Info More appealing composition than the existing FP in my view. My first intention was to highlight the crepuscular rays, though now I consider the panoramic more striking. Created - uploaded - nominated by Basile Morin -- Basile Morin (talk) 23:10, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It may not be worth me asking you Mile as you only ever oppose, and never ever support, my images. But do please explain what you mean by "Yellow/green channel" and "uncalibrated colors". I am happy to tweak colour balance but only if I can understand what you think I need to do to make the image better. Photoshop has magenta<>green and yellow<>blue sliders for colour balance. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:13, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

How about you send me raw and i try to show what i would like. I didnt know i only oppose your shots, are you sure i never add "s" !? I dont count votes. But more or less your type of coloring (edit) is not what i like so much. Nothing personal. --Mile (talk) 17:37, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Something like this. I saw spider on other photos, and this is more normal. Leaf went to yellow, see spider net, they are more white, your colors go to cyan/magenta. See that piece of wood bellow front leg, it goes to red color. --Mile (talk) 17:54, 27 May 2021 (UTC) P.S. I did saw now 1st version, now we see 2nd. You actually spoiled the colors.

Info One day at a tiny oval track in the middle of nowhere in 2017, British Drift Championship driver Adam Simmons showed up in his JZ-powered R33 competition car to a Norfolk Arena Drift Team practice day. It was massively overpowered given the size of the track and I knew I only had one chance of photographing him before the track was blanketed in tyre smoke. I think I got the job done.

Support interesting to see close-up what's mainly known on a larger scale — Rhododendrites ^talk | 15:50, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Well-done technically but very busy; I can't really decide what the subject is. Daniel Case (talk) 16:53, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Just as in many paintings, the "subject" is the entire scene. And it's a good composition, but a complex one that I need to live with longer before passing judgment on it as an FP candidate. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:39, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I think that for the whole scene to be the subject, there needs to be some kind of story told, some kind of thematic connection. This has several different interesting details, but it doesn't feel like it comes together for me. -- Lambda (talk) 17:21, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Paintings with similar compositions don't require an actual narrative. This composition has a linear arabesque. That's sufficient for a coherent composition. And it does work for me. However, I'm not convinced it's a great composition, for the reason I alluded to in my question below. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:06, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I think I'd like the composition better if the top crop were more generous, such as if I could see virtually uninterrupted wood in the upper left. Is that possible? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:11, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately not. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:35, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I agree that this photo is a bit too busy, without a clear subject or series of subjects. It's an interesting picture, but I don't think it's quite FP ready. One thing that might help is cropping out some of the right side; the trees there don't add much, and add to the business. A crop somewhere among the bamboo could help that. -- Lambda (talk) 17:16, 29 May 2021 (UTC) Lambda: Not eligible to vote yet. --A.Savin 03:15, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Info created by F7a8 - uploaded by F7a8 - nominated by F7a8 -- F7a8 (talk) 14:18, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a special photo mosaic that was based on a lot of photos. It was created with a custom program for large datasets using all JPEG images from Commos 2003-2020, which was about 53 million images and a little over 100 TB. The special thing about this mosaic is that although it has only a very coarse resolution of 15 by 20 tiles, the main subject is quite well recognizable.

Support -- F7a8 (talk) 14:18, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Quite nice (it reminds me my own painting), but on the technical aspect, there are some white and black strokes visible on the edges of some squares at the right and at the bottom left. Is worth a correction. Impressive assemblage -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:34, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment This is due to the procedure of using square cutouts from the images, but always in the maximum size. If there are black or white stripes on the edge of the original image, but they exceed others in color uniformity, they are set by the program as well. F7a8 (talk) 09:09, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

True there is a frame around this file and others, but could you crop the original images, so as to remove the black borders, and then feed your software? Or just fix the few squares manually, using an image software like Photoshop? -- Basile Morin (talk) 23:27, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question What happened with the voting period? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:07, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Could be my mistake as there was a longer time between nomination steps. The process looks completed, can I repeat it? F7a8 (talk) 09:09, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

F7a8, you created this nomination on 19 May 2021,‎ but forgot to put it here on the FPC list, and the Bot goes by the creation date when closing nominations. I have removed the Bot-closing for now. Perhaps admin A.Savin would be so kind as to reset this nomination, I'm not exactly sure how to do it. You also erased/omitted the gallery for this image. It is in fact a very elaborate collage so it would fall into the 'Non-photographic media/Computer-generated' gallery. I have added it for you and please don't remove that entry on future nominations. --Cart (talk) 10:10, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done. --A.Savin 13:24, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Great effort, but the content in the individual photos that clashes with the referenced composition makes this less than ideally smooth to me at a fairly small size (merely full screen on my 13-inch laptop, not close to 100%, at which size the deviation from the referenced composition should be more pronounced, so that's fine). -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:09, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Where I grew up we had lots of ads for monster trucks, with some races, demolition derbies, and one yearly air show where there was always a rocket truck. And yeah the over-the-top radio/TV announcer for all of them. ...And lest people assume this is something that only happens in Texas, the south, etc. ... no, this exists in the most urban and cultured parts of the US, too. I think I saw one monster truck event, and we never really went to races, but that air show was a yearly highlight... and it's there that there was always a rocket truck like this. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 04:52, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, Commons is a repository for all kinds of images, for all kinds of projects and situations. As you might have noticed I often nominate photos that are a bit "outside the box". It's not that I can't do 'normal' photos, I even nominate a few once in a while (like the diamond necklace), but the project needs diversity and that means it's better if some of us do photos of things other than pretty landscapes, flowers and studio shots. Like Daniel said, try to see this on the cover of a CD or LP, that might help you understand. Or like this photo, that actually became the cover art on a book. This is also what Commons is about. --Cart (talk) 20:01, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not criticising the idea, it can be liked or not, CDs or a book can have an internal meaning within the disc itself to explain the cover, but here I'm judging the subject, and frankly I'd like to see it sharp. A matter of taste, no offence. P.S. I gave the diamond photo a positive vote [1]. --Co mmon ists 20:27, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I know, that's why I used it as an example. But the point was that the rules for FPC actually says that photos should not be judged from a simple "I like/don't like it" standpoint, but on how useful they are for the Wikimedia project. Of course we all fall into that trap sometimes. I'm not writing here to make you "like" this and change your vote, I was trying to answer your "I honestly don't understand what it is" comment and explain. --Cart (talk) 20:50, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely, but my:"I don't know what it is" can also be read :"what's the point?". I honestly don't understand these pictures but of course I welcome other opinions.--Co mmon ists 21:43, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I too am on the fence. No question that the composition is great, but we're getting quite a few in-flight images in the FP gallery now, so the bar is beginning to be raised.

The Electro-Optical Targeting System (EOTS) is probably one of the coolest parts of the F-35 for the amateur viewer, which is completely blurry in this image. It is also not clear to me whether the second Rafale has a loaded missile at the tip of its wing or just looks like this.

Does it really matter if the photo was posed? It's not unusual that historical photos were "recreated" since phone cameras were not yet invented. This man is named, so not a random partisan or a war photo, and should be treated more as a portrait photo of the times. People pose with all kind of stuff in portraits. The Commons:Featured pictures/People/Portrait#Men gallery would be more appropriate. --Cart (talk) 12:01, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak support Yes, it's got flaws, but ... I like the story his facial expression tells. On the one hand it is the confidence that comes with victory and approaching peace, a very Italian confidence; on the other it is apprehension about finally having gotten there masking the fear that he might have gotten too used to war, and lost too much of himself (to say nothing of others who fought alongside him (OK, it's Memorial Day here in the US, but I just realized that was a coincidence)) to truly appreciate that desired outcome he has fought so hard for.

Question Has the focus-stacking blurred the images in the drops of water? Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:06, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Don't you need a completely different focus (way outside the normal focus stacking interval and possibly a different lens) to get the droplet images sharp too? For most

droplet images, it's either focus on the flower or on the droplet image, rarely both. --Cart (talk) 11:46, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In Helicon Focus you can select, say, image 5 for one droplet and image 9 for another after doing the stack. Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:49, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think similar things are possible in most stacking programs, but to do it you will still need the image material to do so. When stacking a flower, one might not always chose to have the droplet images sharp too. In this case, I think it would draw the attention from the flower bud and to the droplets instead. Also, to get good in-drop images, you need round drops, these are elongated and will naturally distort any image in them. --Cart (talk) 14:09, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the responses. I don't quite understand all the comments. But that's probably just me. I stacked the photos with "Helicon Focus" and edited them in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. It went to me on the broken flower bud. I only noticed that the drops would become so large during the development. In a few drops see some of the environment. Do I need to change something about the photo or should I withdraw the photo? PS. My response is a bit late. I was not online before today.--Famberhorst (talk) 15:46, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Famberhorst, you don't need to do anything. :-) Charles and I are simply discussing photo aesthetics. He wants everything perfectly sharp, including what is seen inside the water drops, while I don't think it would contribute to the photo. To me, it is a beautiful photo as it is. Please keep the nomination open and let voter decide. --Cart (talk) 16:46, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your response. I added the diameter of the flower bud. It was ± 15 mm.--Famberhorst (talk) 16:58, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As cart says, the photo is fine, I just wonder if you can eliminate the blurring in the water droplets by using selective retouch in Helican Focus? Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:01, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

About 5m for this shot. The gorillas completely ignore humans. When the guide tells us that the one hour permitted for viewing is up, the gorilla group gets up and moves off. This happened in both Uganda and Rwanda. Totally worth saving up for. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:58, 2 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"the gorilla group gets up and moves off" Correction: the gorilla group checks its phones, gets up and moves off.

As we know, classical vegetarian food doesn't exclude milk products. As for vegan food, certainly there's also "vegan cheese" you can use; anyway I cannot imagine pizza with neither cheese nor tomato paste. What is on the picture, looks like some piece of bread topped by a variety of vegetables, yet not like a pizza. Probably OK to go, but not particularly appetizing. IMHO --A.Savin 19:54, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

w:Focaccia is sometimes called "pizza bianca" and doesn't need to have cheese on it at all. I don't think the claim that this isn't really pizza is a good criterion for opposing the photo. Whether it is a good composition or looks appetizing are good criteria. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:13, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It is more like a bruschetta than focaccia. But i should write piece of pizza. It was part of biger pizza.

Info To me, just a quintessential picture of a male house finch. This is the bird I most associate with birdfeeders. Not because they're the most common, but because unlike sparrows, nuthatches, woodpeckers, cardinals, etc., I almost never see house finches when they're not at/near a feeder.

@Tomer T and Basile Morin: The uploader doesn't appear very active, so FYI I uploaded a new version.

Comment I'd like a discussion of the 3 versions in the history. Is this the best version, is another one better, why or why not? I think the original (or originally uploaded version, anyway) is most vivid, and I like its contrast, but perhaps it's a bit too contrasty (I'm not sure I like the solid black shapes, such as on his beard). The second version is too dark. I think the current version is brighter than optimal and not contrasty enough. It also does appear to me that the 2nd and current versions have a different kind of grain or noise than the 1st version, and that's worth discussion, too. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:57, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I apologise for using an obscure English expression. I should have explained. 'Says it all' means that the existing FP tells us about the subject. The new FP adds no value, it says nothing new, and is actually misleading unless you know it is stained. If it happens that the new FP is truer to life then the nomination should be delist and replace as the existing FP would be mislaeading. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:42, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The staining is used to better show the structure of the plant, and I think it does so excellently in this photo, more clearly than in the photo with natural colors. Staining is a good scientific method and should not be disregarded. Both photos are valuable, in different ways. I think a good solution would be to place this stained photo in the Commons:Featured pictures/Natural phenomena#Organic gallery where we have other weirdly colored scientific photos like this. I have put cross references in the 'Other' slot on both files so they can be compared and for clarification.

Support -- It would be useful to add the staining agent (iodine?) in the description of this image just to help distinguish it from the other FP natural color. --GRDN711 (talk) 20:04, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The staining method is already in the description (luminescence). For many organic compounds/plants/minerals/etc. it is often enough to just shine a UV light on them since they contain natural fluorescent agents (duh... CSI). This can sometimes be helped along by the use of some chemical substance, but I don't think iodine is involved. Here a rather precise light at 365 nm has been used (see the file description), so I don't think any chemical has been added. Please compare with other photos of plants under UV-light, the blackthorn is the closest to this. The term for this is still "staining", since it is not looked at under natural light. There is also already cross-references between the two photos explaining what is what, per my comment above if you check the file pages. --Cart (talk) 20:53, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support The first thing this reminded me of was a scene in A Quiet Place Part II, which became the first movie I went out to the theater and saw in 16 months last weekend. It also uses an apparent abandoned train station (not one ever used the way the film suggested it was, though) to great effect.
The mood of disuse is also enhanced by shooting in late winter, without any snow to pretty things up but still at the point where spring looks unlikely. It's got nice earth tones and symmetry. Daniel Case (talk) 20:16, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Info I've been sitting on this one for a few months, not sure if I should nominate it. I really like it as a scene (the light, color, composition, mix of urban geometry in the background with nature in the foreground, etc.). But I know it'll fail if evaluated instead just as a documentary shot of a squirrel. So we'll see what you think, I guess. :) all by — Rhododendrites ^talk | 14:47, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The light is exquisite and the compo subtly showing how these animals have adapted to urban areas is great. --Cart (talk) 15:01, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Question All a matter of taste, but would the crop I've indicated work? Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:43, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That would give it almost the same tight crop as most FPs of squirrels as well as ruin the 'light and space' of this photo. I think a bit of diversity in animal photo compos is great. If this was our only FP(C) of a squirrel, a crop might be considered, but they are common animals with lots of FPs and photo opportunities, allowing for some creativity. Also a crop makes it harder to identify the pattern in the background as a building. It would look just like some undefined obscure object/fence/grate/whatever and the whole idea with the image would be lost. --Cart (talk) 17:18, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the suggestion, but more or less in line with what cart says, that would put the photo in a different category in which I don't feel like it works as well. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 21:02, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Small tip: When you have a bird like this feeding on a flower, chances are it's a flower that is a regular food source for that bird. So... you do a Google picture search on the bird, "Scarlet-chested sunbird", and see if any photos of the birdie with a look-alike plant pops up. Sure enough, a bunch did, like this: Scarlet-chested sunbird (Chalcomitra senegalensis) feeding on Aloe flower. Ndutu area, Ngorongoro Conservation Area NCA / Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. Looks close enough. So you do a second search for "Aloe flower", and they look pretty much the same as in your photo. Even dear ol' Commons came up in the search with File:Aloe zebrina flower.jpg. To make sure, you can combine the searches and then you really hit the jackpot. Next time, you know how to do it yourself. --Cart (talk) 21:33, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment While those familiar with what Spam and kosher is, will find this a bit odd and perhaps even funny, I'm a bit hesitant about a photo that requires an in-depth explanation. Left by itself without any text or knowledge about the subject, it is misleading. This past year has taught us that people will believe anything if they can find something resembling "proof". --Cart (talk) 16:27, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I think the DoF is shallow and even the closest area is not sharp enough, and otherwise not particularly exciting or curious motif to me -- most likely it's just this camera position that gives you the wrong impression of SPAM being mixed with kosher food.

It would work in one of those listicles BuzzFeed does, and has done, on this very topic (something that usually results from temporary situations while doing resets, although I unfortunately could not find one to link to).

Abstain as nominator. Space shuttle Endeavour and its six-member STS-134 crew break through the cloud cover over Florida after launch, as they head toward Earth orbit and rendezvous with the International Space Station. I stumbled upon this photo a few days ago, liked it and thought it might be worth a try here. An early digital photo from 2011, so some technical issues, but I think the 'wow' still holds. The photo was taken through the window of an airplane, so a bit hazy and tinted by the glass. I gave the photo a cleanup in that I tried to "undo" the window glass. Also added some sharpness and noise reduction, plus cropped it. -- Cart (talk) 16:36, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support This image probably would need some explanation to go with it to understand what it is but it is an intriguing subject from an unusual perspective with lots of wow. Technical considerations are fine. --GRDN711 (talk) 18:20, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This is one of those photos from the space shuttle program that circulate years and years after (I found out), bordering on making it iconic. We see these launces as big and fantastic events, but the scale of the shuttle in this photo makes it more understandable what insignificant farts we are on the grand scale. As for tilt... Is there really tilt in space? When you deal with the curvature of Earth, I think tilt goes out the window. I also like the ray of the sun mimicing and "welcoming" the shuttle. --Cart (talk) 08:15, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Therefore, we consulted Nikitin N.A., Doctor of Biological Sciences, Department of Virology and Borisevich S.S. Candidate of Chemical Sciences, Specialist in Molecular Modeling of Viral Surface Proteins. And this was good for the project. We have finalized the model. New sources of knowledge have been added to her description. Both of our consultants are aware of our project and have agreed to indicate their names. Thank you! Sorry for my English;).

Alright then, I guess that should be enough for a Support. Thanks for following up on that! Should it really get published in scientific literature, you might want to put {{Published}} on the file's discussion page (let me know if I can help with that).

Comment Thanks! @Michielverbeek: I chose evening light to create the chiaroscuro. I think it helps make the single concrete elements more plastic (there's almost always some degree of shadows anyway); @KoH: yeah, it's a very tight spot. There's always something that doens't really fit, a pity. Thanks anyway!

Oppose on technical quality. There is some posterization and noise in the water at the bottom, which should be fixable with reprocessing. However, I see patches of light grey on the rocks in various places (annotated), which is usually a sign that the whites have been overexposed and forcibly pulled back despite there being no detail to recover. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:21, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don't known from what it comes from but I'm unable to see the notes. But in all cases if there are issues, they likely comes from my bad habit of "too much (and often poor) processing", because I just checked the raw file, there is not a single area overexposed neither underexposed. I'm going to send you a mail via Commons, if either you reply I will have your address and I will send you the RAW file, and you will see by yourself.

Weak oppose it looks to me like the contrasts have been pushed a bit too far, and the end result is too harsh imo. Not all of the dynamic range has to be used everywhere all the time; I think it would be more relaxing to look at if the different elements faded together a bit instead of the constant piecewise separation through jumps between bright and darkness. --Trougnouf (talk) 10:49, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I withdraw my nomination ok fine, my processing is very likely not adequate. Thanks you all of you for all your comments.

Question Why no mention of the tripod? It would have been a good idea to clean the camera before the shot. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:07, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Added a description of the tripod. He has no brand --Knopik-som (talk) 10:53, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The tripod could be a Soviet copy of the classic Leitz Tischstativ or Kleinstativ #14100 which was produced since the 1950s (?) in a very similar form. Especially the simple and clever mechanism for the legs seems identical. I have been told that this was one of the most stable mini-tripods ever made. --Aristeas (talk) 09:11, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Just for the record: I have found some free photos of the (later form of the) mentioned Leitz or Leica Tischstativ tripod: folded and ready for use. Note the clever folding mechanism. Earlier copies of the Leitz tripod are even more similar to the one visible in your photo of the Zenit 11 camera. --Aristeas (talk) 15:47, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support This camera is a Soviet-era model, as your description suggests? If so, I like the idea of it not being clean for the shot. This camera is telling us that it's a survivor, that it has every much a right to be posed as if for an advertisement as a brand-new cutting-edge Nikon or Canon straight off the assembly line, polished to perfection. Daniel Case (talk) 17:35, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Was produced ~ 1977-1983 years. There is no information about this model in Wikipedia yet. --Knopik-som (talk) 08:41, 11 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support per Daniel. --Aristeas (talk) 08:10, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Question Just out of curiousiy: One of your other photos of the same camera and lens (?) shows a much shorter distance between the lens and the camera. Are there some extension tubes or similar between the lens and the camera on this photo? --Aristeas (talk) 09:00, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment In this case, rings will not help. I shoot with a Canon 60D camera. From a distance of 1-1,5 meters. Later: RAW - TIF (110%-120%), Cropping & reduction to 5-8mp. I shot almost all cameras like this cameras. Camera Fotocor filmed on Nikon D70s, it was difficult, this camera has only 6 Mp. --Knopik-som (talk) 22:00, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Ah, sorry, my question was not clear. I did not want to ask about how you took this (digital) photo, but whether there are extension tunes mounted on the Zenit 11 camera between the camera body and the Helios 44 M lens. But I have found that there is another photo by you which shows the extension tubes, so my question has already been answered. I was just curious.

Nice scene but Oppose poor detail (entire frame is blurry), purple areas in the clouds, chromatic aberration, overall very dark, and the composition seems a bit random to me. I think a landscape framing would have done better here. Why f/18? Stopping down so much causes a lot of diffraction. f/5.6 and 1/500 s would have given a much sharper image, IMHO. --Kreuz schnabel 18:55, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose I give the photographer credit for a great background and artistic composition, but the actual dish itself is under 1.5 MB and, in my opinion, would benefit from showing more detail. Buidhe (talk) 16:22, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support per Buidhe. Could be bigger, but I don't really think it has to be. Rasgulla is not a large dessert. On the other hand, the very detailed photo of a golden delicious apple nominated further down the page gives me pause in considering whether this is one of the best food pictures on the site. I don't have three hands, but this is a different type of food photo - that of composed food in a larger composition - than a photo of an apple and a half apple. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:03, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

FYI Jpeg version fixed. And before someone asks, these are monofilament polymers (manmade fibers) extruded criss-cross and fused together (the "lumps") into a mesh, probably using heat (textured heated roll, working kind of like thousands of low-watt spot welding tools). The fibers are photographed in polarized light and that gives them lots of colors same as with this. --Cart (talk) 15:09, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wet-blanket oppose Good for the competition it was in, probably, but not for FP. Since not only are the scientists turned to the side, their faces are mostly covered up, their bafflement is informed (i.e., without looking at the filename and the description, I could come up with several scenarios as to what's going on, which might not even include what actually is happening). Yes, the two scientists are symmatrical, and yes, there's a clean white look, but compositionally that's not striking enough.
Lastly there's a bit more noise and unsharpness than we usually tolerate in FPs. Daniel Case (talk) 17:24, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The "bands" are easily identifiable as cellulose fibers. This is low-quality paper so there are bits and pieces of plant (tree) material residue in the paper, the bit with the holes in it. The clumps and lumps are additives to hold the paper together (lignin and glue), make it whiter (chalk and/or starch or titanium dioxide) or some other color plus something for the texture (clay/kaolin). --Cart (talk) 14:32, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support "Lev Tolstoy in Yasnaya Polyana", 1908, the first color photo portrait in Russia. -- Tomer T (talk) 09:10, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Obviously a very valuable image in a whole bunch of ways, but what's the advantage in making the photo bigger than the original, other than because small photos usually can't be FPs? Also, why is it a good idea to decrease the saturation and contrast so much? Is the point to show Tolstoy as much as possible as we think he really looked in the photo or to respect the processes and results that produced this image and use a digital file that's as close as possible to the appearance of the original photo as possible? I think it should be the latter. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:23, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure I understand your comment, Ikan? It looks like the latest version is taken from a Russian museum website, so is likely to be better resolution with faithful colours. Of course, users shouldn't have overwritten the file, nobody seems to read those instructions. It wasn't a user who changed the size/saturation. -- Colin (talk) 13:15, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I see, thanks for clarifying the source, but the photo on the linked site looks much smaller than the Commons version. Also, let's see what kind of response A.Savin's points get. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:30, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'd love to support, but I'm really not sure if the colours and contrast are faithful. It's quite possible that the more colourful version is closer to the original; many photos by SPG appear well saturated. --A.Savin 16:27, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Charles, could you please check your signatures when you edit. You have a habit of dropping half of them. I often fix this for you, but it would be nice if you made sure they are complete. Thanks! --Cart (talk) 21:27, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment IMHO the image looks like scanned from a printed (halftone) image and then smoothed to reduce the visibility of the halftone dots. The bright areas in the background show the slight moiré (“Rosettenbildung”) which typically occurs when smoothing a scanned halftone print. In Tolstoy’s face and on his clothes you can also see traces of the halftone dots – they first look like film grain, but IMHO their arrangement is far too regular for film grain, so I guess these are halftone dots. (Sorry if my explanation is unclear – I did not find a dictionary which provides exact English equivalents of the German technical terms I am used to, and Google & Cº do not know these words, too.) --Aristeas (talk) 09:05, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The German language has a lot of specific words connected to printing that don't exist in other languages. However In this case, I made a guess that this might be called something like 'rosetting' in English and lo and behold: Rosette, this picture is a good explanation for it.. --Cart (talk) 09:25, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, exactly. In the Tolstoy image the Rosettenbildung is not as prominent as in the cited explanation because the halftone dots have been smoothed after scanning, but in the bright parts of the background you can find the same rhombus structure, similar to an unsharp wire netting. Thank you very much, Cart! --Aristeas (talk) 09:37, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This is my attempt to introduce another modern photography style we haven't seen here on FPC before. The idea is to borrow the light and composition style from old still-life paintings, preferably 17th-century Dutch paintings. Many of those paintings of food depicted it as if the meal was in progress. This was a technique they had to show that is was a painting of a fleeting moment, and that everything in life is transient. --Cart (talk) 07:41, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is not 'food depicted it as if the meal was in progress'. Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:02, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's probably a good thing I didn't go "all in" with the symbolism in those paintings. The painters also included flies, maggots, skulls, small clocks, etc. as symbols of Memento mori and Tempus fugit that were popular back then. :-) --Cart (talk) 08:25, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose A featurable image? The resolution is high indeed, but that's probably the only advantage. The picture is claimed to be a focus stack, but honestly I don't see much difference in focus range in relation to a center-focused single shot. If you zoom in to full size, you see stitching errors at the lower part of the blossom. Furthermore some white parts of the flower are overexposed, there is noise, the background is not appealing. The flower is neither well identified nor well categorized. Compare the already FP image of similar flower. --A.Savin 14:45, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I cropped the photo a bit, corrected some mistakes, I don't see any noise,I do not see overexposure and it is definitely not the same as a single shot. Thank you--Co mmon ists 15:11, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Service: [5] --A.Savin 17:46, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

To clarify, "Service" here means that you are invited to examine your photo at full size (100%); that way you can see some of the errors that people are talking about. I've compiled some files for you for clarification. In Lightroom there is a function where any overexposed parts in a photo are shown as red. Take a look at the first photo in the link and you'll see the red that shows up in your photo. As for the stacking errors, they are not the ordinary misaligned parts that show up in stitched photo, instead they are areas that should have been crisp and sharp, but where the program has missed and has used a soft/blurry photo. I have marked some of these areas with blue in the linked file. Hope this makes it easier for you to understand that critique. --Cart (talk) 18:34, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Considering the small size of the animal, ~~this lens probably reached its limit and couldn't go further~~. Thus, this is a crop which reduced the resolution, IMO, rather than a downsizing -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:43, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have not insulted anyone Cart. And anyway, I think a photo should have the whole subject if it is put in the description. Plus you have to ping it if you want me to read it. I was speaking in a general way, if someone feels offended I'm sorry, it was just disappointment about this photo, not personal criticism or as a photographer. I humbly apologise. I did not mean to be offensive. Greetings.--Co mmon ists 18:44, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok Commonists, apologies are a good thing. Next time you are disappointed, just take a few deep breaths before you write. Also, consider yourself one of the gang here; we don't always 'ping' those we know are going to be around the page anyway. :-) --Cart (talk) 18:59, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This photo isn't a documentary photo of the entire span of one bridge; it's a photo showing a view of 3 bridges plus clouds. I don't understand the rigidity that we sometimes see here, that a photo that includes x must always include the a, b, and c parts of x, no matter what. Even ignoring the fact that conservatism is at odds with the previous century+ of avant-garde art, have cityscape painters, even academic ones, traditionally followed rigid rules of this type? We so often see crops cited as a dealbreaker here, whereas painters constantly crop anything and everything from their views. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:02, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment And here I was, thinking the panorama would look more harmonious if it was cropped even more on the left side. See note. So hard to make a photo to please everybody here. --Cart (talk) 16:33, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Seems the image is distorted (skewed), this is most visible on the left hand side where the rectangular buildings look more rhomboid. Another issue are the shadows; these just look weird. There must have been some shadow detail recovery black magic because the Manhattan Birdge, which is quite a bit darker, is lighter in shade than the shadows on the Brooklyn Bridge's light bricks. Another area to spot irregularities is on the right pillar of the BB where there are very deep shadows on the towers, not seen elsewhere, but also the shade below the deck gets progressively lighter going from right to left. -- KennyOMG (talk) 17:12, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

At least the differences in light and shadows is no mystery for anyone who has done a very large structure panorama on a partially cloudy day, like here. You start at one end with one sort of light and while you move the camera for photos, the clouds move as well. When you get to the other end, the light is completely different and the camera has changed the exposure with it. It's a nightmare. You can correct some of this by matching the exposures in most panorama programs, but that will not fix all of it since so much else change with the light too. Clouds are nice in the background, but for panos with more than three frames, be sure to check the sky behind you. I am not surprised that the clouds played around with you, illuminating this and that randomly from shot to shot when taking on such a big project. (My version, trying to fix some of that + the tilt, to give you an idea.) --Cart (talk) 17:52, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done Thanks for helping me out, here. I like your tilt correction & adjustments. Replicated that on the original. --Axel ^(talk) 02:24, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The change in light/shadow is due to Manhattan skyline: Each building's shadow is progressing from left to right. There are no sharp edges due to the distance. The rare thing here is the cloud formation. --Axel ^(talk) 01:21, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I can imagine the difficulties, skyscrapers are just as bad as clouds when it comes to ruining the light for you. --Cart (talk) 08:35, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Info There is already a similar FP of the same building made by the same photographer. But despite the similar perspective, the two photos have a very different character; the light makes the difference. In this shot, it creates the hard triangular shadows that vary harmoniously because of the curvature of the façade.

I think F5.6 instead of F10 would change total DoF from about 7m to 4m, i.e. 1/2 that for the background. You wouldn't see the difference would you? For my 'ready to go' hand-held settings, I preset 1/1000 sec and ISO 800 (or 400 if very sunny) and the camera chooses F number to suit light available. In this case we were driving on a public road, the busy Transpantaneira Highway. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:38, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure you already know this, but in order to get a creamy and less distracting background, you either have to use a longer focal length, move closer to the subject, or increase the distance between the subject and the background.

Having a famous statue by Rodin at the musée Rodin seems entirely appropriate to me. 'Mooning' is a trite and sexist observation. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:12, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support after Cart's comment . Daniel Case (talk) 15:35, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral Overall a good view of the building. The technical quality (sharpness, exposure etc.) is not perfect, but good; the perspective has not been corrected completely. The light is OK, but a bit harsh. The photo would be better without the people, but there are only few of them and they do not hide important features. And, yes, when the sculpture is almost centered it would be better if it was centered completely. --Aristeas (talk) 19:24, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sharpness issue per Llez, and though the scene is nice, the wow is limited on my side. Especially the you-don’t know-what-it’s-from shadow makes the composition a bit cluttered, as well as the cut tree on the left. The château (which is considered the main subject due to the file name) is hardly visible. --Kreuz schnabel 17:09, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose interesting building, but it's not quite presented in a way that would make me go "WOW". I do like how the direction of light makes the "tower" (stairwell?) look very … 3D. But the tree somewhat disturbs the brutalist experience, and I think I'd like to see more of the building on the right. —13:31, 29 June 2021 (UTC)~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by El Grafo (talk • contribs)

@Martin Falbisoner: Yeah, stupid reality everywhere … ;-) If you ever get the chance for taking another shot of (more or less) just the stairwell under similar light, I'd love to see that!

~~Support~~ thanks Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:22, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ivar, I think the square crop should be uploaded to another file and then made an Alt. You may own the nomination but you don't own the image. COM:OVERWRITE only permits minor crops to fix mistakes or remove something unwanted from the scene. I think JJ Harrison is an experienced enough photographer to judge their own preferred crop at upload. While a wide crop may seem weaker or unnecessary, it can increase the utility of the image for re-users, who are then free to crop any way they like or to add text on the featureless parts of the image. -- Colin (talk) 21:01, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I actually agree with Colin. I don't like people cropping my images. Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:49, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ivar, I'm a bit frustrated there was no response to this. This is an official guideline on Commons, not just my personal opinion, and should be respected. I've reverted the edit to the file per COM:OVERWRITE. I see elsewhere at FPC also, we seem to have got into a bit of a habit of mucking about with other people's photos when making nominations, either without asking, or in conversations off-wiki unknown to other revewers. A free licence allows one to make one's own derivative work or a crop elsewhere. Overwriting is too much like altering an author's own work and then claiming that's what they should have uploaded instead if only they'd had your talent/software/eye. It's a bit rude. Please create another file for the square crop (using the lossless crop facility on Commons) and alt for this nomination: the guideline does not permit further reverts as contested alterations must be done on another file. -- Colin (talk) 07:39, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Colin @Colin: I agree with you points on overwrites, but please don't repeat the unfounded accusation that I have had conversations off-wiki. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:57, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative[edit]

Info Created by JJ Harrison - cropped & uploaded by Ivar
Ivar had the good manners to withdraw the extra nom for this photo, but since a lot of the voters expressed a desire for a crop, it's only fair that it is added as an alternative. I'm 'pinging' previous voters so they have a chance to vote on their favorite version:

Charlesjsharp, Famberhorst, Martin Falbisoner, GRDN711, Daniel Case, Michielverbeek, Axel, Lmbuga, Buidhe, Aristeas, IamMM, Agnes Monkelbaan and Ikan Kekek. --Cart (talk) 11:09, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question Cart, I like each of them for their own reasons, can I add my support for the alternative without striking my support for the other picture? --Axel ^(talk) 19:36, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Axel: Yes, of course you can. I think some other voters have done that already, and it often happens on nominations with 'Alt'. In the end, the one with the most support votes win. --Cart (talk) 20:15, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. The nomination is not accurate. JJ Harrison did not upload this file, which is not his version of the photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:40, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question OK, what's the rule? Do we consider this file to be created by JJ Harrison, by Ivar, or by both? I suppose on the same basis that edits have been done to works by people who were on Commons only during some year's Wiki Loves Monuments or whatever, it's legitimate to edit this work on the basis that Mr. Harrison hasn't been on Commons since December 27. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:56, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment author of this image is still JJ Harrison, I don't understand your objection. --Ivar (talk) 09:01, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I asked a question. Do you mean to tell me you don't understand my question? Apparently you did, since you answered it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:06, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment of course it's legitimate to edit according to the license: CC BY: This license allows reusers to distribute, remix, adapt, and build upon the material in any medium or format, so long as attribution is given to the creator. --Ivar (talk) 09:12, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(Edit conflict) A way that has been done before is to just add one more step to the 'Info' line. In this case it could say: "created by JJ Harrison - cropped, uploaded & nominated by Ivar". That way everything is clear. --Cart (talk) 09:14, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment With these two versions of the same photo in two different noms, we might now head towards a situation where both versions can be promoted and that's not allowed according to the rules. One of the photos should be an 'Alternative' to the other on the same nom. Could the nominators Ikan Kekek and Ivar sort this out. Or even better, both of you withdraw both noms and one of you create a new nom with the original and the crop for people to vote on properly. --Cart (talk) 09:33, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cart other nomination is imo not valid, since nobody voted for last version and it was unwithrawn by force, against the will of original nominator. --Ivar (talk) 10:04, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, regardless of who started what, when or why, the mess exists now and it needs to be sorted out so the voting can move forward. A new nom might be the easiest way for voters. --Cart (talk) 10:20, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
