Also these two images has been uploaded from this Nomad Horse Riding festival (the left image is also nice). Ggia (talk) 19:08, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

•  Info created by ggia - uploaded by ggia - nominated by ggia -- Ggia (talk) 19:08, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
•  Support The image is noisy due to the 1600 ASA - I choose this ASA because 105m lens manual focus lens (with D700 Nikon body) was used with close diaphragm 16 and aperture speed 1/2000. Tibet is not the easiest place to travel and get images like that, I hope you enjoy the content (as I do) and keep an exception to the rules due to the noise. If you want to attack oppose due noise.. you are also welcome ;-). -- Ggia (talk) 19:08, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
•  Support Good work --Katarighe (Talk) 20:11, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
•  Comment very nice composition, good light, but intensive noise as you know. ISO 1600 and f/16 - why not f/8 and ISO 400 or something like that? --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 20:13, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
•  Info my lens is a very old 105m f/2.5 manual focus.. and the focusing screen in D700 is not the same like the manual film camera FM2.. so with D700 it is hard to make fast focus.. so I choose strong depth of field (in case it not focused precise to get focus due to depth of field) and high speed.. The weather was also a little bit cloudy. IMO noise in an image like that (with people) is not so bad aesthetically.. if you look to my blog [1] my black & whit photos are full of grain (due to the film and 400asa). But if you oppose I can understand the reason. Also in the above image I didn't try any de-noising algorithm.. (probably a denoise algorithm can reduce some noise.. but I don't have experience doing de-noising.. I just know how to remove some noise from a blue sky using a mask).

 Comment your account it too young, meaning that it is older than 10 days but you have less than 50 edits.. thanks for your support vote but it is not valid. but if you know how we can reduce noise in that image it will nice to show me how to do that. Ggia (talk) 23:04, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

How is it too young? Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 10:15, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

There is a rule in FPC, that editors with more 50 edits and more than 10 days account age can vote. It is a rule in order to avoid canvassing in FPC votes. You can see your contribution here Special:Contributions/Papa_Lima_Whiskey_2, and you have around 21 edits. Make some more contributions in commons.. and you will be able to vote here. ;) Ggia (talk) 10:35, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

I know all about that, and your statement that the account is too young is incorrect - please check again! Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 12:34, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
