Info Photographic example of texture and volume as a result of directional lighting. All by -- Tomascastelazo (talk) 20:13, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
Support -- Tomascastelazo (talk) 20:13, 17 July 2015 (UTC)- Support but maybe better if colorful. 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 21:04, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- Support I like the study of these forms and lighting, which is focused by the use of b&w to remove elements that aren't important (colour). We should have more photos that concentrate on aspects of things, rather than trying to photograph the whole, in full detail or colour. -- Colin (talk) 12:49, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

- Support some creativity at least.--Mile (talk) 17:23, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
- Support Agree with Colin. --Code (talk) 17:43, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
Comment Good example of my basic disagreement with the author : maybe a good picture for a photo magazine, but not for "Commons", for many reasons. Maybe the pedestal of the columns should be horizontal ?(perspective). I don't oppose because it is here a matter of taste, and life must be full (and is rich) of differences.--Jebulon (talk) 07:43, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
Oppose The idea is good, but the focus should be on the foreground element. Regards, Yann (talk) 09:15, 20 July 2015 (UTC)- Support The educational merit of this image lies not in the subject itself, but in the way it demonstrates how soft but directional light models structured surfaces. I disagree with Yann concerning the focus: imho focusing on the middle pillar was the right choice, though a higher f-number for more DOF might have been better. On top of all that, I find it aesthetically pleasing enough to be more than just a QI/VI. --El Grafo (talk) 09:34, 20 July 2015 (UTC) BTW: Michael Freeman's "Capturing Light", a book entirely dedicated to different lighting situations and how to use them in photography and my personal recommendation for anyone doing outdoor photography, uses very similar images.
- Support per above. @Jebulon: Why shouldn't Commons try to be as inclusive as reasonably possible regarding its formats, motives, topics, approaches, and techniques? --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 14:37, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
- Support Traditional and classic style, nice. --Laitche (talk) 17:30, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
