•  Info Crispy sharp picture shot with a tripod, F/8, ISO 50, professional lens and camera. This one was sharp too -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:33, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment Have another look, Basile, it does not look crispy sharp to me. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:41, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

• Charles J Sharp, sharp like your honeycomb I think. If not "crispy" then normally sharp. But look, you have two nominations currently, this honeycomb measuring 3,415 × 3,415 pixels, and a moth sized 4,422 × 2,948 pixels. Your buzzard archived yesterday measured 2,600 x 4,000 pixels, and your chameleon last week 3,785 × 2,523 pixels. Now this is how detailed this landscape appears when downsized or cropped to 4'422 px large, like the biggest of your 4 last candidatures. The autofocus was set, certainly the limit of the camera was reached. More sharpness would mean over-sharpened in my opinion -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:16, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

• I was reacting to your dismissing the oppose vote with the 'crispy' adjective. I wouldn't dream of comparing the absolute sharpness of my hand-held photos using a enthusiast-level crop-frame body and a hand-held 400mm lens in average light conditions with your professional-level full-frame body and tripod with the option of testing out various settings.

•  Support Good composition and exposure, and a nice sense of depth delivered by the low angle of the sun. Detail is sharp at full screen (34" 4K) and sufficient at 100%. The clouds and the colours and the rugged terrain make for a striking scene. --Bobulous (talk) 19:36, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
