  •  Weak oppose Sorry for being the party pooper again, but long focal length or not, that looks pretty noisy for a 5DS R at 400 ISO. It's mostly luminance noise, so one might forgive it, but in combination with the over-all softness and remnants of CA (I blame the 2x TC), I'm less than wowed by the quality. It's not bad and actually looks quite OK at screen size, it's just not great. And the same is true for the content: It's not bad at all, but I wouldn't call it outstanding considering what else we've got. --El Grafo (talk) 08:07, 23 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose - This would have to work for me as an abstract composition of lines and textures; I analyse it almost as if I were looking at an abstract painting that I want to have a good linear arabesque, though the textures help and make it a bit of a bas relief. It's a great idea, but the lines are not interesting enough to me for me to support. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:30, 25 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose It's a beautiful view but I have a few issues with it. a) The resolution isn't very high for a 2019 FP landscape; b) I find the plants in the foreground a bit distracting; c) Are these colours really natural?

  • ✘[No] Biplab Anand, this is not how this should be done. Please just rename the original file, add the geocode there (by copying the code from one to the other) and simply upload a new version (!) with higher resolution and maybe ping affected voters about the change. No need for a new file or an alternative candidate here.

  • The files in a set are all displayed in the normal galleries. The set designation is just for the nomination, after that all the files included are treated as normal FPs. Example: The two images in this set are stored/displayed at Commons:Featured pictures/Objects. My guess it that you will not be able to automate this since the process is far to complicated. The set nom is placed in the log and chronological, not visible in Commons:Featured pictures, list and then the files are extracted manually to be labled with the assessment and placed in the right gallery. --Cart (talk) 09:29, 29 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    @W.carter: , any example where the set had images from different categories ?? Eatcha (talk) 16:39, 29 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Not that I can think of. The idea with a set is that the images belong together and that usually means that they belong in the same category. --Cart (talk) 16:46, 29 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Yes, I think any set that required different categories would fail the set criteria. I think that if images in a set could stand alone, treat them as normal FPs, but in some cases special handling would be required for the gallery. For instance, it's something like a 5 x 8 mosaic scan of a very large painting, it would be better to just have a downsampled version of the full painting in the gallery. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:41, 31 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose Low resolution -- Piotr Bart (talk) 18:28, 31 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]


 Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: Too far below the 2Mpx minimum size and there are no strong mitigating reasons. Please read the rules at COM:FPC more carefully before the next nomination. --Cart (talk) 17:44, 31 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply] 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.
  •  Comment Cart, just to be correct and you likely know this already: when there are "strong mitigating reasons" the 2 MP minimum can be ignored so it should be mentioned in a FPX reason that the nom fails both aspects. – Lucas 20:35, 31 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Yes I know, but since you had already mentioned it above, I didn't think there was any reason to bring it up again. To keep things formal per your recommendation, I've added it now. It is now mentioned three times in the nom; a bit of overkill IMO. If you think a text in an FPX template is inadequate, please feel free to substitute it with a text of your own. Improving how this forum works is never wrong. --Cart (talk) 21:10, 31 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Thanks Benh. That's what I thought when I nominated it for FP. Others may of course disagree, but I don't think lens flare should always be dismissed as a technical failing. Certainly it should usually be corrected, but in my view it's possible to use lens flare as a creative effect. Cmao20 (talk) 18:24, 27 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
  1. The different strokes for the different kinds of border are missing from the legend (they are explained in File:Colombia Mapa Oficial.svg: strong solid = international border, dot-dash = disputed border, dashed = claimed ...). Either add them to the legend or simplify to a single style.
  2. The file description page of File:Colombia Mapa Oficial.svg is much clearer when it comes to listing the sources. Information about where the elevation and bathymetry data comes from appears to be missing?
  3. Which map projection/CRS was used here? Please at least mention this in the file description, ideally with an EPSG code or some other kind of unambiguious identifier.
  4. There are some avoidable collisions of labels (for example, LLANURA DEL PACÍFICO collides with Cerro Calima and many other peaks of the CORDILLERA OCCIDENTAL). With careful manual placement, most of these collisions should be resolvable. Yes, that's tedious work, but imho this kind of attention to detail is needed for a map that is considered "outstandingly good".
  5. The label Páramo de Sonsón @ 6°N, 75.5°W appears to be partially covered by the 3000-4000m terrain layer.
Otherwise I'd say this is really close to what I'd expect to see in a printed atlas! --El Grafo (talk) 09:40, 30 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  needs some work per El Grafo and here are my additional pain points:
  1. The use of blurred shadows below the text is IMHO ugly and makes it harder to read especially in smaller font sizes. Text shadows belong on birthday cards only. edit: seems to be an artifact of Firefox rendering
  2. Often the text is colored in such a way to blend in with the background too much, e.g. blue text on water and brown text on high elevations colored in brown
  3. I don't know the unit msnm, I would only use SI unit meter here and put the rest as plain text.
  4. Most of the text is serif which is IMHO not really needed here (helping the eye to stay on the line) and sans serif fits better for graphics.
  5. In general there are too many different fonts used where one would be enough and make distinctions with bolding and italics and size of course.
  6. Typographic nitpick: the author information on the bottom right uses straigh ASCII quote marks ("...") instead of real quotes (“...”) or similar depending on the local conventions.
  7. The legend on the lower left covers up a lot of text along the shore.
  8. On many places text is placed over rivers and lakes that make it hard to read the text because of the many interfering lines.
  9. Some lines around the Mar Caribe area end in nothingness and one dash-dotted line goes off alignment with the shape it belongs to. – Lucas 14:07, 30 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • I agree with most of Lucas' points, but regarding the first 3 points:
  1. I don't see any shadows around text, neither when I view the original SVG as rendered by Firefox nor in the png previews rendered by mediawiki.
  2. I'll have to disagree with that one. That's pretty much exactly how it is done nall the time for this kind of map in professional map making.
  3. msnm is the Spanish abbreviation for mean sea level - given that the rest of the legend is in Spanish as well I think that's OK
4. & 5. are to some degree a matter of taste and style. I'm not a cartographer myself, but I've seen plenty of printed maps that purposefully mix serif and sans serif fonts to make certain groups of labels easier to distinguish.
New point: RÍO META is labeled twice at ca. 6°N, 69°W. --El Grafo (talk) 08:59, 31 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The criticisms about technical quality are valid, not that it's bad but that it isn't quite up to the level of some FP church interiors. That said, I downsampled it to 2200px across - which is 7 mpx and still meets FP size requirements - and it looks perfectly sharp and without any visible noise.

  •  Oppose per others.--Vulphere 08:04, 4 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose I tried this myself and the switch from step 2 to 3 is done by pulling the loose end in such a way that it is taught and the loop flips over to the other side. Per El Grafo this is a confusing move and the center image could very well be the starting point (this is how I've always tied this knot), removing the top row. With this arrangement of 5 it's also not 100 % clear what the order is supposed to be for people of different cultures viewing the image. Most importantly, this knot has two variants depending on the loose end being inside the main loop at the end (more dangerous to get opened over time as the end can easily get pushed in by the object the rope is tied to) or outside (safer and recommended version). An image showing the dangerous version should acknowledge this visually and/or in the description. – LucasT 10:43, 4 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose The perspective correction by software or the lens so verticals stay vertical leads to unnatural shapes and overal feeling of being stretched which is not pleasant to look at. This is a fundamental problem of rendering the world as we see it onto a flat sensor plane so I would have chosen to stand somewhere more in front. The left crop is definitely too tight and the cut in half car on the bottom is not ideal either. – Lucas 09:33, 30 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Lucas I appreciate your feedback and don't necessarily disagree about the foreground. I would happily offer an alternative crop (it would have to be an alternative version, since I don't think we should mess with an original image that is fairly widely used and is FP on another project) but it doesn't look like that would make the difference between passing and failing, and I don't think I will complicate the nomination with an alternative at this stage.

SHORT DESCRIPTION
  •  CommentTo me it looks a bit too artificial. --Granada (talk) 16:57, 29 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Weak support Beautiful, but it is indeed a little small. This camera produces 10 megapixel images, so I suspect it has been downsampled. Could we perhaps have a slightly larger version? Cmao20 (talk) 19:14, 29 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Swift11, we are still short of the full 10 MP the camera is capable of with no explanation from you. Cmao20, I'm concerned you are happy being spoonfed 6 MP out of 10 MP when it's not answered whether it's a crop. – Lucas 20:03, 30 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Lucas, I chose to take it on faith that it was a crop. In a situation where I asked for more resolution and someone provided it, I would generally assume on good faith they had uploaded the full file rather than taken the time to create a larger downsample. Of course you may be right that it's still downsampled, but I didn't feel like pressing the issue any further given that this size is adequate for FP for me. I know that we have a rule that prohibits downsampling, but I feel that the FP rules are somewhat contradictory in that sense - they simultaneously penalise for downsizing images and dictate that 'Images should not have distracting amount of noise when viewed in full size', which seems an invite for pixel-peepers and probably encourages people to downsize so as to avoid criticism. In addition, I'd point out that Diliff's church interiors - which I nominate a lot of - are nearly all downsampled to improve quality at full-res, so FP isn't really consistent about this. But this isn't the place for this discussion. For me, 6 MP is adequate for a rather nice landscape like this, but you are of course welcome to disagree.

  •  Support Quality is not perfect - the detail on the tree at the right looks a little bit blocky, which looks like a fault with the processing to me (perhaps too much noise reduction smoothing out detail?) But downsize to 3500px across and the problem is no longer noticeable. As for the composition, I find it really beautiful. Cmao20 (talk) 19:55, 30 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose It's a nice view but the duck barely having entered the frame, the treetop in front, the treetops in the far distance and house facade all being cut off makes me feel too uneasy looking at this.

  • Italian Prime Minister and later president Antonio Segni with Konrad Adenauer, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, in Cadenabbia, northern Italy, Adenauer's 'summer residence'. The image was taken by the photographer Giuseppe Moro on August 22, 1959. The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung recently acquired thousands of images by Giuseppe Moro, an outstanding, now largely forgotten photojournalist who extensively documented Adenauer's repeated stays on the western shore of Lake Como.

Moro wasn't just one of many photographers during Adenauer's frequent visits to his beloved Villa La Collina, btw., in fact he was granted special access on many occassions.

Tugboat Boss on a foggy night
  • Category: Commons:Featured pictures/Objects/Vehicles/Water transport#Boats
  •  Info Usually night photos of boats show the whole boat, but this close-up the tugboat makes me think of some huge benevolent entity keeping watch over the fjord and harbor, even on those very cold nights between Christmas and New Year's Eve.

  •  Support -- Cart (talk) 17:58, 1 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose. I like that you are trying to make more unconventional nominations. What it comes down to here is the low exposure on most of the boat (the cabin interior is nice) so not a lot is well visible. The hazy air makes the background less attractive. There's some serious posterization as well, see note. – LucasT 20:24, 1 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • To me, the composition works because of the fog and the darkness/(selected exposure). It separates the boat nicely from the background. Without it there would be no story, no tension in the photo. It would be just another flat harbor image. --Cart (talk) 11:42, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • I understand your intent but don't share that feeling. I do feel the tension, from these reddish posterization artifacts in the sky ;). The area I marked in the image is just the most visible part, in reality the whole sky has some posterization. – LucasT 12:01, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Some of the posterization removed. I guess there are things you have to live with when you take pictures under difficult light and weather conditions. For totally perfect photos, we should all stay indoors and only do studio shots. --Cart (talk) 12:38, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose - This photo does have something extra and might look great against a bright white wall, but I have to judge the experience of looking at it on a computer screen, and I just don't think this amount of total blackness works for me, because it is flat and gives the eye no lines, curves or shapes to move around. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:25, 3 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The composition unfortunately doesn't really wow me as the most colorful subjects are lined up around center height. The flower on the left being cut is not ideal either. The narrow aperture makes the background too busy and disctracts from the front row of flowers. With the slower shutter speed there's motion blur so nothing is quite as sharp is it could be, but maybe some light sharpening can improve this. – LucasT 16:54, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose f/20 on DX just isn't going to give a sharp image. The lighting is also not used effectively IMO; the scene is slightly backlit, which creates a luminescent effect on the trees. Normally that would be a good thing, but as the trees are so far on the edges it distracts from the central message. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:44, 3 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

It lacks a decisive composition and good background separation and the one diagonal blade of grass distracts from the subject.

Minor Chromatic abberations (CA) on the bridge supports. If this was downscaled (and maybe otherwise altered), the original photo would be much more appreciated to judge the quality more fairly and accurately. Maybe the original is much better than what this version makes it look like. J_budissin, are you the photographer? – LucasT 14:23, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Well, i myself saw the same -technological- lack u did, but i never than less, nominated it. I guess, we can't alter photos just because camera technology improves every year. People just have to take/get used to the fact that all photos can't be hd and that early 00' photos are as much appreciated. Anyway, that's my view. Tnx for the vote tho :) --Ivan VA (talk) 15:08, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • If you know the photo was taken in the early 2000s, then that info belongs on the file page and in your comment on the top of this nomination. – LucasT 16:44, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • I'm sorry, i've expressed myself badly. I meant the camera was probably from the early 00's, not the photo. --Ivan VA (talk) 18:05, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose The picture is very beautiful, and you clearly have a good eye visually for what makes an FP. However, as per Lucas, the size and quality is not that good for a landscape. Cmao20 (talk) 18:37, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • @Cmao20: Would it make any difference if i'd change category/nominate it for an other category (where resolution doesn't matter that much)? --Ivan VA (talk) 19:08, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Unfortunately I don't think it really would. The picture is still the same picture, whatever category you nominate it for. Whether you put it in the landscape category or not, it still is a landscape, and for a picture that is relatively easy to take (unlike, for example, a macro shot that might be more technically challenging), I don't think the resolution is good enough.

  •  Oppose There is a lot of potential here with the shape of the door and the curvature of the building, but a centered head-on capture in soft light doesn't make the best use of it and I find it slightly nauseating to look at.

But even downscaled to my screen resolution of 1920x1281 (ca. 2.5mpx) the quality is lacking quite obviously. It's starting to look pretty good around 1000x667 (0.6mpx). That might still be enough for a half-page print in NatGeo, but the big double-page spread is probably off the table.

  • There's no strict rule I'm aware of, but generally here at Commons we prefer the highest resolution available for multiple reasons and being able to review images fairly and accurately is an additional one. In the case of FP nomination downscaling can be understood as deceiving the reviewers and you don't do a good job of removing that feeling. Even here you increased the size step by step in the file history. – LucasT 10:55, 4 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Support - Not a critical comment here, Swift11, but it's important for you to ping everyone who's voted or commented on this photo, now that you've provided the full-resolution version of it. To be sure, it's not nearly as large as many of the nominees in recent years, but I think it's big enough if that's all you've got (and if it's not, cough up the full size, but you said this was the "maximum", so I assume it is). I didn't like the smaller version, which seemed to have visible posterization lines around the sun. These are absent in this version.

  • Visit the mountains in the morning or in the evening after a thunderstorm, and you will be surprised that there are saturated warm and saturated cold colors. -- Swift11 09:37, 5 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Weak oppose per Cart. I'm aware that there can be strong colors in the sky around the sun given the right combination of recent weather, humidity and the angle of the sun. I have experienced that myself, and photographed it—however, it was under unusual conditions, during a very late white-night sunset in the Canadian far north, helped by a little smoke in the air, and when I processed those photos I may well have yielded to the temptation to lay it on a bit.

    I am not sure the same thing hasn't happened here, especially given that this sun does not seem so close to the horizon. It's a beautiful scene, to be sure, but it looks like the matte background you'd see behind Kirk, Spock, McCoy and the redshirts as they beam down. Or on the cover of the paperback James Blish adaptation. Daniel Case (talk) 21:21, 5 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Comment - Somewhere, it should be noted that all the requested changes have been made. It's a very nice map, but there's one further needed change: According to the locator map at the lower right, a large part of the Malay Peninsula is in this map, but actually, it isn't. Therefore, the locator map needs to be edited accordingly. Once that's done, I will support.

Any so-called "non-indigenous" language should probably be included on the map if it's a map of current language usage, but I can clearly see that the areas in question are in the interior, and therefore must be sparsely inhabited, with presumably an aboriginal population of some kind if there are people there. So wouldn't "sparsely inhabited" be a sufficient description? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:12, 10 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Terima kasih.  Support - As I said above, this is a nice map. I find it attractive (I like the waves in the water), it's clear and can serve as a good example for similar maps that cover other parts of the world. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:43, 11 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
  •  Weak support Strangely, the camouflage argument has actually swayed me in the other direction, I think it's worth featuring as an illustration of how the crab's camouflage works in practice. I remain bothered by the focus, but I think I'm guilty of judging you Poco based on a higher standard because of the high quality of your usual output. I still don't think this is one of your best images, but I think I probably would have given a qualified support if it had been someone other than you. As an aside, is it perhaps worth adding to the caption that this is a juvenile of the species (as the gallery caption for the photo in the Wikipedia article says)?

A Hi-Res image of the Mandelbrot set
As an aside, I wrote a program to draw the set in groovy colours about 35 years ago. To speed things up I calculated the outline of a square and if that was all black, didn't bother with the middle. Then divided the square into four and repeated. Still took hours but I got some lovely pictures, and this was the coolest thing in maths at the time. I bet there are lot more clever ways of doing this faster today with the latest graphics cards. -- Colin (talk) 20:19, 12 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose I could live with the large shadows since they accentuate the sun, but having so little of the boat itself visible is more of a detriment as there is the strong interaction with the tractor. Also several distracting elements (tire, some attachment block) further obscure. I don't like the hunched over poses of the workers. Ultimately I think this image doesn't showcase a special enough lighting situation involving the sun as I would expect in this category, I would have placed it under Objects/Vehicles/Land_vehicles#Other land vehicles instead, for the tractor. A different category would for sure change my review, but I can't guarantee support. – Lucas 08:33, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • I am certainly open to suggestions about the category. In this case it's really difficult. It's in a series about the boat, but there is so little "boat" in this photo. 'Other land vehicles' is another option, but then again there are better photos of this truck. So I went with the most dominating thing in the photo: the Sun and the shadows it creates (take a look at other photos in the 'Sun' category). Perhaps a category "Shadows" would be most appropriate, but it doesn't exist (should we create it or is Natural phenomena/Other enough?). This is one of the strange things about FPC, that an interesting photo can be dismissed because it doesn't fit perfectly into a FP category. Looking at the 'Natural phenomena' category, there are several photos that have ended up there for this reason. --Cart (talk) 08:54, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • You can always ask at COM:CRIT before nominating here, that is the place for such discussions. For knowing what some of the reviewer comments mean, please look at COM:PT which is also a page where you can get a lot of tips about more advanced photography. A good place to start with your photos is also COM:QIC. At QIC, you will get comments about and learn the technical requirements for photos here. Once you get a hang of that you can move on to FPC where the photos are also reviewed for artistic impression or what we for short call "wow". --Cart (talk) 10:26, 12 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This is what we're supposed to see: "Socioenvironmental catastrophe caused by the dam rupturing of the mining company Vale in Brumadinho (MG)". However, it just looks like a strip mine with some dirty water.

Claiming you will stay away for a few months is (a) not credible right now and (b) in no way at all an apology. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:40, 8 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

OK, it looks blown to me, but as I pretty clearly indicated, it's a minor point. I won't be consulting photo editing programs for that kind of thing; I just use my eyes. And OK, grain.

There are 4 different horizontal planes - the rocks and nearest boat, the house and the other boat, the far bank and the hill in the far right corner, and then the clouds. And then there is the strong deep curve of the lake and the bit of land on the right that enables the eyes to come back into the foreground.

  • The thing is also that this is in a fjord with huge cliffs in the east and west (think Death Star trench), so the sun only shines on this little place when the sunlight can enter the fjord from the south.

Aerial photographs of Beijing Daxing International Airport
@Ikan Kekek: It is processed by original author in order to give highlight to the subject (airport terminal building) itself. The photo was taken in real color, and then processed into grey-scale in most area except the terminal building. David290 (talk) 06:42, 10 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Donald John Trump's official portrait
  •  Comment Poco, your oppose is just as invalid as one without any reason as you are not critiquing the photo itself. An {{Abstain}} is the better option for you and anyone with a similar view. – Lucas 18:30, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Ok, not problem, in that case: the facial expression is unpleasant --Poco2 19:23, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose The picture frame is encroaching on him too closely and the decorative multi-color string on the flag is too distracting. Also something feels weird about how his chest gets more in shadow/darker further down. Size is quite small and noise levels too high for a studio shot. – Lucas 18:37, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose -- Distorted perspective, as indicated by the picture frame to the right of the photographer. Fluffy89502 ~ talk^ 18:40, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Weak support Sharp and overall a good portrait, but the resolution isn't great. I think it clears the bar overall, but it might do better at FP on Wikipedia where encyclopaedic value is prized somewhat more than on Commons. Cmao20 (talk) 19:40, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose As presidential portraits go, this is rather bleak and uninteresting. Ok, we were spoiled with good photos during the Obama administration, but still... It lacks depth and the background is distracting (he is standing too close to the wall), including a cord that makes him look like a jumping jack. --Cart (talk) 20:23, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose He looks strange - this is not his face as we usually see it. --Uoaei1 (talk) 08:14, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose Agreed with Uoaei1, this is probably how Trump wants to be seen (ie encclopedic value at most), not how he is most of the time. -- KennyOMG (talk) 08:26, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment Distracting background with the picture frame and the ugly wall paper. The overall image seems to be a bit underexposed and oversharpened which brings the noise to a visible and disturbing level. --Granada (talk) 08:39, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose At first sight it's just a pretty boring portrait that just doesn't manage to stick out among the gazillions of pictures of US-government people in front of US flags we have here at commons. That alone would be reason to oppose. If you actually start to analyze it … well, when it was released PetaPixel and Jared "Fro" Polin (among others) already did that job so let's just say they did not think it was a "good" portrait. --El Grafo (talk) 08:51, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose Neither a great quality nor representative. Sorry --A.Savin 10:19, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose per Granada and El Grafo. The photographer, Shealah Craighead, is a professional, so I assume she knows how to do a high-quality portrait. This one gives the impression he just said, "Look, I'll just stand here. You can take this dumb "official portrait" you keep going on about right now... I don't care if you don't have any of your "lighting kit" with you. My guys take great photos with just their cell phones. Your camera must be really dumb if it needs lighting kit to take a good photo." -- Colin (talk) 13:56, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Hmm... I'm not so sure, although I could well imagine him saying something like that. She may be working as a photographer, but professional (I mean as in "highly skilled")?? Have you looked at her other work? It's all bad angles, strange crops and photos in existing light. Looks like the best US photographers are democrats. ;-) --Cart (talk) 16:37, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • „working as a photographer, but professional?“: isn't that the definition of professional? – Lucas 17:29, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • To my knowledge there can be a difference in the English language between "working as" and "being a pro" in everyday parlance. It is similar to the ranking system we have here on Commons. On your user page you have the userbox stating "This user is able to take professional quality photographs." In that sense the word "professional" is used for quality level rather than occupation. "Being a pro" can simply mean that s(he) knows what s(he) is doing. --Cart (talk) 18:11, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Yes there are many meanings to "professional", though with photography I think it is mainly used to distinguish from "amateur" in the sense of making money, earning a living at it. I would expect a professional to be able to reliably deliver acceptable quality to time/budget, and that the more you pay the higher the expectations. Another mark of a professional is to take and absorb a whole lot of grief from the client, and to deliver what the client wants, rather than to their own taste. Given the number of "great, highly talented" people he's hired and then fired, she must be doing something right to still have a job. -- Colin (talk) 19:13, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • I have amended my comment to clarify what I mean. I think most people got it but precise meaning is obviously imperative here in such an important discussion. --Cart (talk) 19:28, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Someone once said "Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog. You understand it better but the frog dies in the process." I got your point and the word-play. -- Colin (talk) 20:42, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Comment What you say, pardon me, does not make sense. How can the tourists, several hundred meters away, be out of focus and the background be in focus with an aperture of f/11? --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 18:05, 13 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment Yes, right, this shouldn't be the cause but still there is a clear difference in sharpness. My oppose doesn't hinge on that, the other points are more important to me. – LucasT 18:36, 13 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment I don't think Lucas is imagining this, I can see it too. I think you have a heat haze area hanging over the nearer sunlit rocks on the left. It will do very strange things with your photos. Take a look at how distorted/blurry the houses on the right side in this photo are, while this photo taken from the same point of a location over four times as far away, but over the cooler sea, is not very affected. That day, the photos taken towards the sea were acceptable but I had to throw away all the photos taken inland of the town. I had gone there to make a panorama of the old town in Lysekil (to the right of the houses in the first photo and further inland), but they turned out beyond bad. --Cart (talk) 16:36, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Well, no, I was commenting on this photo (providing link for clarity). Perhaps you somehow misunderstood what I wrote. Lucas mentioned a "slightly blurry foreground with the tourists" and I provided a possible explanation for it using my own photos/experience as examples. Nature can play tricks on us even if we have extraordinary cameras. Anyway, I will not be offended by you striking my comment since it is your nomination. --Cart (talk) 17:47, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

But ultimately, this photo is so picturesque, and the lines in it really work and I think it's acceptable to tolerate that little piece of something at the near left corner. However, this is the kind of panorama in which I think "pixel-peeping" is legitimate, and I do see some clear red CA and halos in the near left quadrant. I don't feel I should support this photo until it's fixed.

(Before anyone asks, I’m aware there’s plenty of examples on Commons where two similar pictures have both been made FP, but I don’t think that’s the way it should work. FP should be about rewarding the best output in a given scope, and this image isn’t different enough from the other one, and is worse in some ways as Lucas points out) Cmao20 (talk) 22:48, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Poco, I already did some vignetting adjustment in my edit, I think the gradient is due to natural light since it stayed after the correction and it follows the way the shadow of the tree points. I see such phenomena a lot in my photos taken on clear days over water. Let's leave it as it is now, I think it is acceptable. We should be as respectful as possible to the author.

  •  Comment - It's spectacular, but I don't understand why we are not asking for it to be de-noised before we support a feature. It's already problematic at 250% and slightly at 200% of my 13-inch laptop screen. And in this case, I don't think the size of the photo is an argument for a feature, because it looks bad at full size and we probably shouldn't be looking at it at that size. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:09, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment Ikan, FYI, zoom levels above 100 % usually denote zooming in further than the 1:1 pixel level, so picture pixels would actually get upscaled on your monitor. I'm sure you meant the opposite, being zoomed in a moderate amount, still above pixel level, approx. 50 % zoom or less. – LucasT 07:33, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Lucas, you didn't read my remark carefully. I'm talking about percentages of the size of my 13-inch laptop screen, not percentages of the huge size of the image. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:40, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Ikan, when you get noise at high ISO levels, de-noising will often ruin the photo. The de-noising programs can only merge and extrapolate the "missing" information so far. The result is often a smooth and plastic-looking photo since you lose all sharp edges and in most places the "noise grains" will bunch together and form artifacts instead. A photo like this will lose some of its crispness. Even a slight noise reduction would make it look over-processed or like taken with a cheap mobile. --Cart (talk) 08:43, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • That's a pity. Do you think there could have been a way to get a little more sharpness and less noise when the photo was taken? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:47, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • You could probably have taken it with that time and a lower ISO and added the light in post-processing; that would have made it less noisy but instead you would have lost bright colors and details in the ice. Or you could have sacrificed the DOF and made only the nearest ice sharp; that way you could do a less noisy photo. In some cases, everything is a compromise. --Cart (talk) 09:21, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Ikan and others, this is a version of the photo downsized to "normal"/acceptable size with a bit of noise reduction (you can do NR on a high ISO photo if you downsize it first). It is nicer to look at when opening at full size, BUT in the process a lot of information is now lost. It has gone from 19.05 MB to 4.08 MB. Isn't it better to have the full original version? --Cart (talk) 12:08, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • The original is much nicer to look at, the world has plenty of mushy noise-reduced images already. – Lucas 12:38, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Neutral Nice photo but somewhat overcooked. (1) Noise is not the issue here. Noise is the most overrated problem here on FPC ever. That said, I think at 38mm focal length an aperture of f/5.6 would have done it, too. Then it would have been possible to lower the ISO to 200 which would have reduced the noise significantly. However, it is always easy to critize such a photo sitting at home in front of your computer. On location you sometimes don't have the time to try different settings or you don't immediately see a flaw that can be seen on a computer screen. Additionally EXIF says that the exposure has been increased somewhat (+0.57) in postprocessing which may explain the amount of noise since the D800 IMO would normally not create so much noise at only ISO 800. (2) EXIF also says that the author increased clarity, vibrance and saturation which was for my taste somewhat too much, that's why I vote neutral here. --Code (talk) 07:04, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Excavation lake at the Main near Limbach
  • Category: Commons:Featured pictures/Places
  •  Info created & uploaded by User:Ermell - nominated by User:Ikan Kekek -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:30, 20 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Support - I think this nomination is a real stretch for FPC, because a lot of regulars here tend to object to photos that don't contain the entirety of a lake. Painters routinely make these kinds of crops, because the result is a wonderfully dynamic sky rhymed by a peaceful sandy and grassy near bank, interacting with the trees on the far side, with the water and reflections in the lake in between. Of course Ermell can speak for himself, but I think the fact that the clouds, even more than the lake, are cropped adds tension and dynamism that fits the type of weather Ermell was experiencing and wants us to experience at one remove. (Tangentially, I had a dilemma in terms of categories, because an excavation lake is not natural, but it sure looks natural, so I couldn't think of a better category. Mixed?) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:30, 20 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yuri Gagarin, first human in space
Perhaps he's calling attention to some clichéd aspect of the photograph . Daniel Case (talk) 16:10, 18 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose Per Cart--Boothsift 17:51, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment - Yeah, I like his happy, youthful appearance, though I agree with Cart, especially on the composition. But how historically important is this particular portrait? It seems to be the best one we've got on Commons, and he's obviously an exceedingly important historical figure. We do have this reproduction of a painting, too, but it's below the normal minimum size for FP. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:49, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • I would say it is unique and unmatched in EV. Gagarin's face was scarred when he fell jumping off a balcony while escaping from his wife who had caught him cheating in September 1961. In case you are not aware, he became the first human in space in April 1961. So this is the only photo likely to be available of how he looked pre-incident and best representation of his appearance while he was on his historic first mission to space. It may also be the best/only clear portrait of him we have in general because he died in 1968. I do not know how to clean up the scratches around his chin. If any one is good at that I would welcome it. Coffeeandcrumbs (talk) 20:42, 15 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose per Lucasbosch, as this particular image doesn't appear to be that significant (he was the subject of lots of pictures, and this one doesn't stand out), and it's got the problems mentioned above. And I agree on en:WP:FP: "unmatched in EV" doesn't matter here as much as there.

  •  Comment - You have a good point. Your photo is better. Why don't you nominate it? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:41, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • I for myself have a rather low tolerance for overdone saturation, normally I take the green of the grass and/or the blue of the sky as reference and reduce the level. But whereas it is easy to reduce the whole saturation or chosen channels at any time afterwards, you cannot add much more light to your picture when you have taken it in weak light, and the beauty of Heligoland cliffs (including the colours) is only seen entirely when it is sufficiently lit. Anyone who juxtapose both picture see the difference immediately. Your picture may be correctly saturated, but the colours that I would like to see are definitely lost there. --A.Savin 13:35, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Solitary sandpiper in Yukon.
  • Cmao20: Thanks. This is the original size, uncropped. I have one more cropped so the bird is like 40 % of the frame but I decided to use this one on Wiki precisely because of the habitat/environment around and keep the informative value. Otherwise, I like the crop better, esthetically. -- Jakub Fryš (talk) 22:19, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Support Great capture of a bird in its natural environment. The sandpiper is quite small but the resolution and the quality are very good. I'd probably prefer to crop a bit from the bottom and even more from the top to place the bird in the middle - but it's good as it is anyway :) --Podzemnik (talk) 20:03, 16 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose - I agree that there's too much sky for my taste, but I also think there's too much water. This is indeed a peaceful scene, but to my eyes, the image more or less just sits there, with the exception of the obvious broadening from left to right.

  •  Oppose This badly needs a bit of rework to be good. With the black levels my monitor is able to differentiate, there is a lot of noise, unsigthly sensor patterns, false colors, posterization, and a good amount of dust and dirt, all visible in the shadows literally everwhere in the image, without any further enhancement by me and without cranking up monitor brightness. If your monitor can't show it, I suggest opening it in an image editor and rasing the shadows. I'm offering to do the processing to make this clean, but maybe Alexander Klepnev wants to do it himself. Regarding its resolution, viewing this at 100 % does not show detail but rather very mushy pixels that would get opposed immediately in other pictures, I would downscale at least by half and slightly sharpen to make it less bloated. – Lucas 18:38, 20 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Support and a very Happy Midsommarafton (today) from Sweden to you! (FYI, summer solstice is bigger than Christmas up here.) I'm so glad I could inspire someone to have a go at this. Since you have so much nicer landscape down there, your photo is way better than mine. :) I actually did manage to get both celestial bodies in a single frame on the new moon right after that winter solstice, but the moon was so faint then you can't find it without an image note. --Cart (talk) 07:24, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Haha happy Midsommarafton to you too :) Yes, you definitely inspired me! I have to admit that it was tricky to get them both together. I figured that the best chance I have was on the beach where the sun rises up first and where I had enough free space to span 120 degrees panorama. Also, I wanted the landscape to be interesting but not much so the viewer wouldn't focus on it too much. By the way, Sweden has a very lovely landscape, too. I've been there twice. I always admired your wilderness. --Podzemnik (talk) 07:38, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Provisional oppose due to licensing issue I think that the image is great, but I have a concern. The file page says "Overwriting my file is prohibited. If a different version is created, it must be uploaded under use of the template derivative under another name and linked here. The Category Images by Hockei has to be added in the other version." I am not aware of a Commons policy that allows an author to place a restriction on the file like this. The author seems to be licensing this image with a variation of the Creative Commons license, and as far as I know custom licenses such as this are not allowed on Commons. Please consider revising the license of the file. --Pine (✉) 21:13, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
 Comment Not at all what you say. I just want anybody not to overwrite my file. I have my reason for that. Look at here. This user Amara overwrote my file with a thumbnail again and again. But my work is my work. Anybody can use my picture according the cc by-sa **. Therefore what you write is completely nonsense. Please don't bring me in a discussion for that. I have no time the next few weeks. Just think twice before you write such stupid stuff. --Hockei (talk) 21:45, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Hockei and King of Hearts: thanks for the comments. I think that a creator requesting that others not overwrite the file is okay, and I think that a creator requesting that others contact the creator first before overwriting a file is okay. However, unless I have overlooked something in COM:OVERWRITE, I do not believe that a creator is permitted on Commons to make a permanent and complete prohibition against someone else from overwriting a file. My comment here is not intended to support edit wars regarding versions of a file. If Hockei changes the comment on the file page from "Overwriting my file is prohibited." to "Please do not overwrite this file without consulting me first, and if you want to edit the file then I request that you upload the derivative as a separate file.", I would be okay with that request, and I hope that Hockei will agree to this softer wording. Thank you. --Pine (✉) 00:53, 24 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment And what has this to do with the FPC-nomination? You demand compliance with rules from others and don't stick to it yourself. Find a valid reason for your oppose or cancel it. Everything else will be clarified later at another place. --Hockei (talk) 15:11, 24 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Hockei: I agree with Pine that you should consider a softer wording than "prohibited" simply to create a more collegial atmosphere. That said, I don't think this restriction is meant to apply to the license and hence cannot render it invalid (i.e. I don't think Hockei intends to hold those overwriting his file on Commons in violation of the license, merely in violation of COM:OVERWRITE guidelines). And to be technical about it, is overwriting others' files really not prohibited? Per IAR there is no dividing line between makruh and haram, only a sliding scale of undesirable actions. If someone persisted in overwriting other people's files after being repeatedly asked not to, a block could very well be in order. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:46, 24 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Stained-glass window of the Saint Julian church in Cassagnes-Bégonhès, Aveyron, France

The first of each pair are smaller images but they are hugely superior. In second of each pair, the red is burnt out to orange. The two shades of blue background are separated by extreme contrast such that the lighter shade is white. The delicate facial features are lost in a heavy handed rendering that looks jaundiced instead of skintone. Joseph's tunic changes from fawn brown to gold. The subtle grey geometric artwork in the bottom half of the second pair is rendered with a green tint, and the yellow hoops burnt out to white in places. All the images in the set by Tournasol7 have the same extreme processing that has exaggerated the saturation, contrast and completely blown the bright colours and tones, while darkening any shades to total black. I would really appreciate if those who supported could take a second look, compare against our best, consider the high technical standard required, our requirement for the subject to have wow. If you still think it is an FP, would dearly like to know why. -- Colin (talk) 21:11, 25 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

A denied nom can also be removed from the list after 24 h, but as there is interest to continue voting I will remove my FPD after the deadline of the FPX has passed and I closed that other nom for good. – Lucas 07:24, 19 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Lucas, please remove it before 13:00UTC otherwise the bot will close it. (24 hours limit at 08:28, 19 June 2019 (UTC)) -- Eatcha (talk) 07:33, 19 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Weak support Normally I'd agree that it's a little overdone, and it does look like some filter was applied, but in this case it offsets the effects of the cloudy sky and dull light. Daniel Case (talk) 22:20, 20 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment - I'm seeing the halos on the upper reaches of the lighthouse. User:ValentinManus, if you would eliminate the halos effectively, I would support this nomination because the form works for me and the low angle is interesting, making me feel like I'm on the water. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:17, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose Per above--Boothsift 21:54, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Support I think this is actually quite good, and certainly rather beautiful, despite the slight halos. I don’t see any great issue with over processed colours. Cmao20 (talk) 22:35, 21 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
@Eatcha: A bit of an overstatement . You can count the fly here as practically dead as it is being eaten. This beetle appears to be mounted. File:Chicoreus orchidiflorus 01.JPG also depicts a dead animal. Sorry for ruining the fun --Boothsift 05:51, 23 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose A significant event, but the technical shortcomings of the photo are too many. There is heavy chromatic aberration all over the photo, it needs perspective correction, it is over-saturated/(or vibrance), there is chromatic noise in most places and somehow detail in the photo is not what you'd expect from such a camera. Please look at a few tips on post-processing on COM:PT. --Cart (talk) 14:51, 19 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose The thing about having the subject leaning forward a bit and including some of the body was a photo style of the era. It was intended to make the photo dynamic and make the subject look thoughtful, eager and attentive. With the crop and rotation, it now looks like a laidback modern passport photo. --Cart (talk) 04:26, 29 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
