- Question Can you sort over-exposed area beneath timing display? Also, the outline of the foreground trees appear unnaturally distinct; can you have a look? Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:45, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose Not done. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:52, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
- Info Yes, some areas are overexposed. This is probably unavoidable when a spotlight shines directly onto an ice channel and the very dark background of the image is also to be displayed well. In my opinion, this cannot be corrected in a sensible way. That's why the photo was (rightly so) rejected as a QI. However, here is FP, and for me, this photo has a massive wow factor. The interplay of light and shadow is what makes the photo special for me. I won't try to manipulate the photo in a big way, as I think that would also destroy the - for me - great mood. If others don't see this so-called wow effect, then that's the way it is. I at least plan to let this photo decorate my wall. ;-) Stepro (talk) 00:40, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose Blown highlights at the lower right corner -- Basile Morin (talk) 16:11, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose per above. -- Ivar (talk) 16:43, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
- Strong oppose Even beyond the abovementioned highlights blown so egregiously that they look painted illustrations, the composition of this image is so busy, chaotic and random to me as to exclude it from FP on those grounds alone. Daniel Case (talk) 02:42, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose Not enough wow to overcome the blown highlights, and I'm not sure I love the composition, though it definitely has some appealing elements. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:07, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
