Info created by ggia - uploaded by ggia - nominated by ggia -- Ggia (talk) 18:36, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
Support -- Ggia (talk) 18:36, 19 October 2011 (UTC)- Info the color-cast (on the rocks and the beach) is due to the sunset. No manipulation of the colors (saturation) has been applied. Ggia (talk) 18:39, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
- Support nice colors -- George Chernilevsky talk 17:41, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
Comment -- I believe the coloring is not manipulated because the author said so. But did it really looked like this to our eyes when the shot was done? We all know how the white balance of our cameras can, and are, frequently fooled by anormal lighting. Yes, it is beautiful and I would prompltly support the nomination if this were an artsy contest. But it is not. Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:58, 21 October 2011 (UTC)- Info if you assume bad faith I can give publish one of the NEF files (raw data) that this panorama is made off.

- Language is indeed tricky (and human brain even more). The first thing I said was precisely that I believed in the author's words! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 09:36, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
- It is not an arty contest. It has some encyclopedic information this image. Since you don't like it, why don't you oppose? If an image has poor lighting you don't like.. if it has a good lighting (like this one).. you don't like it because it is "arty". This image is not an minimal-abstract image for an arty contest. And as you know I never upload images without EV. I suggest to oppose this image and finish this discussion here. Ggia (talk) 13:39, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

Same beach different time of the year - lighting (April). -
Another view of the rocks (April).
One NEF file (raw data from camera) the images that this panorama is made of is here - as you can see the colors are due to the lighting conditions (sunset - autumn colors etc). Ggia (talk) 14:42, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
- Comment For three times in a row my assessments to Ggia nominations were commented using expressions and arguments that I consider displaced, inelegant or both. In the nomination below, the review was ignored in a way that can only be classified as bad manners; above, it was suggested that I have acted in bad faith even though I was careful enough to show that was not the case; and in the previous comment, I am suggested to finish the discussion because I’m not consistent in my reviews. In all these unfortunate comments nowhere the technical arguments and suggestions (for example, the one about the camera’s limitations) are addressed directly. Not a pleasant welcome for someone who has been way for some time... I’m always direct in my assessments, sometimes harsh, but I base them in a careful analysis of the images and never, ever, make comments about their nominators. Unfortunately the opposite is not always true. Alvesgaspar (talk) 18:38, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
- Support Lighting and colours look beautiful and reasonable to me. --99of9 (talk) 11:02, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Oppose As beautiful as the left 1/3 of the image is, the rest of it is not. Perhaps a panoramic view from offshore would've been more engaging to the eye as a whole. I love the richness of color on the cliffs, but too much of the photo is uninteresting. As for the value of this image, I'm wondering what it is. A circumspect opposition.
