Image:Frostbitten hands.jpg - not featured
[edit]- Info created by (Winky) - uploaded by FlickrLickr - nominated by SFC9394
- Support Thought I would test the waters with something a bit different - Technically proficient with an interesting subject that is a bit different from the "sunset set"--SFC9394 16:42, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose not very beautiful --Luc Viatour 19:01, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Comment: That is entirely the point. From the nominator’s guidelines above: "beautiful does not always mean valuable", the reverse is also true. I thought I would test things a bit here, because featured pictures is meant to represent what is most valuable to the commons, not just what looks nice - and this picture is both technically sound, and the only picture of frostbite on the commons (I uploaded a number of beautiful mountainous pictures from the same photographer with the last ‘Licker upload – but I thought I would choose this to try and get something featured that isn’t just another panorama scape) SFC9394 19:50, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
OpposeI understand — and agree with SFC9394 : we can't have only landscapes (or caterpillars;)...But this interesting picture is, IMO, below FP-standard. --Jod-let 20:56, 27 July 2006 (UTC)Neutral Jugement un peu hâtif...--Jod-let 15:42, 31 July 2006 (UTC)- Support It's really not very beautiful, but it's clear and sharp and composition is good norro 22:49, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Support Agree with norro. --Malene Thyssen 22:11, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose not very beautiful :-( --Stunter 08:27, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- Support I agree with norro, too Akriesch 13:25, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose Too shallow DOF. Fingertips are either out of focus or frostbite leads to loss of skin texture(?) Because of this ambiguity I don't think its that great as illustrative medical image. --Wikimol 20:27, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose -- different: yes, FP material: nope -- Boereck 08:43, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- Support --Ziga 14:37, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- Support "Not beatiful" seems to be the point. --Brandt Luke Zorntalk to me 04:31, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose - No matter the subject, I don't like the picture on a technical point of view (composition, sharpness ...). -- Fabien1309 19:53, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Support Gross. I love it. 07:43, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Support disgusting. Cary "Bastique" Bass parler voir 16:20, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- Support for educational purposes. A better illustration of frostbite than those extreme cases one usually gets to see. There should, however, be more info. Under what conditions does one get this kind of frostbite (temperature, humidity, clothing, exposure duration)? And what stage is this? Apparently not quite recovering yet. A series showing the recovery process would also have been nice, but that may be asking too much. DirkvdM 11:01, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

- Oppose Beauty is not the point, but this picture is partly blurred, one hand is cut, and both composition and background are not commendable. Roger McLassus 17:05, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. Agree with Roger McLassus. --— Erin (talk) 13:58, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
