Best wishes

Hello Cmao20,

I just want to send you many greetings and hope you are well. It’s been a while since you last wrote anything here on Commons. Of course it’s perfectly OK if you’ve taken some time off or just have other things to do! I don’t want to push you in any way. I just hope that there are no more serious reasons for us not hearing from you. In any case, I would like to send you my best regards and wish you all the best,

--Aristeas (talk) 14:48, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

• Hi Aristeas. Thanks for your kind words. I am very well, thanks, but have been occupied of late with preparation for some exams. I will return to Commons at some point soon. Cmao20 (talk) 17:15, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

• Hi Cmao20, thank you very much for your kind answer! I am glad to hear that everything is OK. I wish you the best of luck and success for your exams! Best regards, --Aristeas (talk) 10:08, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

Welcome back!

Hello Cmao20,

I just wanted to say “Welcome back” to you! It is very good to have you on board again – not just because you have nominated my photos ;–), but because it is very advantageous for the FPC process and the whole community to have kind, friendly and neutral contributors like you. Some things have changed at the FP page in between; there are some promising new regulars, Poco a Poco is here again after a long wikibreak and recently also Alvesgaspar has returned, but W.carter has left the FP page for good (very much to my regret – I miss her informative comments as much as her unconventional photos). I have taken over the duty to tidy up the FP gallery pages and to sort unsorted FPs, so if you spot any problems on the gallery pages please contact me.

All the best and greetings, --Aristeas (talk) 17:48, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Picture question

Hello Cmao20,

I estimate your FP nominations and short picture reviews very much; IMHO you are one of our best “photography critics” and have an excellent eye for good images. Therefore I want to ask you if you could give me a little hint and would appreciate your help very much.

• 
  1
• 
  2
• 
  3
• 
  4

I am thinking about nominating one of these four photos of Stocksberg castle and its vineyards, but I am unsure whether one of them (and which one) would be a reasonable FP candidate. So I just want to ask you for your impression: Is one of these photos a good FP candidate? I think the two wider views (1) and (2) are rather weak because they show “too much” ;–), and in (2) the castle is not that sharp. So IMHO (3) or (4) would be better. Spontaneously I prefer (3) which the slighly lateral view; but maybe the light ist better in (4). So what is your impression? (But if you think that none of the photos has reasonable chances, just tell me so!).

Hint: The tower is really leaning to the left in reality, so IMHO it should appear leaning on the photo, too. The other buildings should be more or less straight.

Thank you very much for your help and all the best, --Aristeas (talk) 10:40, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

• Sure, no problem. Any would probably succeed at FP, but I think you are right to see 3 as the best of them. The angle is better in 3 compared to 4, buildings frequently look more interesting when they are viewed from an angle rather than face-on. 1 is too wide for me and the castle takes up too little space. I actually like 2 a lot but you are right about the sharpness being not quite as good Cmao20 (talk) 11:20, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

• Thank you very much for your answer, Cmao20! This is really very helpful for me. So I will nominate no. 3; but maybe I should check first if I have got another exposure of 2 in which the sharpness of the castle is better – it’s possible. Thank you again and all the best, --Aristeas (talk) 18:25, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Thanks and a hint

About that photo

Hello Cmao20,

thank you again for nominating that photo! Personally I love that photo very much, because it represents some memories which are very important for me. Therefore it was a special joy for me that you like the photo, too. But these memories are, of course, a personal meaning which is completely irrelevant for everybody else. I just want to let you know that you naturally can cancel the nomination (which does no run that well) at every time, even right now, you do not need to show consideration for me; it’s your nomination, after all, and there are certainly more promising candidates as this photo seems to be more or less a matter of taste. (Of course I do not really understand some of the objections against the photo, but the people making these objections do not understand why we like the photo, either, so it seems to be a matter of taste.) All the best, be save, --Aristeas (talk) 17:40, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

• The photo currently has an 8/4 passing score, so I don't see any need to withdraw just yet unless you really want me to. I appreciate your thoughtfulness but I am here to nominate pictures that I find interesting and think deserve the star, not to run an FP assembly line and get as many stars as quickly as I can. Cmao20 (talk) 18:07, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

• Oh excuse me, Cmao20, once again I have expressed myself very clumsily! Of course, I did not mean to imply that you are only looking for as many quick successes as possible. On the contrary, I have the highest respect for the independence and perseverance with which you select images that you yourself consider worthy of a star. And you are right, of course, it is definitely right to let the nomination continue. Please excuse that. I’m in a depressed mood right now (the Corona pandemic is currently exploding in Germany). All the best again, --Aristeas (talk) 09:42, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

• Sorry to hear about the COVID situation - I hope you and your loved ones stay safe. Cmao20 (talk) 14:33, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

• Thank you again for your confidence and steadfastness (sometimes the result was unsure, but the photo has finally made it ;–) and even more for your good wishes! I want to wish you the same. All the best in these unsecure times, --Aristeas (talk) 18:15, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
