Round 2 of Picture of the Year 2013 is open! edit

 
2012 Picture of the Year: A pair of European Bee-eaters in Ariège, France.

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2013 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2013) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. The top 30 overall and the most popular image in each category have continued to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just one image to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 2 will end on 7 March 2014. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2013/Introduction/en Click here to learn more and vote »]

Hi Jo-Jo Eumerus. I have added the "PD-self" to the picture, and hope it is enough. I have taken a photo of the label in one of my shirts, so I hope the license is alright. Otherwise contact me. BR Toxophilus (talk) 20:04, 8 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the nice photo of my Loshult replica. Here is a photo one year later also in Nyköbing ;-) Bullenwächter (talk) 20:39, 17 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thank you :-) It looks very good with the cannon attached to a base. I will read your article and possible I can use some as source material in my, very comprehensive, article about Middelaldercentret in Danish. Kind regards Toxophilus (talk) 06:37, 18 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hvor har du fundet File:Stensvedgård.jpg? Jeg kan ikke få billedet til at passe med nogen af de steder jeg umiddelbart kan finde. Hjart (talk) 21:00, 17 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Hjart: Det er fordi jeg har givet den et forkert navn kan jeg se. Det skulle have været Stensbygård ved Stensved på Sydsjælland. Mvh. Toxophilus (talk) 12:18, 18 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Løvbjerg, Hurup? edit

Hvor præcist har du fundet File:Løvbjerg, Hurup (Thy).jpg? På https://www.lovbjerg.dk/butikker-aabningstider optræder ingen butik i Hurup Thy. Hjart (talk) 04:13, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Æhm.. I Struer.. Hah. Jeg var på ferie i Nordjylland og snuppede nogle billeder forskellige steder. Jeg huskede den Løvbjerg som om den lå i Hurup, men det er den i Struer. Jeg har ændret kategoriseringen. Toxophilus (talk) 07:02, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Nykøbing? edit

Er du sikker på adressen her: File:Nykøbing Pilsner.jpg? Stedet ser ud til pt. at være en byggeplads, hvor der hidtil har stået 2 boligblokke. Hjart (talk) 17:36, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Hjart: ja jeg kiggede på Google maps, hvor jeg har fundet den. Koordinaterne er 54.768297, 11.875174. Mvh. Toxophilus (talk) 17:45, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Det giver overhovedet ingen mening. Engboulevarden 51-61 er pt en byggeplads. Bemærk at Google Maps kan være forældet. På OSM ser Engboulevarden 57 sådan ud: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1193101524 Hjart (talk) 17:57, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Det kan ligne den bygning, der ligger på modsatte side af Engboulevarden og har adressen Tværgade 59. Hjart (talk) 18:18, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Ahh.. Du har helt ret. Det er Tværgade 59. Nummereringen er bare lidt spøjs. Mvh. Toxophilus (talk) 18:42, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hvad er der "spøjst" ved det? Bygningen er på hjørnet af Engboulevarden og Tværgade og alle Engboulevardens ulige numre er på den anden side af vejen. Hjart (talk) 18:45, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
