  • Nomination Eberspächer Luge World Cup Oberhof: Sandra Robatscher (ITA). By --Stepro 17:55, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •   Oppose not sharp enough --MIGORMCZ 18:15, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support Somewhat low DOF if viewed in full size, but perfectly sharp enough for prints in A4 size or even larger. --Smial 10:41, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose I agree with the first reviewer. This image appears blurry even at thumbnail size.--Peulle 10:19, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
    •   Comment You are of course free to judge, but how do you recognise blur in thumbnail size? In full resolution the lady's eyelashes are clearly visible and they are "sharp enough" in A4 size, but in thumbnail size I can at best see that there are eyelashes. But a sharpness assessment at that size? --Smial 12:01, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
  • I'm not looking at details, it just doesn't look sharp. Comparing with other (sharp) photos from the same photographer reinforced my opinion.--Peulle 07:34, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose I won't say it's unsharp to me at thumbnail size, but it definitely is unsharp simply on the file page without opening the photo. -- Ikan Kekek 12:34, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

  • Nomination Long exposure of the cruise ship Mein Schiff 4 in the port of Rostock, Germany. --Radomianin 20:00, 30 January 2022 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •   Support Good quality. --Frank Schulenburg 21:13, 30 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support Good quality.--Horst J. Meuter 21:49, 30 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose Bright areas are overxposed. Otherwise nice. --Nino Verde 06:17, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Comment Yeah, I think the highlights could be dialed down a bit. -- Ikan Kekek 09:58, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   New version uploaded Dear reviewers @Frank Schulenburg, Horst J. Meuter, Nino Verde, and Ikan Kekek: Thank you very much for your reviews and the constructive editing suggestion. Since I don't take photos in raw mode, it's actually impossible to reconstruct overexposed areas in the jpg file. Unfortunately, what is white is white. The only option I could think of was to cover the overexposed areas in Photoshop with a light gray layer, set the opacity to 15%, and select the layer blend mode Multiply. Regrettably, more opacity looks unnatural. Best wishes :) -- Radomianin (talk) 20:34, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Question Are you sure you uploaded the new version? I'm not seeing any difference. -- Ikan Kekek 21:12, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Comment Thank you for your question, Ikan. Yes, I uploaded the edited version, the difference is only slight. The opacity of the light gray layer is only 15%. I tried using more opacity but it looked unnatural. The difference is visible in direct comparison in full screen mode or at 100% view in the detail of an overexposed area. In such bright areas there is no image information, therefore reconstruction is impossible. Best wishes :) -- Radomianin 21:54, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Comment I did compare at 100%. I guess that shows the limits of my eyesight... -- Ikan Kekek 00:14, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support An impressive view, conveys something of the vibrant energy you feel when you stand right on the pier in front of a big ship ready to depart. Regarding exposure this is a very difficult situation: a night shot of a brightly lit ship must handle an extreme range of contrast. Therefore IMHO the photo is fine. When some extreme highlights are actually extremely bright, it is OK to let them clip because that’s realistic – our eyes would not see much in these extremely bright spots, too; it’s more important that the midtones are exposed correctly and that the darker areas of the photo are still recognizable.--Aristeas 10:26, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support per others. --Milseburg 18:37, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

  • Nomination Suzdal. Kamenka River. Church of Elijah the Prophet --Alexxx1979 09:27, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •   Support Good quality. --Nino Verde 14:26, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Comment Really striking photo, a possible FP in spite of not being twice as large, but alas, I have the feeling that the greens are oversaturated and the water is too green. What do you think, Alexxx1979? -- Ikan Kekek 14:51, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose per above - let's have a discussion. -- Ikan Kekek 00:16, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support--Moroder 13:37, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support Agree that the greens are quite saturated, but at least on my monitor they look still realistic, and the overall impression is OK. --Aristeas 10:05, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose per Ikan. --Smial 11:24, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

  • Promotion
  •   Support Good quality. --Charlesjsharp 16:03, 30 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose Head is unfocused, the whole picture is unsharp. --A.Savin 00:45, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
  • Weak   Support: It's true that the bird is not sharp at full size, but there are a lot of great details that are visible, so I think it's on the right side of the line but welcome more opinions. -- Ikan Kekek 10:00, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support per Ikan. Perfectly printable to A4 size. --Smial 20:27, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

  • Nomination Lucia widow (Palpopleura lucia) immature male --Charlesjsharp 10:34, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •   Support Good quality. --Kritzolina 11:27, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose I disagree. Wings and tail are not sharp. --Steindy 16:31, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Comment Steindy seems to me to have a good point, but Charles, I'd like to give your take on this a fair hearing. -- Ikan Kekek 11:23, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Comment Revenge vote. Head and eyes are sharply in focus Ikan Kekek which is I think good for QI. Of course the wings are not in focus as you and anyone else with an understanding of depth of field would understand. Charlesjsharp 17:02, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
Sure, I understand about the wings, but what about the tail? -- Ikan Kekek 20:15, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
Has to be sharp for FPC, but for QI? FP from 2007! and an FP from 2015 that I voted against Charlesjsharp 14:10, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply and links. I thought I remembered you voting to decline QIC noms over unsharp abdomens. That was at FPC only? -- Ikan Kekek 15:02, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support Good enough for me, insufficient DOF are normal limits of photography, specially on macros, if you don't use focus bracketing --Moroder 13:42, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support per Moroder. --Aristeas 09:35, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

  • Nomination: Red-headed rock agama (Agama agama) juvenile --Charlesjsharp 10:34, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
  • Review
  •   Support Good quality. --Kritzolina 11:27, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose I disagree. Only the head is sharp. --Steindy 16:31, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
  •   Support The eye is in focus and that’s most important. Of course more DoF would always be welcome but this is not table-top photography in the studio but real wildlife, therefore it’s good for me. --Aristeas (talk) 10:09, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
  •   Oppose Not sharp, the false eye in the neck is unclear. Not upto the standards of Category:Quality images of Agama agama. --Tagooty 02:59, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
