Promotion Crop out the stairs and the grass patch and you have my vote. A more radical crop up to the sculpture's base gives interesting results but may not be everyone's cup of tea. Also needs slight curves adjustment, a bit too dark ATM --Vladanr 19:59, 19 August 2009 (UTC) Comment Thank you. Having a descriptive purpose, I would not like to cut off from image an element like the stairs, however it's only a particular. I'll upload another version following your suggestions and re-nominate. --Marcok 18:01, 22 August 2009 (UTC) Info Re-uploaded with balanced levels and more sharp. --Marcok 18:19, 22 August 2009 (UTC) Comment Ok, I've looked at it on my new 22" screen. The JPG artifacting is more pronounced than it seemed to me before, sharpen filter made it worse. I've tried to edit it myself and I can improve sharpness somewhat, but there's far too much loss of detail on the lawns.

Decline Would work better with deep DOF to illustrate mimicry or a shallow DOF to expose the insect itself (foreground texture now distracting, background unimportant) --Vladanr 09:02, 17 August 2009 (UTC) I also think that the actual DOF is too shallow if you want to demonstrate camouflage, and even the animal itself is not sharp all over, thus - even although I acknowledge that it would have been difficult to use a smaller aperture under these light conditions w/o a tripod - I think this isn't really enough for QI. -- H005 17:22, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

There is nothing else, just a huge lawn. The other shot offers some more context, and has a slightly different angle.

Decline Why on earth did you shoot this at ISO 1000? Detail lost throughout the photo while lighting and motion of subject do not suggest need for high ISO. --Ferengi 16:02, 29 July 2009 (UTC) ISO 1000 was chosen by my Nikon D80 running in automatic mode. This is a telephoto (135 mm focal length) of shady rock face. So there was probably not enough light. --Jarekt 18:56, 29 July 2009 (UTC) Comment You shot at f10/1250. If you went down to ISO 200 you could have easily reached the same exposure index with an f10/320 or an f8/500. Just don't trust auto ISO, it tends to betray you when it matters. --Ferengi 20:02, 29 July 2009 (UTC) Comment I agree, Auto-ISO completely ruined this otherwise good shot. --Afrank99 18:44, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Please consider: If you oppose to images with this comparatively low amount of noise (for a compact digital camera) you will exclude anyone from QI who does not own a DSLR. Should this really be the goal? Yes, there is some noise, but it is not visible at normal magnification, only in poster size, and QI is not FP or de:WP:KEB -- smial (talk) 01:13, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
I don't care what type of equipment the photographer used. If it's a compact camera, I'm fine. If it's noisy, I'm not. There is no point in saying "it's good for a p&s cam". Would you promote this one when it would have been taken with a Hasselblad H3D? How much noise do you tolerate in mobile phone shots? Different judgement for different cameras? This one's no QI for me, sorry. (BTW, noise reduction made it worse now IMHO) --Afrank99 (talk) 09:26, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
Comment Again: The photo does NOT show too much noise, regardless of camera type. But you will see: Any compact digital camera will have the same oder higher noise level, that's all. We should not set the limits too high, too many good photographers would be segregated. Pictures of this quality are fine to be watched at the computer screen, and are also fine to be printed. Noise ist often overrated, and the comparison with high end MF- or teletubby-cams is not appropriate. However, I agree: Noise reduction made it worse. I'll try another version tomorrow, ok? -- Smial 21:53, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Comment Romanceor's picture show sometimes little technical weaknesses, but they tell a story and are very good concerning atmosphere and composition, I think the noise is acceptable here because of the other qualities. It's an available light picture and a flash would have reduced the noise but destroyed the atmosphere. --Mbdortmund 14:39, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
Support Atmosphere well captured, available light snap shots cannot always be technically perfect. -- Smial 21:11, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
Oppose All this needs is proper editing, it's a great shot. The problem is that it's not only got noise (and color noise), it's got jpeg artifacts in the noise. If you want to upload the original, I can fix it for you. Then I'd even support it as FP. --Calibas 01:15, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
Comment I'm afraid he's right about composition. Your main subjects are marginalized in favor of an uninteresting sailboat mast. 2/3 of the picture are completely unnecessary.--Vladanr10:09, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It was the idea to show sailboats and the city and not just close up of sea lions.Sailboats and the city make the image unusual--Two+two=412:12, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I understand, but it's my opinion that you're not achieving your goal with this image as neither the lions nor the city capture the eye when looking at the photo. I will not oppose if someone supports though.--Vladan Radmilović (talk) 13:12, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Although I too find it interesting to see the proximity of the sea lions' and homo sapiens sapiens' habitats, I do not think this huge amount of sky and mast is of any help in visualizing this. Currently a viewer who is just eyeballing the image will probably not even notice the sea lions but just a sailboat at a landing stage and a house. -- H00513:41, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support Nice colors. Yann 09:47, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Neutral I agree with Yann, however the bright, unfocused center of the flower is distracting me from the subject which is at an odd angle. --Relic38 03:13, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Review Not sharp enough, needs id's. --kallerna 09:24, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
I think it's correct --ComputerHotline 07:41, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
Can't see much of an issue with sharpness - all that remains is that someone will find out the exact species. -- H005 21:21, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
Comment I think it's a Common Darter (Sympetrum striolatum), though it needs to be verified by someone whose entomological skills are better than mine. Óðinn (talk) 05:25, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
Comment I have a species determination scheme for the sympetrum species found in Europe. However, with only this image and the file below only I cannot determine the species for sure. The black legs (I am not 100% sure only from this image that the legs are totally black) and the black markings on the thorax tell us that it can be S. sanguienum or S. depressiusculum. To separate these two species we would need a look of the mating organ seen from the side, or maybe a better view of the wings could tell them apart. The book I used was Trollsländor i Europa by Åke Sandhall and the S. Depressisculum has a somewhat flatter body than S. sanguienum -- Korall (talk) 17:20, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

* Oppose Great shot but resolution too low. -Jcart1534 01:43, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
Comment yes I'm sorry I have this one with high resolution of course, how do it now ? a new nomination ? --Butterfly voyages 22:25, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
Info1 I have changed with a high resolution version--Butterfly voyages 04:43, 26 August 2009 (UTC).
Info2 This version with less sky.--Butterfly voyages 15:05, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Comment Great one! And, for sure, it's much better with such a resolution. However, i'm a bit confused with that crop. There is maybe too much sky on the picture... isn't it? --Kirua 07:31, 26 August 2009 (UTC).
Agreed. Now with higher res should be able to crop down the sky a bit. --Jcart1534 10:14, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Support I agree it would work better with different composition /perspective, perhaps showing more of the interesting looking rock in the foreground. However, resolution, sharpness, light and EV is why I support. --Vladanr 14:09, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Support. I can support now. --Jcart1534 21:56, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Support Good composition for me --George Chernilevsky 13:39, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Comment Just to clarify - without DOF or significant light intensity difference between the foreground and background there is too much clashing going on where the light post and the building intersect IMO. --Vladanr 13:51, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Comment I thought the contrast and distortion would look interesting, maybe a matter of taste, isn't it? --Mbdortmund 22:29, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Support In fact it is good. --Marcok 23:31, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Nomination Black kitten at full sunshine over a white wall -- Alvesgaspar 23:26, 23 August 2009 (UTC
Decline
Oppose Sorry, but most of the image is blurry, and the background is rather poor. Nice image though. Juliancolton 04:41, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
Another opinion is welcome: this is a portrait and the background is, like in a studio shot, irrelevant Alvesgaspar 10:10, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
Why are the overexposed parts of the wall gray and not white? (P.S.: I largely agree with your studio shot opinion) --Dschwen 15:22, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
Oppose Per Juliancolton. --kallerna 12:40, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Withdrawn I guess this is a panorama because on top, on the left and on the right there are lines in the black that separates the really dark grey from the totally black. The detail of the building is very nice and the compisition is nice, but in order to get rid of the irregularities in the black area the new crop would probably look really unbalanced. Sorry. It seems like there was a lot of work done in order to create this image. Korall21:58, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply] You are right, I didn't notice that. I think I can fix that, but not tonight anymore, maybe tomorrow or Sunday. -- H00522:09, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply] I have uploaded an improved version, can someone please re-review? -- H005 22:31, 22 August 2009 (UTC)Comment On one of my computers it looks OK, on the other it still lokks kind of strange. Im sorry but I do not have the guts to promote a panorama that fills out with a lot of black just for compsition when the standard procedure would have been cropping away the edges until you you fill up the whole image. --Korall12:18, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral I like this picture but I still see artifacts in the black background. I guess this could be easily corrected. Kirua09:00, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. This is way too dark and now contains a solid black frame, with a sharp boundary to a dark gray artifacted region. --Dschwen15:19, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Dschwen, thanks for the comment, I can follow your argument about the boundary etc., but what exatly do you consider "way too dark"? The current light is very close to what you see if you are physically there: Just black with those blue lights and the white office light in some windows. I have taken different exposure times, those with a longer exposure time really are too far from reality, this is not Las Vegas. Look at the histogram, the DHL sign, the lit offices - a longer exposure would certainly not be an improvement, and HDRI also is of no help here, I tried it. -- H00517:33, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Then apparently it is a bad time to take such a photo. I wont go out and take a picture of our University quad at night either because it would be mosltly black (like those joke postcards). There are rectangular regions on the left, right, and top that are just #000000, with sharp straight boundaries to the rest of the image. Looks like you padded the photo with black areas. --Dschwen16:02, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Probably a matter of taste, but I deliberately chose a clear new moon night because I find that dark surrounding particularly appealing, nothing that distracts from the glim of the building. As for the other issues, I have well understood them and will see what I can do about it. -- H00517:42, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I have looked at this image on 2 different computers and I am sorry but I think I have to oppose this one. Not because it is a night shot but because of the the black border that looks strange to me. -Korall19:37, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I withdraw my nomination I see the issue with the black border, but currently have no time to address it, so I'm withdrawing it for the time being and will renominate after the problem has been resolved. -- H00519:57, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

For the sharpness, I think I can't have better from this file. Thanks ; --Kirua 20:23, 21 August 2009 (UTC) Support OK now, sharpness of people is no really an issue here. --H005 21:01, 21 August 2009 (UTC) Oppose, barely. I agree with everything said so far, and I do like the image, but the composition could be better. There is not much beach at all in this beach picture. --Relic38 03:25, 23 August 2009 (UTC) Support Sharpness is borderline case, but composition and atmosphere are excellent. -- MJJR 08:11, 24 August 2009 (UTC) Support Meets the QI criteria in any points. --High Contrast 18:41, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
