Oppose Most of the flower is out of focus. INeverCry 18:36, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
Support Focus and DoF were chosen very well. --Code (talk) 21:32, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
Oppose per INeverCry. I disagree with Code on the DoF - I think it should have been a bit deeper, in order to get more of the picture in focus. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:11, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- The f/8 choice is intentional to maximize resolution/sharpness at the focus point while making a perfectly useful image. -- Ram-Man 02:23, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- I didn't suggest you made an unintentional choice; I simply disagree with it. And even to the extent this photo is "perfectly usable", that's not the standard for featuring a picture. That criterion is more relevant to a Valued Image. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:33, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- I think this has more wow than the alternative. It's been so long since I've nominated here, I forgot about this trend against lower depth of field. (see this vs. this) -- Ram-Man 11:29, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- You have an alternative? What's the alternative? Thanks for linking those two coneflower pictures. I agree with the ratings - the one in which the stem is clear appeals to me more. But it's all a matter of taste. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:45, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- I didn't bother. It's time consuming taking extra f/13 shots just for FPs. I was hoping things might have changed after so many years. But no. -- Ram-Man 16:03, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
- I've been looking at your shots of locomotives and such. They're very interesting. Perhaps one of those might be good to nominate. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:14, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- Maybe, but I don't know which! -- Ram-Man 01:03, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not sure, either. I'll keep looking, though. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
