• All by me. I withdrew my other FPC nom of this bridge because I took this one from a different spot three days later and feel the composition in this new nomination is much better. PumpkinSky talk 18:57, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Support -- I like this better. I was neutral on the previous one but this one captivates me more. The plant on the lower right bothers me a little but only because it subtracts from the tack sharpness on the rest of it. It doesn’t change my vote though. -- Sixflashphoto (talk) 19:53, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Comment Glad you like this one. I had to stand in the mud just several cm from the water to get this shot. The entire left side of the stream is useless as a spot to take a good photo of the bridge. PumpkinSky talk 21:58, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Oppose This is a better view of the bridge but the fountain is still ruining the composition IMO. Sorry. Light also a bit washed out in the upper part of the photo. Standing in a bit of mud still doesn't beat Jee who had leeches crawling on him during one shoot. --cart-Talk 08:17, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Comment As mentioned in the other one, I find the juxtaposition of the fountain and bridge fascinating. As for the leeches, YUCK. I'll probably never top that one. Glad we don't have them where I live. I've uploaded a version where I tried to work on the upper light part you mention. PumpkinSky talk 10:01, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

• We'll just have to agree to disagree on this then. :) Upper part looks ok though now. --cart-Talk 10:35, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Oppose Looks washed out compared to the alt. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:14, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose per KoH. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:51, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

Alternative version

Johann Jaritz has done an alternative processing. Right now I can't decide which one I like better. PumpkinSky talk 11:25, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Your's is too little processing and his is too much IMO. Some 50/50 version might be better. Please try too do as much of this editing before you make a nom. This is not the place for fixing photos. --cart-Talk 12:41, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

I did my processing. But we don't know what is or may be wrong until we get additional feedback. It's at QIC waiting for the bot and no one made suggestions there. PumpkinSky talk 12:52, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

It was not my intention to bring disconcertment to the FPC. I was simply curious, if the photo could be edited in a way that it possibly meets the taste of W.carter and others. Another version was uploaded. -- Johann Jaritz (talk) 13:52, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Support -- With this modified version of his own modification, I'm now really having trouble deciding which is better, so I'm supporting both versions. PumpkinSky talk 13:56, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Question - I definitely prefer this version, but is that light really how it looked, or is the other one more true to life? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:04, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Comment Ikan Kekek, the original one, the version I did is closer. The scene, especially the bridge, varies quite a bit with changes in sunlight because of the the openings in the trees and such. For reference you may want to look at File:Moon Bridge and Fountain, Friendship Pond 2 NBG LR.jpg (the FPC nom I withdrew), and File:Moon Bridge and Fountain, Friendship Pond 3 NBG LR.jpg. The overall average of how the bridge generally looks is probably somewhere photo 2 and photo 3. PumpkinSky talk 22:25, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

• Thanks. So here's my dilemma: I would support this version and oppose the other, but I'm not sure if that makes sense if the other version is the truer one. In that case, maybe it's not justifiable to support this version. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:48, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

• Ikan Kekek I can certainly understand your position. Trying to be neutral, I looked again at the other photos I made of this bridge and the coloring in this alt nom version is consistent with how the bridge can with certain lighting. PumpkinSky talk 15:34, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Support per remarks above, with reservations but surely liking this version. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:51, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Support Great colors. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:14, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

* Support I agree with KoH and Mr. Pumpkin. HalfGig talk 23:39, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

•  Info Sorry, post-closing detected invalid vote per this discussion. Outcome will be altered to not featured. --cart-Talk 13:52, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

•  Neutral per cart. Daniel Case (talk) 06:20, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose I'm afraid per previous nom I'm not finding wow here to take it to FP. The fountain just looks a bit odd, with not being able to see the base and perhaps exposure is slightly too long this time so water is less clear and more blurred. The leaves/bark also appear quite soft compared to previous nomination, perhaps too much NR or not focused so well or light not so good. -- Colin (talk) 16:45, 23 August 2017 (UTC)

Confirmed results:

Result: 6 support, 1 oppose, 1 neutral → not featured. /--cart-Talk 13:52, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
