Tampa, Florida
  •  Info Tampa, Florida. View to downtown during the morning (subtract 4 hours from Exif time). Compare with this picture, taken just after sunrise and already featured. I believe the present version also deserves the star. Alvesgaspar (talk) 17:54, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Based on a similar rationale as above. It's good to disclose the existence of the other FP, but I think that here the wow is missing a bit. Quality is of course great, but without the evening light, the towers are quite plain. Reminds me a bit of my own experience with this and that. --DXR (talk) 21:35, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support In contrast to the view expressed by DXR, I think that the lighting (not during dawn/dusk) is a positive aspect of this picture and doesn't detract from the "wow factor". The evening lighting is slightly distracting from the subject--the Tampa skyline. This image doesn't add a false yellowish tone to the buildings like the sunset photo does (compare the white buildings in this photo vs that appear light brown/tan in the sunset one). There's also less glare off the buildings that are more reflective. It does have a "wow factor" if you look at it from the perspective of focusing on the subject—the Tampa skyline—in that it is a great quality image which manages to show most of the subject in an accurate way (no false color from dawn/dusk). The only possible improvement would be mid-day lighting in summer to eliminate the shadows. I don't support de-listing the sunset image, but if others find it necessary to only feature one, this is the one to feature (just a suggestion, but again I don't support doing that). -- AHeneen (talk) 05:08, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Isn't there a slight blue or green cast? Check WB, please. I also think it is a bit plain, not because of the light, but because of such a clear sky. --Kadellar (talk) 17:39, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • I made several experiences because I also had the feeling that the picture was a bit greenish. In the end the adjustements were minimal as I realized that many of the buildings had in fact a green cast. The obvious exception is the white parking below Sun Trust.

  •  Comment Geocoding is missing and EXIF data got lost during Stings edit. Will support if this is fixed. --El Grafo (talk) 12:30, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • I uploaded a corrected version with the restaured exif data that was embedded in the original file (Photoshop has a bug when “save for the Web”). I made also some little additional color and curves corrections. Sting (talk) 18:26, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
