Oppose Compositionally average, and the sides are also dirty. Perhaps a VI to show what the building formerly looked like, but not an FP for me. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 05:44, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
Oppose per King of Hearts, it's a very useful image but for me just not interesting enough for FP. Cmao20 (talk) 17:34, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

- Keep it in /Non-photographic media#Posters and advertisement. There are already other posters that include photos or drawings based on photos in that cat. It's best to think: "Hmmm, now where would I find posters for entertainment?" When you start to fix up old movie posters, we'll just make a new category for that. :-) --Cart (talk) 14:59, 25 June 2019 (UTC)

Comment The contrail really has to be carefully edited out. Such trails are temporary so I don't think there are any ethical issues with removing them, and more than removing dust spots. This one is too distracting. -- Colin (talk) 21:16, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
Comment I'm a fan of reality as it is. These includes (in the opposite to dust spots produced by the camera) people on squares, sheep on meadows, and here the crane above the house (also temporary) and the contrails in the sky. --Stepro (talk) 21:52, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
Comment Moroder: Your statement "Feel free to use my photos, but please mention me as the author and send me a message." contradicts in the last part, in my opinion, the CC license. In addition, you require the version 3.0-de above, and below the version 4.0 of the license. You have to decide please. --Stepro (talk) 21:52, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
- Stepro, "mention me as author" is of course required by the licence. I take the "but please.... send me a message" to be a request rather than a requirement, so it doesn't contradict the licence. Another example, you may release your work under CC0, which waives all rights, and still request attribution and a notification. -- Colin (talk) 07:08, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Qualified support Not as sharp throughout as one would expect given the size, but just too stunning an image for that to be anywhere near enough to oppose. Daniel Case (talk) 02:42, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Support, and about the contrail: The part of the mountain that was clearcut is much more disfiguring, but it's real, and if that is being shown, I don't see a good reason to delete the contrail. That said, there are some dust spots that should be removed because they are not part of the picture. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:01, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Only 9MP means we lack detail compared to many of our FP paintings and in particular we are usually spoiled by Google Art Project paintings many many times more detailed than this -- this is like a thumbnail in comparison. The crop in the top left is poor and the image has significant vignetting in the corners, either due to the lens or bad lighting. I don't see what is "among our finest" about this photographic rendering of a painting. -- Colin (talk) 07:43, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
Oppose I don't care so much about the resolution, but all the other points made by Colin I entirely agree. --Stepro (talk) 13:31, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Sorry for killing the mood, but having seen my fair share of kingfishers in the wild there is significantly too much saturation in the picture. This orange cannot be explained with perfect light conditions. Otherwise a great shot, with perfect posture and beautiful detail :-( C-M (talk) 18:15, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- @C-M: The species is orange though, just adding that--Boothsift 18:28, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- @Boothsift: Yes they are, over the years I have probably seen around 50 in the wild. If you have a look around you will find many excellent natural pictures here which are not that orange and more brownish. Feel free to compare with drawn field guides as these tend to have a fairly realistic color rendition, I have the Collins bird guide here on my desk as an additional reference («... underparts and cheek patch warm orangey brownish-red ...»). C-M (talk) 18:54, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- I uploaded a more realistic version with the saturation reduced by 30% - not sure whether I did the licensing correctly, I had to remove the flickr reviewer part of the description for the upload to pass, so feel free to fix potential problems there. C-M (talk) 19:26, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- @C-M: You can upload a new version of the original file instead. As the bot is glitchy, I have removed the picture. --Boothsift 04:57, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
- I intentionally did not want to change the original as that would interfere with the candidacy. We could nominate the desaturated version as an alternate, but we should in that case probably notify everyone who left already a vote. C-M (talk) 18:43, 25 June 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Quality is pretty much what you can expect from this kind of shot. Being a documentary photograph of a public event, it was probably taken on regular 135 film. So it will have more pronounced grain than the studio portraits taken on medium or large format film that we usually get to see here. That being said, I'll have to agree with Peulle as well. --El Grafo (talk) 08:14, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Info Created, uploaded and nominated by me. It's a view to Lake Hawea. What is interesting about this photo is that you can see that it's snowing there. The day was fairly warm so the snow didn't make it all the way down to the lake but it made it to the mountain tops. I'm standing around the snow line so you can see that on the left ridge the snow is presented but just a little bit down the ridge the snow doesn't reach the ground and melts before it has a chance to touch the surface. -- Podzemnik (talk) 20:56, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Oppose - Very good iPhone picture, but I was able to guess that it was an iPhone picture before I looked at the metadata. It looks good at 300% of my 13-inch laptop screen, but at higher magnifications - which seem legitimate for this kind of panorama - compare it to King of Hearts' photo, nominated directly above this. Welcome, Adfasdfsdaddsd, but you need 50 edits before you can vote here, and the mere fact that a photo is a panorama is not really a good reason to support its evaluation as one of the very best photos on the site. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:56, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Not bad for iPhone picture but viewing the file at only 50 % of its size, I can still see JPG artifacts in the sky and the landscape is lacking details (perhaps too much luminance has been applied). The sky pixelation is visible at 33 % only. Pretty good picture for a phone and I think we'll see more and more phone pictures at FPC in the future.

Neutral The quality is actually very good, especially since we can consider the scenery itself part of the quality of a photo. But I must admit, that it could be sharper on some of the details when viewed in full resolution. I do not want to punish people who only have rubbish Apple products more than they are already punished, but while I cannot oppose, I cannot support either. ℺ Gone Postal (〠 ✉ • ✍ ⏿) 11:14, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Very surprised this has got support from some established users. It's high-resolution and sufficient quality to use in articles, so thanks for the contribution, but quite apart from the low detail at full-res there are other major flaws including the washed-out sky and the fact that the whole image seems to be leaning to the right.

Info The scintillant hummingbird is a regional endemic restricted to the Costa Rica and Panama highlands. It is so small (it weighs 2gm), it cannot reach nectar in the normal way. It has to pierce the base of the flower (Abutilon sp.). This cunning way of feeding means that it plays no part in pollination. All by Charlesjsharp -- Charles (talk) 12:20, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

Question Very nice images indeed. If you would nominate them separately I'd have a problem to promote the second or third, whatever is nominated later. And as a set I don't really understand why these picture are included in a set, specially the second and right. None of the criteria for a set applies here IMHO. Charles, what was your motivation? Poco2 20:53, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
- I thought illustrating the way the bird hovers then pirces the flower was valuable here. It's a very unusual behaviour. The first image is the highest quality. I had intended to also add a GIF or APNG of a total of 8 images but can't work out how to make one of high enough quality!. I think this FP set criterion applies: 'A sequence of images showing the passage of time. They could depict frames of a moving/changing object. (my bold). If I've misinterpreted the rules, the we could change the nomination I guess which would be a shame. Charles (talk) 21:28, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Underexposed on the sides (shadows are crushed to black), overal too high contrast, and CAs on all the windows. Camera position was not in the center it seems (see escalators). Pixel detail is quite low although the camera is quite capable (max. 36 Mpx). Needs slight sharpening. – Lucas 06:36, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
Oppose It is a remarkable sight, certainly with wow. This airport is only recently completed, so I would expect more images to come. This one is technically weak/downsized per Lucas. -- Colin (talk) 07:09, 25 June 2019 (UTC)

Info That is very unlikely. The photo on Commons has all EXIF data, which has no on the website you specified. --Stepro (talk) 14:20, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
Comment It is not uncommon for photographers to upload a couple of their photos here on Commons to get a bit more exposure for their work. You could ask the author for an COM:OTRS ticket just to be on the safe side. Most of us have been in similar situations. I had to supply an OTRS for a photo that was harvested from my Flickr account before I had time to upload it here. --Cart (talk) 14:36, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
Info Things are in motion: Commons:Deletion requests/File:JewelSingaporeVortex1.jpg --Cart (talk) 15:18, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
- Why the date on the EXIF is 18 March 2018, the airport was not open for the public at that time see infobox https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewel_Changi_Airport . On the contrary Mott_MacDonald provided building engineering services for the development, thus they were easily able to photograph it before it was Opened for public. -- Eatcha (talk) 16:31, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
- This is being discussed at the photo's deletion request, let's keep that conversation there. There were several previews of the airport before it opened, or the photographer could simply work for a PR company with early access, be a salesperson in one of the stores in the airport or something. That doesn't matter if he want to make his photos available here under a Commons license and can confirm to the OTRS people that the photo is his. --Cart (talk) 17:23, 25 June 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Per Peulle Poco2 19:08, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
Support A lot of wow factor actually for me, but I guess it takes a trip to Japan (or even paying attention to details alone) to realise it's maybe not that easy to get a shot like that, with proper framing, a good light and only a couple (wearing kimonos) walking in the middle of a very picturesque street. Almost feels staged. - Benh (talk) 20:46, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment by the way, if you used f/13 to get maximum DOF, I don't think you needed to. compared to something like f/8, you only get 60cm more of "sharp" area (1.6m to infinite again 1m to infinite with f/13) - Benh (talk) 21:03, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Benh, thanks for your review. How do you make this calculation ? See this picture for example at f/8 where the sides were unsharp, while the distance was higher than 1.6m (and the focal length wider). -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:34, 5 July 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Basile, I use a DOF calculator (mine is from Photopills but they provide a web version as well. I don't trust them actually, because most don't take in account the resolution of the sensor (like the one for photopills), but my point was that maybe it wasn't necessary to stop down this much. Based on the Photopills DOF calc, you need to focus at about 3m, not at infinity, for this to work. - Benh (talk) 07:34, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- I see. Very technical. But difficult to use in practice (in the street without computer). Here I used the autofocus, targeting the walking people. So f/13 was to get the foreground as sharp as possible, with this priority. Maybe with static subjects I would have processed differently. Interesting tool, though -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:56, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Keep for now. If Granada thinks he has better images in the pipeline, let him nominate them first. Daniel Case (talk) 18:28, 29 June 2019 (UTC)
Keep per Daniel, I'd be happy to support a delist and replace if the newer image is similar and better. That's what I plan to do with Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Lower Manhattan from Jersey City November 2014 panorama 1.jpg if I ever get around to reshooting it with my yet to be acquired Nikon Z 7 Mark II. For me, it is only acceptable to delist an image that still meets our FP criteria on Commons if 1) there is a proposed replacement which is clearly better and 2) the creator of the original FP consents to it (usually this means a like-for-like replacement by the creator). This stands in contrast to English Wikipedia, where 2 is not required. Here 1 is not met. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:51, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
Comment - I don't think it's a good idea to nominate that big panorama for any kind of delisting. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:03, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
Result: 4 delist, 8 keep, 0 neutral => not delisted.

I don't think we should count this vote as valid. 1) It's clearly a revenge vote, 2) the reason is not true (there is enough information about the image), 3) even though I'm trying to assume good faith, after seeing what happened here (check the history), I'm struggling to see how contributions of this user to the project will end up in a positive manner.

Neutral Resolution is great, but we already have a bunch of FPs from this view (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) and the lighting of the existing FPs is mostly more interesting (or by night, which is more spectacular IMHO). Poco2 19:45, 5 July 2019 (UTC)
- This would be the highest-resolution FP of them all, so I think this does offer something new to the table. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 23:48, 5 July 2019 (UTC)
- Wilfredor, I'm answering the comment you inserted in this FPC and later, for whatever reason and without mentioning anywhere, deleted. This user is not worried about delits, specially if you delist the image you linked (which was yours :). If you meant this FP, I indeed like the lighting there much more than here, those clouds add an interesting element in the compo IMHO. If your threat to delist an FP is your argument to defend this FP then that's a poor one.
- KoH: That higher resolution is such an argument that compensates lighting or compo vs already existing FPs was not really clear to me, I'll nominate some candidates following that rule. Poco2 08:23, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Comment Previous FP is Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Helgoland - Blick vom Lummenfelsen zur Langen Anna.jpg. (Previous failed FP by A.Savin Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Heligoland 07-2016 photo15.jpg). Are you proposing to delist the other, which was criticised for poor lighting and only just passed 2:1 ratio. -- Colin (talk) 10:14, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
Oppose because of similar FP (but would support a "delist and replace"). --A.Savin 11:12, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment Not really. May there be only one FP of each motive? By a close look, location and perspective are actually different (see the wall for example), day and lighting are also. So I think a separat nomination is justified. --Milseburg (talk) 11:35, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
- So if you think that both pictures complement each other well and without redundancies, you should have nominated them as a set, which I, however, would not have supported (you know why). --A.Savin 12:27, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment Currently the unwritten case law is that recently promoted FPs should not be delisted except in the case of procedural error. I am genuinely not sure how I'd feel about changing that, but unless general consensus is obtained for such a thing, recent FPs should not be nominated for D&R. So in the meantime
Support. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 12:53, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
- King of Hearts I think the delist issue with recent promotions was to avoid a case where someone was unhappy that an image got promoted and merely wanted to run the process again in order to get the result they wanted. A sort of "what were you guys thinking?" but ends up wasting our time as the same group of people still vote the same way. I don't think that affects D&R at all. I think here, Milseburg has taken the criticism of the previous nom on board, gone out to try to take a better picture in better light. The angle/crop is slightly different but the basic motif is the same. I don't think we should promote both, and the other one is clearly weaker. -- Colin (talk) 13:01, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
- Ah, I got confused and didn't realize these two were by the same nominator. In that case a D&R is very much reasonable. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 13:22, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

Oppose A useful picture, and as per above the composition is good, but in quality terms this falls a long way short of our best church interiors. Have a look at the church interiors of Diliff, Uoaei1 and Poco a poco, to name only three, to see the kind of photography that would be considered strong material at FP. These usually tend to be shot with a tripod to enable a longer exposure at low ISO. Some authors also produce high-resolution stitched panoramas using a panoramic head. All this is probably worth investigating if you're interested in producing better-quality church interiors (not that this one is bad, but it's not FP). Cmao20 (talk) 13:41, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Mystic? Just a searchlight and we try to avoid this type of image! And not sharp enough Charles (talk) 10:02, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
- I don't care about the source of the light, only the effect it creates. Just like with so many other gadgets and tricks used by photographers to get a good photo. ;-) Btw, who are the "we" that tries to avoid this type of images? Is there an assembly of wildlife photographers dictating how animals should be depicted on FPC or are you using the pluralis maiestatis about yourself? --Cart (talk) 11:29, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
- Charles, you take a lot of photos with a flash, and some voters here have objected to that. Lay out the practical difference to the animal between that and this. I ask sincerely, simply because I don't know. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:19, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, I was using the Royal We, apologies. Typically this light pattern comes from the safari vehicle guide's seach light/spotlight, not the photographer's. It's a low-temperature light that results in a browny-ornage tone. It can be used for special effects, but wildlife photographers prefer off-camera flash. With well-executued flash, you get nice colours. Sometimes there isn't time for that (or the subject is too far away) and, as you say, images taken with direct flash can seem harsh. But if it's direct flash or nothing, I'll go with direct flash. The generally accepted 'animal-concern' advice is to avoid flashing diurnal mammals. And for noctuurnal mammals, make sure the main flash is off-camera. For reptiles, amphibians and arthropods, there is not thought to be any danger to the animal. Any light of course, may reveal prey to a predator. I've never ever seen a predator attack when there's a light shining on a prey-anaimal, but I guess it can happen.

Support Oh, yes. Let's bring FPC kicking and screaming from the ideals of Baroque still-life food depiction into modern food presentation and food photography. The idea is to see every part/item of the composition as if they were elements in an abstract painting. Here the cut off circle(bowl of chickpeas) is a perfect balance for the larger circle(bowl of hummus) and the break-frame lines of the folded cloth. The compo is then fine-tuned by the bold red X(slices of bell pepper) and various color infusions made with yellow(oil in the hummus) and green(herbes). --Cart (talk) 06:34, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

Oppose I note that this was taken 4 minutes before sunrise, about 30 degrees away from being directly into the sun. Backlit scenes are great for silhouettes and getting a glow effect (e.g. on vegetation and hair), but in general they rob subjects of contrast and clarity. Also would prefer more resolution for an architectural shot with no mitigating factors. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:23, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

Moral support: Thanks for daring to be different. Few people would even think about getting their camera out under conditions like this. These people will never experience how *beep*ing difficult it is to photograph rain. I mean, if you look closely, you can (with some experience) tell that it is indeed pouring heavily in this scene, but you might be forgiven for thinking it's just a bit foggy. I guess what would help getting the message across here would be some kind of additional visual cue. Like a person in rain gear or with an umbrella fighting the weather … --El Grafo (talk) 14:30, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for those kind words, El Grafo. I agree that a token person would have been nice, but most people here are wise enough to stay indoors in this kind of weather. :-) To paraphrase an old song: "Mad dogs and Commons photographers go out in the evening rain". --Cart (talk) 15:20, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Certainly good quality, but not FP for me. --Yann (talk) 17:48, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
Support - I've thought about this for a long time, and I've come to the conclusion that it's legitimately an FP. It's a good composition in pouring rain, and if Monet thought it was worth making paintings of "effet neige", this is a photo with "effet pluie". Not that this is like Monet, but I think it is good enough. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:34, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
- Tnx! I've got plenty of "effet neige" too. :-D I've always wondered why only clear weather (or with the occasional fog) is deemed worthy of photos. --Cart (talk) 08:36, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

Weak support This shape evokes me an animal, with the profile of a head on the top-left corner, and some legs or wings behind.

Strong support I think this is an absolutely fascinating map of the political order in Europe - made in that brief age of optimism after WWII but before the Iron Curtain began to take shape, when it appeared that peace and reconciliation were just as possible as the division and polarisation of the Cold War.

Comment I noticed that "East Prussia" is on the map, despite that entity being absorbed by Russia and Poland respectively in 1945. So there is a factual error in this 1946 map; the disclaimer in the printing - that the information comes from 1938 - just isn't enough for me.--Peulle (talk) 07:43, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- Peulle There are several “errors” of that kind, for example the inclusion of the Free City of Danzig, which was incorporated into Poland as the city of Gdańsk after the war. However I do think that to complain about that is missing the point slightly, as in 1946 the post-war political formations of Europe were in flux, and no one really knew what a stable post-war political order would look like. Hence the mapmakers have decided simply to use the 1938 information, the last time anyone could have been certain what European political formations were. I think this has value in itself, showing the prevailing uncertainty in Europe even post-Potsdam Conference. Cmao20 (talk) 12:05, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- Sure, that's one way to see it. As far as I'm concerned, though, I don't think this map should ever have been published.--Peulle (talk) 12:52, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Comment For some context on this: w:Hermaphrodite_(Nadar), this is one in a series of photographs which are “probably the first medical photo-illustrations of a patient with intersex genitalia”, and a “milestone in the history of sexual medicine”. I can't vote now because I'm not familiar enough with this to judge the importance of this photograph and the superiority against the others of the series. Regarding the restoration, it's all too washed out for me. – Lucas 16:27, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Sorry, this is no doubt a historically important photo and also the best in the series IMO since there are no hands of a physician getting in the way of the subject. Still, even for such important photos I'd want a bit of artistic composition and perhaps better quality in the photo for an FP. This is the same position you get in a gynecologist's chair and there is nothing artistic about that position, only practicality and intrusion. --Cart (talk) 21:37, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

- +1. Is this something you put some numbers into a program and the computer churns it out in a few seconds, or is it a big job to make?--Peulle (talk) 16:01, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, kind of. The image is created with a fractal generating program called Kalles Fraktaler 2+. In the Metadata-Information you can get all the information to recreate this fractal detail shown in the image above. The fractal parameters can be varied, depending on the fractal formula. In my opinion, this image shows self-similarity and the infinity of fractal quite well, so I decided to nominate it here. How big the job is depends on what topic in fractal theory you want to focus :). Regards, --PantheraLeo1359531 (talk) 19:57, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
Support Great! -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 20:03, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment It's hard for me to judge the photo as I don't understand much what it displays. Can you please tell us more about the photo? Like eg. why is it green? Does it have any significance? Did you choose the colours or were they chosen by the software? I'd simply like to know what makes this picture special and distinguish it from other pictures at the same categories. --Podzemnik (talk) 00:47, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
- The colors are generated by a random seed number. The composition of the colors is generated like that, so the contour is clear and sharp. The special in the image is in my opinion a phenomenom showing a spiral which is containing an infinite amount of another spirals at the edges. Also the self-similarity is quite well visible, because the "antennas" get smaller next to each other. Because of these circumstances, zooming can lead to see similar structures. These reasons show IMO well known phenomenoms of fractals in one image. The colors indicate the number of iterations. More iterations curse to a higher detailed fractal. The area, that an iteration affect to the fractal, is colored in another color than the following iteration. For asthetic reasons, the color transitions are smooth. In this case, you can see the transition from black to green/yellow. The black area is a result of a lower iteration number. It is rougher and less detailed than the yellow/green colored area. The colors show arbitrary sizes. By zooming, the colors change because of the change of iterations. The dark area is the area of the fractal. I hope, this description, helps, regards, --PantheraLeo1359531 (talk) 11:54, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

While Cart's hook was crispy sharp and had a decent light, this pulley suffers from an agressive midday sun resulting in a lack of details on much of its surface.

Comment It looks rather heavily oversaturated and this is confirmed when checking the exif. Could you please dial it down to more natural levels. It also need better categorization, see COM:Categories. Thanks, --Cart (talk) 14:21, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Isn't this the flower that's famous for smelling really bad? Interesting photo. That said, I don't think the quality is quite at FP levels, as the plant itself doesn't seem in focus to me. Cmao20 (talk) 18:44, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Unsharpness, distortion and tight crop. Daniel Case (talk) 00:24, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
Oppose - Yes, Cmao20, it is known for smelling like rotten flesh, and it's a huge flower - it can be over 100 cm in diameter. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:20, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Ikan Kekek: What is your reasoning behind your oppose? --Boothsift 03:26, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry, same reasoning as everyone else - not sharp enough for its size, etc. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:50, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
Oppose I agree with the others --Boothsift 03:26, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment IMO, this is not so far from FP: light and composition (the plant in itself natural environment) are good. If only sharpness could be improved. Regards, Yann (talk) 06:21, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

Info I recently came across these excellent images of the Nazca Lines, a set of huge geoglyphs carved into the Nazca Desert in Peru, taken by Poco a poco from an aeroplane. They are all high-resolution, sharp, and, especially considering the technical challenges of shooting from the air through a window, very good quality - indeed, I can find no better images of the Nazca Lines, certainly none available under a Creative Commons license, on the internet. The first three images are already featured (although Poco has made a few improvements to them) and are included for completeness, but the other images are equal in quality to the ones already promoted, and thus in my opinion deserve equally to be featured. I appreciate there may be a question-mark over whether the scope of this set nomination is sufficiently defined to be featured, since there are several dozen Nazca geoglyphs, but please do consider that the set includes all the most famous geoglyphs and the ones that are most frequently used to illustrate the site; many of the ones that Poco has not photographed are merely straight lines or geometric shapes and would probably have insufficient 'wow' to be FP anyway. See what you think, anyway - I think this is a high-quality collection of images that have immense wow and are also very valuable to the project.

Comment I don't think you can include files that are FPs already in the nom, set or not, it will totally mess with the FP system and all the logs. Please remove them from the set. As for the rest, I don't see this as in scope for a set nom. It is a bit like nominating "some of the most famous UNESCO heritage sites in Europe". I think you have to nominate them one by one. These big wholesale noms are not what the Set option was intended for. Similar noms: MAV I and MAV Canidae --Cart (talk) 15:57, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
- Cart, no problem; I didn't know it would mess with the codes, the ones that are already FP are gone now. As for your other objection, I did think this criticism might be offered - if you look on Poco's talk page I discussed it with him and came to the conclusion to go ahead anyway and see what happens. Ultimately the way I see it is that a) this set includes virtually all the most famous Nazca Lines, and the overwhelming majority of the rest are merely simple lines and shapes, and b) The images are all of very strong quality and I suspect they would all pass if nominated one by one - thus, since they are all images of the same phenomenon, it would be much simpler to promote them as a set rather than take up the community's time with the bureaucratic task of making people vote on every single one. But as I say, I understand your criticism and respect that point of view. We'll see what others think, if the set idea gets slated I'll nominate some individually. Cmao20 (talk) 17:40, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
- Ok, we'll see what others say. Wrt taking up the community's time, voters still have to examine every one of these individually in a part of a set and as a set compare them with each other to see if the quality is the same across all of it, so it will actually take more time for the rest of us in the long run. Some voters may even be reluctant to do such a big job all at once. The only one "saving time" will be you since you don't have to create so many nominations.
--Cart (talk) 18:22, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
- Agree with Cart. Where are :
- the pelican ?
- the bear ?
- the orca ?
- the duck ?
- the horns ?
- the tribe ?
- the solar calendar ?
- the lizard ?
- the creatures ? Etc.
- For a set, the guidelines say "Not acceptable: A few breeds of cats". Similarly we have here a few Nazca lines. There are also some technical problems, so please nominate them separately -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:39, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
- Your list of non-included figures is not a solid argument to me. Of course that the set here does not contain all Nazca Lines. There are hundreds of them, and some of them are still to be discovered. In your list I haven't found any well known lines, in fact, I never heard about some of them, and I read a bit about the topic before and after my trip. Btw the first on in your list is also mine and on Commons, no problem to add it to the set :) unfortunately the Daily Star Newspaper does not seem to understand our licenses :( If you let me know where those technical issues are, I can try to fix them. Poco2 13:23, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
- This is not how sets work. "A group of images which show all possible variations of a particular class of object." Do these 8 images show all possible variations of the Nazca lines ? No. There are more than 20 important here, and yes more aside also. This is just a big bunch of pictures on the same subject, not a proper set. I noticed technical issues on at least two of them above. However this is not the moment to review each of them individually, sorry. Now I've spent enough time on this nomination already. This is like nominating 8 pictures of the best temples of a big site like Angkor Wat, or 8 canidae skeletons. It doesn't make a whole -- Basile Morin (talk) 14:31, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

Strong Oppose I'm missing wow, this is a too basic and unimaginative focus stack studio shot with soft lighting a lot of online shops are using for their products when they don't care to do something original. Composition is lackluster and the whole presentation of stacking them doesn't do it for me as there's not one berry visible with good separation from others and the dark shadows hide detail. The background needs to be edited better, it should at least be pure white (to be more useful and clean) and not grey with a noticeable blue tint (RGB values: 237, 240, 245). Also there's dirt and hairs scattered on the surface, two distracting reflection-like shapes on two sides, which look weird with this otherwise matte surface, and finally some digital brush strokes/cloning strokes on the bottom. – Lucas 06:58, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

Oppose I'm puzzled you nominated this and withdrew File:Montreal Skyline from Mont Royal.jpg. There's a bit of size difference but not much actual extra detail and since most of this image is in shade, the other one often shows more detail simply because the sun is shining in the windows and on the walls. I like the composition of the other one, which is similar to Poco's File:Vista de Montreal desde el Monte Royal, Canadá, 2017-08-12, DD 70-74 PAN.jpg. The composition is nicely framed with the trees and offers extra width with the water on both sides. While Poco's has an interesting sky, the city itself is entirely in shade, whereas your File:Montreal Skyline from Mont Royal.jpg has an ordinary blue sky but the city glows with daylight. This "golden hour" nominee only really has the golden light in a small area, which might have worked if that area was worth highlighting, but it isn't any more special than elsewhere. (Btw why do both your photos have the same date-time if they can't be taken at the same time). Both your images suffer from wonky verticals (draw a line up the side of the tall buildings and the deviation is obvious). I suggest adding vertical control points to the tall buildings right across the panorama to ensure they are straight and help keep the horizon level. I see in the previous nomination there was a discussion about resolution & lighting and Poco seemed to come away with the idea that resolution alone was sufficient to nominate new FPs. Resolution doesn't rescue a dull photo. But I disagree with Poco that the lighting in File:Montreal Skyline from Mont Royal.jpg is worse than his: only the sky rescues the earlier image, since the city is in shadow with dull light. I'd support File:Montreal Skyline from Mont Royal.jpg with fixed verticals. However, what I'd really like to see is not just another technical improvement over the existing daylight photos, but an image that makes me go wow without caring about resolution. Nobody has surpassed Diliff's File:Montreal Twilight Panorama 2006.jpg. Shot at just the right time, twilight, to provide a mix of daylight and artificial light, and with great weather. -- Colin (talk) 20:03, 11 July 2019 (UTC)

I withdraw my nomination I think that Colin is right, this image does not have anything special and does not add anything, despite being of a huge size and better than the FP of Poco, according to Colin, I think that it should not be FP since it lacks the wow factor or the correct lighting. I am very grateful to those who supported the image, I will try to make a better photo next year. --Wilfredor (talk) 02:13, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

The Church of St Eustache is a sixteenth-century Gothic church, and one of the largest churches in France not to have cathedral status. The chapel was built in 1640 and restored in 1804, when it was consecrated by Pope Pius VII.

Info Ellis Island was the busiest immigration station in the US in the early 20th century. A hospital operated there for about 25 years until 1930. It's been closed since then. A few years ago the artist JR took photos of patients from the archives and installed them as murals around the hospital grounds. This is one of those images. I found this one, on a broken window in a dark hallway, to be particularly effective. Created/uploaded/nominated by — Rhododendrites talk | 23:49, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

Support So is this an area of Ellis Island the public is allowed into? Or was this a little urbex thing? Daniel Case (talk) 03:34, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Daniel Case: Starting a few years ago, to raise money for preservation, they started running a limited number of "hard-hat tours" which take you through parts of some of the buildings, other parts of which are in really bad shape. Surprisingly, these murals weren't a big part of the tour -- in fact I kind of had to do a little exploration while on the tour, wandering off and catching back up a few times, in order to see a couple of them. :) They're really quite striking (can see a few others here -- I've considered giving this other one a try at FPC, since I found the location of the mural behind this cage-like porch enclosure poignant, but the limited palette and the way the screen obscures the actual mural stopped me). I'm quite sure I didn't see them all. It makes for a very curious venue for an internationally famous artist like JR. Maybe there are other events that focus on them, but I didn't see anything about that. — Rhododendrites talk | 03:52, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

- The information I have: (a) the hospital was run by the federal government, so it's likely photos in the archive will be in the public domain in that way; (b) Save Ellis Island, which runs the tours and organizes preservation of the site, says "archival photos taken in and around the hospital, 100 or so years ago", which further suggests public domain; (c) New York Times includes "JR’s vision — to use Ellis Island photos in the public domain to re-enact history".Operating on the assumption they're in the public domain, I don't think that JR would be able to claim a new copyright for printing and pasting the photos, even if they're in unusual places. — Rhododendrites talk | 13:47, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

Question I wonder a few things. Did you use a polarizer to get rid of reflection? Did you tweak the aspect ratio to make up for the refraction of the light, so the proportions are more natural? Thank you. - Benh (talk) 11:50, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Benh, no polarizer, I skipped those years ago since they steal so much of the light. ;-) When you shoot things moving in water, you need to get at least below 1/200 sek for sharpness and for a bit of dof and low ISO a polarizer would ruin everything (I have tried). And no tweaking of aspect ratio (the ratio is as in raw), the proportions were already ok since the surface was calm and almost flat. Through much trial and error over a few years, I have found the perfect way to shoot things in the water. You have to wait for a very calm day with no wind (very rare here), choose the time of day that the sun will be at a good angle (non reflecting way) at the place you want to have a go at. Nearby moored boats are a blessing since the provide shade from the glare on the surface. I usually stalk things in the sea at marinas for this reason. Then you take a lot of photos, hoping that one will not have the stray surface reflection like in this photo I included for reference. So I keep an eye on the weather forecast and hope for good conditions. I've been testing this place, a marine nature reserve, since September last year. It has some nice interesting marine life. We finally had two days of calm weather and lots of sun so I could spend two rather successful mornings by the fjord. Unfortunately the eels were too deep to get good shots of. --Cart (talk) 13:01, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot for those insights. As for the aspect ratio point, I'm fairly sure that since the light changes direction between water and air, it compress the image in one direction (or both? not sure). If one direction, as it seems on the first picture, they it might be good to consider tweaking the aspect ratio. But, just my feeling. It's not like I see that many jellyfishes in my daily life. - Benh (talk) 17:21, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
- and under certain conditions, the polarizer "steals" mostly only the reflected light :) - Benh (talk) 17:24, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
- I don't think it's necessary to change any ratios. In all of these photos the jelly was only a couple of centimeters under the surface, so any distortion is negligible. This is pretty much what these small specimens look like, rather flat, unless fully contracted. They don't get large and dome-shaped this far south. --Cart (talk) 17:47, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

I would support the first one by itself, but as a set the second one doesn't fit well IMHO. The crop is not ideal, the jellyfish is partially cropped off and the background doesn't match the first photo. – Lucas 13:52, 14 July 2019 (UTC)Oppose
- I was pretty sure someone would have these two objections. First: When a jellyfish expands it kind of "explodes" with tentacles going all over the place. The tentacles are about 60-80 cm long so having the total radius in the photo would make for a really dull composition, and then I would get objections that the jellies were not the same size in the photo. The collected vs the chaos in these form a rather nice contrast to each other. Second: These guys move so light conditions and background are constantly changing (even if they move only a couple of decimeters, in this photo half is with greenish and half with bluish background). I've matched them up in the series much as I could. It's no problem fixing this in Photoshop, but I'd rather keep things as original as possible. --Cart (talk) 14:09, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot for taking the time to explain! I no longer feel comfortable opposing but the feeling remains that the first image is vastly superior visually and the movement of these animals is not shown well enough by the second one, so
Neutral it is. – Lucas 16:55, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

- Basile Morin Please, could you show me where are the overexposition?, the water hitting generates foam and bubbles, that could explain the color white ? thanks for your review --Wilfredor (talk) 18:02, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
- Done, I've added two notes. When checking the details on Photoshop, by reducing the light, I discover all the shades of this fall, unfortunately completely invisible with this light which makes them all white. It means the section is not burnt but almost overexposed, with all the details missing. Also there is a weird grey part in this area, is it post-treatment ? I've added another specific note. My main objection to this picture is really the dull light and fade colors, otherwise the compo would be fine with the foreground cut -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:27, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the notes, however, I think it is the natural white color of the water, there is no overexposure, however, I respect your evaluation.

Comment I was going to oppose because the main subject isn't properly identified. What's more, I'm 95% certain it's actually misidentified (I would be shocked if that turned out to be a member of Falconidae). Regardless of the FP category, it's the most prominent part of the image. Rather than oppose (it is a good photo) I've tried to do some research to try to identify it, but have not had luck yet (I'm ok with birds of North America, but that's it). I've asked in a bird identification subreddit that tends to be pretty helpful and will report back if/when someone replies. — Rhododendrites talk | 01:04, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
- I've already received a response: Ferruginous Hawk / Buteo regalis (indeed not part of Falconidae). Didn't come up in my research because it's not a European bird. Must be breeding them or something. Considering it further, I think I still come down as
weak oppose on this. It's a good photo at a glance, but it's not strong in any one particular way. I think it's hard to say the main subject is the woman, since she's way off to the side, cropped off, and looking directly at the bird, which is in the center of the frame and center of attention. But a photo of a captive animal should really be excellent technical quality to be featured. This is a nice shot, but I'd want to see more sharpness for a captive bird. — Rhododendrites talk | 01:17, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

- Lucas and others, yes that works in theory but unfortunately, all of the pages in other languages are not completely translated and most have outdated or missing information. The German version is among the better, but even it falls short of containing all information. Try reading some of them and you'll see. That is why I always link to the English "mother page" so that I know I will link to correct and updated info. (diff about this) --Cart (talk) 19:58, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
Oppose - I'm not sure how I feel about the main subject - the backlighting is nice, but I'm not sure it's FP nice and I don't really understand how everything but the plants is pitch black. However, the blurry flower in the foreground seals my opposition. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:37, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
- Ikan, you might want to check your monitor if you really only see black in the background. If the angled sun only hits the flowers and the background stays in shadow, this is the result, I've once captured a very similar shot. – Lucas 07:02, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
- I exaggerated. I do see some colors above the flower, between the flowers and below the flower. But a lot of it does look black. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:11, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
Support I like this, it's interesting to see a flower shot from a slightly unusual angle. The quality is lovely, and the blurry flower doesn't bother me because I can clearly see it's another sunflower rather than some random, extraneous plant - although I would also support if it were cloned out.

Oppose While the light is good, the angle-of-view isn't best. The chimneys are visible and some cranes hit the front. Compare File:Copenhagen Opera House 2017-08-16 2.jpg, with a slightly different angle (though it would be improved further if taken from greater distance), or File:Opera House At Night (149762917).jpeg straight-on with nice reflection in the water. Also the image is quite small (6.5MP) for 2019 and the water occupies a lot of the frame and is not the best feature. -- Colin (talk) 17:35, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

Info The City Hall subway station in New York City closed in 1945 because the length and curve of the track couldn't accommodate newer cars. I first learned of it as "the abandoned station you can see out the window of the 6 train" (which still uses the track to turn around, but doesn't stop there). When I finally did get access, there were some interesting architectural/design elements, and I was particularly drawn to this skylight, which looks up to an unsuspecting area of City Hall Park now.

Weak oppose It's not at all bad, and shows the statue from a great angle, but the technical side could be a bit better. In particular the background is a bit 'blotchy' in places, probably from in-camera noise reduction, and lacks detail in parts. The resolution is also not that high. I see that it was taken in 2009, and I feel that it might have been nominated here a few years too late - it probably would have passed then, but I'm not sure it's quite there ten years later.

Info created, uploaded and nominated by me. In this picture, I enjoy the unusual light. The sharp edge on the bottom is caused by the shadow of the surrounding mountains. The soft top is caused by snowy clouds.

--СССР (talk) 15:22, 14 July 2019 (UTC)Oppose: beautiful overall and great composition, but the blown highlights above the shadow are too plentiful and thus distracting. They could perhaps be recovered from RAW.
- You do realize it's snow which is lit by the sun before making such a statement, right? - Benh (talk) 18:56, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
- And this negates the "burned highlights in large areas are a distracting element" part in the guidelines? The lighting in this scene is certainly challenging, but its not non an excuse to forego proper exposure and/or post-processing --СССР (talk) 19:52, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
- To me white should appear white. Especially if it's under direct lighting by a harsh source. Interpreting the guideline as they are without taking into account the context is ridiculous sometimes. - Benh (talk) 17:15, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
- Snow, unlike, for example, a piece of highly polished homogeneous white plastic, has texture. And no amount of sunlight is going to change that. --СССР (talk) 23:37, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry, but have you ever seen snow under harsh light? The dynamic range of human eye is not nearly enough to see the textures in those conditions, HDR-images are another story. —kallerna (talk) 04:46, 19 July 2019 (UTC)

Support Confident support for an impressive image of a grand scenery! As the Canon 6D sensor sports 5.472 x 3.648 pixels, I assume that the image was stitched from three initial images in portrait mode. My full respect, no stitching artefacts visible, not even in the criss-crossing branches at the bottom. Yes, the snowy ridges in full sunlight are a trifle on the bright side, but only when viewed isolated from the rest of the image. Taking a step back and having a look at the full image, the bright and dark areas balance very nicely. --Franz van Duns (talk) 16:16, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

New image.
Info The new image is of higher spatial resolution and has much better exposure of the bones. (Original nomination)
Delist and replace -- Mikael Häggström (talk) 15:17, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment Hi Mikael. We don't need to delist/replace images -- Commons FP can have more than one featured hip replacement. That said, looking at the category, I think the old FP is not representative of the best such images. I wonder if your new photo would be better nominated as a set, with the before photograph. There's quite a lot of flesh clearly represented, and an IUD, which for some purposes could distract a little from the bone/replacement, but has its own merits too. Is the occupation of the subject relevant -- I'd tend towards minimising possibly identifying information. -- Colin (talk) 17:51, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment I agree with Colin that you should not delist the old one. Simply nominate the new one and perhaps some other images in the set. It is also great to keep the old for comparison with the new to illustrate the development of X-ray photos over time. Please keep the info about this being a nurse. I suspect you do that to indicate that this is one of "your own" and patients should not have to worry that you'd take just any X-ray images and make them public. This is done in many professions and we also have photos stating "Wikipedian modeling with ...". --Cart (talk) 03:26, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
- ALT2: Whole case series. As suggested below. I did get written consent from the person, including mentioning the occupation, so that should not be a significant issue here. Also, I agree the older image may indeed be more appropriate to show a hip prosthesis specifically, since the newer one makes other objects and structures visible.

Info Ok Mikael, det här blev lite fel. Du kan tyvärr inte bara lägga upp de nya bilderna så här på en 'Delist and Replace'-nominering. Mycket av hela proceduren här sköts av en Bot och nomineringarna måste anpassas till det. Du måste dra tillbaka den här nomineringen och skapa en ny 'Set'-nominering för alla bilderna på korrekt sätt. Du gör det genom att först placera
{{withdraw}}
och signera längst ned på den här nomineringen. Jag har kommenterat bort bilderna här så att den koden inte ska störa arkiveringen av det här. Sen får du gå till COM:FPC och skapa en ny 'Set'-nominering med hjälp av rutan där det står "Create new nomination - Commons:Featured picture candidates/Set/". Följ instruktionerna där. Jag håller ett öga på vad du gör och fixar ifall något skulle gå fel. Lycka till! --Cart (talk) 09:27, 23 July 2019 (UTC)I withdraw my nomination. Thanks for the advice, Cart. I'm a bit busy today, but I'll be back at this when I have the time, and feel free to create one if you want it done soon. Mikael Häggström (talk) 09:53, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Info St Katharine Cree guild church, Leadenhall Street, London, looking east from the organ loft at the west end. Built in 1628, St Katherine Cree is an important example of Jacobean architecture, a time during which few churches were constructed. The stained glass is original to the seventeenth century, as is the spectacular rose window visible in this picture, which was modelled closely on the large rose window in the original St Paul's Cathedral (which was destroyed in the Great Fire of London).

Info August 1961: The German chancellor Konrad Adenauer reading the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (issue of August 7, 1961) during his stay at the Villa La Collina in Cadenabbia, Italy.

Comment Very large resolution, but also extremely noisy. I have to downsize 6 times to appreciate a bit.
Question Since we have better quality pictures of the same period I wonder what makes this one exceptional for you (and others) ? Adenauer is almost seen from behind -- Basile Morin (talk) 09:45, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment grainy, not noisy. So it's a feature - not a bug. ;) But honestly, it really doesn't matter. We've just published the image in a book, the quality is more than fine. Besides there are barely any pictures showing Adenauer reading a newspaper at all (to my knowledge there are 4, including this image), although Adenauer used to peruse the headlines every day. I also like the perspective, actually. It's rather unusual as it offers a glimpse at what Adenauer is looking at. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 12:27, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
- Too grainy, a feature I don't think so, but thanks for your response -- Basile Morin (talk) 22:01, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Comment There are already some awesome featured pictures of dunes in Namibia, but none (at least none I could find) showing dune ripples nicely.
Support -- Domob (talk) 05:36, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment It's a nice view and composition, but the pasterisation in the sky is too much for FP I think. Can you try to do something about it? Also, I can see at least 1 dust spot. By the way how come that ISO is 200? The exposure program says "Normal program" which is automatic exposure I guess? --Podzemnik (talk) 06:53, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for fixing the page name, I'll be sure to take care in the future! I tried to reduce the gradient in the sky, is it better now? Where is the dust spot? I'll be happy to remove it. If your question is why ISO 200 and not 100, then that's simply because for some reason ISO 200 is what my camera considers the default. --Domob (talk) 08:31, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Domob I've put a note where the spot is. I don't see a significant improvement in the sky, I even wonder if it's fixable... --Podzemnik (talk) 09:15, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note, I removed the dust spot now and reworked the sky a bit more. Just for clarification, are you concerned about the gradient from dark on the left to brighter on the right, or the gradient from the very top to the horizon? There were quite strong winds with sand, so the latter is likely caused by sand in the air. --Domob (talk) 09:51, 19 July 2019 (UTC)

Support Per nomination. My Olympus CSC also considers ISO 200 its default, it isn't that unusual. Cmao20 (talk) 16:35, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
Strong support Sublime to the point of being otherworldly, and that's a high bar to get over given our other Namibian desert pictures. I almost swooned at it, and that's saying a lot for a desert landscape given the heat wave I'm sitting in looking at this. Perhaps some of the empty space at the top could be cropped down a bit more, but that's really a matter of taste on which I defer to the photographer. Daniel Case (talk) 18:45, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
Weak support Very nice dunes and great evening light, but the composition within the frame is important, and here 50% is filled with boring sky. Instead of a 4:3 crop, I would suggest a standard 3:2, because this gradient is not as interesting as this relief with sand. Cutting just over the fine clouds, you'll get a more striking image -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:02, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback! I'm happy to do that change, as it might indeed look nicer. But I'd like to get others feedback on this as well (in case some of the current supporters wouldn't want this change to happen). --Domob (talk) 07:21, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Compostion and depth of field. It is not obvious what the picture is showing - a similar creature to the one in this picture. Charles (talk) 16:55, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
- Hi @Charlesjsharp: , it's actually this species. It's crispy clear showing details barely visible to the naked eye with no artifacts at all. The one you linked is a completely different species. The hawk moths main feature is the head area, particularly the markings shown, how they mimic a snake with fangs. It's face, the clearest part in focus, is usually not noticeable owing to its shape and markings, hence what makes this a great angle, ~ R.T.G 18:21, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
- I should apologise, the thing which makes this creature intersting is that it is not really possible to tell what it is if you didn't already know. I should of thought of that when nominating. I invite you to look at the particular species category and take note only of the sort with the short face and the similar coloured markings (European variety). It sort of hides its face under the coloured neck area so this is a unique view of the actual creature beyond its camouflage, ~ R.T.G 18:33, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
- Actually the two species are quite close relatives in the Sphingidae family. Charles (talk) 22:10, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
- Relatives maybe, appearance, very different. It's actually an amazing creature to spot out. Where the one you linked has a long snout-like appearance, like an ant-eater, this one has a bunched neck to give it the appearance of a snakes head, and literally looks like a cartoon snake. I mean, it actually looks like that. It's a great picture, from experience. You'd know it immediately. Great poster for a fan of the thing. Perfect. Love it. ~ R.T.G 23:55, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
- I can see the photo isn't going to be featured, but just to show Charles, Here is the side angle fo the same animal. As you can see it is much different, but this image doesn't catch the personality of its face in the way the one I tried to feature does. It is surprising there are not a lot of high resolution images of this type of caterpillar. It's very photogenic. I'm sure a featured picture will appear out of this genus one of the days :) ~ R.T.G 11:52, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Info Waltensburg/Vuorz. Switzerland. Ruïne Casti Munt Sorn Gieri (Burg Jörgenberg). Memorial stone. A simple photo that fascinates me in one way or another.

Support - Support per nom. It's a very good photo that has a good form and rewards moving my eyes around it. Not the most obvious FP, but I think it merits the designation. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:12, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

Support Subject well-placed within frame. Nice surface sheen and signs of corrosion at bottom left, I thus assume bronze. Well captured and of historical interest. --Franz van Duns (talk) 17:40, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment I completely agree with Franz van Duns. A beautiful shine, a nice depth and the ragged left side make this memorial plaque special. The little blue sky in the upper left also adds something to the photo. I don't vote in principle on the photo. Because it was made by my wife. But it is a shame that this photo will not make it.--Famberhorst (talk) 16:36, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
- You can vote, but honestly I'm afraid your voice at this point won't completely change the result. To give more explanations about my vote, I find the light excellent, the subject sharp, that's why I agree with Ermell "this is a technically correct photo". Unfortunately the memorial plaque is boring as hell, excuse my frankness (and my subjectivity). So the "no wow" is here : in this very ordinary object, not particularly magical, not sexy, not funny, just not special enough. Certainly a very good QI, but not something original to make an FP (other users may have different feelings of course). The name of this merchant was missing on the file page, I've added it in English and in German, because it is important for the search engines -- Basile Morin (talk) 06:38, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you for your explanation and addition. Even if my vote could have made a difference, I would not have voted. Then you violate your principle.--Famberhorst (talk) 16:51, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

- OK, that's not easy to see, because we see the tongue in the mouth, then part of it is blocked by the dog's jaw, and then a small piece of two-headed blurred red thing in the background.

Support The image is pretty cool, but the wow comes from the fact that the Opportunity rover can be seen when zooming in (see note).

- Fixed now -- your image changed from 9409 to 9410 wide, and the notes include the dimensions. I assume this is so that if someone changes the image size and the notes would be wrongly placed, they are just not used rather than being displayed wrongly. -- Colin (talk) 07:18, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Support Convincing crop of an imposing bowstring bridge which includes the long railway approaches on both sides. A panorama probably composed of 3 images in landscape mode. On close scrutination only one stitching error visible: the top railing repeats just above the top beam between the 6th and 7th vertical beams from the right. Personal remark: Of the many panoramas I have processed with various versions of Adobe Photoshop, only a few result in multiple stitching errors,. The majority, even if composed of 20 images or more, sports exactly one stitching error, often at apparently easy-to-detect linear features as in this case. Seems like Adobe abhors producing a perfect image and secretly inserts one single error on purpose! Easily fixed by carefully applying the clone stamp, but not mandatory for featured picture status. Full support for an impressive view! --Franz van Duns (talk) 13:52, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Franz van Duns: New version uploaded. I think I fixed the little stitching issue on the railing. FWIW, I have not had the same experience of only one stitching error. e.g. this one recently at FPC which required shifting a chunk of floor. :) — Rhododendrites talk | 03:04, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Rhododendrites: Yes indeed, that stitching issue has now been meticulously removed. Note off topic: By the way, It is fascinating how the now immaculate flooring dominates that featured "Oculus (41323p).jpg" vista you supplied.

Wish we didn't have those clouds in the back; I don't know what you have done or not done to them but I'll accept them as a necessary tradeoff for the quality of the rest of the image.

- Boothsift, when you close a Delist, it is not enough to just close the nom here at the page since the rest is not done by a Bot. You have to follow the whole procedure for delisting as described on COM:FPC. Last time A.Savin cleaned up the rest for you last time on Commons:Featured picture candidates/removal/File:Bees Collecting Pollen 2004-08-14.jpg. If you only "close" a delist here in the list it might be archived and the rest of the procedure overlooked. If you are uncertain about how to do it all, better leave the closing for someone else, but it would be great if you too could learn how to do this. :) --Cart (talk) 13:00, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

Info Polyporus varius on a dead Sorbus. You hardly see any undamaged mushrooms in July in the Netherlands. This Polyporus varius has a nice wave in his hat. And two small protrusions on the head against the trunk of the dead tree.

Comment This is a great composition, the only thing that bother me a little is that unsharp front of the mushroom. So I looked at the other versions to see how they looked and found the near identical number 05 that had a sharp front but the rest unsharp. As I seems to remember, you don't do focus stacked images, but it seems a shame not to combine these two photos to make a stunning and totally sharp image. I hope you will forgive me for making a merge just to see how it looked. If you like it, it is yours to use as you see fit. Here is a link to version 03-05 in my Dropbox. I apologize if you think I did anything wrong here. --Cart (talk) 19:28, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

Comment 1/250 sec not fast enough to freeze the motion unfortunately. Charles (talk)
Comment for Charles - Given a gray day on Barrientos brings trade-offs… 1/250th; f/5.6; ISO 560 with a 380 mm focal length is a decent compromise. While I did not have the opportunity for second guessing, maybe I could have given up a little more ISO for a 1/320th. Really though, a sunny day would have been the best option to freeze everything and that was not available. I am OK with a slight softness in the back flipper (front and rest of body are sharp) that says this little penguin in a hurry to meet everyone. --GRDN711 (talk) 01:39, 26 July 2019 (UTC)

Qualified support A little noisy in the background, but I can let that go. I also wonder if we could crop in on the sides (see suggestion) although the image is admittedly small to begin with. Daniel Case (talk) 04:00, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
Comment Thank you for your thoughts, Daniel. You are right – there is snow and ice further up the hill but behind the penguin is an uninspiring mixture of rocks, lichen, penguin poo and feathers from older birds molting. I made a duplicate of the image in Lightroom and implemented the vertical crop as you suggested. Flipping back and forth between the two, I was surprised how well the vertical format worked in bringing a little more focus to the bird. However, the 4:3 horizontal format also had its strengths. Mr. Happy is running towards the camera and the extra space, particularly on the right, gives a stronger sense of that motion towards the viewer. This action feels more constrained in the vertical. Either format would work but the horizontal, is little stronger IMO, having both a focus on the penguin and a greater implied interaction with the viewer. --GRDN711 (talk) 02:06, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

Info Polymer artifact, probably belonging to a young, possibly infant, human, found in a cooking area right outside habitation ID registration 10154001160001 Swedish National Heritage Board. The location of the find outside the main compound suggests it belonged to a visitor and not one of the indigenous habitants, which can explain why it was not retrieved. Significant DNA deposits on the artifact from a single individual, indicates it was a personal item of some importance to the owner. Photographed in situ and left undisturbed at the site.

Support Just about the only work-of-art on this page. I like the composition, the colourful, sharply focused and very rounded dummy contrasting with the grey weathered wood that is all straight lines. A fine example of the "elements of composition" (see Commons:Photography terms#Composition). In fact, I think I'm going to stick it on that page. -- Colin (talk) 17:18, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Support It's just a nice picture to look at because the composition is good and the colours are pleasant. Also, it's nice to see good quality photos here at FPC - other than mountains during the sunset, panoramas of glaciers or historical paintings (nothing against them, I'm just saying that I'd like to see more diversification here). --Podzemnik (talk) 23:25, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
- Yes Podzemnik and others, diversity is exactly why I make these "odd" nominations. We need really good photo of everything and I prefer to photograph objects in a context with interesting background, rather than sticking them on a clinically white or black backdrop. I can't understand why people find that so provoking, even to the point that some user thinks I've lost it and "need take a brake". That comment will be added to my growing collection of strange things said about my noms. I think I have proved that I can take "normal FPCs" (and my life would be so much easier if I just stuck with the mainstream photos), but for the wide scope of this project I find it more useful to photograph subjects we don't have FPs of. --Cart (talk) 08:45, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
- My guess is the "maybe you need take a brake" comment was a response to your humorous archaeology-parody text (which I very much appreciated). Wilfredor isn't a native English speaker, though improving in that regard in his new home country, so perhaps the advanced-English humour didn't work for him, or perhaps he was trying to respond in kind to your "I may have spent too much time with archeologists" self-deprecation, and that didn't translate either. I wouldn't dwell on it. -- Colin (talk) 09:35, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

- Agree with Cart, our selection is most peculiar and this does have consequences on how images get judged. Most of the world's professional-level photography consists of famous or beautiful people doing things, or cultural and social events. Yet that makes up a tiny proportion of our image bank and a negligible proportion of Commoner-taken photography. The photographic areas where FP photographers are inexperienced, such as professional food and portrait photography, also tend to be the areas where reviewers are most critical, and offer the most ridiculous nit-picking rationales for oppose. So while our guidelines do not limit what we promote, there is very much a bias towards safe well-trodden subjects that reviewers are comfortable with, and a disinclination towards the unfamiliar. Just look at the FP category for this: "Objects / other". We don't really know what box to put this in. Many here lack the tools to judge the unfamiliar and I suggest expanding the photographic experience with some books or visiting a gallery. This is a problem for the project, because we lack good photos of everyday things. Many of our nominations get "wow" from the photographer being fortunate enough to be standing in front of something amazing and simply pressing a button on their expensive cameras. Much harder to get "wow" for the craft of photography itself. And it is a problem if it discourages folk. We recently had some food photos that failed that were simply head and shoulders above the sort of image anyone here is taking. A reviewer, who knows nothing about taking such photos, can of course point at our guidelines and complain about blown highlights or focus. And so we continue to fail to attract any professional level food photographers. We have no shortage of church interiors or glaciated mountains.... -- Colin (talk) 13:12, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

The Richardson quote is, like many quotes, too simplistic. (Jimbo's "a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge" is bullshit when you think about it to any level). It also reflects the experience of a privileged (white, male, western and commissioned by National Geographic) photographer. I really hope, Basile, that you are not for a moment suggesting that Commons FP shouldn't include great photos of mundane subjects.

- Basile has moved my comment from the location where it made sense, to the top level where it appears I am creating some new topic of conversation. This problem with Basile has been discussed before, with examples, and he doesn't listen. Now he has moved on from simply being argumentative for the sake of it, to being disruptive for the sake of it, so it is time to stop feeding this childish attention-seeking behaviour and unwatch. -- Colin (talk) 15:03, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Oppose: while technically excellent and very pleasant to look at, it lacks wow. --СССР (talk) 21:48, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
- I'll
Oppose this because the composition can't match the superior technical quality. My two main problems with it as is are: 1) the positive (rising) diagonals don't fit the mood of the image. It's an easy fix with a horizontal flip. 2) Seems to me a bigger problem is actual composition. Neil Oseman wrote a much better article than what I could articulate, but I'm trying to use this with my wide shooting lately and it indeed yields superior results. Took the liberty to make some quick changes to your image considering his insights, see here: File:Forgotten pacifier on a table in Röe gård cafe alt.jpg. All of the above are in my humblest opinion of course. -- KennyOMG (talk) 22:35, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
- KennyOMG, I mostly agree with your linked article, except where he tries to suggest a new rule and then contradicts himself. The key messages I think are "You could draw any grid you wanted and find some shots [] that matched it" and Ansel Adams: "The so-called rules of photographic composition are [] invalid, irrelevant and immaterial". Many experts complain that these rules are harmful (once a beginner has learned not to stick the subject in the centre all the time) as they limit creativity, which is exactly what you've been creatively experimenting with here. Where you stick an object changes the tension and balance wrt other objects, the background and the frame, and I think there are occasions where the desired tension and balance could place any object just about anywhere. The idea there are four spots or lines that work for all subjects is a bit like the camera exposing for 18% gray: not a terrible place to start, but not a creative one either. -- Colin (talk) 07:28, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

Comment I'm not sure what "dark scribbles" 100cellsman sees (I can see something if I increase the brightness a lot). But comparing with File:Peter-Gabriel-2011 (original).jpg it is clear the distracting background has been Photoshopped out without any skill. This is visible round his hair and a chunk has been taken out of his left cheek. With all the variants and confusion in the original nomination, I wonder if this was overlooked. The other photo Yann links is another incompetent Photoshop job of the same source image, this time attempting to brighten and colour balance a photo lit by stage lights. It is completely blown in many areas, and a false impression of what the stage-lit concert looked like. The nominated photo is used on Wikipedia and is a fine image other than the bad Photoshopping. I wonder if one of our own photographers here, with better skills than simply painting with a black brush, could fix the image based on the original. -- Colin (talk) 11:34, 28 July 2019 (UTC)

Info Colin Ok, since the hairs are tinted by the lights it is almost impossible to separate them from the background. I opted for another solution since a concert photo was requested. I left the different versions in the file history in case one of those is preferred. It's there, do with it as you like. --Cart (talk) 14:54, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
- Photoshop has some ability to "decontaminate" colours but I'm not expert enough with it. Even if the background was originally black, his hairs will have a coloured glow from stage lighting -- and we are perhaps more forgiving of this rim-light effect with artificial scenes than outdoors, say. I think my efforts are an improvement on the original attempt. For most purposes, such as a Wikipedia thumbnail, I think the lack of any distracting colour background is useful. -- Colin (talk) 15:02, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
