  •  Comment I've been staring at this for a while now, feeling that something was off about the contrast. I was not sure what it was, and I still am not 100% certain. Looking at the original helped a bit though. The original is a very high contrast image, where large parts of the subject are quite dark due to the direction of the sun relative to the ship. In the retouched version, the shadows have been brightened a bit, making things a bit more visible. But somehow, my brain refuses to find this realistic or credible, possibly because there is still so much evidence for hard shadows around. Given that brightening the shadows did not actually reveal anything new in the image, I'd very much prefer the unaltered original (minus the dust spots). However, I'd still not vote for it, because in my opinion, it is not a particularly stunning photograph to start with. --El Grafo (talk) 12:49, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
As the first thing I did after the computer switch, I fear what's uploaded is what's available. Adam Cuerden (talk) 07:15, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
