Request Could you provide a full resolution scan? Regards, Peter Weis (talk) 19:50, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
- This photo is 32 years old. I made it in July 1980 with my camera model Olympus OM-1 on the color-slide-film Kodachrome 24. The OM 1 is famous: she is 2012 digitally remastered as Olympus OM-D E-M5. Kodachrome 25 is the trademarked name of a brand of slide film with 25 ASA sold by Eastman Kodak. When stored in darkness, Kodachromes long-term stability under ordinary conditions is superior to other types of color slide film; images on Kodachrome 25 slides over fifty years old retain accurate color and density. But every film has grain, also the Kodachrome 25. The digitally scan leaves the grain on the digitally remastered image. I can provide a full resolution scan, but the image in the large resolution is noisy. The full removal of grain destroys the sharpness of the image. The only way to show the scanned image without grain is to reduce the resolution. I know: Commons don't like noisy images. --Michael Gäbler (talk) 21:49, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
- I'm well aware of this ridiculous idiosyncrasy. After noticing the image description and the scanner, I thought providing a full resolution scan would be great if available, at least for the few film camera aficionados out there. This downsampled version has little to do with representing the aura of the original. Sadly even the Nikon Coolscan V ED, which is a great scanner, is unable to mimic the quality of the original. I don't think it's Commons that does not like noisy images, I think it's the community. Regards, Peter Weis (talk) 21:21, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Oppose Nice composition but low resolution & mountains are monotonous in hue, --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 11:21, 28 July 2012 (UTC)- Support great image, we don't need a pixel monster --Wladyslaw (talk) 21:12, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

- Carschten, I reduced the saturation. The green colour is now really. Please check the photo. --Michael Gäbler (talk) 22:53, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks, looks more realistic now. Still not 100% convinced about the colours (perhaps due to the scan, don't know), so
