  •  Comment I apologize, but it turns out, the photo that resulted from the crop I approve of is too noisy and unsharp to be one of the best on the site. I could not have anticipated that, but I can't overlook it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:11, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Painted storks (Mycteria leucocephala) roost with mammals
  •  Question Is this a photomotage? In my opinion the shadows of the branches and of the bear and the ape don't fit together (the sun comes from left, as the branch behind the ape shows, but the ape itself is equal lighted. The belly should be in shadow when lit from the same direction as the branch it is perched on), also there is a difference in sharpness of the branches and the mammals. The light halo around the branches and the storks is missing around the mammals, the type of contour is different, less sharp. --Llez (talk) 11:20, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thank you very much for your explanantions, Adam! This photo could even be taken as a good example for the benefits and drawbacks you mention – I imagine it would have been difficult to capture her natural, spontaneous smile with the old, slower photographic technique, but on the other hand the photographer was not able to frame and focus as meticulously as before. --Aristeas (talk) 10:22, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    At the risk of being a killjoy: I wouldn't be surprised if that was just a regular modern kit they have ready for visitors bumping their head. I've been in one of those museum pieces (this one's in Hamburg). While they try to make it as safe as possible (e.g. by squeezing in a semi-proper staircase), there are still plenty of opportunities to hurt yourself if you're not careful. Anyway, I love how the thumbnail makes it look quite roomy but as soon as you use the proper panorama viewer it feels authentically tight.  Support. El Grafo (talk) 08:41, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Variability in Polititapes aureus[edit]

Visit the nomination page

  • The page contains 65 times the word "variété" (variety, in French) and says twelve forms belong to the subgenus Polititapes ("douze formes appartiennent au sous-genre Polititapes").
How many varieties are presented in your set, two? Beudanti and mabillei, so why 3x2 pictures? And where is it written that these two varieties are the only 2 possible? (cf guidelines "unless they share a defining characteristic and represent all possible examples of that)". -- Basile Morin (talk) 06:09, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment The text you cited above and you linked to was published in 1939! This more than 80 years old work corresponds in no way to the current state of research. The taxonomy, the species concept and the definition of varieties is completely different today than it was then. BTW "twelve forms belong to the subgenus Polititapes" you say, but this set shows not Polititapes (the whole genus) but only the species Polititapes aureus! --Llez (talk) 06:32, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The page does not talk (only) about "synonyms", that's what I meant with this quote. By the way, almost all the synonyms mentioned in the Wikipedia page are unaccepted. Moreover, the question of the diversity, concerning the varieties, remains. Would a set nomination of 50 races (like varieties) of dogs be acceptable here? 🤔 No. Thus, it is the same here, in my opinion. Imagine a set showing a picture of dog captioned "Dog", and then two pictures called "Dog Labrador Retriever" and "Dog Poodle". Weird, right? -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:05, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia refers to WoRMS, and WoRMS only works at the species level. "Acceptet" in WoRMS and Wikipedia means that it is an accepted species. Approved subspecies and varieties are therefore always listed with "not accepted" (as species!), but it does not mean, they are not accepted as subspecies or variety. --Llez (talk) 08:48, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • We agree the two "var." of your set, mabillei and beudanti, are not valid species, right? And they certainly don't form a whole group. Thus, your set is not valid according to our guidelines (see COM:FPC).
Please have a look at this set nomination. My comment may "speak" to you 😆
The major problem here is the potential diversity of "varieties" / races. Like dogs or cats -- Basile Morin (talk) 09:29, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Both have the same sharpness. Which background you prefer is a matter of taste - the green or the grey sky with thorns. There is no legitimate reason for A.Savin to oppose. Perhaps he might like to vote on this current FP which has garnered significant support. Just voting on nominations by users you dislike is unwarranted aggression. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:07, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Both have not the same sharpness. Besides both links for direct comparison, you also can see here what would my picture look like if just upscaled to the same width as yours... As you may see, then, all the feathers, the eye, the beak etc. (surprisingly?) look very similar, but OK, just keep calling white black and black white, it's hopeless. --A.Savin 13:08, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment Of course, anyone is free to reject such a photo because of the light effects, this is completely valid, such effects are definitely a matter of taste. Nevertheless I want to make a technical note: In such an extreme contre-jour situation, where the sun is somewhere mid in the image, it is really difficult to avoid lens flares completely. In fact, I’m rather surprised that there aren’t more flares in this photo – many lenses would produce a whole series of light spots and so-called ‘ghosts’ across the image in this situation. The light effect visible in this photo also seems to consist less of lens flares and more of diffraction spikes, an effect that is often even brought about on purpose. Overall, I would call the shot remarkably clean (considering the extreme backlight, see above). --Aristeas (talk) 10:22, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment I appreciate your remarks. However, I'm not sure about the composition, either. It's a pretty scene, but the big lamppost closest to the viewer calls too much attention to itself and causes a tension that doesn't fit in with the rest of the scene. I also find the long sunray distracting because of its direction in the context of the rest of the picture. In terms of movies and TV shows, I do find it strange that lens flares are often deliberately used. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:38, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Thank you. (And I agree with you completely regarding the overuse of lens flares etc. in movies and TV: IMHO most times that’s just kitsch ;–).) --Aristeas (talk) 07:27, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The lens is a macro prime and is tack sharp with focus on the eyes of the primate. The aperture was the widest at f/2.8 as it was a cloudy day which I admit is not the optimal aperture for this shot but raising the ISO much (this was ISO 400) was not an option as my DSLR is quite outdated and introduced unacceptable noise. Regarding the venue being captive, here's the description from the wikipedia page - "Nandankanan Zoological Park is a 437-hectare zoo and botanical garden in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India". So there is a zoo but this animal is not part of the zoo enclosure. My previous comment should have been worded better. Anyways, I feel this photo should be considered keeping these points in view- Subhrajyoti07 talk 10:25, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    •  Comment "clipping" does not necessarily mean "RGB at 100%". There is considerable loss of detail in the bright parts visible, even if the numeric brightness might still be below 100% due to subsequent normalisation – there are large "mash" areas of nearly one colour with not a single hair to be seen. --Kreuzschnabel 13:05, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose The blown white areas in the fur make it insupportable for me, even if it was crisp sharp (which it isn’t). Is this a JPG out of camera, and if so, is the raw file still with us? I might like to have a try with RawTherapee :) --Kreuzschnabel 12:49, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Indeed. I'm a Russian, I'm against war and I'm feeling with the civilians of Ukraine, and as you may guess now I'm feeling heavily betrayed by my country. Because of that, probably I'm not going to go there again (and submit more quality pictures of Russia for Commons) for decades now, maybe even for the rest of my life. But I'm strictly against refusal of any Russian stuff by other users, who maybe do not support this shit either, yet do not have the possibility to escape timely (OK we don't know about this one user... however note that their websites/Facebook/VK have not been updated since 2019 or so, that means we really cannot say anything here...). That said I can fully understand if some Ukrainians now say "no Tchaikovsky/Tolstoy/Chekhov... anymore" or so, but someone like Charlesjsharp (from England, a wealthy European country far from Ukraine + Russia, far from the war, far from Putin etc.pp..) is not in the position IMHO... Meanwhile the offensive and slanderous comments by him are not surprising to me, however this here is really outrageous. When will the community finally recognize that all the "featured/quality/valued" contents by this user is actually a "tainted gift" for Commons and the whole Wiki movement? Where is Jimbo's famous statement that "toxic users" belong banned no matter the past contributions?... Regards --A.Savin 21:37, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support at 2.6 cm (full-page size is bigger than that), these photos are sharp, but these photos are not sharp at 30% of full size. I know this is an odd question, but are they unnecessarily large? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:36, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment I always make full-size photos of each of the 5 views with a 6000x4000 px Camera. Mounted together they reach the given size. I don't like to downsize them afterwards even if there is a risk of some blurring. Everyone who wants to can downsize the photos as he likes to get more sharpness (As far as I know Wikimedians don't like downsized photos very much). The size of the picture also depends on the form of the valve, this one is photographed in the same way, but the form of the valve is quite different and so consequently also the format of the picture. --Llez (talk) 07:58, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Sorry Llez, but I don't think these are among the finest shell photos. Perhaps these have proved especially hard to get all-in-focus but there's just too much of each shell that is out of focus and the in-focus bits are not sharp. I appreciate you don't like to downsize but at the same time, there is no point in offering more resolution than your lens captured. I have looked at a lot of your other high-resolution shell images, and they appear to have more detail. Further, compared to the other detailed and even colourful shells in our gallery, these are really very boring and plain. Not all subjects invoke wow, and I think, of all your shells, this one is absent wow. -- Colin (talk) 10:10, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You might find Commons:Photography terms#Perspective correction helpful. You are going to get diverging verticals if you point the camera "down" rather than level (just as people on the ground get converging verticals if they point their camera "up" to get the top of a church spire in the frame). But of course if you fly your drone high and point it level, you may get 50% sky. The correction that Lightroom has applied here doesn't fully "fix" the verticals, but doing so is likely to bring its own problems, as one ends up with the opposite problems of the viewpoint definitely being "downwards" and the proportions of buildings looking odd. As Benh says, some people looking at such images will find the effect of sloping verticals to be odd, and a compromise partial correction may help. There may be some advise on the web wrt drone photography about finding the balance between horizontal and downwards shots. -- Colin (talk) 11:17, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Ikan Kekek and many others: I agree with your assessment, and would add that looking to the category this shot is probably the one with the overall best quality/crop/detail (and on top of a very signifcant species), but please, let me give you some feedback about all you cannot see here (behind the scene). Stingrays or lionfishes are rare. The set nom of the lionfishes deals with the first lionfish I saw in my life after about 70 dives (I saw a few more afterwards in the same area, that's true). These 2 species are from dangerous to very dangerous. If you get stung by one of these guys your vacation is over, so you shouldn't get too close (getting things focused with e.g. a 100 mm lens uderwater can be really challenging, so I usually use my 15-35 mm, which means I have to get closer) and you'll not see them often. On the other side, clams don't raally move (if you get very close, they close, but that's it) and are no risk (as long as you don't introduce your hand in the clam :) ) so, as long as you hold the camera firmly and focus properly you'll get a sharp shot. Furthermore you find giant clams everywhere in the Red Sea, indeed I'll upload a few more examples to prove that. I just aim to say here, that those things are not visible at once but do play a very important role form the photographer point of view. --Poco a poco (talk) 16:40, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested improvements made
*:I have tried to fix the issues to the best of my abilities, though admittedly, I am a rookie. Does it look fine now? If someone else can make the required fixes in a better way, I recommend reverting my changes and doing so. UnpetitproleX (talk) 17:56, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • A wonderful view, but a difficult photograph ;–). Looking at the photo I got the impression that the view is tilted; we need a small perspective correction, but what is more important is the rotation. This has the disadvantage that we must crop the photo after rotation. Here is my attempt; I am not really satisified with it, but maybe it is better. What do you think? --Aristeas (talk) 09:07, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Aristeas: Your version is better than mine! The CA removal is better and the perspective correction is also better. The crop was something that was bothering me in my version too, but in any case the crop is only slight, and does not alter the image in any substantial way at all. Could you upload your version to the original image page itself? Thanks for your help! UnpetitproleX (talk) 10:00, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • @UnpetitproleX: Thank you for your approval ;–). I did not want to override the original image (by uploading my version to the original image page) because the image has been changed substantially (different crop) and because the original image is already a QI. But there is another solution: There are no votes yet (besides your own) for this nomination, therefore I have just exchanged the nominated version by the edited version and renamed the nomination page accordingly. So this nomination is now about the improved version. Best, --Aristeas (talk) 10:51, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Aristeas: Thanks for the move, I had already overridden the original and added you as additional author, since I thought the crop though different, was only slight, and the image is widely used accross wikis so the improved version made sense. As for the QI, the improvements you made were also suggested at the nomination there, especially for a future FP nomination. Apologies if I shouldn't have. This works as well. --UnpetitproleX (talk) 11:31, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bluespotted ribbontail ray (Taeniura lymma), Temple, Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt
  •  Support I'm not sure why you think this. The fact that this photo shows the ray's camouflage is one of the main features here, so expecting it to stand out from the background is not really fair. As for 'very bad quality'...the eye is tack-sharp even at full (33 megapixel) resolution. Cmao20 (talk) 13:55, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you, Cmao20, I'm also curious and would really like to know how Karelj would have done it better. Do you have a suggestion? This species is a night hunter and therefore hide during the day in holes and/or camouflage under the sand, like you can see here. Poco a poco (talk) 13:59, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • OK, this is excelent example of camouflage and very good from this point. But the nomination of it as FP means, that this image will appear one day on main page of Commons. And try to imagine, what will be the reaction of Commons main page visitor on this image: Oh, this is terrible ...., do they really have nothing better to show people around? So I think, that it very good Quality image and I believe, it will be shown in many (all) wikipedia articles about Bluespotted ribbontail ray or Camouflage. And that is my reason for opposose voice in this FP nomination. -- Karelj (talk) 14:39, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • It doesn't have to appear on the main page. We are promoting considerably more than 365 pictures a year so it's impossible for all FPs to appear on the main page. I respect your reasoning if you just don't think camouflage photos have sufficient wow-factor for FP, but accusing the photo of being 'very bad quality' was just untrue.

  •  Comment I've been staring at this for a while now, feeling that something was off about the contrast. I was not sure what it was, and I still am not 100% certain. Looking at the original helped a bit though. The original is a very high contrast image, where large parts of the subject are quite dark due to the direction of the sun relative to the ship. In the retouched version, the shadows have been brightened a bit, making things a bit more visible. But somehow, my brain refuses to find this realistic or credible, possibly because there is still so much evidence for hard shadows around. Given that brightening the shadows did not actually reveal anything new in the image, I'd very much prefer the unaltered original (minus the dust spots). However, I'd still not vote for it, because in my opinion, it is not a particularly stunning photograph to start with. --El Grafo (talk) 12:49, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Taking the photo in its totality, I don't see anyplace to crop that would improve the picture. If you crop the bottom closer, which was the main thing I was considering, you'd delete the branch on the lower left that helps the composition. And there isn't really that much room on the right. I suppose you could crop in slightly on the right, but it hardly seems necessary. The composition is very harmonious to me. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:20, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rhododendrites, I think you're right. After looking at the image again, I'd not crop it either. I know how difficult it is to photograph small birds, so this is quite impressive the way it is! --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 14:55, 21 April 2022 (UTC) [reply]

Domestic white goat among the brushwood

A particularly expressive goat, at least to me looking at it is a good mood. It seems to say, "What are you looking at? Have you ever seen a goat?"

Panorama of the city of Srinagar from Nigeen Lake in Jammu and Kashmir, India
  • Whatever it is, this building is just blurry and dark. There's no metadata on the file page, but I assume the depth of field was too narrow. With a tripod, making this part sharp is easy -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:23, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Since the long ratio is being talked about, I must admit that I did think about cropping the image but decided against it because it beautifully captures the magic of Srinagar, be it the different profiles of the anchored Houseboats, the purely navigational—as well as the vegetable seller's—shikaras, the rare uninterrupted view of distant snow clad Pir Panjals, or the Hari Parbat hill and the fort atop it. It has everything, so I just couldn't crop! --UnpetitproleX (talk) 01:05, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Neutral I see the arguments on both sides here. I like the composition, but I don't like the long ratio and I'm feeling the same as Basile here. --SHB2000 (talk) 03:31, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose per Benh. -- Karelj (talk) 16:55, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Ratio is okay, but too dark and resolution is not outstanding. --Milseburg (talk) 12:36, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
