- Oppose Cluttered background and chromatic aberration -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:33, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
The background is out of focus because obviously the focus is on the flower. I guarantee you that the color is just the right one even from the truth, because I have not retouched the photo in the colors. I have other photos of the same flowers that are exactly those exact colors PROPOLI87 (talk) 08:03, 25 February 2020 (UTC)PROPOLI87PROPOLI87 (talk) 08:03, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
- The color of the flower is fine, chromatic aberration has nothing to do with that. It is the description of the very fine purple/blue/red borders around the flower and other things in the image. It is caused by the lens and can be corrected in post-processing programs like Lightroom. Follow the link and read about it. --Cart (talk) 08:34, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
- ok, do you have a program to recommend that is simple to use for these changes? Thank you PROPOLI87 (talk) 16:18, 25 February 2020 (UTC)PROPOLI87PROPOLI87 (talk) 16:18, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
- I think Adobe Lightroom is the best. It is the program used by most photographers here. It also has thousands of video tutorials on YouTube for all the function in it, in both English and Italian --Cart (talk) 16:43, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

- Neutral for now. This is your best effort yet at FPC but Cart is quite correct about the existence of chromatic aberration. Look at the border of the flower above the tree trunk and you'll see a blue fringe of colour. Correct that obvious issue, and I think I could support this one. The image quality is not perfect in other ways (a bit noisy) but the composition is good. Cmao20 (talk) 11:38, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

- Category: Commons:Featured_pictures/Places/Natural/New_Zealand#Canterbury_(Waitaha)
- Info I thought I'd try something new so here we go: this is a set nomination of a couple of panoramas. Each panorama displays the same thing: small mountain range in New Zealand called Poplars Range. The range has 2 prominent peaks: Garnet Peak on the west and Mons Sex Milla on the east. The first panorama shows a view of Mons Sex Millia from Garnet Peak, the second panorama shows it other way around. The images are taken under very similar light conditions on the same day, 2 hours from each other (that's how long it took me to hike from one point to another). Photographed, uploaded and nominated by me. -- Podzemnik (talk) 09:42, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

- Oppose I think it's a nice picture, nothing against that Poco. But I feel quite sorry for the animals that they have to put up with helicopters above their heads. --Podzemnik (talk) 05:49, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- In case you never did Safari, sometimes, cars are literally queueing so that we, tourists, can have a nice close look at the animals. We get as close as 20m I'd say, which is really close. That seem to be now very common and they are used to that. That also doesn't seem to detract them (too much?) from their usual behaviors and I have witnessed big cats in hunting "session". But maybe helicopter is much louder. - Benh (talk) 12:37, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- What Benh mentions is true, but rare. I have joined about 10 safaris and have experienced that twice (for a good reason, the result of those are pretty good, see here and here for which btw I used a 600 m tele as we were far). Podzemnik, I agree, these animals did notice us and looked up, okay, that's not good. We assume that we disturbed them, but not that much that they ran away (probably because it was not an extraordinary event for them and kind of are used to it). If you were consistent I'd expect a systematic "strong oppose" of all zoo pictures in FPC which are more common that wildlife. I got used to but I'm tired about the fact that reviewers make no difference between wildlife and zoo pictures in terms of quality but this comment as a reason to decline a wildlife shot is the last thing I had expected. Poco a poco (talk) 15:27, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- @Poco a poco: I'm trying not to vote for ZOO shots, especially of those from a short distance where a flash was used. I watched whales once from the Canadian shores. I'd be hiking for 2 days to get to the place where the water was deep and close to the shore so I'd have a chance to see them. After I saw them, about 10 noisy boats with tourists holding telezoom cameras arrived, chasing the whales for 10 minutes until they disappeared under the water. Sorry Poco, I don't want to create any controversy here, I just don't agree with taking noisy helicopters so people can take pictures of animals which would be hard to see under normal conditions. It looks like about half of zebras are actually looking at you and even though the rest of them is not, I'm sure they noticed you. We can't say what they were thinking but if I was a zebra, I know what I'd be thinking and if I was annoyed or not. --Podzemnik (talk) 19:16, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- Expecting everyone to ambush / setup trigger photo or whatever do not disturb animals in wildlife and share them for free here... sets the bar quite high. And would not help with diversity of photos here. Have you never voted for bugs macro shot (I didn't check)? Sure u never bothered or crushed any of them in your hikes? I'm pretty sure the helicopter didn't really annoy the zebras. And it's quite nice that someone provides wildlife photos here. - Benh (talk) 10:16, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

- To tell the truth, I'm sick and tired of hearing about all the things that should be centered, symmetric, or some other unimaginative "standard". A really good photo breaking such conventions can be so much more dynamic. As is the case here with more of the leaves showing. It kind of reminds me of a time-honored way of depicting things eminating from a center. --Cart (talk) 17:50, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

- Support - I think Tobias does a lot of good, interesting work with models. I particularly like this series, and this is my favorite photo from it. I find the landscape itself a good composition, and I think the way he positions the model in relation to the light is quite creative and striking, so I thought I'd see what you thought of it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:45, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

- I disagree. In that one, the strong artificial light in from behind the camera does not match the natural light coming from the opposite direction at all. Nothing against a bit of fill flash (the current candidate could certainly have benefited from that), but his looks almost like a studio shot in front of a printed backdrop to me. --El Grafo (talk) 09:30, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, this is like a studio shot with exterior environment. It could be natural if the light comes from a street lamp or any other source located outside. I even don't know how it was done with the electricity on this beach. Interesting in my view. Anyway, this would be another nom -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:40, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Ehm... 4 AA cels in an HSS flash gun last time I checked ;)--Tobias ToMar Maier (talk) 01:07, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Sorry, but as someone used to reading lifestyle/fashion magazines, catalogs for women's wear and such on- and off-line, I find this and the whole series rather dated like some printed media from the 70s. For me, they are fine as QIs to just show the garments, albeit in rather over-sexed poses, but for FP I'd like something a little more stylish. The photos are an awkward mix of styles, like am I looking at an ambient photo of landscape with a woman, the garments, a sexy fold-out, a portrait or what. --Cart (talk) 09:25, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I wanted to show the 2017s bikini with the lace insert, the pants and all things you can do with it during the golden hour and a little beyond. Including flash fotography with a color gel and a silluet. Only thing missing is how to put the pants on.--Tobias ToMar Maier (talk) 22:39, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose In addition to what Cart wrote: The lighting on the face looks very nice as long as I look at the face alone. As soon as I view the picture as whole, the face disappears in the shadows, turning the illuminated front of her torso into the main visual anchor point (possibly good for a fashion shot but really not helpful for a portrait). The pose is unflattering; the model is much slimmer than she looks in this image. If "sexy" is the intention here, this one does it much better. --El Grafo (talk) 10:18, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Comment - That one is a little less unusual to me. It really doesn't seem like this one is going to make it, though. I'll likely withdraw soon unless the voting unexpectedly turns around. I knew this could be a stretch, as I really had no idea how everyone might react. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:22, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support Nice mood. The one El Grafo links to is also nice but seems a bit more ordinary. Cmao20 (talk) 11:38, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

A useful image that is technically OK, but it does not WOW me. --El Grafo (talk) 10:49, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

- Question What at first seems brilliant appears disturbing on closer inspection. Is the frog sitting completely in the water or from what is the flash reflected?--Ermell (talk) 08:11, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
- @Ermell: I don't understand your question. The frog is sitting on the creek rock and the water flows over him. Rock is covered with old leafs and vegetation --Ivar (talk) 08:59, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
- @Ermell: @Iifar: @Famberhorst: Sorry, having getting so much alerts from Wikipedia that I muted most alerts. So, this photo was taken in a creek during the rainy season where there was a strong stream, kind of river alike strong stream. This frog jumped into the water and landed on a rock near the nearest bank. The water was flowing powerfully over the rock and I was surprised how the frog had a good grip on the rock despite most it's body was under the water. The ID is 100% sure, I always confirm my IDs with nr #1 person in Thailand to ask. It is more of an artistic shot, at the same time a habitat shot. These frogs are active in the water along the streams, in rocky habitats. --Rushen (talk) 09:21, 06 March 2020 (UTC)

- Weak support as well ... It doesn't seem like the sort of subject you'd take a vertical of, but I like how the lesser peaks and the shadows seem to make steps to take the eye upward. Daniel Case (talk) 19:30, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - It's a nice snow-and-rockscape, and I like the viewpoint and portrait orientation, but the sky doesn't help, and there are also some dust spots in the sky that you could look for. If you could take a similar photo with some nice clouds in the sky, you could have a winner, at least as far as I'm concerned. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:05, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

It might even be to the nom's advantage to indicate by an empty section, that it's a first and not "just another gull/dove/heron".

- Keep No. Never ever. High resolution is no self-purpose -- it is only desirable if it really adds detail, otherwise it's nothing but playing with software and a waste of disk space. "Topaz Gigapixel" may make images *look* better in comparison to the same upscaling just when Photoshop or anything else was used; but it does not make images better in reality. Detail is something that only the camera+lens can produce, no software in the whole world is able to add it. Regarding the nominated picture, it is easy to proof it, when juxtaposing both images in full size. Please take a look at the left sign. Can you read its fourth row (where the phone numbers are) better in the upscaled version rather than in the non-upscaled one? Obviously no. And that's the point. Higher resolution, but not a tiny better detail. --A.Savin 13:13, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
- Keep A.Savin put words to my uneasiness when seeing this nom. There is no merit in doing these bloated images. It's like putting botox into a file. --Cart (talk) 13:25, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
- Keep No need, nothing extraordinary can be seen in upscaled image. Upscaling... can be done just with camera. Or if you have software like in "Castle". --Mile (talk) 18:48, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
- Keep This 'Topaz Gigapixel' software sounds too good to be true. It just doesn't make sense that any software program can generate details that aren't there. If it does do what the manufacturers say, this nomination doesn't go far enough, we might as well process every FP on this site through the software and get free extra resolution. But honestly speaking, I don't believe it. It seems from reading the webpage that what the program is actually doing is guessing what the extra pixels would look like and filling in the gaps using its AI software to figure out what they would be likely to look like; but I don't really see how that differs in any practical way from normal upscaling, it's just that the program is better at it. It's interesting software and I might look into purchasing it, but nothing can add details that aren't there. Cmao20 (talk) 22:19, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
- I withdraw my nomination Thanks for the feedback, I honestly think that the larger image is not only large but sharper, but, perhaps, artificial intelligence is not intelligent enough to add real details at the moment. Thank you so much for the comments. --Wilfredor (talk) 22:59, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

- Basile Morin please could you add more information about what is overprocessed for you? --Wilfredor (talk) 00:23, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- Well, many things can be at the origin of this artificial aspect and this is more your role I think to find which button you turned excessively here, however in my view there's too much clarity, too much contrast, and this is visible immediately at the thumbnail. Looking at full size just gives a confirmation of this first negative impression -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:32, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Since a new version was uploaded 5 hours ago without notification on this page, I just want to warn the reader my comment above is concerning this version, and not the current image. Clearly a tremendous change. Much more natural now, although the light is not great unfortunately.

- Comment From my point of view, once you switch to b&w, you actually can go a bit overboard with the processing and get an interesting and better result. I remember another nom as a good example of what going "outside the box" can do. This is a lively and interesting photo that could benefit from an editing that accentuates the people in the photo a bit more. Per Martin in the nom I mention, take a look at Sebastião Salgado's photos/editing and see what you think. --Cart (talk) 12:17, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks Cart and Basile Morin I am particularly a fan of Sebastião Salgado, he is very recognized in Brazil. I have tried to take your recommendations highlighting people but without falling into the overprocessed. Obviously the film development is much more real and beautiful, I also have doubts about whether Sebastian was really using edition after taking his photos or simply played with the light that was at the time of taking the picture. BTW, I would like to hear your opinions regarding this new version, thank you very much --Wilfredor (talk) 15:10, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

But the light is not excellent -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:20, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
- Not such a big difference. Unfortunately, I think you were not so lucky with the light for this scene, and it makes it difficult to make it wow-y. --Cart (talk) 15:35, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- Comment In my opinion, some of Salgado's work is overprocessed as well (David Yarrow is another example btw.) --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 17:57, 29 February 2020 (UTC) (Wilfredor: your first version resembled that style more closely)
- Yes Frank, Salgado's work is overprocessed, no doubt about it, but he has developed it into a style. A style of his own, like many other successful photographers. I don't think that Commons' FPs need to be only in the style of National Geographic. IMO a rather soul-less style. Or as the photographer says in The Bridges of Madison County: ...making sure his pictures are in focus, with “not too much personal comment”. Commons should reflect a number of styles. --Cart (talk) 19:25, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- Agreed. I think we were not so far apart in the first place (see my comment below). I find my own photography soulless. A price that I paid for earning a couple of stars here. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 21:20, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

- Hehe, dark side sounds promising! But seriously, I don't like how this process here locks me in. That's why I stopped nominating my own pictures a while ago.

- Support Very good image of high documentary value.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 16:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- Comment To me, the question at hand is not so much about the processing, but about the composition. Many good black-and-white images work because the photographer has used the contrast of different subjects in a scene in a smart way. To me, the above image contains too many elements that closely resemble their background, e.g. the people on the right. I also find this image a bit too cluttered (unless that's intended), which makes it too busy for my taste. Best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 18:06, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- The chaos of the amount of elements represents in itself the chaos that it sought to represent, which in turn is the chaos in the day, in the minds of these people and observing Frank's comment, I think that at this point I will upload a photo with the contrast that I want to show, I respect the opinions expressed here, however, I think that it has entered a more artistic than technical terrain, so, I will Keep the contrast that I wanted to show in the beginning with all due respect, especially to Basile Morin comment and maybe you might want to change your vote oppose. Thanks --Wilfredor (talk) 18:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
- I support that approach, Wilfredo. Do what you think is the best. The feedback here on Commons often has the tendency of suppressing any style. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 21:17, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

- Comment This illustrates one of the problems with drone photos, the composition would have been better if the photo orientation was upright but you can't switch orientation as fast as with a normal camera and try several framing options. With the 'upright', the end of the lighthouse cliff would have been in frame and less of the not so interesting beach on the right side. --Cart (talk) 15:30, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

- Charles, it's called a gentle approach, something you don't use very often. This is a nom by an inexperienced FPC participant and a photo by a Commons newbie, no need to scare them away with a sledge hammer oppose right from the start. Sometimes comments and suggestions are enough, it has been done several times on newbie noms. If need be, I can add a real oppose later. --Cart (talk) 17:16, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, I understand, and your comments were constructive, but the vote should be honest. Otherwise, others need to step in when we could just ignore. Charles (talk) 18:06, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

- Oppose Definitely an impressive image. But Michiel is right about the perspective and the missing sharpness at the left; in addition, there are irritating CAs. While perspective and CAs could be fixed, I fear that the general lack of sharpness at the left is not fixable (it is not just out of focus: I cannot find anything in focus at the left; maybe a lens defect?).

- Oppose per A.Savin, especially his remarks on composition. The light isn't great, either. Nice motif, though. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:40, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support Sharpness isn't perfect at full size but it is 24mpx, downsize to ~10mpx and it looks great. I agree the composition is not outstanding, but it's the kind of photo that doesn't really need an outstanding composition, the point is to display the motif in a good-quality photo. Compare this FP - nothing outstanding in composition, but it would be hard to think how one could produce a better composition of that motif. Same applies here.

- Oppose - As a musician, this grieves me, but I have to agree with Ivar. Do you have any photos that show the whole instrument? Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:46, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- I think it depends on what kind of photo you are making. For small instruments you can have all of it in frame. This is a very large instrument and the description is "Sousaphone player" with the focus on the man playing it. With the whole instrument visible the man becomes secondary. You seldom have the whole piano in frame when you take a picture of the pianist. This is very nicely framed with the face of his colleague showing up left for band context and the smiling girl right for event context. --Cart (talk) 08:20, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Info Thanks for your support and explanation Cart. @Ikan: I don't have a complete picture. At first sight it might look messy, but still things fit together very well. The concentrated sousaphone player the listening girl, the trumpeter playing along and the reflections of the bumper cars racetrack are dominated by the colour red.--Ermell (talk) 09:47, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support for the reasons explained by Cart (thank you!). --Aristeas (talk) 08:42, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose I agree with Cart that this needs to be considered as a portrait of the player rather than the whole instrument. But I think in its current state, the image is neither here nor there. There is so much going on in the frame that the man still is somewhat secondary. I find the two other persons very distracting, as my eyes are automatically drawn towards them, even though they are out of focus and in the corners. I think for a portrait of the player, a much tighter crop would be necessary in order to carve out a clear subject. I've played around with it a bit, and a tight 5:4 portrait orientation crop starting with is wrist just outside the frame at the lower left corner seems to work pretty well – I'll try to leave an image note for illustration. --El Grafo (talk) 09:15, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

- Oppose I agree with Charles, but since this is from Flickr, I don't think we can get a new version of it (I know Richard's mother, but that is not the right way to approach him about photos). Underwater photos are too tricky to de-saturate in the right way from jpeg so I wouldn't even try. --Cart (talk) 18:12, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
- A Google Image search returns some others with bright colors. No strong opinion on this one from me, though. Mainly commented because

- Sweden is a small place. Also: Hey, it's me, you should expect the unexpected. :)
- Seriously, yes these fishies are colorful, but this is too much. The underwater light makes the over-saturated areas "bleed" over and blend with other areas. Too hard to separate the colors with only the jpeg to work with, might be impossible even with raw. --Cart (talk) 04:16, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- I agree with Rhododendrites. I'd like to hear from anyone who's seen this fish in person. For now, I'll keep my supporting vote. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:31, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- A Google Image search returns some others with bright colors. No strong opinion on this one from me, though. Mainly commented because
- Neutral Googling this fish, the species has iridescent colors. Many ones look similar. It is possible the saturation has been slightly increased, but not at a crazy level. And also note the background is darker than in most of the available similar images, which means a natural contrast can produce this effect. Now the saturation can be dialed down a bit, even though it's a naturally beautiful specimen 🐠.

- Clarification: This is a well-known band, but it's not an important event, such as their last concert, the last performance of the artist or something special that makes this particular photo stand out. Unless taken at a very important date/event, I don't see the point in nominating a +15 year old photo.--Peulle (talk) 11:40, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

- Strong support When explaining what makes a FP, I usually say something about there being a technical aspect, an educational aspect, and something like a "wow" factor, and that excelling in one area can make up for shortcomings in others. This is a good example of an image that probably isn't a QI, but should be a FP. It captures the drama and intensity and indeed "wow" of a performance by an extremely notable musician/band in a way that compensates for the technical problems. A photo taken today would be something different -- a band of middle aged musicians who probably can't perform like they did in 2004. — Rhododendrites talk | 14:37, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

- Support Now this is a really interesting discussion, and both pro and contra arguments are very good ;–).

- Oppose I'm sorry but taken as a whole, this does not add up to an FP for me. Yes, kimonos are hard to shoot since you need a real studio for them (they are big when spread out), but this file is rather small for such a garment and the details are on the soft side. The kimono itself is nice but not so exceptional as to make up for the photo quality, the black cutout background not well done and it deprives the furisode of grace and volume. A kimono photo usually looks better when it is seen on some stand in a room. I know I might be too picky about this, but I collect kimonos and the only reason they don't show up here is because I don't have a room big enough with good light to shoot them in. --Cart (talk) 23:32, 4 March 2020 (UTC)

- Weak experimental support With image programs getting better and better, this photo is one of a trending art-form, surreal photography, that is starting to generate some internationally recognized artists. One of the most noted is Swedish Erik Johansson with works like Full Moon Service and even one of the most "hot" photographers right now, Chinese Chen Man, is doing layered collages in this genre (like her version of the Eight Immortals or other versions of Chinese iconography) or acclaimed Annie Leibovitz with her fairy tales photos.. This image looks like it could be inspired by Erik's Daybreaker. This nom's author seems to be quite good at this art-form and I think this could be a candidate to represent it among the FPs. We have other modern computer art images like manga and fractals, so why not some of surreal photography. BUT, it should be made very clear that these images are fantasy creations and they should be restricted to categories for art. Placing this in categories like "Astronomy" is wrong and downright deceptive, and I urge Vian not to mix works like this in categories with normal photos plus state very clearly on the file pages that these are montages. Perhaps also mention how many photos were used, locations for the originals and something about the technique used to create them (just like Erik Johansson does). --Cart (talk) 10:32, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support All per Cart :) - Benh (talk) 10:59, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose The boundaries between photography and painting are becoming increasingly blurred. But there are some mistakes in this Disney-like scene.

- 🌸 Would be even more striking with a bit of Care Bears rainbow :-) I propose this alternative. Since last Picture of the year was also a fake image (photomontage with blue sky coming from another sequence), I think we have here a good candidate for the next POTY :-) Because the voters will not read the caption, they will simply decide quickly whether or not it's a wow-supernatural-landscape FP-promoted!

- Oppose I don't think there's anything wrong with a photomontage per se, as long as it's clearly marked out as one. But I'm not sure I actually like the photo. It's very well done technically but it just looks so unreal that it bears no relation to what you'd ever see in real life, and I don't find that beautiful. To me photography is about capturing reality in unusual and beautiful ways, not about creating a fantasy landscape that has only a tangential relationship with reality. Cmao20 (talk) 22:09, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
- Like drawings, paintings, 3D artworks, videos, and all kinds of media, photomontages are of course fully acceptable, as long as their purpose is clear. And Erik Johansson is a good (but here misleading) example of what would be great to promote in FP. Unfortunately this work is far far from this genius. On the contrary, it exactly follows the non-original track of the current trend, facilitated by all the modern ways of production for such unreal-overprocessed-and-oversatured landscapes (Instagram, and many popular mobile apps). That's a question of taste, but of laziness also for the observers who just resign to celebrate the current fashion. Let me guess this photomontage won't last long. Proof of the lack of creativity is that the same technique with the same kind of sentimental scenery was repeated many times without diversity. Is it a style? Yes, it seems so. As a result, this work is "kitsch" in its main (and sorry, pejorative) meaning (Wikipedia): "it implies that the work in question is gaudy, or that it serves a solely ornamental and decorative purpose rather than amounting to a work of what may be seen as true artistic merit." Another proof is the unclear intention of the uploader. And that's very important. Since you can consider the work of your own child as a sublime piece of art, unfortunately as long as the drawing is not claimed as such by the author, that's your own imagination which goes too far. As I see this upload, like many others uploaded by the same user Vian, it was proposed as part of the Wiki Science Competition. And then was sorted by the jury in the Category:Obviously ineligible submissions for WSC 2017 in Ukraine. The wrong description also reveals the initial absence of artistic aim. Certainly a sentimental person with technical abilities, but definitely not a creator aware as suggested above. "Kitsch is, unlike art, a utilitarian object lacking all critical distance between object and observer." Ivar says "it's nice" (means cute in my view, not hurting any sensibility), Ermell says it's Disney-like (means the same I think), but frankly, this is not original. At least I've seen millions of similar images already. Much closer to this (over-saturated), than that (all natural! wow). Spot the error -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:18, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, this expresses a lot of the points I was thinking about myself. The same uploader has produced many very similar photomontages that use identical techniques and that seem more or less interchangeable. This is not the sign of a great creative work of art. Cmao20 (talk) 07:35, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Artificial vignetting also corrupts 50% of the content -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:18, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support per Cart; I guess I can't complain since I've seen and photographed the the very real sight of the sun in the night sky (as have others in this discussion), the twain meeting, and I am glad this one is clearly identified as something that could never be seen in real life (at least on this planet).
But at the same time since POTY was mentioned ... it may be too late to do it this year (i.e., for 2019's images), but I think it is past high time we started awarding in categories (i.e., the ones we group the nominees in) as well as overall, and there should be a photomontage/photo illustration category for this and images like it. Daniel Case (talk) 03:37, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- Comment A special POTY category for photomontages/photo illustrations would be a good idea. --Aristeas (talk) 09:31, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
- With the way we do it, where the top two from each section are automatically finalists, some of the categories (like this hypothetical category) are rather small. Perhaps a broader "other"... — Rhododendrites talk | 00:41, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
supportSeems like there was a section for posters of this sort of thing at the local mall (back in the 90s when I was at the age when one looks through posters at the mall :) ), but probably not actual photomontages. It feels a little dated as such, but supporting because it's a pretty effective instance of this sort of thing, and it's something we don't often see at FPC. — Rhododendrites talk | 23:52, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

- Comment Impressive quality for drone shot (?). But isn't it quite distorted, especially in the lower corners? —kallerna (talk) 14:04, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- It is distorted. The panini projection mitigates the distorsion somehow (compared to a rectilinear) and still keeps shapes "true to what you'd see in reality" but doesn't do magic. You can check Google Maps to see how it is in reality. The drone is a Mavic 2 Pro, which comes with a very nice 1" sensor camera. Only it is a bit noisy (even by 1" standards), but that isn't a big issue in bright conditions. Since it's a mosaic, the quality "per size" is quite good. - Benh (talk) 14:11, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- There's about 200° of horizontal FOV (Hugin computed 240° but I cropped even further), so hard to avoid. I believe the stretching at the borders is similar to a 13-15mm rectilinear lens on a FF camera. - Benh (talk) 14:21, 13 March 2020 (UTC)

- Neutral I like this picture, the environment and light, personally I have no problem with almost 30% of the photo being solid black and the moon and the trunk play a weight role in the composition, however, I think that there is missing some main element in the photo. --Wilfredor (talk) 22:53, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

- Support I like this, I wouldn't have expected to enjoy a picture that's almost completely dark like this so much, but it's brave to have taken a photo with such little natural light.

This is late dusk, this is dusk at nautical twilight as the remaining daylight clusters around the recent sunset as it prepares to retreat from the night. Looking at this I feel the slight (perhaps) evening chill and think of how splendid the day must have been. Daniel Case (talk) 20:15, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

- I updated the caption. It is a European bee (Apis mellifera) extracting nectar from a Maonia flower - Mahonia aquifolium using its trunk. Small hairs that cover the bee's body maintain a slight electrostatic charge, causing pollen from the flower's anthers to stick to the bee, allowing pollination when the bee moves to another flower.

- Info Reeds are nice to work with in black and white since in high contrast, they come out resembling old traditional bamboo paintings. Sometimes even the light is reversible in these photos since with another light and background, the leaves become light and the background dark. I was briefly considering nominating this version, but since B&W is regarded as bad/evil by some users here, an inverted B&W photo would probably have me excommunicated from the forum. :) All by me, -- Cart (talk) 16:03, 13 March 2020 (UTC)

- Comment - Nice, but are the highlights blown? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:49, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- That is a term not usually associated with B&W photography since very white or very black areas are often a desired effect, like here. A blown area in a color photo is a part so bright that no color or detail can be detected in it, so more relevant with such. In high contrast B&W all bright and white areas become white, so technically half of the photo could be said to be "blown". Some reading. Think graphic print, without the high contrast here, this photo would be rather boring with only similar gray nuances, B&W often needs more contrast than color photos. --Cart (talk) 19:19, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- Got it. So it's really a matter of taste how bright the viewer wants the highlights in each case. I do like some of the high-contrast pictures you linked and I think I voted for one or two of them. Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:31, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- And I guess my feeling is that I'd like the brightness of the whites to be toned down some, in this case. I feel like it's hindering eye movement, but I might change my mind later. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:33, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, it's a matter pf taste. Here I think toning down the white areas would make the photo lose it's crispness. Even if many of the old bamboo drawings I mentioned in the info have faded to yellow or even sepia, I like this to have a hint of freshly ground Chinese ink on rice paper. --Cart (talk) 22:52, 13 March 2020 (UTC)

- Support Painterly. Cmao20 (talk) 23:14, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Nothing special and Overprocessed. The subject is not particularly interesting. Ordinary grass with a bit of water. Looking at the color version there's no clear potential for FP at the beginning. Then, the strong contrast of the post-treatment generates ugly dark parts with a lot of artifacts. The quality is not here. All the details were lost. Impression of blown highlights. The composition is also a bit boring, not wild enough. Reading the introduction, now I am an "evil" (even though I supported a B&W image last week), well... let's live evil :-) -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:55, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose on some similar grounds to Basile. I'd say the water doesn't look much like water in this photo. I like the reeds more than Basile does, but the stream really doesn't help me move my eyes, even in the color version, which is IMO better in this case (but still not IMO an FP). -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:38, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

- Oppose This doesn't appeal on composition or technical quality with the bright whites. Charles (talk) 19:10, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support I do rather like what you're going for here. I wonder if taking the picture a little earlier in the day might actually be worth trying, for the increased contrast from the harsh sun maybe affording room to play around with shadows without fading the edges as much? Donno. — Rhododendrites talk | 01:38, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
- Rhod: The sun was actually very harsh when I took this. (Photo taken at the same time) This was taken smack in the middle of the Swedish summer when the sun hadly sets, so just looking at the time stamp might be confusing for a New Yorker. :) What made me try for something like this (and other photos of reeds) was the strong sunlight and here also that I had the reflection of a cloud in the stream which made the background brighter than the usual sky blue color, and it added to the contrast. I will keep experimenting with photos like this though, but I doubt they will show up here at FPC. One test is enough. --Cart (talk) 02:25, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

- Info Early morning view of the district of Otrobanda, Willemstad, Curaçao, from Queen Emma Bridge, a pontoon bridge across St. Anna Bay. It connects the Punda and Otrobanda quarters of the island's capital. The bridge is hinged and opens regularly to enable the passage of oceangoing vessels - which takes only a few moments.

- Comment The boards are a feature, not a bug, imo, but that's a matter of taste. On the issue of the pedestrians crossing the bridge, well, I'd argue that they illustrate what it is actually built for without obstructing the view too much.

- Comment Is there a way to clone out the crane exactly in the middle of the image? it is at the spot where the lines are guiding to. I also believe that the image is tilted. The inclination of the river from left to right is too strong --Poco a poco (talk) 15:22, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks you for your review, no to the both requests. For the crane, not that I'm not able to do it, but I find that kind of correction a bit "too much", and it is already very near to be in the middle. Sadly, when I took the photo, I had coppice and brambles on my right and I could not place it in the middle. For the tilt I am not very favorable to make corrections, I am very carefull to use the internal camera horizontal level when I use my tripod, and I remember very well to have been very careful that time. Furthermore I just checked the file in lightroom, I did not make a single corrections (and it is verifiable by the size of the image, as it is the full wide size), and the crane which is almost in the middle is perfectly straight. Therefore a tilt will: 1/make me crop the image (and the wide scene is one of the key here, therefore there is more to lose than to win)), 2/ that will tilt the crane, and as it is in the middle I will have to apply strong unuseful perpective correction to recover the verticals... and all that knowing that I am sure to have put my camera horizontal level perfectly straight... Sorry dear colleague this is a definitive no. I don't know by what visual phenomenon but I'm pretty sure that the camera was horizontal, otherwise why the crane is not tilted? Christian Ferrer (talk) 18:14, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- I also think it should be slightly CCW rotated. Have learnt not to trust my camera level, so maybe urs is also faulty. - Benh (talk) 18:28, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- An horizontal line have to be horizontal only if (it is indeed horizontal in the reallity, and a lake bank is not the water level?!? is it? so why it should be horizontal??) you are in front of that line and you point your camera with a prefect 90°, hotherwise this horizontal line become... a perspective... this is not the sea, this is lake bank quite close of me and I'm not at altitude o, therefore the perspective exist...find an horizontal lake bank...

- Yes I did check Google Map before. The far coast is not necessarily horizontal but it look "enough perpendicular" to us so that I think it should appear near horizontal. So I'm not really sure. Guess u r right. Sorry for disrupting the nom :) - Benh (talk) 19:04, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- No problem, it's a pleasure, sorry if I look a bit aggressive. It's simply that I don't do the things just because one says to me "do it", even if it have to cost me the success of a nomination here. I do the things when I understand the why of the how.

- No issue :) I'm fine with discussing facts. Here you make good points, that's all, so no more arguing :) - Benh (talk) 19:28, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- The benchmarks in photography are more often verticals than horizontals...., excepted for obvious cases, the sea level, and some architecture cases when you are sure that you are perpendicular. Otherwise benchmarks are in almost all cases always the verticals because we know that they are indeed vertical. Christian Ferrer (talk) 19:41, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

This is a good picture but we have had a lot of excellent head shots of birds, and I think we can afford to be discriminating about which ones we feature. The composition of this one is damaged a little by the fact that the bird is looking away. I don't think the sharpness is too bad, but overall I think it's a bit too ordinary for FP.

- Very weak support The composition, light, motifs in this series are absolutely lovely (it's like looking at a gallery of impressionistic paintings!), but the image quality not so.

- You are very careful to photograph animals in their natural environment and positions, why are you against photographing plants the way they grow? --Cart (talk) 15:17, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
- Well roses do grow straight. When I take, say, insect macro shots, my camera is seldom on the horizontal, so I do frequently rotate except where would mean that the image misrepresented real life.

- Info I initially found the second of these images when browsing QIs of birds, and was impressed by the sharpness and detail on a colourful and beautiful bird. I was going to nominate that one by itself, but on ENWiki there is currently an FP set nom with the justification that these pictures together show both the front details and the complete back of the bird.

- We also have 87 FPs of the Alps in Trentino-South Tyrol, many of them of the same alps, a place with an area of about 1/3 of Waitaha. 50 FPs of alps in Vorarlberg, area 5,8% of Waitaha.
- And then there are 103 FPs from a tiny insignificant place called Lysekil Municipality. No complaints there yet. --Cart (talk) 21:44, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
- I think the 87 FPs is far too many. There is much duplication and they cannot all be some of the finest on Commons. Surely, they devalue the FP award. If you published a book on Trentino, you wouldn't even include them all! Cart's comment about Lysekil misses the point completely. Charles (talk) 22:54, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
- My point (albeit in a cheeky comment) was that if you have an active photographer somewhere, that place will be over-represented, in line with what Podzemnik says below. --Cart (talk) 23:02, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Charlesjsharp: I wish we had more diversification at FP: geographical (there are around 31 countries without a single FP), creator (eg. Poco a Poco has created around 5 % of our FPs), topic (I think we don't have enough portraits / street photography / food photos etc. compared to eg. landscapes) and so on. The project is fully dependent on its users and it'll always be biased.

- Oppose I have no problem believing in the colors as such since I myself have photos pending editing that are way more purple in raw. But I'm not as forgiving as Benh about the rest of the processing. Too enthusiastic use of clarity and contrast plus raising the highlights on the rocks makes it look like some 90s fantasy painting, a style very common wrt Ukranian and Russian photos. I'm not fond of it though. Take a look at how nice it would look with a little dialing back some of the "usual suspects" clarity, blacks, highlights, contrast and dehaze. Color is not touched just slightly less vibrant. I would have no problem supporting a photo like that and it would probably look stunning with some proper from-raw editing. --Cart (talk) 12:40, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support Breathtaking view. Excellent photographer Balkhovitin who won the 2nd place POTY 🥈 2013 with a nomination that doesn't look over-processed, the 1st prize Wiki Loves Earth Ukraine 2019 with this candidature, and the 2nd prize in 2017. I've just nominated 1, 2, 3 at QIC, there are more available. Here the light is special due to the golden hour, that naturally enhances the colors.

I think that when the Coronavirus crisis has passed in a few months' time we'll be able to look at it with enough distance and perspective to judge fairly what kind of image might represent it at FP, but right now I think there's a temptation to feature this just because it's an important current event, while the image quality probably isn't up to it.

- Neutral I don't know how to put it, but it misses something to me... I wouldn't feature it on a cook book. Not sure if it's the too "random" setup. The framing is a bit tight with the cut shadow on the left. - Benh (talk) 19:13, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- This is the setup that I use when I do this. I like to have it in normal "working order". I was actually fixing the carrots when I thought of taking a shot of it. So I just put down the knife, washed my hands and fetched my camera. I was sure someone would object to the crop if I did it, or to too much space if I didn't. So first I uploaded a wider version. Feel free to revert to it if you find it better. With food photos on FPC, you are "damned if you do and damned if you don't". :) For any food media from this century, this would be the preferred crop. However, I have seen how modern food photos are treated here. --Cart (talk) 19:17, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oh well, I've reverted it. I guess someone will ask me to crop it now. ;) --Cart (talk) 19:39, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
- Support maybe would prefer a surface with different contrast, but this works for me. wonder if the photographer has a preferred method of cooking... — Rhododendrites talk | 04:20, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
- I was considering moving it all from my work table to some other surface, but decided I liked the tone-in-tone warmth of comforting colors. Part of the batch became an extra layer in a lasagne (I try to make it healthier). The frozen bits will be used in smaller portions together with other vegetables with stir-fried noodles, garlic and chicken. I'm not a fancy cook. --Cart (talk) 04:54, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

- It's possible, I left a good space around it all to allow for different crops, not sure it's a good idea though. It would create a lot of empty space just to get a little extra room for the stand. Let's hear what others have to say. --Cart (talk) 11:45, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

That said, as a repository rather than a publisher, the larger crop allows options that a tight one eliminates. -- Colin (talk) 20:59, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

- Neutral don't call me picky, but the wind turbine is really a deal breaker here. And only my two cents, but NR might be a bit too strong. Far rocks can't look this "plain". - Benh (talk) 20:12, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
- Don't blame the NR, blame the small sensor. My camera simply can't do details of rocks that far off, but they are not the subject here and shouldn't matter that much. For me the wind turbine is what makes the image (boat, turbine and bird are all connected to wind). --Cart (talk) 20:26, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
- No the size doesn't matter here. And it's not good to spread such word in my opinion (especially in a world where we often repeat things without checking). It's how much light gets through the lens and its quality which counts. I checked, and I your NR settings are high (much higher than what I used for sure). And I may add that you probably don't need to stop down to 5.6 on such a small sensor camera to get enough DOF. That would help you collect more light. So if ur camera does ISO50, I suggest u use that, and use a wider aperture. - Benh (talk) 21:35, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

- Comment Hmmm, not sure yet how I feel about this, for lack of a better word, 'fabricated' photo. A lot of post processing to make it dramatic and the long exposure makes the water/cliff interaction look like icing on a cake. At first I thought it was from that salty place in the Dead Sea! --Cart (talk) 11:27, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- Comment It is slightly tilted and (it may be intentional) the rocks are all blurred. Charles (talk) 13:58, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- The blurred rocks are yielded by the water "flowing over" them and the long exposure. I'd say it's intentional. - Benh (talk) 17:46, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose for now. I don't mind too much it looking unnatural, long exposure is a legitimate technique. But there are some technical issues here, the horizon seems slightly curved, and there's a weird speckly pattern of white dots across a lot of the picture. I'm not sure what's causing it. It's especially obvious when you look at the bottom left corner, but it's visible in a lot of the photo. Cmao20 (talk) 18:54, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- The dots is something that occur with some sensors in dark areas at long exposure. They are usually white but can have bright colors. No idea why they show up, but I have the same problem with my Panasonic but not with the small Sony. For good photos, I have to clone them out at 300% magnification. A h**l of a job, it can take hours! <sigh> Example, this unedited photo has them galore all over the image, especially at the bottom. Even another FPC has them. --Cart (talk) 19:36, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

- Hi Cart, I don't know if it's the case here but what you describe are so-called hotpixels that are caused by the sensor itself while it heats up during a long exposure. Ironically your cameras share the same Sony sensor, so I guess that the RX100 dissipates the heat better than your Lumix. BTW, my Lumix cameras have got a menu option called "Long Shtr NR". When activated the camera overlays a second exposure over the first in order to get rid of these nasty hotpixels. In my cameras it works quite well. --Basotxerri (talk) 15:55, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks Baso! I knew they are called hotpixels but I had no idea what caused them. Looking at how the Sony handles other aspects of photos, I suspect that it overall has better in-camera software to process the information from the sensor. The small-lens-Sony delivers more pleasant night images over all than the grainy, but sharper photos from the larger-Leica/Vario-lens on the Panasonic. Will take a look at the menu option you mention. Thanks again. :) --Cart (talk) 16:50, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

That's all. No comment on the origin of the species name "anus". But he cites also six older (Pre-Linnean) authors. That means, the shell was already known before Linné, and the name was possibly given far before 1758. --Llez (talk) 10:13, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

- Oppose You're going to struggle to achieve FP sharpness with this camera, particularly if you crop your images. Charles (talk) 14:49, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- The lower sharpness probably depends on why I had to use the zoom, because otherwise I would have missed the right moment that the dog was looking at the camera, waiting for me. I did not cut the photo excessively, I reduced the size to look for greater sharpness but evidently it was not enough. Thanks for the comment. Thanks to your comments I am trying to improve the quality of my photos. PROPOLI87 (talk) 17:00, 24 March 2020 (UTC)PROPOLI87PROPOLI87 (talk) 17:00, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- Ok, so you downsampled which is not allowed. And if you used digital zoom, that's a no-no on a bridge camera. And the dog is not looking at the camera. You really ought to try to get youtr images past QI before coming here. Then we'll all stop wasting our time. Charles (talk) 18:29, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose per Charles. There's nothing especially wrong with this photo, the framing is fine and the dog is looking at the camera, but it doesn't match up to the sharpest animal photos at FP. I think I'd give this a go at QI, I suspect it would probably pass. Cmao20 (talk) 15:48, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

- Sorry Cart, I looked for the gallery but couldn't find it among Mammalia, as I understood it like this that all Mammalia are included there. We could rename it to something like "Other Mammals". Poco a poco (talk) 21:27, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
- Not sure that is necessary. 'Artiodactyla' and 'Carnivora' have so many images, they have got their own pages branched off. It's just like with some countries under Commons:Featured pictures/Places/Natural or some groups of plants under Commons:Featured pictures/Plants. It seems to be working for most users since there are pictures/links to them at the top of each gallery page. But I'll try to make it even more visible. --Cart (talk) 21:39, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
- Fixed 'Artiodactyla' and 'Carnivora' are now included in the Commons:Featured pictures/Animals/Mammals list (alphabetically) the same way that for example 'Germany' is in 'Natural'. I think you can find them next time. I did the same for 'Asparagales' and 'Asterales' in Plants. Take a look. Also, the 'Carnivora' (and the others) was/is listed in the template you get a link to each time you create a nomination so it shouldn't be that hard to see. --Cart (talk) 22:10, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

- Comment we are lucky JJ Harrison shares his birdies with us with little (any?) concessions. But I think he goes a bit too far with the selective NR. It's like the bird is pasted into a clean background and I notice that effect even on the thumbnails. - Benh (talk) 17:50, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Benh: imho this kind of background is perfect and "clean", because it has objects far away from the bird. Imo this has nothing to do with the NR, which is used only to take down noise. --Ivar (talk) 18:06, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes I registered that long focals and small subjects yield blurry background. But it's very obvious that Noodles does selective NR and he's quite heavy handed on that. So the main subject tend to stand out even more. Here it's noticeable even on the thumbnail. It's like the bird was pasted afterwards (I know it isn't) - Benh (talk) 18:27, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- Benh, JJ H and the pros and cons about his $11,000 special lens, have been chewed about over and over again on both Wikipedia and Commons. Half the users seems to love this expensive toy, other hate it. It is good for some shots, not so much for other. --Cart (talk) 20:05, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- OK this will be my last comment on it. I know that these lenses come with shallow DOF. Not discussing pros and cons. But Noodles adds on top a heavy selective NR. And it's what gives that "layer pasted on another" effect here. The edge around the head is likely not from the lens, but from processing. Not a deal breaker, but wanted to point out that sometimes even the very best go a bit overboard. - Benh (talk) 20:16, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- "sometimes even the very best go a bit overboard" - oh yes! Totally agree with you on that. I have lately seen people using some photographers' other images as a reason for voting for their photo. But as you say, all can fall sometimes. We should always look at the photo in front of us and not be swayed by earlier accomplishments. --Cart (talk) 20:39, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

- Support Since all picture is in focus - no shallow DOF was needed - i would recomend f/7.1 or 8 using Zuiko 60mm. --Mile (talk) 12:58, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes. Obviously DoF not so important with focus-stacking, but most lenses will perform better at F8 than at the F4.5 chosen. And reduce the chance of blur between stacks. Charles (talk) 18:32, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

- Info All by me. As of today, we're in self-isolation for the next 4 weeks or more in New Zealand. I thought I'd experiment a bit with things around me - this is my first shot. These are home-grown tomatoes, unripe to ripe, sorted in a circle. -- Podzemnik (talk) 23:54, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

- Support Of course. Even if this crisis is horrible and we could all do without it, it seems that FPC is benefiting from it since photographers take photos of things other than their usual subjects. --Cart (talk) 00:49, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

- Info Gallery fixed. You need to really check out and find the exact gallery and section since the FPCBot is now sorting pictures automatically. Go to the gallery page and copy the page name and heading to get the spelling right. For more info see this. --Cart (talk) 18:46, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Not one of the Google Art Project's better digitisations. The detail looks quite blurry - in the best painting digitisations I've seen, a lot of the fine brushwork is visible, but we are a fair distance away from that here. I think there are some JPEG artefacts too. I don't think I can forgive these issues given that the resolution isn't that high (even lower when you consider that a lot of the picture is taken up with the frame).
