Black kite (Milvus migrans affinis) over Adelaide River, The Northern Territory, Australia
Interesting. I thought I saw what you say, but checking with Photoshop's color picker, I can't find any shadow. The sky has not been locally lightened. Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:44, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Could it be a matter of local treatment, like brush associated with highlights and /or shadows? When I pick up the colors locally to compare different locations, it appears that this zone of the sky around the bird (especially above) is slightly darker than elsewhere. By the way, color space is reported "uncalibrated" -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:53, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
sRGB assigned. Sky higher up is usually a bit darker. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:26, 25 January 2024 (UTC) Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:25, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Very good, but there is what looks like a little shadow next to the feathers that hang pretty much straight down in the center of the picture below the bird's head. Please discuss that. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:28, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I can't find a shadow Ikan Kekek but have touched up the usual 'halo' around the hanging feather slightly in a new version. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:54, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wheatfield with Crows, 1890 painting by Vincent van Gogh.
  • Clearly different colors when the 2 images are superimposed for comparison. The original blue is not an electric blue but a much warmer tint, kind of Persian blue / Persian indigo. It has an impact on the mood. Quality of the file is good, but I think the colors have been modified too much from the original version.
Moreover, when increasing the exposure on Photoshop, the colors remain accurate. I don't know which process has been made here, but temperature and saturation seem wrong.
The original version (archived) from the Van Gogh Museum is here. Although dark, it is very likely that the light calibration is relevant, and the difference is huge. I don't find good to overwrite the original picture by an arbitrary version, so different. At the very least it should have been done under a different file name.
The original picture is not a RAW but a JPG. It means that if you alter the luminosity, you are modifying fixed colors (not flexible). The more important the change is, the more damaged are the nuances of the palette. Non-artistic files, like graphics or tables, can be improved that way, but hardly art pieces, where subtle colors are essential and skillfully designed by sensible artists -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:37, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Brightening, lightening, or whatever tool was applied here, has resulted in oversaturated colors because the JPG colors were pushed excessively. To verify, you can try this simple test on your computer: take a RAW photograph, then convert it in JPG. Afterwards, increase the light of both images, the RAW and the JPG separately, then you'll notice a significant difference in the saturation of the colors. The RAW will seem plausible, while the JPG will appear unnatural -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:42, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Another painting also made by Van Gogh, was uploaded the same day from the same official website. The exposure is okay, suggesting that there might be a valid reason to present this version of the painting, rather than a bright one. Very possibly the original artwork is composed of dark colors on the canvas. -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:56, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Basilica of Saint Sermin, Toulouse, France
  • I don't think I am being biased. I have opposed plenty of Poco's nominations in the past including one this month. I think this is pretty harsh though, being really honest (nothing personal, I love your work!). Some churches just are quite dark and at 5:49pm in winter, this is very likely to be pretty accurate to the actual lighting. And as for off centre, the church itself is clearly 'off centre' in that the centre aisle does not line up with the altar. Maybe that precludes the photo from FP for you, but it is not the fault of the photographer. In an asymmetric building one has to choose something to be centred at the cost of other things, I guess.

Royal Monastery of San Juan de la Peña, Huesca, Spain
  • Ikan Kekek, the language of the Mass would have still been Latin, but the liturgical rite used would not have been the 'Latin Mass'. 'Latin Mass' is a particular form of the liturgy that was common in Western Europe but was not universally imposed until the papal bull Quo Primum in 1570, which imposed the Latin 'Tridentine' Mass across the Western church until 1970 when Vatican II allowed individual churches to move to the vernacular. Before 1570, most churches in Spain - evidently not this one, probably because of the Benedictine connection in this case - used something called the Hispanic Rite of the Mass, which was longer than the Latin Rite and a bit more 'interactive'; it included lots of responsories between the priest and the congregation. The Hispanic Rite is still celebrated regularly in Toledo Cathedral because there was a lot of seventeenth century interest in protecting its survival.

Red clouds over Mekong banks with dwellings and pirogues at sunrise in Don Det Laos
  • Yes it is HDR photography taken from 3 images in bracketing mode at different exposures +/-2EV. The shadows of the foreground have been lifted to reveal more details. It is intentional to avoid black silhouettes (due to contrejour and high contrast), and also to highlight the content I find interesting, in addition to the clouds. Thanks for your comment -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:51, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • ✓ Done Thanks. Here lifting the shadows was part of the HDR process. Otherwise they're really very strong with the sun in front, and not faithful to what the eyes see in reality. It depends on which software you use, and it can even be done instantly by the camera -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:15, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Info Thanks everyone for the feedbacks and suggestions. There are different tastes in this group. It seems that Rhododendrites likes the shadows reduced and Laitche on the contrary lifted, with the exposure slightly decreased. Still no major difference in the saturation of the colors in my view. But the current version is a faithful representation of the sky that morning, and I don't want to create a fiction. The intensity of exposure is arguable, but more a matter of taste in my opinion. Thus I keep the current settings. Thanks -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:06, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Addendum: @Cmao20, Yann, Ezarate, and Charlesjsharp: I have just prepared a re-retouched version, provided via SwissTransfer, in which I have removed various scratches and lint in the following parts: Neck, headdress, chin, wall, dress, sleeves as well as the dog's muzzle, chest and paw. @Hohum: Please take a look at the edit, if you think this is an improvement, feel free to upload it. Apologies for the ping, but if it's for the sake of improvement, it's certainly appropriate. Thanks in advance and best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 13:10, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for the attentive hint, Ikan. I also noticed the supposed watermark during the retouching. I can only assume that there was some writing on the wall that wasn't removed carefully enough before the wall was repainted. It can also be seen on the original Library of Congress photo. Since this is most likely the current state at the time the photo was taken, it is simply part of the scenery depicted in the photo. There is another photo from this series in which the overpainted writing is faintly recognizable upon closer inspection. Further down this photograph, you can see other white lettering that has not been overpainted. So it probably wasn't a real wall, but an event stand or a theater or concert poster made of wood or sturdy cardboard. -- Radomianin (talk) 13:44, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It makes the aspect a bit weird, giving the impression that the photo has been manipulated, which is not false, with focus stacking, but usually the technical process is invisible -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:44, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Carved wooden bench furniture and crafts at Heuan Chan heritage house in Luang Prabang Laos
  • Your links are not to triangle cushions. I would be surprised to find a triangle cushion anywhere near a massage table. But the real point is whether an image showing crafts from Laos should feature a modern cushion of Thai design? Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:56, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Laos and Thailand were a single country until 1893. Almost the same language and the cultural similarities are numerous. These triangular cushions are very old, already represented in ancient paintings. So it's quite normal to find such traditional cushions in a Laotian house. Nike shoes are American even if they are made in China. These cushions are inherited from the kingdom of Siam (including Laos) and typical from the area. Maybe the petrol lamps are made in Vietnam or Cambodia, but they are also widespread here. So finding all these elements together is not really surprising, and is even certainly intentional -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:52, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Weak oppose It is very rare that I oppose one of your nominations but although this is an attractive, well-framed image, I am not convinced that the detail is sufficient for FP especially considering the large size of this species.

Muhammad Ali
  • I repeat: there is no such rule as "We should not crop historical images." This should be evaluated on case by case basis. And as I explain below, it is a wrong argument here. But giving real valid arguments is much more difficult than false pretexts. Yann (talk) 15:20, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • You have your opinion, and he has his. I don't know why that's hard for you to accept, but I'm done here. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:48, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • English is not my mother tongue but I learnt at school that "should" and "must" have different meanings. Nevertheless, in any case, it's just an opinion which is expressed here. And everybody are entitled to have one. I agree with Ikan, Charles and Frank. Considering we should not alter masterpieces, or delete essential elements of a photo, or change the artist's composition, is a very valid point of view -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:06, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Frank Schulenburg: Historical images are altered all the time. They are restored, and many decisions have to be taken about colors, how much restoration should be done, etc. In addition, it doesn't make sense here because this is not scanned from a print. This is a slide, which was never printed as it is. Whoever may have printed it did alter it one way or another, at least cropping the black borders. Yann (talk) 17:55, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support: clearly superior composition compared to the original. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 19:18, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support --MZaplotnik(talk) 15:46, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Strong oppose This photo is the work of a famous photographer called Bernard Gotfryd. It is not Bernard Gotfryd's artwork cropped by User:Yann, it is just Bernard Gotfryd's artwork. If this photographer is famous, it's perhaps because of the competence in his sector? And there might be also a reason why the author chose to frame his subject this way? A reason why the picture has become famous this way? Empty space has immediately an impact on the viewer. It's not just a head, it's a head with the eyes looking up and a generous space above in the same direction, suggesting like an aura. Essential in the representation of Muhammad Ali. There is freedom, lead room, evoked over this head.
This iconic picture is a historical document, found in the Library and Congress. Perhaps also exposed in museums, sold in auctions, etc. An iconic photograph only contains important details, and is well-known for the special ratio immediately recognizable (3:2, 4:3, 16:9, golden ratio, or else). You don't cut Piet Mondrian abstract painting because there is too much red for your taste, and similarly you don't cut the iconic picture of a famous photographer even if you don't understand the artist's choice -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:06, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • This seems essentially a straw-man argument. Have you even look at the source? I think I have respected the photographer's intent (no crop on the left), and only cropped the distractive element. That's what is done in every cases. And again, as I said above, this is a slide, and was never printed that way. Yann (talk) 11:10, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • To be featured, this picture should be able to illustrate 1) Muhammad Ali and 2) Bernard Gotfryd's work. The educational value is much higher when you can show how talented photographers compose their portraits. Moreover, the impact is more fascinating with space above, than without. And the original 3:2 ratio also has more meaning than this weird and arbitrary 1.22:1 format. There are historians who can be interested in the original document, and photographers interested in studying the author's style. Other photos by the same photographer reveal similar compositions, which suggests that this style is an integral part of the personality. Composition, like light, is not a minor element in photography, it is essential -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:30, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment The crop seems like uneasy compromise between the tight edit like this and the original slide minus the borders. You can still see part of the human figure on the right and there is too much space above for a portrait photo. --Thi (talk) 22:49, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support JukoFF (talk) 22:33, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment i see know situation here similar as on En.Wiki, but there beter photo is overwriten and at least here is seperate nom. Check please there. Second picture is best by far, and Yann made mistake while talking about new big resolution while its much less detailed than on 2nd version. If doing that, Yann should not Overwrite "good" picture but do seperate nomination. JukoFF, talk, The Cosmonaut, Yann, Basile Morin, Frank Schulenburg... We must put protection on film photos, not to Overwrite them. Yann i think i will do revert there, we do no good with this. --Mile (talk) 12:09, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Petar, picture with M. Ali was not overwritten, it is here along with source TIFF, Yann uploaded retouched version as a separate file. To me, modifications are reasonable as source file is not a normal print-scan but a slide format. MZaplotnik(talk) 12:32, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Very good screen. According to the metadata, exposure compensation was -4/3, and only +0.4 in post-treatement. 1 EV missing in my opinion -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:46, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The meta doesn't provide much information here. underexposure is used here on purpose. Otherwise, there would have been overexposed areas that would have negatively affected the result when the picture was assembled later. (focus stacking was used when taking the photo) 185.193.63.210 07:30, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • It just gives a rational clue to understand the reason for this underexposure. Was it intentional? Alright. So probably blown highlights avoided on the RAW files. But in that case, the exposure should be corrected afterwards in post-process. Overall the result is currently too dark -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:44, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    In general, I don't understand why you think the result is too dark. Maybe we see the result differently for some reason? Have you viewed the image on another device? When processing the image, I trust only my eyes (I don't track any numbers anywhere), and in my opinion, the image is not too dark.
    In addition, it must be understood that this is a microscope photo. When photographing with a microscope, controlling the light is extremely difficult. Classic microscope light is not used for this photo. This is reflected light coming from the side. The light source is the camera flash. The light is diffused by about 2mm of white plastic. 185.193.63.210 10:13, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  1. It's not difficult to set the exposure when the RAW files are correct, and I don't see why it would not be possible in this case. There are similar pictures with correct brightness nominated in the past.
  2. If you read the comments of this page, perhaps you'll realize that other people also notice the same issue. So please, stop insisting on my device, saying my screen is wrong. Maybe your version is darker than it should.
  3. It's just my two cents and subjective opinion. So deal with it and accept diversity. That's a way to improve. Regards -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:39, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm just trying to figure out why the image is seen as too dark. I take into account that there are people who see the picture differently. But I still stand by my opinion - the picture is not dark on my screen and for my eyes. 185.193.63.210 10:49, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes we see it. By the way, I did not check the metadata before writing my comment. This constatation is just supporting my initial impression. (That's for your "numbers".)
The fact you don't see it's dark does not mean that you are right. And reciprocally of course (but it's not my picture).
See also this recent nomination that was fixed yesterday.
Apart from under-exposure, I agree with Charles about the possible focus stacking error (see image note). Very visible when light is adjusted . The background is darker at this spot, and that's a bit weird.
To finish, I would recommend you to login, so that your comments are properly signed by you (apparently photographer), instead of an anonymous IP -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:14, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay! What are we arguing about, it's pointless 🙃 I can't stack again because I don't keep all the frames. When the photo is ready, I delete the frames used in the stacking, because it is digital garbage that does not make sense to keep. I can't change the light either, because I can process the image according to how my monitor shows it. The picture looks ok on my monitor. 185.193.63.210 12:30, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Proof that archived pictures are not garbage is that you can't fix an error when it's lost.
Discussions about light are not pointless at FPC. Read COM:I section Underexposure.
Once again, please log in because malicious IP sometimes have fun trolling nominations here.  Question Do you have a good reason not to use your personal account? Further comments may be reverted too, to avoid identity usurpation. Thanks for your understanding -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:58, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I take about 1000-1500 photos in assta, each photo takes 20-200 frames, the size of each frame is about 20mb. Archiving all this would take up a lot of space. The chance that some of the images will need to be corrected is extremely small. This particular photo is the first in 12 years. In light of all this, filling memory space with frames that are almost never needed seems like a pointless waste of resources.
And I had a reason why I wasn't logged in - it was just more convenient 🙃 I have my passwords secured so that it is difficult for a stranger (where I am at the moment) to access them. I now had to struggle a bit to access my password. Janeklass (talk) 13:19, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Steve Jobs and Macintosh computer, January 1984
Anyone who wish to do so, is of course welcome to make their own version of this photo. However, per lots of discussions here, this version can't be overwritten, even by me, since it is a FP on en-Wiki with extracted images etc. used in many articles. I made it years ago to the best of my ability at the time and with the tools available back then. I didn't create it to be nominated anywhere, just wanted to see how the image looked after a bit of cleanup. No one is more surprised than me at the attention it has received since then. --Cart (talk) 17:58, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think that as the author of the development you can make an alt version based on the tiff and overwrite this photo. Thanks for the explain Wilfredor (talk) 20:12, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I could if I liked to. But, I'm really not that interested in this photo. And anyone who takes up the task will also find out that as soon as they attempt to brighten the photo, all the halos will become more visible due to the condition of the original. The LoCs tif that I used as a starting point for this image, is actually a museum grade scan of the original photo (as stated on their website) since the photographer donated his entire collection of photographs to the public to be kept in the care of LoC. So there is no point, Charles, going off searching for a better "original". I doubt that the LoC would allow a Wikipedian to do their own scan of the photo (1 photograph : color transparency ; 35mm (slide format)). There is an unfortunate big gap in the quality of documentary and portrait photographs between the often very sharp big early plates and the event of digital photography. We are so used to sharp color photos now, that we tend to forget how bad they were just 20-40 years ago. Only back then, we thought they were marvelous. --Cart (talk) 21:53, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your nutritious feedback Wilfredor (talk) 19:42, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I uploaded a new restored version, please, let me know what do you think Wilfredor (talk) 13:09, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It looks very clean, sleek, modern (as in not an 80s photo), and very AI. I will refer to what I wrote on another nom: link. --Cart (talk) 14:50, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good. So what do you want to do now? Propose an alternative (but there is only 5 days left), or wait until this nom. is over, and propose a replacement? Yann (talk) 16:35, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I successfully reproduced the issue with the red edge on the hands. This chromatic aberration occurs when trying to lift shadows in the TIFF file. Since there's no color detail in the TIFF, it results in a red border on the hands and other areas. I believe that due to the strong contrast in photos from that era, the shadows shouldn't be lifted as much. Regarding my photo, I agree (citing the restoration style that Christopher Nolan employed for the 4K version of "2001: A Space Odyssey"), but the "restoration" I'm undertaking is more akin to what James Cameron did with "Terminator 2" in 4K – a modern vision. My restoration aims to show how the scene actually looked at that moment, not how a photo taken in the 80s appeared. I'm not saying mine is the correct or incorrect approach, just highlighting the differences. Wilfredor (talk) 22:32, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In that case, the version should be labeled 'recreation' and not 'restoration', since you are not restoring the photo, but rather trying to recreate the scene. --Cart (talk) 09:47, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I better followed this discussion in the Wikipedia nomination in English so as not to repeat it. Wilfredor (talk) 14:25, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Very understandable. I think Yann may have been a bit hasty in starting the delist nom on en-wiki, before a consensus was reached here. It only split the discussion and complicated matters. --Cart (talk) 14:39, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Quality requirement is not identical there, where more importance is given to educational value, so it is useful to have opinions of people there. FP process is independent, even if one may influence the other. What is decided here doesn't have a direct impact on what is decided there. I would say that Wilfredor's version is brighter, and has more cleaning of spots and scratches, so Apple may rather choose it for marketing purpose. But is it faithful to the other original? It is another question. Yann (talk) 15:43, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Iberian Lynx (Lynx pardinus), Almuradiel, Ciudad Real, Spain.
I uploaded a selective sharpening version, however, I rollbacked myself because it need author approval --Wilfredor (talk) 21:07, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose A lot of problems, unsharp, his rigth eye like oversharpened. Cleaning noise around the animal make bad trace around. Far from FP standard. Poco, Quality or Quantity !? --Mile (talk) 12:53, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Success rate for me is when you open your FP Category you can enjoy to see picture there, your eyes should rest on them. Do you really think this one is worth ? It was "OK" shot, ISO 2500, but not FP standard, i talk for the original. When start "editing" you get worst, banding too. I would make just little denoise and increase Vibrance, maybe 4-5% Saturation and leave it. You can not set up "ISO 200" doing much here. In any case if so special its VI nomination, not FP. Try with QI nom. --Mile (talk) 14:31, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Yes, the right eye is unfocused, but the cat has a real presence. In terms of the animal's scarcity, I will quote from w:Iberian lynx: "By the turn of the 21st century, the Iberian lynx was on the verge of extinction, as only 94 individuals survived in two isolated subpopulations in Andalusia in 2002. Conservation measures have been implemented since then, which included improving habitat, restocking of rabbits, translocating, reintroducing and monitoring Iberian lynxes. By 2012, the population had increased to 326 individuals,[6] to 855 in 2020,[7] to 1,111 in 2021,[8] and to 1,668 in May of 2023.[9]" That's pretty rare! If that's not accurate, you should update the Wikipedia article with some source that documents a substantial population in countries other than Spain. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:56, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cala Capreria
I wanted the cove to be the focus of the photo. I don't feel the hill to be particularly exciting, being sparsely vegetated and sunburnt. --`The Cosmonaut (talk)
Fair enough, I do have the frames to make a panorama of the place. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 05:43, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Cmao20 and Kritzolina: are the coves unspoiled by development with exceptionally clear water really a dime a dozen? When I look at the Category:Coves_by_country, there are only 5 FPs, 2 of which are mine, so what am I missing?.. I truly wish such scenes were abundant, but in my experience, they aren't; certainly not in Europe. For me, waterscapes are as unique as mountainous landscapes, of which we have hundreds of FPs. But I suppose, this may be my subjective perception. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 05:43, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Such places are not a dime a dozen, but still for me this shot doesn't really stand out in a way that I would want it as FP. This also might have to do with the minor compositional issues Charles and Ikan mentioned and to which I might add the very tight crop on the left side. But I did not want to go nitpicking - the overall impression is one of "beautiful, but not so special as I expect from a FP". Perhaps I am truly jaded, like Cmao20. But perhaps it is also the fact that I do love waterscapes as well and tried to get excellent shots. And am left with the feeling of - I have some of similar quality that I decided not to nominate, because I don't think they are deserving. Kritzolina (talk) 07:02, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They may very well be deserving, so, please, do nominate them! --The Cosmonaut (talk)
I am reminded of this FP by Poco a Poco which I think has a very similar composition but nicer light. Though I'm honestly not sure I'd have voted for that one either. At best weak support, maybe neutral. Cmao20 (talk) 17:18, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Agree with Charles it's a shame to be unable to fix stacking errors due to the fact that RAW pictures were sent to garbage -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:10, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I fixed the stacking errors.
    I disagree about keeping the raw material.
    I have already explained once how much space it would take. I don't see any point in keeping files that I almost never need. Digital garbage is already a big problem in the world today, and producing on top of it is not a sensible thing to do. Janeklass (talk) 04:26, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reading "it is not possible for me to fix this error" / "RAW pictures were sent to garbage" suggests that the stacking error would never be fixed -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:02, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I must have rushed the answer a bit. I thought it would be necessary to restack, but there was no need. Janeklass (talk) 05:07, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • HDD external hard drives between 8 and 14 TB cost between $100 and $200 in 2024. Much less expensive than camera equipment or microscope. And certainly enough space to archive RAW pictures for 5-10 years -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:13, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm sorry, but my vision of that time is different. Now that I think about it carefully, I even have some raw files from 2011. I have never opened them since the first time. They just consume space somewhere in the cloud. In my opinion, a hard drive is not a safe solution anyway, many things can happen to them. I keep my files in the cloud.
    By the way, HDD is an outdated technology today. Janeklass (talk) 05:26, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I still see possible issues, though I don't know if they're stacking problems or in the original. What accounts for some areas of blur on the bottom of the creature? Motion blur such that we can't see the cilia there? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:16, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Microscope lenses are used in photomicrography, the dof of microscope lenses is very small. It is very difficult to get every little hair in focus and it is not always successful. It is very difficult to find that right stacking step length. You can't take too many shots, otherwise you'll have too much overlap, and if you take too few shots, you might end up with blurry areas. This problem has probably arisen because these hairs have not been brought into focus. I don't think it's a problem. The overall appearance of the character is nicely seen and that's enough. Janeklass (talk) 06:39, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Thanks. It's a remarkable photo. I'd love to see an entire individual, but this is already quite obviously worth a feature, in my estimation.

And Arion you should still invest in a proper camera if you want to do well at FPC, the results with an iPhone will be very hit and miss. But, this file is huge (42 megapixels) and this 11 megapixel downsample is pin-sharp except for a tiny bit of corner unsharpness. Add to that a careful composition, an interesting modernistic church in an underrepresented region at FPC, and the fact that this one unlike the last one is perfectly centered, and you've got yourself an FP in my view. Cmao20 (talk) 17:35, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose This is a very good and useful photo, but I don't think that on a site that has great, sharp photos by Diliff, Poco and others, this is one of the best on the site. Even at 50%, the upper stained glass windows are not sharp. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:20, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I have seen the works of Diliff and Poco a Poco, but I find it unlikely they would consider the possibility of traveling to countries like Brazil to undertake photographic projects, recalling the incident where Poco a Poco was assaulted. It's important to acknowledge that for those from developed countries, fully understanding the personal and security risks in these environments can be challenging. When evaluating photographs, as it highlights the dedication and bravery needed to capture these images, even within a church. My personal experience with photography in Venezuela exposed me to similar risks, underscoring the significant problems faced by photographers in these regions. The accessibility to high-end equipment, such as a D850 camera, is limited in many countries, which can be a barrier to high-quality photography. I believe it's important to encourage and support more FPs from photographers in developing countries. Currently, there's a notable imbalance, with a majority of FPs originating from Europe. Diversifying the geographical representation in photography not only enriches our understanding of different cultures but also provides a platform for talented photographers from various backgrounds to showcase their work. Wilfredor (talk) 12:03, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are some situations in which shooting an FP may be impossible, and in this case, that's unfortunately due to high crime. But it's not about countries being more or less developed. We've featured quite a lot of photos of developing countries, including Brazil. I don't think features are necessary to encourage good photography; they exist to put a stamp on the very best pictures on the site. We have QI and VI, and if someone wanted to develop a program for acknowledging the best photography in high-crime areas that are given some kind of understandable definition or of developing countries, as defined by some recognized measure - or, I think more relevantly, of places in the Americas other than the U.S. and Canada, because we could predict that a slew of Basile Moran's photos of Laos would clean up in any contest for the best pictures of developing countries, and they are already FPs - that would be great! -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:55, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I understand and partially agree with you; however, you mention Basile Morin of Laos by way of comparison… it's funny to read because no other developing country is more dangerous, homicidal, robbing than Brazil. It's another level of reality. ★ 22:13, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, we have selected other photos from Brazil, most of which are mine, which is why I say it's risky. In Venezuela and Brazil, I used to dress very casually to avoid attracting thieves. I remember carrying a bag of bread or sweet potatoes, with the camera hidden at the bottom of the bag. If someone tried to rob me, I could show them it was just bread or sweet potatoes and nothing more. So, when I arrived at the place where I wanted to take a photo, I quickly planned my exit (usually by motorcycle taxi), quickly took out my camera, snapped the photo in 10 seconds, and then swiftly left the area. This technique worked for a long time, but the camera was a donation, not something I bought myself (it was donated by Dcoetzee about 15 years ago). This image might not be on the same level as those by Diliff and Poco, and I know that might seem unfair, but my vote is more about the circumstantial evidence of the dangerous country. Sorry if my comment seems excessive. Wilfredor (talk) 22:38, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • As someone who grew up in the bad old days of high crime in New York City, I'm certainly sympathetic. Loads and loads of cameras were stolen here in those days, though it sounds like today's Brazil is much worse than that. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:41, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I want to share with you a recent incident that happened during my trip to Brazil and why I've decided to avoid traveling there for some time. Upon arriving at the airport, my suitcase was immediately stolen. Then, 30 minutes later, I went to pick up a car I had rented online, only to find out from the rental company that they had no record of my booking, even though I had paid almost a thousand dollars. I then took an Uber to the house where I was supposed to stay. The next day, I managed to find a very cheap car, but it had trouble starting. Still, I set off on my journey, only to be stuck in a traffic jam for four hours, during which I was robbed by a motorcyclist. Afterward, I needed to refuel, so I stopped at a gas station where an attendant filled up my tank (as is customary in Brazil). However, when he came to charge me, I noticed the fuel gauge hadn't moved; my tank was still empty. It seemed that even the Shell gas station had scammed me. I called the police, who told me that the problem might be with my car and if I left without paying, I could be arrested. Reluctantly, I paid. Later, when I headed to my Airbnb, the address in the listing was different from the one the owner gave me, which turned out to be in a favela – yet another deception. This experience was a typical day in Brazil. Wilfredor (talk) 01:01, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    P.S.: By the way, much of what is the Category:Featured pictures of Brazil (mainly São Paulo) is due to the Wilfredo[r]'s effort and work; just compare Category:Featured pictures of Iceland, Ireland or Slovenia (developed countries), for example. ★ 02:13, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question for @W.carter: Wilfredor (talk) 23:51, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not quite sure why you ping me, when it's clearly Adam Cuerden who is our biggest expert on restorations. And I hope that you don't include me in the "fanatics and purists" group you mention above, because that would be very insulting. But I'll try to answer as best I can.
AI can be good for reducing noise in modern photos, if it's handled the right way, but not so good for fixing up old photos. AI simply isn't good enough for such things yet. This is because (as the AI techs put it) "it lacks consequentialist thinking". This is at the moment the big problem that those working on AI in films are dealing with. For example, most AI still have a problem with hair, and therefore it can't see the difference between a hair growing from someone's head or if it's just lint on the film.
The noise in modern digital photos is fairly uniform and predictable since it is made in a digital way. AI can find patterns in it and make calculations about what the missing bits might be, and make the image better. Photos made on glass plates or film are a very different matter. They are made in a more "organic" way with noise and grain more random, which makes it hard for AI to "read" the info in it. AI isn't smart enough either to recognize damage made to a photo by time (scratches, dust, lint, spots, etc.), because "it lacks consequentialist thinking". AI can scan a photo/object in 3 dimensions, but it can't see the 4th dimension: time. It can't see if a line in a photo was there when the photo was taken or if it has been added later. Real, good restoration work is not about making a photo look better (a lot of people misunderstand that part), it is mostly about reversing time for it, trying to make it look like it did when it was new and sometimes doing the same retouching or lighting work a photographer from that time could/would have done. AI is still a blunt tool painting with big strokes using a "digital roller", but good restaurations need to be done with a very fine brush. That is why humans are still the best tool for doing restorations. Sure, AI-aided tools (like all the tools in Photoshop) are great for human-guided micro-work on a photo restoration, but AI is pretty useless for big overall once-over works.
I know how much you like all these new digital inventions, but they are still just tools, and any work is best done if you select the right tool for it. AI is not the right tool for restorations. Yet. --Cart (talk) 09:31, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for taking the time to respond to my comment, I think we could take some points about this and put them in the FPC guideline. When I talked about purists in restoration I was thinking of myself. I think it could have been misinterpreted but I would never think badly of you, on the contrary, I admire you and that is why I invited you to this conversation. And btw, I want cite the Nolan Restoration of 2001 again to compare what is a well done work and something digital alteration that look better but its not a real restoration [1] Wilfredor (talk) 19:49, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think there's probably cases for generative AI models, but they're for things like "adding in some paper to fit this torn section that matches the other paper, or other cases where the thing being generated is far, far from the focus of the image. The bright spot upper left in File:Chief Joseph by Edward Sheriff Curtis.jpg where you want to match darkness and pattern might have AI applications, as the randomness screws with the tools you'd normally use. But don't use it to clean up the image. Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:35, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • The portrait was very small, wasn't it? I don't like the AI version, because it looks like this is a sepia photo, not black & white, and the AI version seems to change the shape of his face. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:24, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've reviewed the file and fixed all issues I could recognize (I'm speaking English, Russian, and Hebrew, and with some help from translation tools could make fairly educated guesses for other Slavic langs there; for Chinese, I totally relied on Google Translate, and the changes I made were very minor). It would be great if someone could re-generate text2path stuff after Arecibo’s text was updated.
