Image:Neon.JPG, featured
[edit]With all do respect to the below discussion, I would point to the fact that the image is obviously misleading: it supposed to associate the name of gas neon with its emission, but it does not - neon emission is never white, but is orange-red. Materialscientist (talk) 10:03, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

- Oppose Presumably the blown white of the tubes is intentional, but for me the serious overexposure spoils what would otherwise be a nice idea. --MichaelMaggs 16:56, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- Shot neon without blown white... interesting idea. May when switched off?--Beyond silence 19:13, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- Easy: underexpose by a couple of stops and brighten up the background in post-production. Or use HDR. --MichaelMaggs 22:01, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- Maybe I'm in minority, but I want to see reality on photos. It's obvious that when watching such bright thing like glowing neon lamp human can see overexposed image only ;) --WarX 08:31, 22 October 2007 (UTC)]
- I've gotta agree wholeheartedly with WarX --Pumpmeup 06:23, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately for photography, the dynamic range that can be captured in a single image like this is vastly less than the human eye can see. The eye can see the full range easily; the camera can't. --MichaelMaggs 12:31, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

- But that doesn't mean that in this case, your eye would have been able to see anything else than pure white. Those neon lights can be very powerful. --Nattfodd 07:28, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

- Oppose The Idea is not new, as far as I remeber I saw a similar Artwork (Neon written in Neon-light) on an exposition about minimal Art. So the original artist should be at least mentioned. Furthermore, the Image-Quality could be better. Richardfabi 08:56, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
- Support It is nice picture because of the nice connection between text (subject) and object. Metoc 17:40, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
