Comment - I like the photo a lot, but there are two spots in the sky, visible at full size a bit below and to the left of the upper right corner. The lower spot that's also further left is more visible. While you're removing those, you could consider decreasing the noise in the sky and background, but neither of those things would cause me to oppose the photo, as the spots would if not remedied. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:57, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Sorry but the red channel is overexposed, on both the yellow and red blossoms. That’s why they look somewhat dull and blueish (on the red side) Split into RGB channels and look at the large white areas … Intense colours must be handled very carefully. --Kreuzschnabel09:43, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Professionally, I regularly have to take pictures of people wearing orange-coloured reflective clothes, keeping my exp correction about -1 or even lower to avoid a bright-yellow rendering ;-) --Kreuzschnabel08:23, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Much better now, especially on the yellow side. Oppose withdrawn. Leaves have been brightened up too much compared to 1st version IMHO but that’s a matter of taste. --Kreuzschnabel13:46, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The very central vanishing point looks not very complaisant to me. Too many thinks are disturbing my aesthetic feeling in this ordinary motiv. --Wladyslaw (talk) 15:54, 7 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Surprise, surprise an opposing vote from Wladyslaw. Ordinary motive: Please take a look into Tulip fields in Germany. At least for Germany tulip fields are not ordinary. I suggest to read Mante to learn something about composition. In this photo you have: Strong alignment lines, cold-warm-contrast (red, yellow from the tulips and the blue of the sky), even a form contrast if you take the tulips and the wind-wheels. --Tuxyso (talk) 17:14, 7 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Tuxyso, please stay polite and don't assume me personal reasons. Strictly central compositions works if we have very symmetric objects like castles or s.th. like that. For me this composition looks not very succeded. And tulip fields in Germany arn't so seldom by the way. I dislike this arrangement, the majority seems to like it, so no need for hostility. --Wladyslaw (talk) 20:33, 8 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Commentcrop of nominated image I am not quite sure the wide-angle was a wise decision here leaving the foreground with such a broad blossom-less strip in the center. A crop like this looks more impressive to me. But then, I know I am a long-focal photographer :-) --Kreuzschnabel07:05, 8 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose
Done Thanks Kreuzschnabel and Ikan Kekek for the hint. IMHO both issues were corrected now. Please take another look. Channel overexposure is indeed tricky with such motives. --Tuxyso (talk) 16:08, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
