Comment. This is a cropped version or second shot of the same subject. Should I link the other file somehow to view?

Looking at it again, I think it is a cropped version. The UUID is the same in the EXIF. I am not sure how to add the other as an alt, but I did add a thumb. I came across this image by fluke. The creator has a nice camera and does good work. Someone may wish to go through their other uploads.--Canoe1967 (talk) 13:44, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose COM:PEOPLE, nothing special, value for wiki? --Yikrazuul (talk) 16:17, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I added tags as per COM:PEOPLE. Value could easily be fashion, antique column graffiti (after crop), facial features/expression, etc, etc.--Canoe1967 (talk) 16:39, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"could be fashion"??? "After crop" is not visible on that picture, and facial expression....So just because it could be nice, it does not necessarily be educational. --Yikrazuul (talk) 18:23, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Could easily be fashion", please don't misquote me and see the IP comment below. An article could easily be written and use the image as a example of social values reflected in fashion. When I said 'crop' I meant the column section could be cropped out as it seems to be the best image we have of the graffiti on this famous building. Another reason for featuring, you may wish to google National Geographic cover for June, 1985. Let me know if you would oppose that image as well. I find them very similar. --Canoe1967 (talk) 19:14, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The other version has more interest with more of the antique column graphiti avialable. In both images there is disconnect between the modesty implied by the head covering and the deeply plunging neckline of the sundress. That could be a plus or a minus depending on your perspective.

This is exactly why this picture was interesting to me. The apparent contradiction between modesty and sexuality. The woman appeared to be a model preparing for what looked like a photo shoot outside the door of one of the most important religious buildings for several faiths. There were several people looking on with obvious scorn. I just wish there was a way to have taken the picture of the spectators. Almonroth (talk) 14:52, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose – No illustrative or educational value regarding the Holy Sepulchre, and the same is true for topics of graffiti and fashion: these features are all too small and obscured by the dominant presence of the woman. Is there a reason to make her a Featured subject? If so, it's not explained. Also, the issue of personal image rights does not seem to have been settled definitively.

Comment. I have emailed my embassy in Tel Aviv (taviv@international.gc.ca). I asked them if local laws do not require consent if an image is taken in a public place with no expectation of privacy.

Support I think the discussion here reflects the same feeling I had when I saw the woman set up and pose at the pillars. When other people were putting wishes on notes in the cracks of the columns and kissing them, praying, she was posing in a very obvious contradiction of mores. Whether it was for money or for personal portfolio, it seemed a challenge to establishment. I think it very interesting. Almonroth (talk) 04:57, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I think the opposing voters underestimate the value of human culture, life and civilization. We really need a lot of people candids describing different cultures and lifestyles. It is easy to take the photos of bugs (like me), architecture and landscapes than these type of works, so should be more appreciated. Jkadavoor (talk) 06:12, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per SteveStrumer, and SteGrifo27. Moreover, I can't find anything about the Holy Sepulchre, and about sexualization. It is a picture of a pretty young woman, nothing provocative, but nothing really interesting to me.--Jebulon (talk) 23:53, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The camara will take 3648x2736 picture but the output will very poor in case of macros; may be due to the small sensor. This is with the help of extended optical zoom (3MP) as advised by the manufacturer. I use the image size setting as 'maximum size/best quality'. I will get a bit more space around if I had used the extended optical zoom (5MP)setting even though I loss a bit details. Jkadavoor (talk) 05:56, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Use of terms like "Bad" and "Disturbing" are inappropriate when reviewing someone's work. Surely there other less contentious words that could be used to gently convey the issue with the image. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.137.245.206 (talk • contribs)
- Eh? As long as the adjective used concerns the picture, and isn't gratuitously over-the-top, then I don't see what is wrong with critical terms. If the nominator can't stand criticism of the picture then don't nominate. My issue with Yikrazuul's comment is that it isn't helpful enough in saying what is "bad" about the crop. Colin (talk) 12:02, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Perhaps it is a Canadian cultural thing. Critisim comes in many guises and not all should be welcome here. I would never tell a child they are being bad, as it is enirely too harsh given the context we use the word (akin to morally reprehensible or defective). These photos are analogous to people's babies. I just don't see the need to be so blunt when so many other descriptive words are available and as you note just saying something is "bad" is not helpful in correcting any issues. It just makes the environment hostile and misses the mark of providing constructive critcism.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.137.245.206 (talk • contribs)
    - Remember that not all contributers have Engish as a first language. Bad is a simple word everyone understands. Since an object itself (the photo) can't misbehave, then the only reasonable meaning is that it is "defective" as you say. Which is a valid criticism, though not very precise. This is not a forum for children so the kind of attitude we have towards reviewing one's child's work or behaviour doesn't apply to adults who have voluntarily put up a picture for public review. As I've said elsewhere, if you just want uncritical praise of your photographs, show them to your mum. There are worse behavioural issues here than reviewers being blunt about an image's defects. These are not people's "babies" and many of the behavioural problems seen here would be improved if folk just took a "win some; lose some" attitude to their nominations, rather than getting all emotional about negativity. Colin (talk) 14:24, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      - Of course they aren't babies but to deny people aren't (or shouldn't be) vested emotionally in their works is silly. This is why in a community such as this the emphasis should be placed on contstructive criticism. No one is asking for uncritical praise just some courtesy when reviewing. Asking that people avoid emotive words like "bad" or "disturbing" shouldn't require this level of debate. Bad may be a short word but it is by no means simple when you take a moment to look at the definition and the baggage this carries. Brushing aside concerns in this regard is all just part of a culture where people are expected to have a stiff upper lip and take it on the chin as if nothing better can be achieved. That may be your worldview but it doesn't have to be the reality here. Moreover, negative votes effectively have twice the weighting of a support vote and as such offering an oppose should come with it clear expectations of justification. Saying something is just bad is not helpful (On this aspect we are in violent agreement) and hurtful. If it is not helpful and/or hurtful then it doesn't belong in a community that hopes to attract and retain contributors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.137.245.206 (talk • contribs)
        Would you mind signing your posts, please. This is off-topic for this nomination really. If you think it is important then could you post on the featured candidate list's talk page and get an account. I see no baggage with the use of the word "bad" in the above example. The fact that the nominator isn't complaining, but just some IP who is unable to contribute images or vote, suggests to me that perhaps it is just you being over-sensitive and reading into the words meanings that aren't there. Colin (talk) 13:14, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
        Rather disappointing end to this debate where ad hominem attacks against the IP showcase what people often find bothersome about wikipedia. Then again I am just an IP. 93.219.117.74 16:25, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support I was going to suggest a closer crop but then I noticed that having the flower facing the camera in the top of the pic is useful as it (along with the flower at the bottom) help show the shape of the flower sans-bee. Colin (talk) 12:02, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  - the animal unclear. the focus is problematic - it think it should to bold the animal better. now it disappear. Zivya (talk) 08:33, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - Dear Zivya; a camera, a lens, or a person can be problematic. I don't see how the focus of an image can be problematic. The focus can be on the right place or can be on the wrong place. It should be on the subject, as is the case of this picture. Therefore I don't understand your statement "the focus is problematic". Maybe you meant, the depth of field is too shallow, meaning there are many blurred parts besides the subject? But then, later on, you state: "it should to bold the animal better", which doesn't mean a thing. I know there are language problems, and you probably used google translator or something... and sorry if I'm being too accurate... but it is good that we all use some standard terms. If you want the background of a picture to be blurred and "bold" the subject, then you should use the correct verb, which would be "emphasize" or "highlight" the subject. By the way, before continuing with your critics on FPC, it would be cool and useful for you to read Commons:Image_guidelines. There, you will learn some useful terms and how to correctly evaluate a picture. Regards, --Paolo Costa (talk) 15:07, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      - as i see, you understand very well what i meant to. you delayed on terms. so to be correct: i think that despite the focus, it is not clear where the subject is located. and i thank you for your polite invite to read the image_guidelines - i think it will be more useful for me to take English course. anyway, i will do my best next time. thank you for you comment.

Support -- Possibly the small f18 has led to diffraction causing a loss of overall sharpness. The small aperture, however, ensures the image is in focus from front to back. This is a 20MP image. If I downsample to 10MP, say, it is gloriously sharp all over. So complaining of "lack of definition" is pixel peeping IMO and punishing the uploader for being generous. This is a lovely picture.

Oppose I find it too misleading. If it were a sequence of, say, five shots with gradual changes, one would understand that it is the same bird in multiple shots. But here it is confusing. There should be a clear border between the two shots, or they should be presented separately. Gidip (talk) 07:51, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I actually have a whole sequence of frames, but the bird is changing altitude, so I would have bits of missing background if I stitched them. It may be possible to put five together or something though. JJ Harrison (talk) 12:48, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - That may be easier that you think I did that with File:Heron and small trout crop.jpg I had to rotate and stitch in some water and rock sections. It didn't take long in gimp with oval sections feathered to a 20 pixel threshold.--Canoe1967 (talk) 20:06, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - Yeah, but I can see where the cloning occurred easily in that shot, and there isn't a uniform background for the egret shot.

Jkadavoor (talk) 06:30, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The alignment is accurate because I used the background features to do it. You would expect the body of the bird to be lower with the wings up. I'll see what I can do about separate images at some point. JJ Harrison (talk) 23:07, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Abstain -- Ximonic (talk) 12:11, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support The picture is imo technically excellent (maybe just a bit dark). ISO 1600 and f/3.5 is very good choice for night shots, with long exposure times. But you also have a good sensor, wide angle lens, and you had enought light, which allowed you to achieve low exp. time, resulting in a beautiful starry sky with no startrails. Nice compo with not too much water. Noise not even bad. Good, very good job. And WOW man! Congrats and thanks for sharing this. --Paolo Costa (talk) 14:07, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

weak oppose:Looks grainy/has compression artefacts. I'm not sure about either but it just doesn't look sharp.--Gauravjuvekar (talk) 17:45, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I tried to make a complete rework from RAW. I think it cannot improve very much from this. There should be only slight camera grain which might be difficult to remove completely because many details might get lost. Of course this is very different thing than capturing stuff in bright day light. One should take that in concideration. Every setting is a compromise to something. --Ximonic (talk) 20:12, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sadly, it is not possible to make everyone happy in photography. I think the image was fine as it was. Night photography is usually about night sky. I remember reading in some book "don't get detail syndrome when shooting night sky". High ISOs are usually recommended (normally above 1000), as well as f/3.5, sacrificing some detail while applying some noise reduction. In my point of view the aurora is the subject in this pic. Auroras are difficult to see even in clear nights, and high ISOs are mandatory, as well as big apertures. The lake just adds that something to the framing, don't think it's important (neither possible) to show everything sharp in this kind of shots. But then, photography is a very subjective art. --Paolo Costa (talk) 14:03, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

For me this version looks somewhat too reddish. I wanted to take special care of the white balance because I guess many of you haven't witnessed northern lights yet. So as I've seen them several times I want to give you the idea of the actual colors and brightness. Although the auroras can be very dim and very bright, also red as well. If you want to photograph them you should travel atleast as far as polar circle. (But I'd rather suggest to go further north because the probability of seeing them increases greatly.) This phenomenon is certainly not rare - it happens all the time but you only need luck with the bright ones. --Ximonic (talk) 09:12, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Too much contrast, too reddish. Yann (talk) 06:44, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose But I think the educational value lacks because the phenomenon is not very natural looking here. So it can mislead people who haven't experienced these things even if some may think it looks more aesthetic this way. --Ximonic (talk) 00:28, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: it has heavy vignette, very visible compression artifacts (JPEG compression), is oversaturated (Color) and the subject too small in the image (Composition).

Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.

Thanks. I can't understand your words. I prefer not to vote. Sorry and thanks; but not QI to me--Miguel Bugallo 22:21, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to Jkadavoor. Now I can understand. The problem is the translation: In Spanish, Galician or Portuguesh, there are two verbs ("ser" and "estar"), but in English only one (to be). If I translate with a automatic translator "la cara está oscura" (= the face is underexposed), the translation can be "the face is dark" (="la cara es oscura", but also ="la cara está oscura"). On the other hand, "oscura", in spanish or galician language, is a shade of a color, never the name of a race. The hair or the skin can be "oscuros" (=dark) regardless of race. Sorry--Miguel Bugallo 21:51, 30 May 2012 (UTC).[reply]

Comment I wondered with the Exif (55mm at f/5.6); very rare to me in bird photography. Could you explain why this choice? Jkadavoor (talk) 06:45, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I checked per random several FP of birds and found a range of f/4 to f/9 and a focal length of 55 - 600. So the values are at the lower border, but not exceptional. The distance to the bird was lesser than 2 m, the light not very good (see exposure time 1/60 with f/5,6). The small distance explains the focal length of 55mm, the bad light f/5,6. A smaller aperture would have caused 1) a exposition time too long for a living object 2) probably a more detailed, distracting background (for the distance to the wall behind was only about 1m), a larger aperture would have caused too little DOF of the object itself. --Llez (talk) 14:25, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

@DimiTalen + Zivya: I think you don't know the Rule of thirds? In portraits: if the sight of the bird is to left, the main subject must be in the third on right.

- Thanks for the review. It would be helpful for me if you could be a bit more specific regarding the technical issues in this QI, as it is not obvious to me. As a Dane, the wow is obvious, but I realize that for non-Danes it may not be so obvious that the photo grasps various element typical of a midsummer celebration in Denmark. The soft evening light, the celebrating newly graduated students with their hats in the boat with the champagne, the bonfire with the witch ready to be lit at sunset after the town mayors speech. The light was just perfect for a few minutes before it got too yellow. But of course, an image should not have to be explained as I do here. If it is not obvious, what the point is, it does not do its job well. --Slaunger (talk) 19:41, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The image annotations are good. Valuable. But it has been downsampled a lot after making the grid alignment of the original images leading to unecessary loss of detail. Moreover, for me the b&w graphics and the grid composition does not work so well for me. --Slaunger (talk) 19:55, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Info Yes, I forgot to say that the images are sampled from the gallery Apollo 11 flight where they are better seen; however I don't know how to nominate a gallery that is why I chose this. Soerfm (talk) 20:05, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I see, but in the process of making the composite from the individual images, the resulting image has been downsampled significantly (basically every four pixels in the original has been merged to one). And that is a pity as information and details are then being thrown away, when there is no reason to do so. --Slaunger (talk) 20:17, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The question is perhaps: should I nominate the gallery instead? Soerfm (talk) 20:24, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I think that would be a better idea. Look for the headline Set nominations in the guideline. It is only very rarely used, and I do not know how you actually set it up. I doubt the FPC bot can handle a set nomination, for example. Alternatively, you may want to try as a Valued image set candidate, see also COM:VICR. This process works (with some manual assistance) for image sets. --Slaunger (talk) 20:38, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- Not a healthy specimen to get featured; I afraid. Jkadavoor (talk) 02:04, 6 June 2012 (UTC)and on http://sfinx.me[reply]
Support I think in this case the subtle pattern of damage to the wings actually gives a beautiful effect. My only concern is with the colours - the somewhat harsh flashlight might have changed the natural colours of the butterfly. Gidip (talk) 06:26, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support I partly agree with Jkadavoor. A healthy specimen should be shown. But I also agree with Tomer: this pic has educational value, showing how the wings of a BF get as they age... the name should be changed. I also recommend to review the colors. Think it might be a little oversaturated, and very yellow. This BF is, imo, more brown looking. --Paolo Costa (talk) 17:48, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Interesting scenary and good composition. The deciduous trees on the slopes looks a bit weird to me. Their trunks are sharp end well-defined, but as we move out to the smaller branches and twigs everything is smeared out. This looks for me like the result of some combined sharpening/noise reduction, which has had some negative side effects on the detail level? But I may be wrong... --Slaunger (talk) 22:11, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As this photo was taken in early April, I would rather say that it is because of the buds at tip of the stems. I love this fleeting moment in spring when trees seem like in a light grey - green mist, covered with buds and very small begins of leaves. --Myrabella (talk) 05:17, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I like it. The composition and technical quality is good (high DOF, very little noise), the dusk light is delicate. It is difficult to take an interesting photo of a subject which normally is perceived as - perhaps - boring. But you do that well. Some observations though: The three lit logos for the Familjebostäder at the ground floor level are partially blown, and it hard to recognise the logos. At least for me it took some time to realise it is the same symbol higher up one of the buildings. If you did bracketed exposure you can maybe recover some details with some exposure blending? There is some motion blur on some leaves of some trees to the right due to the 5 s exposure, acceptable for me though. --Slaunger (talk) 20:12, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you very much for your careful review. There is a single shot and no bracketing. I did adjusted the highlight, but there are limits even for D7000's superb dynamic range.--ArildV (talk) 20:33, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Neutral Yep. I realize that for a single shot, this is very good. It is a pity you did not do a bracketed exposure now that you had everything set up with a tripod and all... I really can't support with the partially blown logos, sorry. --Slaunger (talk) 20:43, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral Nice sharpness, but it could be improved by lying prone to get better background isolation and make the shot appear to be from the bird's level. JJ Harrison (talk) 01:17, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But then it may cause a blurred foreground as in the musroom shot above because the subject is perched on flat ground. Othervise I too prefer this suggestion here and whenever possible. Jkadavoor (talk) 13:32, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I think this is a very good tip. I have tried it myself before, getting great results. You have to be careful with the foreground yes, but it can be done nicely. Unfortunately, this was a city shot, taken in a park: I had to cut out a yellow edge of a sidewalk on top. Taking the shot from floor level would have shown a very distracting background. --Paolo Costa (talk) 21:58, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment why TIF? Tomer T (talk) 14:30, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I did not get any other alternative. However, alternatives found may be appreciated. BTW there is no rule "TIF Images should not be FP's" and such, right? Dipankan001 (talk) 15:16, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know such a rule, but not every comment should be according to a certain rule. I don't see why it is tif, one can't open it to full resolution without downloading the file. I think it should be converted. Tomer T (talk) 15:22, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support Béria Lima ^msg 14:29, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Very nice image. But is this a real image, or a composition? File name is too long and not relevant (it cannot be a Hubble image, as mountains are visible at the horizon...). Description is way too long, not informative about the image itself and completely outside the question. Tif format is no problem IMO, as this format is allowed for Commons uploads. -- MJJR (talk) 21:43, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So you don't believe that this is not a real image? See source: 1. It is from HubbleSite. Dipankan001 (talk) 06:24, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This won't happen before 4 billion years. Yann (talk) 10:49, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is an artists concept, ofcourse. I'm quite sure such picture can not be shot anywhere in the world because all the colliding galaxies seen from Earth are too small to form as clear view as here through the lower sky. The effect of the atmosphere would be strong. This image is an illustration and the credits go to NASA, ESA, Z. Levay and R. van der Marel (STScI), and A. Mellinger. 2 --Ximonic (talk) 13:42, 3 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously if it is eventually deleted then it will no longer be an FP. --Avenue (talk) 23:18, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support Like it too. Huge wow. Do you use a specific setup for lighting? I'd be interested to know if you don't mind sharing. - Benh (talk) 10:19, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- A shoot-through umbrella with a remote flash was held by a friend just to the right of the frame close to the mushrooms to create a soft light source. The rear left lighting is just the sun filtering through the rain and clouds. It could be emulated with another shoot-through umbrella or softbox (I did have more equipment in my pack). Fill is achieved with ambient light by adjusting shutter speed. In addition, the whole thing was stacked with CombineZP to maximize the depth of field. JJ Harrison (talk) 11:48, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Thanks a lot. I doubt I could emulate this easily, but I'll have that in mind if I hunt for mushrooms some day. - Benh (talk) 14:18, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - FWIW, The lighting gear was just cheap eBay stuff, probably under $50 worth excluding the flash. JJ Harrison (talk) 02:16, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      - I was more questioning my skills than my gear ;). I don't have shot through umbrella, but was thinking about using reflective cone instead to diffuse light and playing with flash intensity and exposure time to get it right as you did. Maybe I'll have a shopping session on eBay and check. Thanks again. - Benh (talk) 08:18, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment {removed file link, up for deletion} I gave it a rotate and crop. Opinions as to whether this image can be improved in similar ways? Feel free to use the page I uploaded for changes.--Canoe1967 (talk) 18:45, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I think if any adjustment should be made, it is to straighten the verticals with a perspective correction (not a mere rotation) from the original photo. The rotation above is actually makes the problem worse, and the long edge of the platform mustn't be made horizontal as it is at a considerable angle to the viewer. I agree the crop isn't ideal. Either take from higher up to get the horse's feet, or include the base. Colin (talk) 12:13, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Yes, that made it worse. Like Colin said, when rotating, always look at vertical lines, not the horizontal ones. But as this was made at 82&nbps;mm (18.1 times 4.55, correct me if I'm wrong), it should be possible to walk a little further away and get a better angle. --Julian H.

Support If you climb up to the minaret of of Selimiye mosque you have this view of the city. Generally speaking the minarets are not open for climbing up. Luckily the day of visit it was open for visit and I got this panorama. In the background there are the borders between Turkey and Greece and there this is the part where the fence against immigration is being built [4]. In the image you can see in the background the Maritsa river. -- Ggia (talk) 06:37, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I like the colours, and the tree branches don't bother me and actually frame the building. However, the leading lines of the road head off to the right and a gate rather than the subject. The building and main statue are facing the left but are also on the left-hand-side, so faces out of the picture. The composition doesn't work for me. Colin (talk) 18:44, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The detail level, light and colors are good, but the close proximity to the tower gives so much geometric distortion that it spoils the experience for me (and I will not ask for the standard "please correct the perspective", as I am not sure it will make sense in this case). The foreground building structures does not do much good to the composition either. It appears for me, see e.g. File:Santa Francesca Romana 09feb08 02.jpg that other shooting locations are possibe, where a better view to the tower is achieved.

Support Cropped version, above and below, after the kind requests of some friends here, of the view of the "Grande Perspective" of the park "à la française" at castle of Champs-sur-Marne.

Info Dragonflies and Damselflies are unique in the insect world in that the male possess a set of secondary sexual organs on the 2nd abdominal segments as well as his primary sexual apparatus on the 9th segment at the end of his abdomen. Before copulation, the male has to transfer sperm from the primary to the secondary genitalia. So the male prepares for mating by bending his abdomen downward and forward to form a circle and transfers sperm from the tip of his abdomen to a small pouch at the base of the secondary genitalia. In essence, the male has to inseminate himself before he can even begin the action of inseminating a female. All by me -- Jkadavoor (talk) 07:14, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Info Venus transit captured by Solar Dynamics Observatory. Created by NASA/SDO - uploaded by Huntster - nominated by Ximonic -- Ximonic (talk) 02:08, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support Another great view to the past rare event. -- Ximonic (talk) 02:08, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose When I read "Ultra-high Definition View" I was expecting great things. But this is a 1,920 × 1,080 downsampled-for-TV image or computer wallpaper. It appears the "camera" on-board has a 4,096 × 4,096 sensor, which must have seemed "Ultra-high Definition" when it was being built but maybe not so these days. For a full-res comparison, see File:SDO's Ultra-high Definition View of 2012 Venus Transit (171 Angstrom Full Disc).jpg. Also, the image description page should note the filter used, which explains the rather unusual image of the sun in fake colours (which I personally find ugly but that's a side point). Colin (talk) 07:43, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Almost every image of the sun is taken with filters, that has nothing to do with fake colours or ugliness, it's essential for seeing any detail. --Julian H. (talk/files) 13:53, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't find any version of this with a higher resolution although this resolution is just above the current guidelines. I personally find the composition more pleasing here than in the other picture with full sun behind that link (Mostly concidering the compositional choice of planet Venus along with the sun). I also think this version might have the best educational value. But I would be glad if someone finds a higher resolution version of this very image. --Ximonic (talk) 14:57, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I found a higher resolution, working on it. --Julian H. (talk/files) 15:59, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

4,096 × 1,964 version is up. --Julian H. (talk/files) 16:06, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support Thanks Julian. That was worth it. Not only is this an 8MP vs 2MP better resolution, but is also a higher quality image. The discs of Venus are blacker and the whorls in the Sun are more detailed and less blown out. And the crop is larger. I still think it would help our viewers to explain on the image description page the filter used, because this is a really odd image of the sun. -- Colin (talk) 19:15, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's absolutely true, a comment about that would help. --Julian H. (talk/files) 21:23, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Nominator is another of many Steinway-promoting sockpuppets. Uploader is a globally blocked Steinway promoter and incorrigible puppetmaster. The case page at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Fanoftheworld gives a hint of the extent of the damage, including the pushing of Steinway images to replace ones by other piano companies, using multiple language Wikipedias to accomplish the task. This particular image was initially uploaded by Fanoftheworld, the first recognized puppetmaster, and was nominated by a sock: Hereiamfriends.

Support great picture. --PierreSelim (talk) 20:48, 15 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It is a dramatic picture, and looked great in the preview window. But then I click on it and see it has been rather crudely cut out from its background, stuck on black and what I assume to be a fake shadow/light-spot created. There's banding on the light spot. I will try another computer tomorrow to see if it is just my display, but the banding is pretty awful on this one. The lighting of the skeleton, although dramatic, does lack subtlety. Sorry. -- Colin (talk) 20:52, 15 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the lack of subtlety of the lighting. This is a piece that was expressed in premanante in a glass wall open to the outside. The light is the sun there is none else. The reflection of the windows, the background make it hard clipping of this animal. The new background is actually artificial, what to see is the animal. And it's so nice for a scientific photogrpahe occasionally have a little fantasy. :)--Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 05:38, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation. I'm just learning Photoshop myself but I'm aware there are many subtle ways of lifting an object from one background to another, and this seems to have had a hard cut all round, which isn't the technical standard I'd expect at FP. Regarding lighting, even with just the sun as the light, one can soften it or reflect it. There's a strong colour-temperature difference between in and out of shadow, and the tail in particular is poorly lit and at a completely different temperature to the head. I do like how the hard light has highlighted the texture in the spine, but this works less well on the head which might have benefited from some reflected light to lift the shadow. I see I'm pretty much alone in finding fault with it, though, so you shouldn't have any worries about it making FP! Colin (talk) 08:16, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry, to me it looks like an experiment that didn't quite work. Lots of flare. The image can't decide what the subject is. If it is the lamp, then the wallpaper, coving and ceiling are just distracting elements. If you look at images of light fittings, you generally don't see the bulb. For good reason: it isn't particularly attractive and unless dimmed, it blows your dynamic range and it is very hard to avoid flare. In fact, the only reason I can think of to include the fully lit bulb would be if experimenting with HDR... Colin (talk) 20:11, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kooritza, thanks for nominating my image!

TrebleSeven, this image is not just special. It is very special. Transit of Venus happens two times (within 8 years span) with more than 100 years interval in between. So, if you missed this one, you will probably see none in your life time. This is not only a very interesting and a rare astronomical event, but it has an interesting history too.

About my image itself. From the ones that are on wikipedia now, my image is not the best (NASA images taken from satellites are better), but at least for now it is probably the best white light filter image taken from the Earth.--Mbz1 (talk) 18:25, 15 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Request Comment I would oppose if I could for one very important reason. I like the picture but the comparison between Earth and Venus size is misleading as it leads the viewer to think it also extends to the Sun's size! I think it confused TrebleSeven already. If the size of the Sun was to be compared with Earth and Venus than the planet's size would be about a third of the apparent size of Venus crossing the Sun. I strongly suggest to remove the Earth and Venus picture or to put it on the same scale as the Sun.--G Furtado (talk) 23:19, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I like the framing, however, the vertical perspective needs correction. --Jovian Eye _storm 02:22, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the review. If there is anything correctable I am eager to fix it. It would be helpful if you could be a bit more specific with, e.g., some image annotations. If it is the apparent tilt in the foreground you are referring to, it is due to the fact that the street has a slight slope downhills from right to left. I have thought about cropping it slightly in the foreground to get rid of the wedge shaped small strip of pavement to the right. Do you think that would be a good idea? --Slaunger (talk) 06:00, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
