Question Is this a night shot? --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 02:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Overprocessed? Underexposed? ★ 03:14, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Whatever it is, somehting looks off with the light and colours. I would rule out a night shot because of the shadows. Kritzolina (talk) 14:49, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- It was taken at 12:30, so… ★ 21:45, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Looking at the shadows, I think the timestamp might not be correct, but we can't be sure Kritzolina (talk) 04:46, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- The timestamp for the light and everything seem totally fine to me (perhaps a bit underexposed), considering how low and weak the sun is up here in the north in winter. Compare with this taken at 12:20 at roughly about the same latitude and the same number of days away from the winter solstice. This is the light we get at noon for about three months each year (no wonder we invented Nordic noir ;-) ). People often marvel at our midnight sun here in the summer, but rarely think about the other side of the coin: the midday darkness in winter. 'Pinging' those with questions, Frank Schulenburg, ArionStar, Kritzolina. --Cart (talk) 09:03, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the explanation ... I will think about this one for a bit now. Kritzolina (talk) 09:27, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- If I photographed this, I would boost the light a bit to this to get a better photo in the end (feel free to use if you want to). It's more like what the eye would perceive. --Cart (talk) 09:54, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Oppose but the vignetting blew it --Zzzs (talk) 08:01, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
Support thanks to Cart’s explanation. The snow-covered trees look like bizarre sculptures. – Aristeas (talk) 08:21, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
