Info created & uploaded by User:Ermell - nominated by User:Ikan Kekek -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:30, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
Support - I think this nomination is a real stretch for FPC, because a lot of regulars here tend to object to photos that don't contain the entirety of a lake. Painters routinely make these kinds of crops, because the result is a wonderfully dynamic sky rhymed by a peaceful sandy and grassy near bank, interacting with the trees on the far side, with the water and reflections in the lake in between. Of course Ermell can speak for himself, but I think the fact that the clouds, even more than the lake, are cropped adds tension and dynamism that fits the type of weather Ermell was experiencing and wants us to experience at one remove. (Tangentially, I had a dilemma in terms of categories, because an excavation lake is not natural, but it sure looks natural, so I couldn't think of a better category. Mixed?) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:30, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- The best category is probably Commons:Featured pictures/Places, it is for all those mixed or hard-to-define places. --Cart (talk) 06:58, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- Good idea. Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:28, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- + 1 -- Eatcha (talk) 08:04, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
Question Is it just me (or the compo) or is the image tilted a bit? --Cart (talk) 08:40, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
Comment - I hadn't noticed it. Maybe. User:Ermell, what do you think? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:46, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
Done @Michielverbeek: @Uoaei1: @King of Hearts: I had already corrected the image but forgot to upload it. I hope I didn't spoil it.--Ermell (talk) 19:36, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- Support.--Vulphere 08:48, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
Oppose No wow for me. IMO the left side is hanging a bit to the right. A less strong zoom (with more photo at the left part and a bit at the right) could have given probably a more attractive composition. --Michielverbeek (talk) 09:09, 20 June 2019 (UTC)- Weak Oppose The leading lines all lead towards the patch of trees on the right, which is placed a bit too far off to the side making the composition unbalanced IMO. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 13:28, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose Unnatural WB and no wow for me, sorry --Uoaei1 (talk) 16:39, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- Question - In what way would you suggest changing the WB? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:14, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
- Less yellow and more green --Uoaei1 (talk) 13:52, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
- Support Thanks for nominating Ikan.--Ermell (talk) 19:36, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - Certainly, and thanks for uploading a new revision. We'll see how it does. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:12, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose Per others --Boothsift 21:57, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
- Support A subtle light, but it grows on you after a while. Painterly and elegant. Cmao20 (talk) 22:59, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose I have no problems with the WB or composition. It just isn't interesting with this sky and this level of brightness. Daniel Case (talk) 23:57, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Good quality, and no real reason to oppose, but it lacks something special. Yann (talk) 05:26, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination - Well, I did say this nomination was a stretch. No sense in dragging this out. Thanks to everyone who voted or commented. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:06, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
