•  Info Church of St Sebastian, Ponta Delgada, São Miguel Island, Azores, Portugal. The church, built between 1531 and 1547, is one of the landmarks of the capital of the island. I propose these images as a set because I believe that each of them deserves the FP star alone and because the set depicts this beautiful church from different viewpoints giving a comprehensive view of it (3rd criteria "A group of images depicting the same subject from different viewpoints"). Note that there is already a closer look of the high altar that became FP and could have been added to this set. c/u/n by me, Poco a poco (talk) 09:25, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment Interested to see how this set is interpreted. For me, the images, high quality as they are, do not depict 'the same subject from different viewpoints'. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:30, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

  The subject is the church and I offer different view of parts of it Poco a poco (talk) 18:15, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment In the exterior image there is a car that is distracting and the "General view of the interior." there is a problem of distortion of the verticals, the upper part is stretched towards the sides (check the verticality of the columns) --Wilfredor (talk) 12:53, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

• Wilfredor: I reworked the image of the exterior view: the van is gone, I also improved the verticals. I've also made some adjusments of the interior view and added one additional image of the interior looking from the altar back to the entrance. Poco a poco (talk) 18:15, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

Almost everything is fine but "General view of the nave back from the altar." has the same problem now fixed in "General view of the interior.", please, fix it too and I will support it. Thanks --Wilfredor (talk) 21:06, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

• Wilfredor: I had already anticipated this feedback and rework the second interior image before I added it to the set, but I made now some additional adjustments. --Poco a poco (talk) 09:16, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Sigo observando el problema de las columnas en "General view of the nave back from the altar.", la parte superior de las columnas esta inclinada hacia afuera, esto es fácilmente corregible usando las guías en Photoshop. --Wilfredor (talk) 15:28, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Wilfredor: ¿¿cómo lo ves ahora?? si sigo sin atinar, ¿podrías añadir una nota? Poco a poco (talk) 18:09, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

 Support IMHO Good now --Wilfredor (talk) 19:04, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment Distortion quite strong on the first image, looks like the tower is falling down. --Ivar (talk) 12:58, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

• Ivar: I readjusted the perspective of the tower Poco a poco (talk) 18:15, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment Imho it's not fixable, because shooting point was too close to the church. --Ivar (talk) 18:25, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

• I was Ivar, indeed as far as I could and I also took the side further from the tower. The church is in the middle of the city and there are usually tons of people walking around specially visiting bars or restaurants nearby. I could manage this shot without people thank you patience and COVID-19. Poco a poco (talk) 18:39, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment Amazing images, on the whole. I really like all three interior views and I think they should definitely be FP. The exterior isn't so clear for me, the van is distracting and I agree with Ivar that the tower looks like it's falling backwards. Cmao20 (talk) 13:57, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

• Cmao20: as mentioned above I addressed the mentioned issues of the external image Poco a poco (talk) 18:15, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Support Thanks, I mean honestly it's an amazing set and I'm not going to quibble any further. Cmao20 (talk) 21:04, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment The last two photos are unreservedly FPs to me. I'm not as sure about the rest. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:35, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
•  Comment I like all the photos and IMHO at least the first (now) and the two last really deserve the star, but I am not sure about the set idea. --Aristeas (talk) 09:33, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Support OK, looking again at it. The photos are really good, and maybe I just need to think again about the meaning of a set ;–). --Aristeas (talk) 09:32, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment The black point should be made more intense, especially on the first image which looks washed out. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 15:40, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

  @King of Hearts: I've adjusted the darker areas, please, have a look Poco a poco (talk) 19:40, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
