Oppose. Sorry, it's technically not great. The resolution is good but it needs to be significantly downsampled to avoid the strong chrominance noise. And the background is quite out of focus which I don't think works for this scene. A more shallow DoF might have actually worked better though, to emphasise the front of the train. Diliff (talk) 11:00, 31 July 2015 (UTC)- Oppose per Diliff. Nicest are the colours. --Tremonist (talk) 12:15, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose I could enjoy many types of noises and CAs. Thanks! --Laitche (talk) 18:15, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose And even considering the technical issues, it's not that great a picture. There's too much clutter, and the train, one of the world's fastest, could be parked for all we can tell. Daniel Case (talk) 21:49, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
Comment Have you ever been to Japan? It's not really possible to find this train without the "clutter", since the wires above and the signals on the ground are necessary for the train to function. As for the train being parked, my guess is that here it was slowly moving towards a station. It would take a very dedicated and skilled photographer to camp outside a high speed railway track and take the perfect panned shot during the one second that the train zips past at 300 km/h. dllu (t,c) 02:37, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
- Then how do you explain this featured picture of a Japanese train that doesn't seem to have those issues? And BTW, overhead lines and signals are hardly issues unique to the Japanese rail system. Daniel Case (talk) 03:12, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose I'm not sure how the Sony Alpha 77 can produce such poor quality images. At ISO 400 I would not expect so much noise... probably it was underexposed and then postprocessed with greatly increased saturation levels. This certainly isn't one of the finest works that Wikimedia Commons has to offer, since File:JRE-TEC-E5_omiya.JPG is of a slightly superior quality. dllu (t,c) 02:37, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
