•  Oppose Could be a useful VI (nominate to COM:VIC) but though I like the angle, this photo is not great in any way. Very noisy, light is nothing notable, partially blocked by foliage. FPC is for photos that are the greatest on the site. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:14, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

•  Comment Also, no metadata. You should mention which mobile phone (I suppose) you used. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:15, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

•  Oppose Poor image quality (things like sharpness, colours, low-noise, detail resolution) might be excused on an action or sports shot but never in architectural photography. I am aware we are talking about 38 megapixels here but even in 50 percent view (9.5 megapixels) the quality drawbacks are still visible. Sorry to contradict the cellphone ads but "megapixel number" does not correspond with "image quality". --Kreuzschnabel 05:15, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

  @Kreuzschnabel,@Ikan Kekek

  Thanks for your vote and honest opinions. Actually I am a novice in photography. The only device I use to take photos is a Redmi 10C smartphone which I bought with a Wikimedia scholarship. I tried to take some photos with that smartphone. This was one of the first clicks of my life. So I thought to nominate this for featured photos.

  As you mentioned some problems in this photo, can you recommend anything to improve the photo? Should I change the angle or camera settings or should I edit the photo to correct the brightness and color? or should I wait for the sun to set in the opposite of this building so that the details could be more visible? How can I improve the resolution?

  Thanks again. Wasiul Bahar (talk) 07:32, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

• I wouldn't be able to advise you on anything technical, but I suggest you go to COM:Photography critiques for such advice. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:50, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

•  Comment Can I suggest you nominate some images at QI and see how they get on. Images are best fully described and geocoded. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:43, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Ikan Kekek. -- Karelj (talk) 10:53, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
•  Oppose FPX template would have been the right choice here, the image is unfortunately far from QI --Poco a poco (talk) 09:23, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

• You could have chosen that. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:37, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

• Ikan Kekek: I thought that that template should be used just at the beginning of a nom. I've never used it anyhow and don't feel comfortable about when to use it but I've the impression thta it has been used in better images like this one. Poco a poco (talk) 19:50, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

• I've often seen it after several negative votes. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:23, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

•  Oppose No wow factor. --SHB2000 (talk) 02:29, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
•  Oppose per others. @Wasiul Bahar: this is how I got an FP out of the same idea, and why I would have liked to support yours. I offer it to you here as perhaps an inspiration as to how you could make this work. Daniel Case (talk) 02:35, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

  @Daniel Case Thanks for the words. In my case the building was in a busy area and other building was so close to other building that I wasn't able to capture the whole structure. When I capture this the sun was behind the building, so the lighting was not perfect. And I took this photo while walking from a busy crowd and I didn't be able to take perfect position. I will try again with this experience later.

  Thanks again for your advice. Wasiul Bahar (talk) 16:58, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

  @Daniel Case another thing. Can you check this images of some important building of Bangladesh. Is any of this is eligible for Fi, Vi or Qi?
