Done Thanks for the note. Fixed the stitching error. The tree is a swiss pine which has a very tortouos growth do to the harsh weather conditions there as you can see also from the broken top due to very recent storms.

Weak oppose The dark heavy beam at the top is like obstructing the view. While the most interesting part is in my opinion the stream at the bottom, it is cut too tight. We want to see more of this water going out. I find the long exposure successful, but not the composition -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:47, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- I included the fallen redwood tree on purpose, as it's one of the characteristics of the creek. Unlike in most parts of Western Europe, forests here in Northern California are being left alone and look much more natural (without forest management cleaning everything up within a couple of weeks) than e.g. in Germany. Now, with regard to the "obstruction", I composed the image on purpose like that. To me, it evokes the question "Hey, what's behind that corner?" (which, for me, as someone who lives here, is what I'm asking myself all the time when I saunter through old redwood groves) – but in the end, it comes down to a matter of taste and I certainly respect your view of the matter. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 03:56, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

(which, for me, as someone who lives here, is what I'm asking myself all the time when I saunter through old redwood groves) – but in the end, it comes down to a matter of taste and I certainly respect your view of the matter. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 03:56, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
Comment - For what it's worth, I really disagree with the opposers. I like this version much better. And it's precisely the tree trunk that differentiates this from many other photos of streams and is such a satisfying thing to see at the top of the picture frame. The other version just doesn't have the same satisfying alternation of lights and darks, and most of the moss is cut from the trunk. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:21, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- And for what it's worth also, I really disagree with the supporters ;-) The composition of this version is too static for a stream with moving water. Here it seems to be only one subject, the rock with moss on the right, which is not captivating enough to be a whole. Unfortunately the eyes are drained to this part with no exit. I don't find the moss essential at the top, it looks more like a heavy and huge stop your way. At the bottom, the image seems sectioned, as if something was missing. We need this restful area after the fall -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:14, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Support --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:34, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
Support Yes, this version is much better in my opinion, the composition is clearly improved due to these two reciprocal lines starting from the top and bottom corners at the left, making like a symmetry with a horizontal axis in the middle, where the sight is lead. Pleasant balance now. And the stream is also better. Nice shot -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:53, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
Support I like this version better. I like that you can see more of the stream. Also, a piece of light in the back, where my eyes focused first, is a whole, enclosed element. --Podzemnik (talk) 05:10, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Comment - I tend to agree with Basile. I'd ask if you'd like to darken the background for contrast, but there are voters here who care greatly about falsifying bokeh, even though it's per se blurred, so I think this one may have to be withdrawn.

Done More space added on the left.

Support Thanks Basile. One day, I'd like to see your "great technique" to change your lens :) Regards, --Podzemnik (talk) 06:57, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- I learned this trick on youtube a long time ago (video in French). The basic is to keep your body around your neck, and to prepare your lens in one hand like "in the starting block". As soon as you remove the previous lens, in less than one second, immediately you come with the other one, the body orientated to the bottom, so the dusts cannot infiltrate. It's a very quick operation, and you need good hands to catch both (sometimes heavy) lenses, but it's been working very well. And the day you have a single dust spot, bring it to the maintenance, and do the same :-) -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:44, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Support per King. After reading all the opposes I was ready to see a total disaster area when I pixel-peeped. I didn't. Yes, the highlights on the cloud and the waterfall could be dimmed a bit. Yes, the sharpening of the ridgeline is a little hard to ignore. But I don't find the colors too lurid (maybe just a matter of personal taste, I guess). We have forgiven worse in the past here, I think. Daniel Case (talk) 17:41, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
Comment However, the contrast is too high, don't you think? Look at the top part of the rock-cliff overhanging the walkway; there is quite a substantial bit of underexposure clipping. But I do agree it is actually quite non-chaotic when you pixel-peep. ― Gerifalte Del Sabana 23:51, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oh, we don't need to pixel-peep, it's really too obvious at screen size already
Far too much clarity, contrast, vibrance, saturation, certainly a ton of local adjustments, and also Photoshop filters to make the view as artificial as possible. On the same Flickr account we can see this author is mainly a Photoshop player creating photomontages and fake pictures (1,2,3,4, 5, 6). Also hundreds of similar overprocessed works : 7, 8, 9, 10. But I agree this is a question of taste, and I'm sure if this picture got promoted here, it would reach a high score in POTY 2019, since this kind of render is the last trend. The only problem is in 10 years, when the tastes will have changed, then it will just look strange, like old and bizarre -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:23, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
- Compared to the ones you linked to, I find the processing here rather restrained. There's no soft focus, no too-obvious HDR. I don't think we should consider it in the context of his other work just because it wouldn't make FP here. Daniel Case (talk) 18:54, 26 February 2019 (UTC)

Info Should probably give some context here. This is an early 19th century lithograph, very much in the popular style of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Graininess is part of the medium. It depicts the meeting of King George IV and Rossini during the latter's time in the UK, with the typical humour of the time. The point is in the poses - the King is on the left. I believe the high framing relates to high ceilings being a sign of wealth, in any case, when the artist carefully gives a frame to the image to make sure the space is included, you include it.

Oppose On top of what others wrote above, processing went a bit too far for me in the latest version (especially the sky). I think version #2 looks much less artificial. --El Grafo (talk) 12:51, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Keep I believe the current practice on Commons is to not delist an old FP when a newer, better FP comes along, unless the old FP falls far short of modern standards. You can start a discussion on Commons talk:Featured picture candidates if you'd like to change the delisting standards. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 23:27, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Info As per Commons talk:Featured picture candidates#Doublons - Double nominations, S. DÉNIEL is sorting and fixing some of the cluttered FP gallery pages and has found some inconsistencies. In this case a new better version of this engraving was promoted without the right 'delist and replace' procedure and we ended up with two FP versions of the same image. This delist request is just to formalize this in a proper way. --Cart (talk) 20:13, 23 February 2019 (UTC) (Original nomination)

Oppose This looks like a shot you'd take while scouting an area for subjects, a sketch of a future picture to take on another day. The light is meh, the fish are clumped at the edge of the pond. The subject certainly has potential, the composition is not bad, but I think that was just not a great moment for taking the shot. --El Grafo (talk) 09:32, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

- Excuse me, but you have improved them with respect to what? The colors are definitely unnaturals for wild sowbreads. Compare them to File:Cyclamen (8457919409).jpg or File:Eastern Sowbread - Cyclamen coum (32909809374).jpg, for instance. --Harlock81 (talk) 15:52, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

- Answer: From the many colors of cyclamen I specially selected this color to photograph. Because I think it is a very beautiful and striking color. Opinions differ about tastes.--Famberhorst (talk) 06:35, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
- I'm sorry if you have misunderstood me: it's not just a question of taste. I was just surprised (and a bit dubious, I admit) that a wild plant, in a natural reserve (De Famberhorst), could show flowers of the same colors of common cultivars, while most of the plants of the same specie shows a different shade of magenta.
- I had thinked that either the red balance could have been altered accidentaly, or the plant was a cultivar and not a wild one, or the specie could not have been correctly identified. That's all. I thank you for your explanations. --Harlock81 (talk) 12:28, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
- Extra information: Cyclamen coum are not indigenous in the Netherlands. They fall under the Stinsenplanten. They are fairly hardy, wild plants. The cyclamen sow in different colors. Color is also selected.--Famberhorst (talk) 17:04, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment Hm. Quality is great and it's a nice place but somehow I think the point of view was not chosen perfectly. The chapel doesn't separate enough from the background. I'd prefered a composition with blue sky in the background of the chapel and the mountain right from the chapel (means you should have stepped some meters to the right).

Oppose - It's an interesting painting, but I don't find myself wowed by a faithful copy of a painting with this degree of damage. If this were a photo of the painting itself, I might have a higher tolerance for the damage, but it just seems odd to go through all of the trouble to paint a copy and be this mechanical about making sure every bit of damage is in the copy. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:48, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose per Ikan. Daniel Case (talk) 03:22, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
Support The reasons to do a faithfull copy of a fresco may be numerouses. For istance, retain the aspect of a fresco which has been produced on a wall that has been subsequently interested by structural damages or by moisture, which could determine the lost of the fresco itself; or else, allow more people to see the fresco in an accessible way; or to organically develope in a museum the history of art related to a country or to a colture. The copy may become itself an artwork. This photography continues what was started by Vladimir Makuc on 1958. --Harlock81 (talk) 19:52, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment The guideline is a guide not an absolute rule, hence the name. And it says "should not be downsized", not "must not be downsized", so there is still some leniency for downsized photos and we have promoted a lot of such images in recent times. Some are even in the POTY finals now. We can strive to not downsize photos and frown upon heavily downsized nominations, but they are not 100% forbidden. If you want this to happen you can start a discussion (yet again) on the FPC talk page. --Cart (talk) 13:33, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
Neutral Good composition. But I don't see the focus on the head / eyes. It's more on the tail. --Hockei (talk) 12:29, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hockei, please do not use the {{n}} template since the FPC Bot can't read it. Use the {{neutral}} instead. I have corrected that for you. Yes, it is a very annoying but it's what it is right now. --Cart (talk) 13:20, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- OK, I didn't know that. --Hockei (talk) 13:23, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Not because of the downsizing, if there was any, but because if there was downsizing it didn't do the picture any favors, technically. Daniel Case (talk) 18:14, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose per Commons:Do not disrupt Commons to illustrate a point. Poco writes above: "Out of that discussion you already managed that since then I haven't uploaded any image with 50 MPx anymore to the project, how far do you still want to go?". Prima donna photographers can go take a hike. We're here to take, upload and select the best images we can for Commons. Take criticism or ignore it, but don't make threats and sabotage. If you start "vandalising" your uploads out of some petty dispute at FPC or QI, and if FPC/QI is actually causing you to reduce the quality of your uploads, perhaps you should take a break from FPC/QI. You should be uploading your best images in best quality regardless of what anyone here thinks of them.
- On the matter of downsizing, this is still a 20MP image from a 600mm lens. According to DxoMark this lens on a 5DSR only resolves about 18MP and with a 2x extender on it, that's only going to get worse. So perhaps 12MP, which would imply the sensor has double the linear resolution of the lens+extender. So I think it is reasonable if one's sensor is hugely out-resolving one's optics, that some downsizing of the result may be appropriate. Per User:Colin/PixelPeeping, it is silly if we treat 12MP, 20MP, 36MP and 50MP cameras to the same 100dpi pixel peeping on our monitors. So, Basile I don't think your getting so upset about some relatively mild downsizing in a 20MP photo is helping the project. Every single one of Diliff's interior cathedral photos are downsized, often by 50%, but they are still detailed and high resolution and worthy of FP. I suspect the issues with this photo are that the focus isn't on the eye, and that at 1/400s the bird may have moved. -- Colin (talk) 12:35, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Poco is trying to blame me for his personal choice to downsize pictures. "You already managed" he says, as if I was responsible for the deficiency of his camera. This disempowerment is unhealthy for two reasons : First, because everyone should take their actions. As you decide not to follow the recommendations, that's your own problem, not the neighbor's. When evaluating images the reviewer should consider the same guidelines as the nominator. Then, because this interpretation of my speech is absolutely wrong and misleading. My request is to keep the best resolution available (after upload), which means 50 Mpx would be perfect (though not mandatory so big). Poco is like saying "I cannot cook tasty carots because you don't let me waste my haricots". Pitiful nonsense. Good haricots should not be wasted is my humble opinion, but cooked carots can be tasty, too. Easy. We're free to vote here, to express a subjective opinion regarding a candidature through the standards and guidelines of the project. We can agree or disagree with a vote, but Poco turns the situation againt this freedom, insinuating my contribution is disrupting since I dare to follow the recommendations. Lol. As I said many times, if you want to discuss and change the rules, do it (here is the talk page). I may respect them too, afterwards.
- Concerning the size of the file, I also agree with Daniel it didn't do the picture any favors, technically. The focus is on the wings, not on the head -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:46, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
- Well, Diego. Can I join you on your hike? Colin has suggested I take a break too. Charles (talk) 08:25, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
- Considering your "I will upload fewer widlife images of encyclopaedic value to Wikipaedia projects if the QI theshold is increased. Is that what the community wants?" is a very similar threat to sabotage your uploads if you don't get your way, it sounds like you two are made for each other. -- Colin (talk) 09:51, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

- You and Poco are the only ones here threatening to throw their toys out of the pram when they get upset. That is not the way to deal with criticism at FPC. We might not all agree on the "rules" or whether something is an FP or not, but once you start making threats to upload fewer images or to downsize them all out of spite, the only grown-up response is to ask you both to grow up or go play somewhere else. -- Colin (talk) 10:49, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment very pretty, but how near real life is it? Charles (talk) 10:28, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Exactly the kind of comment that kept me away from FPC the last months. Thank you for reminding me on this, Charlesjsharp. My wikibreak was still not long enough to help me get a cooler attitude, sorry. BTW, how near real life is the use of a flash in wildlife photography? --Code (talk) 11:37, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry I didn't mean that it wasn't a artistic image, it is. But you did imply it was 'real' by saying blue hour. I never try to hide that I've used flash in wildlife photography. Charles (talk) 13:27, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Charles, this is real blue hour photo. If you make a long exposure shot at blue hour, it will make the sky/scene look like midday. To bring it back to what it actually looks like, you use a ND filter. That filter sort of "cancels out" the "brightening" of the image the long-exposure does. I just guess you haven't made enough of such photos to know this technique. --Cart (talk) 13:56, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- I haven't made any. I don't need to. The process you describe produces a nice image, but does not equal a 'real blue hour photo'. Charles (talk) 14:15, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- A similar picture, also reviewed by Code last month, appeared completely overprocessed for many of us. This electric blue seems artificial, but the question of real colors is interesting yes -- Basile Morin (talk) 14:38, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- The only parameter you manipulate with this technique is time since the ND filter is totally neutral (ND stands for neutral density), the color is not affected. Color is controlled by other processes. --Cart (talk) 14:47, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Well, using an ND filter is not really complicated. Set your filter, set long-exposure : done. Kind of f/32 ISO 50. But it doesn't mean the saturation has not been pushed too far later in Lightroom. Like this blue snow that was "accurate white balance" in Code's eyes -- Basile Morin (talk) 15:28, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Saturation is another discussion, and if you don't agree with it you should 'oppose' on those grounds. Charles was questioning if this was indeed blue hour or just the filter. Re snow photo: Snow can often appear to look blue to the naked eye in the evening/night since it reflects the blue sky and the blue of shadows enhance it, so not that far-fetched but can also be exaggerated in post. --Cart (talk) 15:47, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Blue hour sky is not like that in reality (neither blue snow), otherwise it would look familiar and not so strange. This picture is obviously manipulated and slightly oversaturated, see Blue hour on Wikipedia for more accurate examples of how this blue looks like. That one is a kind of concept of "blue hour" working in imagination or in memory, but not a natural blue, faithful in real life. Such kind of electric color you meet it either at noon only, or on your screen after increasing the levels a bit far in post-process. But of course it makes your concept very striking like something incredible where there is only a bridge with yellow lights and some stones in the foreground. I'm not saying this would be a bad picture with natural intensity, but we need to see the truth to judge honestly. For now it looks quite uninteresting to me because this is rather an ordinary scenery where the colors have been multiplied x times. A similar composition with long exposure that was much more successful is this bridge of San Francisco also with stones in the foreground, but natural colors. Day shot, though really exceptional angle and view, that make the difference. Cart says "you should oppose" and perhaps I will do so, but for now it's not necessary because this nomination has already been withdrawn -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:38, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

- Cmao20, you may not have been around FPC lately so you probably don't know how hostile the FPC is towards artistic photos these days. Especially some less diplomatic users are rather vocal about this. It's the reason why I've made the same decision as Code and not nominate my own photos here any more. I admire Code's guts to take a chance here again, and I followed this to see what the reaction to his nominations might be. --Cart (talk) 13:07, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

- I agree, but there are too many users who confuse the goal of Commons and its FP with that of the Wikipedias and their FPs. This occurs even if the goal of Commons states very clearly that it is a repository of images for all kinds of projects (including eleven other wiki-projects), not just the Wikipedia.

Support - I like the composition. I'm glad you noticed it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:41, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Looks very nice as a thumbnail but the full size has some problems; green CA in the trees, for instance (see top left). Also loses sharpness rapidly as we move away from the centre.--Peulle (talk) 10:51, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose per Peulle; I also see some dust spots (or droplets on the lens?) in the portion of the pond near lower right where it's mostly reflected sky. Also, re the composition: it looks like something that should either be part of a larger image or could be cropped down to something else. It just doesn't, for me, stand out from other pictures of woodland reflected in a small waterbody on a beautiful day. Daniel Case (talk) 16:22, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
Comment There is no dust spot or what ever you think to see. It is a living water in that swim animals and things from plants. The rest what you wrote I don't understand what you mean. I just show the "Fließ" and like the reflecting pants (and the clouds) in the water. --Hockei (talk) 19:53, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hockei, it would really help us who maintain this page if you used the normal {{withdrawn}} and added you signature after it. Your way of inserting your name in the template makes it a bit hard to spot since the text "I withdraw my nomination" gets hidden. We are happy to help you with closing, archiving, etc. but please make it more visible. Thanks! --Cart (talk) 21:26, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

Info An extremely high-resolution image of the interior of St Margaret Pattens, a church located on Eastcheap in Central London. The current church was built by Sir Christopher Wren in 1687, and is notable for its 200-foot-high spire. I love how the resolution of this image is so high that the lettering of the Lord's Prayer and the Apostle's Creed next to the altar can be read in pin-sharp detail.

Comment I think however this is another example of Diliff including too much vertical. They eye is drawn up to the ceiling rose, which is oddly angled due to extreme perspective. The orange-brown of the ceiling is a bit distracting. If one takes a cut just below the ceiling line, you get a much more natural scene that I think is an improvement. -- Colin (talk) 11:02, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- That is a sensible point. I personally don't find the distortion of the ceiling rose distracting but I can see where you are coming from. I find your suggested crop featurable too, but we'll see what others think. Cmao20 (talk) 12:13, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

Support -- Milseburg (talk) 15:27, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Your composition is split with "leading lines" leading off in two directions, neither of which have much content to entertain the viewer. I've suggested a crop as an example. In this the left path leads up to the couple who are looking into your composition.

Info I'm cleaning up several images made by the photographers of Museum of Veterinary Anatomy FMVZ USP, we already have some similar featured photos from the same GLAM project as:
- File:Avestruz alta.jpg
- File:Skull of crocodile (Crocodylidae).jpg
- File:Suíno alta.jpg
- ...
- I selected the ones that do not have major faults, and as there are around 60 very good images, with a very high educational value, I decided to spare the set in more than one to be analysed, edited by Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton - uploaded by Joalpe and Sturm - nominated by Rodrigo.Argenton -- Thank you for your time.-- Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton m 04:51, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

Question Is it a set ? I don't imagine Llez (or any other good photographer) nominating all their stock of potential photos in a single nomination like that. That's too much work for the reviewer(s) in my opinion. Regards -- Basile Morin (talk) 09:56, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose I can't see this as a set per Commons FPC definitions, it's more of a collection. --Cart (talk) 13:17, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
You need to decide...
Here the problem was that the images are "similar", the first answer was: "feel free to make a group nomination next time for similar photos", so I did.
@Basile Morin, George Chernilevsky, and W.carter: because of this discussion I decided to group all of they together, and yes, is an effort to see all, I can choose a smaller amount to be analysed, but first you need to choose, it's to nominate one by one, or is to nominate in a set?
This image: File:Superfície não orientável - Bordo trifólio.jpg is not featured because it's too similar to this File:Superfície - bordo trifólio.jpg, that do not have any characteristics in common
Thank you. -- Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton m 16:44, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
- Please do not display any other files on the nomination since the FPC Bot will read them as "Alternatives" and this will mess up the nom, we can all open the files to have a look at them. I have fixed the coding for you. --Cart (talk) 17:24, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
Comment What goes into a set is probably a bit subjective. It varies and depends on your view of the items. I can understand that the mathematical forms look totally different to a mathematician, while they look very similar to me. These skeletons of animals of different species form a very large and diverse group. In the past I've only seen such photos nominated separately. Groups of skeletons of animals related to each other might be an alternative. (Birds, bovines, reptiles, carnivores, etc) In a set, I want to be able to see a connection between the photos as well as some things that can be valuable to compare. --Cart (talk) 17:49, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Aside from faults with certain specific images, this does not constitute a set under my understanding of the criteria. A set can either show different aspects of the same subject or it can show different subjects; in the latter case, it must be an exhaustive list of all instances of a category, not a sampling. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:28, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Noise, per Peulle; also it gets distorted near the corners, and frankly it seems like this image is another that saw a lot of potential and tried to capture it in one image where two or three smaller ones might have done. Daniel Case (talk) 18:28, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose In the left part the room looks higher than in the right part, the floor is leaning upwards and the ceiling is leaning down. --Michielverbeek (talk) 20:50, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose With that ceiling, I could not call the room ordinary, but the photo is taking in too much. Another angle (perhaps along the chair lines with the windows in the back and the lamps hanging in front of them, excluding the tech equipment at the sides) might have been better. Please try again if you have the opportunity. It's a good documentation though. --Cart (talk) 10:06, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment - I haven't decided whether to oppose a feature or not.

Question Paris 16, could you please explain briefly why you raised the black levels in your restoration? It makes the whole thing look very washed out, worse than the original. – Lucas 08:37, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment, Paris 16, Ikan Kekek: I think I found the culprit: the image nominated has a PhaseOne color profile and it looks very washed out in my browser. When I import it into Photoshop and convert back to RGB, it looks much better and the mood of the scene fits the levels. Maybe upload a new version in RGB to ensure everyone sees the levels (and maybe colors too) right? – Lucas 14:10, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

Support - The form works for more, and I don't care whether it's black & white or color, but I think black & white accentuates the snow. DoF is maybe a bit short for me. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:36, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose I like what's going on in the foreground, and I do think b&w was a good choice for this. However, the background is very busy – it really distracts me from the main subject without providing anything interesting to look at.

- Wilfredor, even we who have lived all our life in the cold north have trouble being creative during the cold months. So it will take some time before you, who comes from a warm place, will find the right things to photograph. Normally during winter, I only take my camera outside 2-3 time per month. Snow is so difficult to photograph in a creative way (ice is easier). The trick is to be very active with the camera the rest of the year, especially in spring and autumn, and spend winter developing and fixing your photos. Be well, and I hope you become more comfortable in your new life. --Cart (talk) 09:19, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Neutral We are a bit more lenient on underwater photography, but still I think the quality is not quite up to par, with noise visible at large thumbnail size. Very nice composition though. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:36, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
noise and shallow DOF (f/2.8) Seven Pandas (talk) 01:17, 18 March 2019 (UTC)Neutral
- Seven Pandas, f/2.8 is only shallow DoF on a full-frame sensor. This GoPro camera has a sensor nearly 6 times smaller than that. According to mmcalc this 3mm lens at f/2.8 on a 1/2.3" sensor is equivalent to a 17mm ultra-wide lens at f/16 on a full-frame. Accordingly the camera is actually "focus free" -- it is set so nearly everything from about a foot to infinity is acceptably in focus. -- Colin (talk) 09:18, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
Support clearly better. Seven Pandas (talk) 22:49, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

The composition/crop feels a bit crammed at the sides, the level of detail is not that great and the position of the sun makes for a rather flat image. In my opinion, all of this is handled better in File:Lower Manhattan from Governors Island September 2016 panorama 2.jpg. The chopper is about the only thing that sets it apart from similar views and I'm afraid that's not quite enough for me. All that being said, the image notes are very useful, so I think this would make an excellent VI. --El Grafo (talk) 09:54, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Info created by Ruhrfisch - uploaded by Ruhrfisch - nominated by Ruhrfisch -- Ruhrfisch (talk) 03:25, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
Info This photograph was uploaded as part of Wiki Loves Monuments 2018 and was selected as "Highly Commended" (see here for the top ten Ireland photos). Ruhrfisch (talk) 12:05, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
Support -- Ruhrfisch (talk) 03:25, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Hi Ruhrfisch and congratulations on your success at WLM. I'm afraid it isn't up to the standard expected at Commons FP for castles and similar views. I appreciate a 16th century tower house might not have perfectly vertical walls, and the image has no true horizon, but it does look like it is tilted anti-clockwise. The time of day is unfortunate as it means most of the near side of the castle is in shade. This is not only less attractive than if lit, but reduces the details we can see. The composition includes some leaves from a near bush, along the bottom and right, which could do with being cropped off. The whole image is a bit soft and these bush leaves are quite sharp, which makes me think your camera has focused on the bush rather than the castle. It would have been ideal if the Irish flag was flying, which it is in some other photos of this castle, and is always a nice touch. -- Colin (talk) 12:51, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Thanks for contributing this image to the project, but I'm afraid I agree with Colin. I don't actually mind the composition, but I do think you may have missed the focus on the castle itself. Cmao20 (talk) 14:06, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment I didn't make any saturation adjustments, it's just the end of the blue hour. I had a version without the light trails, too, but I found this one more entertaining. The building is by a busy highway and I thought including the light trails would be a good representation of it. --Podzemnik (talk) 14:32, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
- Perhaps vibrance is too strong, as the yellows are very intense. Concerning the light trails, I agree they're distracting because the street is partly cut.

Oppose Love the fog and the location, but the image is not quite there for me. It lacks a clear subject or compositional idea for me: Neither the raspberry (?) scrub on the left nor the tree/hedge on the right are particularly interesting, but they dominate the scene, distracting from the nice-looking tree in the background. Or, if you say they are supposed to be the subject, then that nice-looking tree in the background distracts from that. The white balance is too warm for my taste, makes it look more like a sand storm rather than a foggy day. Or maybe not warm enough, if this was a golden hour shot (but it doesn't look like one to me) --El Grafo (talk) 10:34, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
Support -- George Chernilevsky talk 11:15, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Agree with El Grafo. The two shrubs, left and right, are not very nice and distract from the two central trees. I don't mind the WB, but the composition doesn't convince me. As an artistic photo, with mainly fog and no distinct subject, we need a better disposition of the elements in this space. Perhaps too much random here, or only shapes almost hidden. Immediately my eyes go to the right and feel not rewarded -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:46, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

- It's possible that there was the "edge" of a cloud at the parting line originally, but as I see it something in the capture and/or post-processing (not necessarily your fault) made a harsh split of tones out of it there, with some speckles inbetween. I don't want to belabor this any more, I see artifacts that I'm convinced are not natural, but if I am alone in this it's okay.

- I don't understand. Please could you explain which "reason" you're talking about ? Source. For me this is an awesome testimony of an amazing invention -- Basile Morin (talk) 06:44, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
- I find the effect of all the rats running at me unpleasant, but now that I realize this is meant to replicate a historic invention, I've crossed out my oppose vote. I'd support this for VI, but I still don't think a moving GIF actually has the same effect as the Phenakistiscope, because it's so common to see moving GIFs online. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:16, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
- Well, this is a modern technique applied to a 186 year-old document. Personally, I like the kaleidoscopic effect of this creation. But not animated, it would be very static for what it's supposed to show. Yes of course today moving GIFs are common online, but the phenakistiscope is regarded as one of the first forms of moving media entertainment that paved the way for the future motion picture and film industry. Today many trendy websites bring these old precursor drawings to the light. This piece is certainly one of the best quality and highest resolution we can find on the web in 2019 -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:51, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
- But in the original technique, didn't you just look at "one" of running rats (or procession of rats) through a slit? Like this image shows. Just seeing one running rat would be less dizzying. Seeing this multi-rat version is only possible with gif. Or? --Cart (talk) 14:25, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
- This works like an optical illusion. The retinal persistence is the secret behind these animations. The GIF linked above is also an approximation. Through the hole, in reality we would see 10% images, by interruption at regular intervals, and 90% black foreground (that would be much more dizzying IMO). The advantage here is to see both the whole wheel and the animation. Hypnotizing for many viewers
. Today young and creative designers like Ana Taberko use this old invention for modern designs (it sounds like we can make new dishes with old good recipes). Similar FP in German and Persian Wikipedia -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:03, 16 March 2019 (UTC)

Support Nice composition -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:53, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose. The composition looks off with an important object, the ring, cut off awkardly along with her second arm. In general the setting doesn't become clear: why has she the ring? Does the crowd behind her have something to do with it? Does she smile for the crowd or some individual? As it is no story is told and it makes it look like a random snapshot. – Lucas 08:31, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

Support --S. DÉNIEL (talk) 10:15, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
Support It is very difficult to capture the concept of 'wind' and rain since even if you and your camera are almost blown away, things usually look rather still in the resulting photo and the rain becomes frozen in a misty layer obscuring details. Also hard to balance the shutter time; if you want visible rain streaks, you get very blurry plants. Here the patterns of bending reeds and gushing water help to make visible the movement of wind and rain. The mono color also helps to bring out the ominous mood in the photo. Category changed to "Rain" since there are no geographical sub-categories in "Natural phenomena". --Cart (talk) 10:29, 16 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment Thank you. I really like the light in this picture, with the beginning of civil twilight even though the sky is cloudy there is a blue tint to it and it lights up the church beautifully imo. I think the tree is a feature, I like the way it stands next to this modest church and being the right time of the year it doesn't block the view (in contrast with the other version where I unexpectedly happened to bicycle to the same spot again five months later and the tree is too prominent). --Trougnouf (talk) 13:15, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment Help me if there's something else wrong. Thanks. --Milan Bališin (talk) 17:55, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
Comment - He's right. Just to give a few examples: How can you have categories for both Vihorlat and Vihorlat (národná prírodná rezervácia)? It's obvious that one is a parent of the other, isn't it? At the very least, it's redundant. Also, you have numerous snow categories and then "Snow scenery", an obvious parent category. And isn't "Winter landscapes" a parent for one of the other categories? I want you to clean this up before it's featured, and I may have to join A.Savin in opposing if you don't. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:35, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Support You liked (and promoted) the last pano from the area, this one is IMHO even more impressive, much bigger and of higher quality. -- Poco2 18:58, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
Comment The previous one had an excellent composition, sadly not all 360 degrees panoramas share that quality no matter how big they are. IMO a normal jpeg is often an inferior medium for this kind of panorama since the composition tends to look a bit random. See note. --Cart (talk) 21:35, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

Support I do get what people mean about this not being the most balanced or aesthetic composition, but the immense resolution and detail make this an impressive technical feat and an important and useful document. Cmao20 (talk) 17:11, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Sorry, the composition is very nice and probably FP level, but it falls short in technical quality. It looks oversharpened and with quite a lot of artefacts visible at full resolution.

For example one curved branch of the tree is interfering badly with the architectural lines of the building. The first floor is cut in a unpleasant way. Reflections on the windows on the top.

Comment - This is a good photo. I'll think about it some more, but I'm not really feeling it as an FP, at least at the moment.

Info Komsomolskaya-KL station of Moscow Metro, all by A.Savin. Here is the original nomination. Now, after some consideration, I have reworked the second picture a bit to give more pleasant levels etc. Although there are no trains, I find this one better, also given the more generous crop on the ceiling. This crop is not possible on the first image. I also think, maybe, it is even better without trains, as they obscure some detail on the wall and they itself are not that nice. So, all in all I think the photo w/o trains should be featured and the photo with trains should then be delisted, because it's very similar.

Support - The right crop might not be ideal, but I don't really care. Great feeling. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:44, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
- Agree the sun is not exactly centered. This is standard 3:2 ratio (ready to print), and I prefer not to cut either the sky or the bottom giving space to the boat. Also the margin at the right can be considered as lead room. But your remark is constructive. Thanks -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:15, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
- Actually, my only nitpick is that you've bisected an islet of vegetation. But so what? Landscape painters do that kind of thing all the time. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:31, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
- I don't think the blue sky at the top helps the mood. A more landscape aspect (16:9 or even narrower) would be better, and I'd prefer the boat further to the left in the composition. Unlike landscape painters, we can't just paint the boat where we want it, though. -- Colin (talk) 12:21, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
- After several attempts of framing, including a 16:9 ratio, I've decided to keep the 3:2 format, but removing the little islet of vegetation at the right, as suggested by Ikan. I think it improves a little bit the composition, and centers the sun slightly better. An alternative could be proposed but to be honest, I don't think these slight differences change so much here. Then, because there are currently more color shades in the sky when not cut, I keep this 3:2. Thanks for the reviews -- Basile Morin (talk) 14:03, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

Info created/uploaded/nominated by — Rhododendrites talk | 04:57, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
Support In Staten Island there's a park where, many years ago, a local eccentric set up a whole bunch of birdhouses a few feet from the ocean (i.e.), and now other people in the neighborhood keep them up. They were built for migrating purple martins, but the rest of the year other birds call them home. This starling was there, keeping watch, the whole time I was there in January. A starling isn't the most exciting bird, but something about this picture (maybe the bird, maybe the light, maybe the simplicity) makes me enjoy looking at it, so I figure it's worth seeing if others agree. :) — Rhododendrites talk | 04:57, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
Support Well balanced, very nice, homely yet airy ambiance and the starling is surprisingly sharp. --Cart (talk) 10:05, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose overexpose area, whites too bright Ezarateesteban 11:38, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
- I will never understand why very white can't be very white on FPC. Not all photos need to include 50 shades of gray. --Cart (talk) 12:04, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
- Agree with Ezarate. The right part is very bright. That is one very mitigating factor which prevents me from supporting now (even if the bird is cute). Cart, it's nice to discuss but please also let the reviewers have their own feelings and express these feelings on a candidature even if they disagree with your vote and personal taste. Ezarate doesn't say a wrong thing, doesn't talk about blown highlights for example, but just feel that there's an overexposed area. I share this feeling. Perhaps the picture can be improved in its overall aspect, perhaps it cannot because the light is just harsh. Aesthetic consideration in my opinion -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:53, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- @Ezarate and Basile Morin: I've just uploaded a new version which recovers more of the highlights than I thought I'd be able to. What do you think? — Rhododendrites talk | 01:24, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- Not sure this local correction has improved the whole because the right side of the two boards on the left has been forgotten -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:11, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- @Basile Morin: Good point! These were harder for some reason. One more new version uploaded. — Rhododendrites talk | 02:54, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
Support Ezarate, I checked in Photoshop and the highlights are controlled well, just a few pixels are clipped in non-connected areas. There is still plenty of structure of the wood in the data. My opinion is that small surfaces that are very bright when seen in person are allowed to be very close to pure white. There are minor CAs on cracks in the wood though. – Lucas 13:39, 27 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment Too late, but I like this picture. The simple, stark lines of the composition, as well as the way the frame is dominated by only a few colours - white, blue and the black of the bird itself - mean that for me it's an appealing photo to look at. If anything I prefer the version where the highlights haven't been 'recovered' - pure white exists in real life, and we shouldn't be afraid of it. I guess most people disagree, but thanks for nominating it anyway. Cmao20 (talk) 13:13, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

- You can read the various arguments at en:wp but they are a bit dated (2008) with concerns about large file size (not sure why since WP only displays a thumb). Since Commons is a media repository, and any of the other edits can be derived from the original, and there isn't really anything wrong with the original other than being huge and a little soft if you pixel-peep, I think we should support the original version.

Oppose Sorry, the composition is really good, but the image needs more sharpness. Please look for example at the details top left. A better resolution would be good too. --XRay talk 10:19, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
Weak support purely because of the composition. I think this is such a striking motif that it deserves to be featured. The resolution doesn't bother me too much because it's not the kind of subject that benefits from looking at it in fine detail, such as a church interior or one of Poco's dune panoramas - although higher resolution would be nice, the image is striking and impressive even at this size. Perhaps I was wrong that the iPhone can't take FP-quality shots. Cmao20 (talk) 13:14, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

- There are certainly differences in the way these skeletons are photographed. For example, some are yellower or darker than others. But overall, this is a notable achievement, even if a little eerie. Also, it's fitting but in a way odd that one of the skeletons is of a mutt, because there are so many different mixtures possible in a mutt. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:19, 20 March 2019 (UTC)Support
Oppose I don't see how this is different to Commons:Featured picture candidates/Set/MAV I. Canidae is a huge family of creatures. As others have noted, I wouldn't expect a collection of Lez's shells to be nominated as a set, or a collection of Jee's butterflies to be nominated as a set. The final one (Saint Bernard dog) is poor quality. As the FP page says: "Not acceptable: A few breeds of cats". Here we have a few species/breeds of canids: there are 34 species, and hundreds of breeds of dogs. The fact that this may be the entire collection currently at MAV isn't IMO enough to make this a set, it just tells me that their collection is rather limited. -- Colin (talk) 08:34, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment Interesting, and high EV. However I think there is too much contrast/light compared to the original version. Regards, Yann (talk) 19:51, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose the left and right edges of the statue have CAs, the sidewalk in the very bottom of frame is not aligned well – Lucas 08:06, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
Comment - I didn't notice CA and I'm still not sure I really see any at absolute pixel-peeping size, though I'm sure Podzemnik will fix that if he can see it. But as for the sidewalk: If you want this view past the monument, you by definition cannot have the sidewalk be perfectly horizontal. I hope you mean "not aligned well" in some other way. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:19, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
Comment From what I can see the camera could have been moved to the right to align the sidewalk and the elements visible behind the statue (islands etc. ) would have looked the same. I don't see any particluar thing in the background that would be obscured then, for example. Also the fencepost in front of the statue would then be nicely in center. – Lucas 08:38, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose The light is wrong for me.--Peulle (talk) 08:32, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
Support Yes, I see what you like about this one. It helps that there's such an interesting sky. Quality issues are for me very minor given the compositional merits of the photo. Cmao20 (talk) 13:27, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose The landscape has something, the building is simply ugly -- Basile Morin (talk) 15:10, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- I respect your opinion, but I don't find it ugly. It's a British war memorial - they all look relatively similar, but they're supposed to be stark and sombre, and I personally find an austere beauty in it. Cmao20 (talk) 18:46, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

Neutral I'll rather not pick sides. --BoothSift 03:41, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose I agree the light on the monument is not good. Compare to File:War memorial, Millport, Cumbrae, Scotland 02.jpg with golden light. This monument is not that impressive with back lighting. Also agree that a step to the right might have aligned the fence more centrally and the path more perpendicular. I do wish the local council hadn't spoiled the scene with a bright blue sign informing the stupid that this is a war memorial. -- Colin (talk) 12:57, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
Comment - That view is nowhere near as interesting. I feel like some of you are getting lost in the details, but that's my point of view and obviously, to you and other opposers, details like the lack of absolute perpendicularity of the path are important. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:53, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination - There aren't going to suddenly be 8 supporting votes for this photo, so there's no point in dragging this process out. The combination of the backlighting and the lack of perfect regularity in the amount of path breaks too many FPC conventions, and then with objections to the appearance of the memorial itself added, this just deviates too much from FPC taste to have a chance, as it turns out. Thanks to all who voted or commented on this nomination. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:57, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
- Ikan I only referenced the other view wrt the light on the monument. Backlighting could work if the memorial had an interesting and identifiable silhouette shape. -- Colin (talk) 22:23, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

Comment The quality seems good to me, and I like the simplicity of the composition. The colours and the light are also very good. However I'm not sure of the need to feature both pictures - they are showing identical scenes, after all, and I don't think they're different enough both to become FPs. Given this, is it possible for me to vote to
Support the landscape picture and to
Oppose the portrait picture, for now at least? If consensus builds around the portrait picture I would be happy to switch those votes around to help the image pass - I prefer the landscape composition but there's not much in it. Cmao20 (talk) 00:43, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you for the comments @Ikan Kekek: , @Basile Morin: and @Cmao20: . I am trying to create set and this one is my first set of image in FPC. I am bit confused while creating this set although i did it.

Thanks again and please suggest me what is the best option you prefer. --Bijay chaurasia (talk) 08:33, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Bijay chaurasia, it seems you have misunderstood some of the process here. This is not a set as per the FPC guidline. A set is different aspects of a subject, like perhaps this tree at sunrise, at midday and at night, this is the same view but only in different formats. As "Alternatives" they don't work either. Nominating an FPC is also about selecting the very best photo as in one photo. Nominations are made with one photo, and if voters suggest changes to that photo, then an alternative is created. Very rarely the alternative is a totally different photo. So you need to withdraw this set nom, select the photo you think is the very best and nominate that one. If you need help choosing, you should ask at Commons:Photography critiques or by asking other users or friends. I look forward to seeing one of the photos here again. --Cart (talk) 09:34, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you @W.carter: for the suggestion. :) --Bijay chaurasia (talk) 11:06, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you for the comments @Ikan Kekek: , @Basile Morin: and @Cmao20: . I am trying to create set and this one is my first set of image in FPC. I am bit confused while creating this set although i did it. Actually I want to know that this set is valid or not if yes then i would love to nominate this as set if not then alternative is best option IMHO. Thanks again and please suggest me what is the best option you prefer. --Bijay chaurasia (talk) 08:33, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

- I can understand any decision. The top was a difficult decision too. For the whole top the image should be made with an aspect ratio of 1:2 or 1:3. IMO too much. --XRay talk 09:12, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Question Is this turned by 180°? I know this plant only with hanging flowers. --Berthold Werner (talk) 09:59, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, ceativity is good. But IMHO photographs in an encycolpedia should show flowers as they are in reallity. --Berthold Werner (talk) 11:58, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
- This is equvalent to having a flower cut and placed in a bouquet or flower arrangement where no flowers are in their natural alignment, but still good to photograph. And as stated so many, many times before: Commons is not just to service Wikipedia with photos, but for all wiki-projects as well as other projects, present and future. All good photos are welcome. (FP general rules section 7: 7.Remember, the goal of the Wikimedia Commons project is to provide a central repository for free images to be used by all Wikimedia projects, including possible future projects. This is not simply a repository for Wikipedia images, so images should not be judged here on their suitability for that project.) There are presently 12 other wiki-projects and this would make a wonderful cover for a Wikibook. --Cart (talk) 12:30, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

- Each to their own, I guess. It doesn’t bother me personally. Of course it’d be easy to clone it away, but I don’t really see why we should change reality like that (plus I wouldn’t really want to change Diliff’s picture unless I were correcting an obvious problem or technical error). I nominated this one not because I felt it was perfect in every way but because it’s a high-resolution and pin-sharp picture of a very interesting church under nice light. But of course you are entitled to disagree, and I am grateful for your review anyway. Cmao20 (talk) 19:35, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination Thanks @G Furtado: for pointing out a stitching error on the tower (see notes on image page). My fault for not examining the picture closely enough before nominating. I have spotted a few more stitching errors, caused by misalignment of the same frame. I will try to correct these myself (which is of course challenging without the original image files), and I still believe the corrected image would be FP material, but for now let's withdraw this one. Thanks to all who voted. Cmao20 (talk) 19:53, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

- Category: Commons:Featured pictures/Places/Interiors/Religious buildings
Info Two images of the nave of Hereford Cathedral, from opposite ends of the nave. Originally a Norman church, the cathedral has been heavily restored, not least after the collapse of the west tower in 1786; much of the original Norman architecture remains, however. The images are already featured on the English Wikipedia. I felt a set nomination was appropriate here, following the precedent of the York Minster nomination.

Support. The usual high standard others try to meet. Though I think File:Hereford Cathedral Choir, Herefordshire, UK - Diliff.jpg is the best of the photos, which is presumably why Diliff nominated that one earlier. -- Colin (talk) 13:33, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, I guess the architecture of the choir is a little more distinctive. Worth noting that Diliff did nominate both of these at English Wikipedia FPC though, I'm surprised he never got round to them here. Cmao20 (talk) 20:48, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose I think only one would have been "featurable". To nominate two is problematic: nobody noticed the differences of colors of the ground/pavement ? One of the two is wrong.--Jebulon (talk) 16:48, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
- @Jebulon: I see what you mean, but I don't think it necessarily means one of the two is 'wrong'. Look at the EXIF data - the first image was taken at 3:43pm, the second at 4:05pm. Most probably the lighting conditions within the church had changed slightly between the two pictures - but I don't think that's an avoidable problem given the amount of time it takes to produce these pictures. Both images are still faithful depictions of the church as it was on that day - just at slightly different times. Cmao20 (talk) 16:08, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
- Light will also alter colors depending on camera angle to it. These two photos are taken in different directions = different light = different colors. --Cart (talk) 07:41, 27 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose - The long, curving bunch of lampposts is a nice element, but to me, it's not enough to make the photo a great composition, overall. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:40, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose per others – Lucas 20:30, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose No wow factor. --BoothSift 23:08, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
Weak oppose Unfortunately I generally agree with the above. The composition is good though, I think it's the light conditions that were a bit lacking - under a nice blue sky, or a stormy sky, I'd have supported. The other thing that bothers me a little is the unsharpness of the nearest lamp-post. Cmao20 (talk) 00:39, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose It's a nice photo, but the iPhone does not show enough details. Areas of similar colors (grass e.g.) are blurry, there seems to be some color noise in the buildings' details and for a panoramic overview it is too small in pixel count. --Granada (talk) 10:01, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Question why was the original daguerrotype de-saturated to colorless grayscale? I'm certainly not an ecpert on this, but it looks to me like a gilded daguerrotype. In that case, the warm golden look is the intentional result of the default process in use at that time (kind of like a late 1800s Instagram filter), not a defect that should be "fixed". --El Grafo (talk) 14:30, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hi, I don't think we can reliably ascertain the original colors, as all old images become faded and yellowish over time. Moreover, this is to show Henry David Thoreau, not the daguerrotype process, and this is the best portrait we have of him. Regards, Yann (talk) 14:39, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose I don't like such radical "freshening up" of an old image. True, we can't know what color it was when it was brand new, but I think it should be preserved in the colors it has aged to. Museum people refers to this as keeping the patina. Making a totally B&W image might in some cases be ok for a photo on paper made from a negative where the paper has turned yellow, but this is a daguerreotype and as such it is the only copy. IMO it should be treated the same way as any other work of art, such as a painting. --Cart (talk) 16:30, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- @El Grafo and W.carter: Would you support the original? Regards, Yann (talk) 16:41, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- I don't think so. I don't find the photo that remarcable. --Cart (talk) 17:06, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- @W.carter: This is a very famous personality, and there are only 2 known portraits of him. Also the resolution is high, and the quality is largely more than average for that time. Regards, Yann (talk) 17:13, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- I know, and those things would make up 2/3 of why a photo should be featured. The last third, wow-factor/artistry/something-that-makes-me-want-to-look-at-this-image is missing for me. Sorry, --Cart (talk) 17:20, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
- I could see myself potentially supporting the original at VI. Otherwise I agree with everything W.carter wrote above. --El Grafo (talk) 09:25, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
Comment This is a retouched of a retouched of a retouched version. Now compared to the original, it has significantly more noise -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:48, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Support As for a photograph of 1856 (!) this looks like a perfect conservation status to me.--Der Angemeldete (talk) 12:35, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose Historical photographs and daguerreotypes may fade or change tone but what we can be sure of is they were not printed on a black and white laser printer on Xerox copy paper, which is what this looks like. As El Grafo notes, the standard daguerreotype process produced warm tone, not a steel grey. And per Basile, this is much more noisy than the Google Art Project version. Let's appreciate aged photographs and historical photographic technology in the colours and tone it has. Restoring the GAP photo would be more interesting, and a real challenge for someone to preserve the texture of the daguerreotype grain, and avoid either softening to a blur or introducing digital noise like the nomination has. -- Colin (talk) 12:49, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
Oppose per Colin and Cart (though if this were originally in these tones, I'd say it's a pretty remarkable job). Daniel Case (talk) 17:28, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
