment, which is in my opinion something special, because rare. These fishermen navigated very carefully, and most of the time near the shore, lucky this time it was in the middle. Moreover, it seems extremely difficult to control the boat in these choppy waters. Concerning the NR, it was global, not selective. You can see the sky and the trees are quite good, because the brightness range was selected from this part. The rocks appear much darker, although the light was increased in post-treatment, that means they were almost black in my RAW (and noisy afterwards). In my experience, shooting in front of the sun almost always induces such a loss in detail -- Basile Morin (talk) 13:27, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

- Abstain -- Commonists 18:42, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Edges/corners are slightly unsharp. Now this is very impressive for f/1.8, but reproductions of paintings really need to be perfect to become FP, so that means optimal aperture using a tripod. If the museum doesn't allow tripods, then unfortunately, with some subjects it just isn't possible to make an FP. (By the way, I've noticed a weird speckled pattern in the blue background at the top, which seems to be a consistent trend across your photos of paintings. Could you share what NR and sharpening options you have applied?) -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:51, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
- I don't see these corners so bad, however I didn't use NR, at least voluntarily, and what do you mean by what sharpness profile? I don't have a profile I used the standard one, thanks.--Commonists 08:24, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Maybe I can help here to explain the pattern mentioned by King of Hearts. @Commonists: Did you take this photo in the raw image format, i.e., do you have a Sony *.ARW file, or did you take it in JPEG format, i.e., do you have an *.JPG file from the camera? --Aristeas (talk) 11:16, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
- According to the EXIF, you have edited this photo in Photoshop. Can you please share all the various adjustments you have applied in Photoshop (e.g. did you use Smart Sharpen, Unsharp Mask, etc. and all the parameters you used)? I'm trying to figure out what is causing this issue. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:30, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment This is just for the record now and of mere technical interest, of course, but I am still interested in the causes of that pattern, too. (Because it’s always good to learn what causes a certain problem, in order to avoid it and to help other users to avoid it.) According to Commonists’ last post on my talk page (a reaction to my question above), Commonists has not created this image by developing a raw image file, but by processing an out-of-camera JPEG file. My guess is that this pattern is the result of the combination of Sony’s default in-camera denoising and sharpening with some more sharpening in Photoshop. If I find some free time, I will take Commonists’ (allegedly?) original JPEG file and try which Photoshop sharpening leads to that result. --Aristeas (talk) 19:17, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Why would anyone wants to feature this image on Commons (or anywhere else fwiw), when we have a much better version? How can we trust an author who isn't even sure he's used NR "voluntarily" or not? - Benh (talk) 15:55, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

- Regretful oppose A lovely scene, I have no problem with the composition at all ... but as so often, when viewed in closeup, technical limitations noted by King become too apparent not to consider. In this case not only does the image grow increasingly unsharp near the corners, it seems that someone doing post tried too hard to make it work with the contrast. The overly light (the meadow) and dark (the distant forests) are kind of unsharp and muddy, the distant forests on the mountains as well as the rocky summit look unnatural, as if drawn rather than photographed, and the ridgeline and some of the gaps in the tree seem a little oversharpened, with a visible halo.

- Comment @IamMM and Ikan Kekek: I have reduced the CAs in the lower part, especially at the high contrast borders in the lower left. (And I have set the colour profile, it was undefined; I guess this is just sRGB.) There are still some CAs near the top border, they are even harder to fix because of the low colour contrast.

- @King of Hearts: Well, Star Athletica is a Supreme Court decision that goes more to the point here (although it is the same general principle, that purely aesthetic elements of product design are copyrightable), and also as a Supreme Court decision takes precedence over a Ninth Circuit decision. To be fair, it does not seem like this issue has been directly tested yet. But I can't imagine a ruling going any other way. Daniel Case (talk) 19:10, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Per Kreuz, a nice idea; I can definitely see what the photographer was hoping for. But even appropriate sharpness wouldn't save it; I don't see how this composition could ever work under sky this dull. Daniel Case (talk) 03:04, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

- For reference, a house sparrow is 14-18cm (and weighs 2-4 times as much). They're very small, and if they're anything like their winter wren cousins in NA, much harder to photograph (they're fidgety and like to hide). — Rhododendrites talk | 14:07, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support Wish the EXIF was there. Trying to tell how much of the texture is leftover noise, oversharpening, or just dust on the bird. Either way, I'd support. It's a sharp shot of one of my favorite bird families (bonus points for getting the tail pointing). — Rhododendrites talk | 14:07, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
- Sadly lost the EXIF while moving disks and editing, didn't realise until you told me, a fair bit is indeed noise, this was shot on a cloudy day on a Canon 7D mark II at 1/800, ISO 3200, f/6,3 and 600mm with a Sigma 150-600mm contemporary. The bird was also a bit dusty but I doubt this is what is showing up in the picture. --Alexis Lours (talk)
- Not that sad because easily fixable. Two ways: 1) Just copy-paste your current image on the original picture containing metadatas. 2) Update the exif infos you've given above, by copying them in the file page (description section for example) -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:23, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support this version. --Ivar (talk) 13:14, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- Support This version too, although I suggest another crop. Also, I wonder if the bottom part doesn't have a yellow cast... worth a look? - Benh (talk) 13:36, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- Benh, Yes I think there is a very little yellow cast, and it very likely comes from a "skylight filter" preset that I added with Photoshop, but I think it add more than what he takes away as regard to the mood. For the crop I like this one but I can always listen about suggestions, however be aware that I'm unable since a few years to see notes added to images... I still don't understand why, therefore you will have to find a way to describe it to me... or to upload it yourself. Christian Ferrer (talk) 14:59, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- This? - Benh (talk) 15:49, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Benh: in some way your version is clearly improved, and thanks you for your time... It seems to be an improvment either as regard to the crop 1/3 sky which make the city more imortant, or as regard to the color/contrast which gives obviously more relief.... but I always have difficulty with pano-like formats, I always feel like we cut the photo with scissors and when I compare both I prefer to keep the sky. For the colour/contrast I would tend to modify my version towards yours, maybe not as much though as the water seems a bit too purple. But I did not manage to get close of what you did, may I ask what you did exactly? Christian Ferrer (talk) 16:55, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Christian Ferrer Glad you liked it. I used a gradient filter on the bottom part, and applied a color tint shift toward the pinks, and played a bit with the color temperature. I also tweaked contrast/saturation, but only to a mild extent. I hope you'll get better results from the RAW. - Benh (talk) 18:14, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Benh: Great, thanks you, I uploaded a new version. I followed your except that I went towards the blue rather than the pink, did I do too much? is it an improvement? Christian Ferrer (talk) 19:08, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
- To me it looks aesthetically better, but I wonder if the see shouldn't blend more with the sky like it did originally? It's supposed to reflect it after all... not easy... I guess that was why I shift it toward pink rather than blue. Maybe seek other opinions? - Benh (talk) 19:58, 30 December 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Don’t want to interfer with your conversation, but just as a side note: In the current version (upload 23:11, 30 December 2021) the city at the bottom left seems a little bit too greenish to me, therefore I would try to shift the colour balance a little bit towards pink, a little bit more like in Benh’s version, at least for the city ... --Aristeas (talk) 08:11, 31 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support IMHO an impressive photo of the helicopter in flight. The background is a little bit distracting, but thanks to the colours the helicopter stands out clearly. I would suggest to change the description of the photo to a description of the helicopter and its “job” at the Youth Olympics. Anchor added to gallery link. --Aristeas (talk) 15:52, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Not impressed, sorry. Quality is not overwhelming compared to existing helicopter FPs, crop is rather tight, and the exposure time just too short – when shooting aircraft in flight, the spinning parts should show enough motion blur to make them appear rotating. See File:Zepper-BK 117-C2-(EC145)-SchweizerischeRettungsflugwacht.jpg for instance. I agree with KoH about the background, it’s too distracting. --Kreuzschnabel 20:12, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
