- Info IMO a harmonious and satisfying composition with interesting light, crisp reflections, and the boat to provide a nice counterpoint. created by Ximonic - uploaded by Ximonic - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 19:56, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

but the white balance is wrong IMO. The temperature shouldn't be so warm at 3:22 pm in September in Norway-- Basile Morin (talk) 02:04, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

- Support, but I'm agree with Basile. --Tournasol7 (talk) 06:03, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Support Nice, but something may be wrong with the colors. It looks a little bit like golden hour, may be WB is too warm. --XRay 💬 08:42, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Yeah, sunset time at this place on the 21st Sept 2015 was 7:08 pm, then it's too early for golden glow -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:06, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Golden glow has to do with how high the sun is on the horizon, not when it rises and sets, and this far north the sun is low all day long in the autumn. --Cart (talk) 10:23, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Compare here at 5:45 pm, more than 2 hours later. Regards -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:37, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, and the light is very golden to the right where the sun is shining on the hills, the rest of the photo, in shadows, is blue as shadows usually are. --Cart (talk) 10:47, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Yellowish sky here, not blue. Yellowish rocks, too -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:56, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for nominating the old photo. I changed the white balance a bit. A polarizing filter was used in taking the photograph which reduced some atmospheric haze but may also have altered the colors, like filters usually do. Matter of taste, matter of decisions. --Ximonic (talk) 18:35, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Done Not a bit, quite enough :-) Fixed now, thank you. And thanks also for the new resolution with more pixels -- Basile Morin (talk) 19:54, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Comment This is up at Lofoten where the sun is low on the horizon in September so it can give a golden glow all day, especially if it's a bit cloudy. --Cart (talk) 09:42, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

But given the color on the trees already, it may not matter so much above 66º33'). Daniel Case (talk) 14:31, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

- Support Great resolution and a symmetrical background. I find this a very restful composition and pretty darn close to perfect. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:25, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I think the PoV is too low. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:32, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose The number of pixels in the image isn't a guarantee of resolution. The long exposure (0.4s) will have required tripod but something went wrong. Shutter shake? Was a remote-control used or did the camera move after pressing the shutter button? Compare File:Kirchschönbach Kirche Taufstein-20210321-RM-170941.jpg, which is very much sharper. This is 72 blurred megapixels vs 62 sharp ones, though the other image has weaker composition. I also wonder about the subject. It says 1604 but it looks about as old as something I'd find for sale in my local garden centre. Is this a reproduction, and the original is elsewhere, or lost? -- Colin (talk) 09:54, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
- Much less interesting composition. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:19, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
- Question Yes, not old. Is AB the same as AD? Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:49, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

-
- I could be wrong, of course, but it's my guess. --Cart (talk) 15:26, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
sounds unlikely - why would it be AB? 'AB 1604' could be German for 'from 1604', but you can see plaster peeling off the base. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:30, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

- I could be wrong, of course, but it's my guess. --Cart (talk) 15:26, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

- Support I could photograph from a small embankment very close to the building for a more interesting (higher above ground) shooting position. There was imho also favorable light. I look forward to your comments-- Tuxyso (talk) 06:40, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Oppose Nice image, but the building looks strange, leaning. Composition not so good.--Mile (talk) 07:41, 24 April 2021 (UTC)- Comment Thanks for your review. Could you please specify what is leaning, Mile. I used the internal leveler of my camera and very slight fine corrections in post. I've checked again: Every vertical is perfectly straight. Probably the slight higher shooting positions (above ground on an embankment) misleads you with your judgement? --Tuxyso (talk) 07:54, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Done. PD corection made top much biger in size than botom. --Mile (talk) 08:06, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose Nice building but I agree with Ikan, the shadows falling on the building tend to make the composition a bit overly complex and unsatisfying. Cmao20 (talk) 16:38, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Support To be honest, I like it, especially with the complex pattern the shadows draw on the building. But I agree that this really is a matter of taste. --Aristeas (talk) 09:18, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose It's not just the trees that distract, per Ikan, it's the shadows of the trees on the building, otherwise framed at a very nice three-quarters angle. Daniel Case (talk) 14:59, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose I agree with above. Other than that it's still very nice documentary image of this building to have in Commons, and good quality. --Ximonic (talk) 12:17, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: It is smaller than the absolute minimum of 2 megapixels which is required for consideration here. Consider a nomination at COM:VIC if this is the best photo in its scope. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:18, 4 May 2021 (UTC) | Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed. |

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: the focus of this image falls short of what's expected at FPC | Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed. |

When you move the file, you have to move the nomination page with it, or the FPCBot will not be able to process the image correctly if it is promoted.

- Info The golden orb-eaver spiders weave a golden web. The colour is more distinct under flash. The image is best seen on a large screen or in close-up so you can see that six of her seven legs are in use, with the seventh just about to help. All by Charlesjsharp -- Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:33, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support -- Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:33, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Not seeing what is FP about this. The angle is awkward with the head hidden by a leg and facing away. The background distracting. The composition is just "subject in centre of frame". The lighting from the flash causes harsh reflections off the body that are especially troublesome as the sides have white markings and the white we mostly see here is reflected flash. There are other FP in this genus: File:Nephila inaurata dsc07682.jpg and File:Spider Nephila clavata 0911.jpg. -- Colin (talk) 16:38, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- I see there are 2 FPs. The two images are located in the FP gallery under a spurious family Nephilidae which doesn't exist, which I why I missed them. To give a response as to what is FP about this in my view - most spider images (e.g. all our FPs) are of stationary animals. This one is at work weaving its web with a skill that very few spider species possess. To capture that is quite a challenge. Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:43, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- But you haven't "captured that": it is not at all apparent that this spider is "at work". They just seem to be hanging about and the photographer is at at an unfortunate angle wrt its head. So that's a negative, rather than positive. Perhaps a short movie clip would be better, along with more suitable lighting. -- Colin (talk) 07:56, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support I find this interesting to move my eye around, and that's enough for me to consider it an FP, along with Charles' point above about what he captured. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:54, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

So, the pictures I've taken of religious buildings that are FP-quality compositionally are not there technically, and vice versa. Daniel Case (talk) 14:42, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

General settings plus a few gradient filters to tone down some bright areas and give the water an extra boost. My settings are in Swedish, but I think you can figure them out anyway since the order of LR functions is the same. Keep in mind that values work a bit differently when editing a jpeg vs the raw. --Cart (talk) 08:32, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose No wow --Michielverbeek (talk) 19:25, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Very good, but I need something (like a cloud) in the upper right corner for the composition to be fully satisfying to me. Could be an excellent VI with the name of the canal identified in the scope, though, and definitely a superior QI. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:16, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

- Comment The view from Rotmauer is one of the clearest (e.g. with fewest obstructing trees in an area covered mostly by forest) one can get of the Gesäuse mountains from the east.

- Comment Very good, but can you make the verticals of buildings and posts straigth, they look a bit tilted and are leaning out especially at the right. --Uoaei1 (talk) 13:04, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Thanks for your feedback! I've compared the picture against a grid, and I can't really see any systematic leaning of verticals. The buildings in particular (everywhere on the picture) look pretty vertical. Some posts are not exactly straight, but I assume that is because they are leaning for real. Do you have any particular building or post in mind that you think needs to be corrected? I'm happy to do so of course. --Domob (talk) 09:56, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

- So I have to apologize for using the terminus technicus in a wrong way. I am very sorry. The German word Gegenlicht which I tried to translate (misguided by the dictionaries) as contre-jour is often, even by some classic books about photography (e.g. by Andreas Feininger), used in a more general way for lighting of the subject from behind; that may explain my error. Anyway, this is my fault, so please do not vote against Ermell’s photo because I have incorrectly called it contre-jour ;–). --Aristeas (talk) 09:03, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

- Info This panorama shows the Upper Rhine Plain over a distance of about 100 km, from the Fremersberg in the south to the Biblis Nuclear Power Plant in the north; created by Llez - uploaded by Llez - nominated by Llez -- Llez (talk) 09:17, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support -- Llez (talk) 09:17, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Sorry, this isn't making me go wow, nor do I think it is a great photo. I think even panoramas need some composition choice and an interesting subject. Most of the view is nearby grass, sky, or distant landscape with heat haze blurring any detail. The nearby village isn't picturesque. At about 1/3 from the left, the buildings and poles are leaning. -- Colin (talk) 09:29, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

- Comment This is surely good and very useful, but I can't decide whether it's an FP or not. I realize the distances are great, but there's a lot of haze, so I wonder whether a different time of year or different weather might work better.

- Oppose The reflection isn't appealing (photographer lying on a bed?). The focus stack result just looks weird with bits randomly in and out of focus, and quite a lot of the eye itself is not in focus. What is in focus is the skin, some random bits of hair, and the photographer. Compare File:003 2016 02 23 Augenpflege.jpg which just looks more natural. -- Colin (talk) 11:02, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I think it would have been better if you had tried to make the photographer/yourself less conspicuous in the photo and let the window (or the world outside) be the center if the kid's attention. A big dark man creeping up on a child that looks startled is no doubt an effect, but probably not the effect you were looking for. --Cart (talk) 11:38, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Alternative
[edit]- Info The depth of field of a macro lens is very shallow, all the more camera held by hand. You need to be very close. Shooting with an angle would create more blur around. It might be possible to use a tripod, but then the "story" told in the picture would be slightly different -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:26, 14 May 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose (I think people who already voted should be pinged that there's an alt). Same issues as the other one. I don't think cropping further helps, as it just focuses everything more on the dark creepy figure lying on a bed! -- Colin (talk) 14:21, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
- Regretful oppose A bold idea that just didn't make it in this iteration. I like the reflection of the photographer, but the eyelashes every which way are distracting (not much you could do about that, I concede) and as noted by other !voters the focus stack isn't working.

- Support Huge educational value. The guidelines state: A bad picture of a very difficult subject is better than a good picture of an ordinary subject. Here the rarity overwhelms the flaws, in my opinion. This image calls out in relation to customs and cultural diversity in the world -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:58, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Not relevant; this is a very easy subject. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:09, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Difficult because 1) the opportunity doesn't come often, 2) there are psychological obstacles to overcome.
- What is rare is precious. How many pictures like this one do we have on Commons? -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:41, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Googling the subject, it's clear that this tradition is becoming a hotspot for photographers, much like the mud racing we had earlier. And yes, not that difficult to shoot since the main subjects are not moving about a lot here. But it is a good quality photo, a rarity with high EV and something we haven't had on Commons before so I tend to agree with Basile on this. It is a photo of gentleness and caring that certainly makes you look twice; that is also a kind of 'wow' that takes this over the bar for FP IMO. --Cart (talk) 11:56, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

- Tempered Support: I feel like there's too much black doorway on the left, but maybe one could see something metaphoric in that. But I find it a compelling image. I don't think it matters that the entrance is tilted, and the body on the left looks actually tilted. The background with the cigarettes, water bottles and so forth doesn't add much, but we can see this as an outdoor workshop, and workshops are often a bit messy. However, his work in making the clothing fit just right on the bodies is painstaking. To some up, I'm not losing the forest by nitpicking the trees, and sometimes, it's really the whole and the impact that it makes that's more important than x, y and z details that fall short of some theoretical ideal that we don't have before us. If we get several much greater photos of this practice, we can always reconsider, but right now, the question is whether this is one of the best photos that's actually on Commons - however we define "best". And overall, I think it is. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:15, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Bird on blue sky in hard light. Compare existing FP File:Saxtor.jpg which is a much more animated fellow, and pleasing composition/colours. -- Colin (talk) 17:00, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

- Charles, we're talking about capturing the moment, good light, good colours, good composition. Pixel peeping the other photo just shows that the point is being missed. -- Colin (talk) 08:09, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

- let's see if others have an opinion, before cropping. Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:10, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Can we please put the rule of thirds to death at FPC. Or at least, anyone who quotes it should be required to refrain from opposing another image due to "composition". It's a poor guide for newbies who don't know any better yet. Since FPC serves as a teaching environment for some new photographs, it would be sad if they felt this "rule" had any merit. -- Colin (talk) 08:09, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
- The rule of thirds does have merit. Since when was FPC supposed to serve as a teaching environment? Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:20, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
- FPC was not designed to be a teaching environment, nevertheless it has become that. New photographers come here to learn from comments made about photos and to make their first tentative nominations all the time. I can think of a number of users who have improved their photography skills thanks to this forum. The page views for this forum, plus the list, in English only is at an average of about 450/day.

- Info Here we go, experimenting again. Photographing lightning in daylight is a bit different than at night, you can't just leave the shutter open and let the flash fix the exposure, so there aren't that many such photos here on Commons and no FPs. With a thunderstorm coming in from the sea, I set up the camera on a tripod, pointed it in the direction I hoped the flashes would appear (that also had the best foreground) set the video rolling and hoped for the best.
- I managed to get three flashes on video and one of them looked pretty nice, so I selected the best frame and used it as "raw" to process a photo. Hence the small size. And yes, my camera can shoot video in 4K, but only at 25 frames/sec. With flashes being rather quick it was better to set it to full HD and get 50 frames/sec instead. All by me, -- Cart (talk) 12:39, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Abstain as author. -- Cart (talk) 12:39, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Too small. Compare with File:Port and lighthouse overnight storm with lightning in Port-la-Nouvelle.jpg for example -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:26, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- That's a nighttime shot, so different technique. This is shot in daylight as explained above. --Cart (talk) 07:50, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Only 2 Mpx, this resolution was maybe fine in 2005 or 2006, but in 2021 modern equipment allow to produce much bigger images, more impressive. Even my mobile phone takes 8K videos (33 Mpx x 24 frames per second), that look great when downsized at 4K. But this picture is not 4K, it is really tiny, reaching the acceptable limit of the guidelines without real justification. Also posterized sky with visible artifacts at the left -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:22, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, I know, but you need 50 frames per second to properly capture a flash of lightning so that limits the size. With 24 fps you can miss it or it will get blurry. --Cart (talk) 08:40, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Disagree. I made similar videos when I was in Vientiane (that day), from which I could extract pictures perfectly fine at 24 fps -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:53, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Wow! You can extract perfect shots of lightning in daylight from a 24 fps. Please show us, I would love to see that and it would be great to have them on Commons. Posterization fixed, thanks for pointing it out. --Cart (talk) 09:04, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

- Fixed I have removed as much CA as possible (automatic and manual), you have to have a very light touch because of all the lights in green and magenta (corrections are prone to spill over), and tweaked the perspective. Made in two steps in case someone thinks these are too big adjustments for overwrites, please revert if you think so. But now I think the photo is good to go.

- Oppose I do not feel comfortable voting for a picture of a child abuser. Saeed Toosi has the main role in this picture and all these people are listening to him, so his presence in the picture cannot be considered small and minor. I do not even need to look at Wikimedia policies, everything related to child sexual abuse is a red line. --IamMM (talk) 07:54, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support @W.carter: Thank you very much for your great effort to rescue the photo from the CAs! – I understand and respect IamMM’s reservations, but for my simple European eyes this is mainly a photo of the illuminated mosque and of the praying congregation, so (in all respect) I think it is venial to promote the photo even from an ethical point of view. --Aristeas (talk) 08:42, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Aristeas: I do not insist that others agree with this, and I also confirm that this image has no other problem to be chosen than the presence of Mr. Toosi himself. But at the same time, I still can not accept that having technical standards is a good/enough reason to consciously place a photo of a famous child sexual abuser on the main page of Commons. In response to your argument , if my Persian eyes saw a eye-catching and impressive photograph of a historic European church in which a priest accused of similar acts was lecturing, I would still strongly oppose it regardless of cultural or geographical differences.--IamMM (talk) 09:42, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- The main point of FPs is not to place them on the main page of Commons, that is a side-effect for very few FPs. There are always FPs not chosen for POTD on the main page for a number of reasons. Massmurderers, other offenders and their doings seldom make it to POTD. FPs exist so that we can get good pictures for all the different parts of the WikiProjects. Neutral Wikipedias are striving to be as good encyclopedias as possible, and it would look rather strange if only articles of pleasant things had good photos, while offensive stuff had bad or no pictures at all. I have supported many images of things I don't like or agree with here, simply for the sake of the encyclopedic value of them. If you have an ethical problem with any image, I think it would be better if you voiced your concern at POTD instead. --Cart (talk) 10:03, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- I have added some English to the photo's description. Perhaps someone speaking Arabic can tweak it for the better. I also noted that Mr. Toosi is present in the photo. Information like that is helpful if you want to state why a photo might not be appropriate for POTD. --Cart (talk) 10:51, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- (You mean someone who can read Farsi.) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:14, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

- Yes, I see this. Silly remark by me. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:55, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
- @IamMM: I completely understand and respect your point of view! I am so sorry, my “European eyes” was liable to be misunderstood. I did not want to assert any cultural or geographical differences regarding crime, justice, or ethics – child sexual abuse is a terrible crime, period, and should be regarded and prosecuted everywhere on the world regardless of cultural or geographical differences. What I wanted to say was just that simple people like me who are not familar with the distinctive features of Islamic prayer and especially not with the sophisticated practice of Qur’an recitation, do not even see that this photo emphasizes or features any special person -- all I see are many persons praying together in an illuminated, beautiful mosque. But I get the feeling that the more I write the more I am getting in trouble. I just wanted to review a photo, I did not want to harm anybody, I did not want to defend child sexual abuse or any other crime, and it’s probably best that I stop to write anything here before I get blocked or prosecucted. Should I leave Commons? Sorry to all of you and all the best to all of you. --Aristeas (talk) 10:10, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
FYI. I hope you are satisfied now. --Aristeas (talk) 10:13, 9 May 2021 (UTC)Thank you, IamMM, for your clarification (answered there) and sorry to all of you for the confusion. Probably this was a series of entangled misunderstandings. Sorry again and all the best. --Aristeas (talk) 11:22, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
- According to the Wikipedia article Saeed Toosi was acquitted, therefore the comments of IamMM could be considered libel. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:56, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
- The story of how Saeed Toosi was acquitted and the role of the Iranian leader in preventing the trial is one of the reasons for the sensitivity of the case.[1][2] Following the Iranian judiciary's refusal to hear the case, the families of the child victims went to the Turkish judiciary to pursue their complaint, and legal action is ongoing (according to MP Mahmoud Sadeghi). The English Wiki article is inaccurate in this regard.--IamMM (talk) 11:04, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Drama, drama... Seriously, as a neutral Wikipedian I might support even a picture of Marc Dutroux, if we got a featurable one (yet by now there is no photo whatsoever, alas). So I'm going to judge as a neutral Wikipedian actually should judge. The picture is not bad, but the sharpness is maybe just barely OK for QI, the composition with the barely cropped towers is average, there is vignetting, and the green lighting does not really add something to the Blue hour mood, as it probably should do. --A.Savin 11:56, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

Also it is taken with slightly bad timing and too close, making the person dark and big (had he been turned slightly to the sun to catch some light, it would have been better) and his reflection in the sand is cut at the head, more or less crop would be better.

- Comment For me personally this is an instructive photo, so thank you for pointing it out. There is definitely an FP in the scenery, but this photo has not revealed it; and I have spent some time thinking about the lessons this photo teaches me. The most important point has been stated by Daniel: to limit the composition to the most photogenic items, namely trees, archways, and reflections; and it would probably be necessary to include the whole reflections of the trees (instead of the upper part of the rocks). From the point of view of a historian or archeologist, the relief and the little arch at the right are important, but for a photographer the trees and the reflections are more important because together with the two big archways they form a solid, photogenic composition. In addition, sharpness and level of details are not perfect (a better lens and f/5.6 or f/8 would have helped). The brightness, gradation, and colour balance are unlucky, too, but these points could probably be fixed completely if we had access to a raw image file. --Aristeas (talk) 08:14, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

- Comment I've never liked these
John Harrison'sblurred forgrounds. They look artificial even thoughhe has explainedit's the lens that causes the effect. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:08, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
- To clarify, the extremely special and very expensive lens used here and on a lot of JJ Harrison's bird photos, allows the photographer to select a very narrow band of perfectly sharp DoF while the rest of the image (foreground and background) becomes a smooth bokeh. If the bird is photographed in flight up in the sky, this effect is hardly noticeable, but at ground level it can look somewhat surreal. It's a style choice; some like and some don't. More info about the lens here. --Cart (talk) 19:33, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
- Can we please avoid making personal negative comments ("I've never liked John Harrison's blurred forgrounds"). This is absolutely standard at an advanced level of wildlife photography. See this and this, this, this and this, etc, etc, etc. -- Colin (talk) 21:12, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
- Ahum, this is not about getting down and dirty for a low level of shooting; Charles himself recommends it both here and here on current nominations. It's only this specific lens with its bokeh capabilities that's bugging him. We've heard it several times before (Like here for example). --Cart (talk) 23:05, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
- No disrespect, Charles, but there is low and there is on-the-ground low. That lizard photo was either taken on sloping ground [it was Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:37, 13 May 2021 (UTC)] or from about knee height (otherwise we'd see sky or distant shrubs/trees in the background). The links I gave show some examples of the difference achieved when you get really really low. I remember reading a discussion from JJ with Diliff many many years ago that described crawling along mud flats on one's belly for a very long distance. The lizard photo was taken from 2.4m according to the EXIF with a 470mm equivalent lens giving a field-of-view of 4.4°. This photo I don't know the distance but the 1500mm equivalent lens has a tiny field-of-view of 1.4°. The difference of low height + distance here means we have a long section of foreground compressed into a thin slice. It wouldn't I believe, look a whole lot different with a 500mm lens vs 1500mm equivalent. The effect is largely due to angle-of-view: the linked websites show many very similar images shot with fairly standard telephoto lenses.
- But importantly, I don't think it is healthy to negatively single out a person by name, as though this is "John Harrison's blurred forgrounds". Reviewers here might personally associated that look with one photographer, but that says more about reviewers at FPC and their experiences and observations than it does about that photographer. And negative comments like these make advanced photographers despair and decide to contribute to websites where their skill and talents are appreciated, not questioned. -- Colin (talk) 09:12, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- Following the discussion Cart links to I had a long offline discussion with JJH and totally accepted the results produced by his lens. I vote to promote many of his excellent images. I just don't like the blurred foreground look, though I have not opposed this nomination. And, I have never pretended to be an advanced photographer, Colin.

- Oppose I think summer is unfortunately not the ideal time to photograph a south-facing building. If it's too close to sunrise/sunset, then the facade will be in shadow. If it's too close to noon, then the lighting and sky will be boring. I think you tried to straddle the difference by shooting at 4 PM, but it could have been much better any other season. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:46, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support Works for me. There's just enough contrast, and the bright, simple sky brings out the whiteness and shapes of the facade. Very well-composed, too. It probably wouldn't have worked without the contrast of the gardens, though. My father had a book of very good pictures of Mormon temples from I guess the early 20th century, and this photo reminds me of photos in that book. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:03, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment There's something else that's a little harder to put my hands on: There's a kind of metaphorical purity to this photo. If you look up photos of LDS temples, most of them are white. I feel like this light accentuates the whiteness, and I don't have to be (and am not) LDS in order to appreciate the statement being made by the setting. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:07, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

I remember seeing the Idaho Falls temple from across the Snake River on the afternoon of the eclipse with IMO just the right lighting and getting a few shots of it ...

Oppose Background has been replaced with artificial background.Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:07, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
- I don't think so. Artificial backgrounds have the same info all over when you pull the levels to extremes (saturation and light); they are homogenous. This is what this photo looks like when you do that and there are plenty of blotches and information in the background. To compare, I made an artificial background for the photo, and with the same enhancement settings it looks like this. There is a big difference. You can download the photo and do this test yourself in Photoshop. --Cart (talk) 15:46, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
- All I am doing is reading the statement on the file page. Check it out Cart. May be that is wrong, and if so I will change my vote. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:48, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, I see that, thanks Charles for pointing it out, I only went by what I see in the photo and it doesn't seems to be added in a computer. I wonder if something hasn't gone lost in translation here. Famberhorst, when you write "artificial background", do you mean that you photographed the flower against a black wall or paper as opposed to a natural environment outdoors? Artificial for me is when the background is added later using color in the computer. We might be talking about two different things here. --Cart (talk) 21:06, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
- The pot with the flower was placed against a dark background and then photographed.--Famberhorst (talk) 04:38, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for clarifying. So only a language misunderstanding and how to use the 'retouched' template. I see that you have removed the text from the template. The template can be completely removed since it is not needed for the very small corrections you have made. It should only be used for bigger alterations in the computer. --Cart (talk) 06:33, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

- Comment @PetarM and Charlesjsharp: You are correct, thanks. There was a little piece of bright detritus there. I gave removing it another shot. IMO it looks better, but let me know what you think. — Rhododendrites talk | 14:54, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, these bits are easily missed. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:03, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- It could be better, some editing "ball" now visible but good shot, ISO 2000. Bird is like mirrored, polarizer used ? --Mile (talk) 16:40, 16 May 2021 (UTC) p.S. I would write location. Prospect park migth be good for your neighbour, but for me not much. Country, State etc.
- Sure, but without the original note I'm not sure it's very visible. It's true that my Photoshop skills are not as good as some, though. No polarizer. I took probably 100 shots of this bird; this one had the best combination of sharpness, reflection, and light (there wasn't much, though, hence 2000 ISO). Also, I added additional info to the description. I typically use just "Prospect Park" and "Central Park" because the ones I'm talking about are the default categories (Category:Prospect Park/Category:Central Park), but it doesn't hurt to have it in the description, too. — Rhododendrites talk | 16:52, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Can you explain what you mean by "mirrored, polarizer used?" please Mile. Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:18, 17 May 2021 (UTC) Charlesjsharp This. --Mile (talk) 08:30, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- I don't know how much wildlife photography you have done Mile, but a polarizer is seldom used. Firstly, it takes time to set up and the moment may have gone. Secondly, I don't believe it would achieve the desired effect on this type of picture where you want the reflection. The polarizer makes it easier to 'see through' the water, which is not what Rhododendrites would have wanted here. Some users here use FPC as a learning resource, so giving "expert" advice is unwise unless it is expert. Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:29, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

- Comment The pipe was not part of the original design, was it? Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:12, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Info @Charlesjsharp: I am unable to give a definitive answer. A few pointers that might help you decide are that the gargoyle was put in place during Hogett's lifetime (he died a year ago and this photo was taken five years ago) and that his tenure at the cathedral started in 1971. Martinvl (talk) 14:39, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Probably was then, but it doesn't work for me. Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:57, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment IMHO the pipe contributes to the grotesque effect (which is obviously intentional, the face is rather a caricature). I assume this is an example of British humour? (At least it would be unthinkable to honour famous people in this way here in Germany. That’s a pity, really, I would like to see one of my professors honoured in that way ;–). --Aristeas (talk) 09:25, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
- The pipe is part of the design and an indication it is a true gargoyle rather than just a grotesqeue. There is another here of John Treadgold, dean of Chichester. This geograph photo shows both, and is IMO a better image, though quite small. -- Colin (talk) 10:56, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

- Neutral I find the empty sky somewhat boring as there is quite much of it. The strong sunlight makes the terrain look flattish, with dark but sharp shadows. It also causes less variation in the fine tones of highlighted parts, and I'd love some plasticity especially in mountains. They are typical problems for full day light landscapes. Another bother is the peak that is very close to the top edge, otherwise the composition is good. The picture is good, but these issues don't make it an exceptional for my taste. --Ximonic (talk) 21:29, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Am I understanding this correctly that this is a digitally created portrait of the artist Victoria Aguirre Anchorena? I mean, it can't be made by her since she died in 1927, so who made this digital portrait? The description need to be clarified, the gallery probably changed if this is a computer-generated image and the categories needs to be sorted out. --Cart (talk) 17:50, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
- It's part of contest Commons:Ilustratona made by the uploader, based on several pictures of the women, but without copying nothing of them. Ezarateesteban 17:59, 14 May 2021 (UTC)

- Ok, thanks for the explanation, I am very well aware of the process of making a portrait illustration. You need to add that to the description on the file page for clarification, and please fix the categories. Was she know for her cosmetics?

It's silly, per Cart's comment, her face is strangely shaped for no apparent artistic reason, and there's a bunch of what we could call posterization instead of a lifelike gradient or something. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:40, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose as above Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:28, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- First, thanks so much to Rocio and other participants in this contest! I'm so glad it attracted some high-quality work. It's important to remember that FPC almost never sees work like this. We mostly look at photographs and photographs (or scans) of notable art (and a diagram/infographic every once in a while). We don't regularly see original illustrations like this, so if you get a negative response here that doesn't mean it's not a very good and useful illustration; it means FPC might not be the right venue (certainly COM:VIC makes sense, at least).
This image is a stylized illustration, which takes some liberties with proportions in a way that's common for illustrations (it reminds me of some things I've seen, which I cannot put a finger on right now), but which might be a little confusing if the purpose is encyclopedic illustration. I'm also not sure about the choice to have her applying make-up per cart. Regardless, it's well done and I appreciate the level of finish. I think it's something you should be proud of, and to contribute it with a free license is appreciated. I would probably come in with a support, but I worry that the first three votes (other than the nominator) came in quickly from three people who have never before participated at FPC. That's often a sign of canvassing. Since our process here is based on numbers/voting, canvassing hurts the integrity of what we're trying to do here. Hopefully I'm wrong. — Rhododendrites talk | 14:50, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- This is very much in naïve Latin American art style, so I don't mind the technique. Hey, even Frida Kahlo used it (even the color sceme), so I can understand why it might look familiar to Rhododendrites. It is up to the artist how a person is depicted. I have also seen other works of art, as non-realistic as this, used in articles, can't remember where now though, but they were up for discussion when I made that first Kim Jong-un image back in the Stone Age. Funny this should surface just as I made a sketch of another creepy guy, see my post here after A.Savin's comment here. But with this image, I do find the way with the putting on rouge a bit demeaning for a portrait of a female artist if this isn't something she is known for in some way. As for canvassing, it's often as simple as that a nominator posts a comment saying "Hey, a drawing by one of 'our' illustrator is up at FPC", and people just want to be supportive to their wiki community. --Cart (talk) 15:26, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Found two of the articles with murals: Harry Parr-Davies and Daniel Peredo. --Cart (talk) 21:38, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Re: canvassing. Indeed. Which is why, when I tell people in my various wiki communities I have something at FPC, I always ask them not to vote unless they're a regular participant and would've voted anyway. We're even more vulnerable to canvassing here at FPC than discussions on-wiki because we're completely numbers based. — Rhododendrites talk | 15:47, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment My father had a very large collection of books with comic illustrations and similar prints. I'm well aware of illustrations and have an appreciation for those I find good. By the way, I've never liked Kahlo's work, either. Neither in music nor art do I take received opinion of these times as Gospel. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:21, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Acknowledging that an art style exist and naming it is not the same as liking it. Personally I don't think this is an FP-rated example of the genre. --Cart (talk) 10:13, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Understood. I just don't want anyone to get the wrong idea. I've supported a large number of nominations of illustrations and nominated some myself. They were pretty much all at least 100 years old, but that's just because of copyright restrictions. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:02, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

- Thanks for taking the time to do that. I went ahead and worked from the raw file to redo it. I usually prefer to use the minimum jpeg compression, too (presumably why the filesizes are so different?).
As for f/16, I'm often in shutter priority mode based on how far I'm zoomed/how much the subject is moving, adjusting ISO based on light. Honestly, if I felt I had enough time, I would've made a couple adjustments here (ISO down to 200, and speed up a little to bring the aperture a bit wider), but in a couple hours of hanging around these birds this was the moment I was able to get physically closest so didn't hesitate, and I think the result is still pretty good. — Rhododendrites talk | 13:40, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

- Info Female brown-headed cowbird chattering in Queens, New York (males sing, but females also have a distinct chatter they make during mating season). They're not the most exciting birds to look at, but don't let her simple appearance distract you -- this bird is a bit of a monster (that is to say, a brood parasite). Rather than build a nest, she will lay her egg along with those of another bird, and the bird of another species will raise it as one of their own, often to the demise of their own chicks. Thus how it learns the distinct songs/chatters is a little bit of a mystery, since they're never raised by their own species.

- Comment Hi Gpkp and welcome to FPC. A bit of advice when you nominate someone else's photos here: Check out the size of the photo and compare with what size the camera is capable of delivering. This file is 1920 × 1280 pixels, while the camera can deliver 6000 × 4000 pixels. Almost all of Paul Hudson's photos are rather small for the camera he is using, so it is very likely that he has downsized them all. Downsizing (or downsampling) is usually a bad idea here at FPC per the guidelines. There are some other issues with your nominations, but we'll take things one step at a time. I would however suggest you read the guidelines and rules more carefully. --Cart (talk) 17:47, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

- @Tomer T: Thanks for the nomination! I uploaded several photos of tree swallows sticking their heads out of nest boxes recently. The two I was toying with nominating were this one and this one. I don't know if they would pass, but I think one of them is probably worth a shot. The first has a similar shallow DoF to this nomination, but I prefer the angle, direction the bird is facing, and background. The second has a DoF that covers the subject, but a strong shadow (which I don't mind because it accentuates the face and the overall "angry bird" look :) ). — Rhododendrites talk | 12:36, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

- I guess my question would be whether those who like this image prefer it to File:Tree swallow in a nest box in JBWR (24519).jpg (which was my most likely nomination of the bunch), File:Tree swallow in a nest box in JBWR (25673).jpg, or even the similar File:Tree swallow in JBWR (24707).jpg (looking towards the camera rather than very slightly away)? Obviously promoting this one would all but preclude nominating any of the others, which is the reason I haven't supported here. — Rhododendrites talk | 15:53, 21 May 2021 (UTC) @Ikan Kekek, Martin Falbisoner, and W.carter: — Rhododendrites talk | 15:54, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry, the 'ping' didn't work for some reason, so I just noticed this. To me, from an artistic POV, this nom is the best and it has 'wow factor'. The (24519) is the best encyclopedic photo. --Cart (talk) 09:40, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I do like File:Tree swallow in a nest box in JBWR (25673).jpg best. To be clear, I haven't voted for this nomination; I was just surprised it was described as "Nowhere near FP quality", a statement two other people already signed onto, and I appreciate Charles' enumerations of the shortcomings of this photo. I think we should try to mention some when it might not be blindingly obvious to others that the photo in question is so obviously not worth consideration here, but this remark isn't intended as a criticism of anyone. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:06, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

- Support This is my first photo that may be featured picture worthy; in fact, my first photo that I have felt was worth uploading to Commons. As I'm new to this, I'd especially appreciate any constructive criticism. -- Lambda (talk) 16:58, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Thanks for having a go here. I would try submitting images to QI and see how they get on. Compare the sharpness of your images , especially the eye and the feathers, with other bird FPs. Watch some youtube videos on photographing black birds (the most difficult) - here you need to lighten shadows. Try to get a coloured background, not a white one. Try to avoid having stuff in the foreground that is out of focus. Try to keep ISO down to 800. Most important, think carefully about the composition, so here we might expect to see more of the bird in the frame. I assume you were using a tripod as 1/640 sec with an 800m lens is no good handheld. Easier to experiment with hand holding (300/400mm lens) then you can play with the composition. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:15, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Thanks for the excellent critique! I've posted this photo in a few places and this is the best critique I've gotten so far. The one major issue I had noticed was the ISO; it's grainy in the shadows, which means that I probably can't bring the shadows up too much without making the grain even more prominent. I was actually shooting handheld, the lens has image stabilization which seems to work pretty well, though I don't know how far I can push the shutter speed before the image stabilization doesn't help; this is a big lens to shoot handheld, though quite light for an 800. 800 was too much for this shot, you're right; I was finding it hard to fit the whole bird into the frame. I was able to do so in some other shots from other angles, but I didn't think any of them had come out quite as well as this one. Here's a gallery of a few of the other shots and edits. I preferred the less colorful background of this image to the brighter colors of some of the others, as I feel like the colors pull the eye away from the textures of the ravens feathers; for artistic purposes, I prefer the monochrome versions, though for Commons I think the color image is more informative. On sharpness, I've seen featured images that are sharper, and other that are less sharp, like the Jubilee and Munin photo File:Jubilee and Munin, Ravens, Tower of London 2016-04-30.jpg, though that's more interesting for other reasons, the pose. Thanks for the comments, I will definitely work on getting the ISO and shutter speed dialed in correctly, shorter lenses or shooting from further back, and trying to get the sharpness and shadows up a bit. Lambda (talk) 18:29, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Hi! To clarify, QI means Commons:Quality images. Since this is your first upload, you probably haven't heard about it yet. Going straight to FPC is like jumping in at the deep end the first time you're in a pool. :-) Most new users start nominating at Commons:Quality images candidates to get proper feedback about what is expected on Commons in general. There is also Commons:Photography critiques for more tips about your photos. Welcome to Commons! --Cart (talk) 18:06, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Thanks for the clarifications and pointers! I had considered going to Commons:Quality images first, but looking at some of the other featured images thought this one might have something to offer, and I might get some better feedback if not, shoot too low and I might not get enough criticism. I'm pretty happy with the criticism I'm getting so far, but yeah, I'll definitely try out the QI process and photography critiques, I hadn't found that page yet. Lambda (talk) 18:29, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Glad you liked it. However, FPC is not meant to be a place to get advice and critique, you are just getting the good treatment because you are new. ;-) The rest of us are expected to present our very best pictures, all good and ready, for a thumbs up or down, just so you know for future nominations. --Cart (talk) 19:42, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Understood; I wasn't just coming here for critique, after comparing to the other featured pictures in the same section, I considered it higher technical quality (at least in sharpness and resolution) than the Jubilee and Munin photo mentioned above, while a more interesting angle and composition than some of the profile views, so I also did think it was worthy of nomination, but because I am new, made sure to mention that to get more detailed critique if not. I'm now learning more about what's being looked for, and I've learned that the critique page exists, so I'll be sure to check there in the future if I'm just looking for critique.

Oppose Per Charles --Commonists 18:56, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Brought shadows up and highlights down to address a few of the comments by Charlesjsharp. Sharpened slightly, and applied de-noise to reduce the high-ISO noise, which reduces the sharpness a bit. Could remove the de-noise to get some sharpness back. Lambda (talk) 19:14, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Good idea, but FPs of birds nowadays have individually sharp feathers. It's a very high bar to clear. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:43, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for the critique. I had nominated based on comparing with the existing images in its section in the FP gallery, and found it at least as sharp as Jubilee and Munin, which was featured despite concerns about its sharpness. That image is more entertaining, but I was thinking this one is a nice in between, of a more interesting visual perspective than the profiles of many of the other featured pictures in the gallery, while sharper and less visually cluttered than the Jubilee and Munin pic. However, I understand if in-between doesn't work well for FP; that it should either be more entertaining or visually interesting, or more sharp, to qualify. Is that how you're thinking about it? Lambda (talk) 21:37, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
- Just a note, looking at this image (adding to the above): the file is very small for its size. Just 1.5 mb. There's a lot of black and white here, so it wouldn't be very large, but 1.5 MB suggests compression. Are you working with a RAW file and processing that? — Rhododendrites talk | 04:23, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- I was shooting in JPEG at the highest quality, not RAW. I may have been able to eke a bit more out of the shadows if I were shooting in RAW. The file size dropped substantially after applying the denoise filter, not surprisingly; I'll bet it would go back up again if I dropped that filter. I'm processing using Darktable, which does non-destructive processing on the original JPEG, so I shouldn't be losing anything on each edit, but I am starting out with JPEG so I don't have quite as much headroom on dynamic range as I would if I were shooting RAW. Lambda (talk) 05:57, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Lambda, the picture you're citing was featured partly because of the humorous relationship between the two ravens, which this photo doesn't have. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:22, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, that's what I meant when saying "that image is more entertaining." I personally think this image is more visually interesting than some of the profile headshots which are featured, but it doesn't have quite the same humor value. Lambda (talk) 05:57, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- I withdraw my nomination With three oppose votes and no support, and not enough detail in the original to bring out the requested detail, I'm going to withdraw this. Lambda (talk) 05:57, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
