•  Comment The background confuses me. On one hand, it looks physical and not digital, on the other hand, it's basically a huge display or enlarged jpeg compression artifacts. Can someone help me understand this? — Julian H.^✈ 09:48, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
  • @Julian Herzog: Some texture is still visible because I think was applied a filter "Gaussian blur", "blur form" or maybe simply anti noise at its maximum in some areas, specialy top and side, but not at the whole background. That said it's suppositions. --Christian Ferrer (talk) 08:25, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
  • @Julian Herzog: I see it resembles paintings.Thank you
    • I'm not talking about any small-size detail, the artifacts I am referring to are visible in the thumbnail here. It's like a 100x100 pixel file was scaled up to fill the whole background. — Julian H.^✈ 08:32, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
      • @Julian Herzog: Pushed very far the filters I was talking about can do these kind of thing, sometimes only visible at preview and not at full resolution. They are degraded (en:Color gradient) pixel which can not be seen at full resolution due to a filter that smoothes, but can been seen from "far". --Christian Ferrer (talk) 10:07, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
        • @Christian Ferrer: Hm, I don't see how any blur algorithm can lead to ringing and macroblocking. — Julian H.^✈ 10:17, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
          • @Julian Herzog: For macro photo, I used or tried sometimes this kind of filter, and already have had this kind results, this is why I think it's similar here but of course I'm not sure at 100%. The fact of flattering with a filter, forces each pixel to harmonize with those next, this causes a spreading and as a pixel merger. If you push it further you will start obtain banding, and if you push even further you will start to obtain on the image big simple geometric shapes (big banding, squares (giant pixels? :), rectangles). My theory. --Christian Ferrer (talk) 10:39, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
• I looked at it carefully again and again; to me, these are DCT artifacts —  Oppose on that basis. — Julian H.^✈ 13:48, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
•  Support I let my heart speaking. I like it.--Jebulon (talk) 19:07, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
•  Question The background appears to be a patterned glass table. Is this assumption correct? Daniel Case (talk) 00:51, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
  • @Daniel Case: Possibly --ديفيد عادل وهبة خليل 2 (talk) 07:07, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose Poor retouch and fake background --The Photographer (talk) 12:47, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose In my opinion the green colours in the image are oversaturated. 19:58, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose Colours look unnatural. --Tremonist (talk) 15:34, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
