•  Comment Why HDR, where is focus ? --Mile (talk) 13:32, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

> Why HDR?

Adjusting the brightest part makes whole image too dark.

> where is focus?

The focus of three images is exactly the same position, around top of the center poles. --Laitche (talk) 13:46, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

•  Comment Well, I know this subject can be taken more detailed like this one, this time I was aiming common kingfisher and I knew will get bored while waiting a bird so I brought this subject therefore the camera setting was for the bird... I will try this subject with proper setting next time then  I withdraw my nomination, Thanks --Laitche (talk) 16:33, 30 September 2015 (UTC) Unwithdraw. --Laitche (talk) 22:45, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
  • I'm confused about your choices in general though. Why a 150-600mm with 1.4x at f/16? Diliff (talk) 18:07, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
    • Diliff, as I wrote above. I was aiming common kingfisher so I had to fix the camera location and lens setting, cause as soon as they come I could capture the bird (couldn't change the lens) and I was thinking about stacking too but I didn't want to stack with so many photos (wanted a few photos for stacking) that's why I chose f/16 however when I saw photos on my pc, I gave up HDR + stacking... Regards. PS. this shot was for sort of killing time :) --Laitche (talk) 19:20, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
•  Comment I don't think it is worth a so quick withdraw. You should let this nomination alive a little bit more...--Jebulon (talk) 21:55, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
  • OK Jebulon, no problem at all :) --Laitche (talk) 22:45, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
•  Support I think I can support this. It is strange, questionning, well executed and I like the visual effects, even with the background. I've no problem with the settings, even strange indeed, as the result works for me.--Jebulon (talk) 23:14, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
  • For the record, I don't have a problem with the settings really (they don't cause me to oppose), but they are far from optimal. f/16 results in a less-than-sharp image, and I don't think it was necessary to maintain depth of field across the subject (a guess). If anything, a more narrow DoF would assist the composition IMO because the background be be better separated from the subject. Anyway, yes I agree it's an interesting effect.

•  Oppose Arrangement is really bad, they do poles, tubes very different, by longer size - length, via diagonal. Also quality is not there. --Mile (talk) 19:01, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, quality is not there therefore I tried to withdraw... --Laitche (talk) 20:07, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

•  I withdraw my nomination after all... --Laitche (talk) 14:02, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
