New Military Technical museum in Noginsk district edit

Hello Vitaly!

I have seen ([1]) that you have taken some delightful images of the exhibits of the new Military Technical museum in Noginsk district.

I wanted to ask if you can upload some images of that museum with its delightful exhibits. Would be great to hear a positive answer!

Picture of the Year voting round 1 open edit

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2012 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We're interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year for 2012. Voting is open to established Wikimedia users who meet the following criteria:

  1. Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC].
  2. This user account must have more than 75 edits on any single Wikimedia project before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC]. Please check your account eligibility at the POTY 2012 Contest Eligibility tool.
  3. Users must vote with an account meeting the above requirements either on Commons or another SUL-related Wikimedia project (for other Wikimedia projects, the account must be attached to the user's Commons account through SUL).

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year.

To see the candidate images just go to the POTY 2012 page on Wikimedia Commons

Wikimedia Commons celebrates our featured images of 2012 with this contest. Your votes decide the Picture of the Year, so remember to vote in the first round by January 30, 2013.

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

Нужна красивая картинка! edit

Уважаемый Виталий, здравствуйте! Я часто использую ваши фотографии в своих статьях, можно попросить у вас совета насчет выбора красивой иллюстрации для статьи Википедия:Ночные боевые действия? Буду рада всему, что связано с оснащением для ночного боя или просто с армейской жизнью ночью. Заранее спасибо, 173.206.140.222 06:58, 24 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Добрый день! Я думаю для такой статьи больше всего подойдут кадры ночный стрельб, потому что приборы для ночной стрельбы выглядят довольно скучно. К сожалению, у меня нет ночный стрельб. --VitalyKuzmin (talk) 15:56, 24 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
Жаль, что так. Кстати, Виталий - а вот этот

Отличные снимки, Виталий! Я добавила несколько штук в статью: "Рязанский музей Дальней авиации", ну и по мелочи дополнила ими статьи про ШКАС и Х-20. Спасибо вам за работу! --108.63.150.236 01:39, 26 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
