Frontenac Hotel, Quebec ville
I guess you're right, I should have raised the ISO and added more depth of field, however, raising the ISO would degrade the gold color. The ideal would have been a tripod, but it was not allowed --Wilfredor (talk) 20:08, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't doubt that this was the best you could do. But just as some subjects are never meant to become FP due to being boring, other subjects are never meant to become FP because taking a high-quality photo of them is not allowed. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:49, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Pity. I have to agree with KoH. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:17, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Wilfredor, one technique I find useful for these situations is focus stacking. With a couple of images (e.g. one focused at 2m and another one at 5m, [1]) you should be able to get the entire hall in focus. I see you use Lightroom, so you can perhaps resort to Photoshop to stack the images. Photoshop sucks at large focus stacks but deals very well with small ones, even if there's a bit of movement between shots from hand holding the camera. --Julesvernex2 (talk) 10:31, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose This is a very beautiful interior, but I don't think the quality makes it through as FP. I'm quite sure this place would require a tripod, and understand that such device may have been out of question. The settings being used seem like a reasonable compromise, so we can enjoy atleast some sort of pictures of this place. I don't know if I would have done anything differently in these difficult circumstances, other than maybe played with higher ISO and aperture... --Ximonic (talk) 14:36, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Regretful oppose per others. With so much done right here colorwise, it's a true shame this could not be taken on a tripod and thus get the DoF it deserves. Daniel Case (talk) 21:12, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
