See also COM:I: "Featured pictures candidates should meet all the following requirements, must have a "wow factor" and may or may not have been created by a Commons user.

- Thank you for your review. I guess you are talking of one of the two trees? They are the reason the chamois were there: close to them the snow is less deep and they can dig the snow with their hooves to eat the grass. The trees are thus part of the habitats of these chamois, which is one of the reasons why the gallery Animals in their habitat was chosen for this picture. Also, I actually personally think that they give a nice touch to the image with their soft colors illuminated by the sunset. Also both trees point to the subject and the chamois clearly stands out with its dark color in this snowy background with soft sunset illuminated colors. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 17:38, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- Support From the point of view of the chosen gallery, I think the composition is appropriate. In my opinion, the blurred elements in the foreground and background can be considered a compositional style. -- Radomianin (talk) 19:51, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

- Thank you for your review. I still personally think that the background tree is a nice echo of the foreground tree, giving the viewer a sense of what the foreground tree actually looks like while also beeing relevant to the chamois' environment. Giles Laurent (talk) 13:08, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- It's a fair point, but the tree takes the salience. SHB2000 (talk) 22:09, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- I still think that the chamois stands out way more than the background tree for multiple reasons : 1) the chamois is the clear subject in the middle of the frame ; 2) the chamois is wearing it's black winter coat which makes it stand out compared to the light-colored snow ; 3) the bokeh is cleary separating the subject from the background ; 4) the foreground tree creates perfect leading lines that point directly at the center of the frame where the subject is placed ; 5) the snow horizon on the background on the left side creates another leading line to the center of the frame where the subject is placed ; 6) the snow on the middleground of the image that goes from the bottom right of the picture to the center also creates another leading line pointing to the subject ; 7) finally, even the background tree is pointing right at the subject. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 22:47, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

- Thanks for the constructive review, Красный. I agree that without the small plant, it would be a classical composition with conformity. Keeping it as an intrusive object was intentional because it matches the green paint residue from the previous coat as well as the other tiny plants on the left. It is cropped because the wall actually ends at the right edge of the image. Also, because of the plant, the asphalted section fits as a contrast. But you can find an edited version without the plant for comparison under the SwissTransfer link. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 17:55, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

- Comment The new image is not much improvement, it has blurs where the previous was sharp. Eg the top edges of the petals. The focus stacking needs rework. The tool I use, Zerene Stacker, allows one to copy a part of a specific image into the output. I find this useful for sharpening blurry areas that the automatic stacking cannot fix. --Tagooty (talk) 03:24, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

- Info It's probably (once again) a somewhat daring nomination, but I really like the picture. That was ultimately the deciding factor for the nomination. The motif is a simple gate in the Duisburg-Nord Landscape Park. The basis for this photo was taken using the ICM technique. This photo was enhanced in color and an additional layer was added with the mirrored photo. The two resulting layers were blended together. I lack the courage to nominate an even more intense version. ;-) --XRay 💬 07:15, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose If it was an original photograph, it would have been interesting, but it seems to be 100% symmetrical at a pixel level through the vertical axis, which means it is more digitally composed (like two parts copy-pasted on a software) than natural. Something abstract, but too far from a real photograph or a real subject. Moreover, the appearance looks weird around the yellow lines, there are kind of artifacts, and this rupture is very visible, as if there were different layers. Overall the result is not very aesthetic, in my opinion. Sorry -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:09, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Note: I tried something with the sky that I haven't attempted before, pulling a cloud from another shot taken at the same place at the same time from roughly the same direction. I don't know if that's too much retouching for FPC, but erring on the side of disclosure (it didn't affect the bird itself -- just improved the background a little). all by — Rhododendrites talk | 23:36, 18 May 2024 (UTC) - Support — Rhododendrites talk | 23:36, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

- You have never manipulated a background (or a foreground)? All of the out-of-focus twigs, distracting leaves, bird/bug-specks in the background, etc. that you've photographed -- you've never removed them? Pay no mind to extraordinary feats of AI-enabled sharpening, AI-based denoising, selective tone adjustments, and all other manner of post-processing, but add a cloud (a cloud in the sky at that place and at that time, even) and all of a sudden I've crossed a bright line? I'm not saying it shouldn't matter -- I know it'll go against some people's sensibilities, which is why I highlighted it in the nomination statement, and anyone is free to oppose if they wish -- but this Arbiter of What's Acceptable stuff is too much. — Rhododendrites talk | 21:51, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- Technically, any panorama which includes sky and clouds will have several spots in the sky where parts are from other neighboring photos, so in fact replaced and often tweaked/reshaped by the processing program to look nice. I can guarantee that the sky never looked exactly like in this image, because it is a product of the program that stitched the panorama. We accept that without question because they are declared as panoramas and we know they are "manipulated". As long as the alteration is openly declared in a very clear manner (which has been made here), I see no problem with entering such photos here at FPC. It's just a matter of classification, and in each case votes can decide how much they are willing to tolerate in an FPC. Ideally it would be great if the original was found in the file's upload history so that we can see each step, I think that would help people decide how they are going to vote. In this case, I suspect there is no great difference. --Cart (talk) 22:17, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- For good measure, I've uploaded the version before the sky adjustment and reverted. Note that the uploaded file is also before another pass at tone adjustments/white balancing so it looks slightly different in other [more mundane] ways. — Rhododendrites talk | 22:40, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- It is indeed a small but surprisingly effective change! A small nitpick: those beautiful steel blue feathers above the eyes got quite a bit duller after the tonal adjustments. Julesvernex2 (talk) 12:18, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose I agree with Charles that heavy-handed manipulations (like sky replacements) applied to images which will be used in a context where the audience can expect a realistic depiction of the subject shouldn't be featured here. As image manipulations seem to come up more often these days, there might be a need for a more in-depth discussion about what's ok and what's not. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

- The "heavy-handed manipulation" didn't change the subject at all, so if the point is to ensure a photo of a martin looks like a martin that's irrelevant here. If it's to ensure a martin could be seen in front of a realistic background, the fact that it's the same sky from the same place/time would seem pretty realistic. So what's left is an arbitrary line whereby using AI to manipulate an image's noise/sharpness, stitching images, using content-aware fill, outright removing pieces like disturbing plants and smears, etc. is acceptable and this is not. I would feel less strongly about this if people just said "it offends my photographer's sensibilities in ways that a wide range of other manipulations and 'unrealities' do not" rather than act as though this is unrealistic but the rest of what we see at FPC is completely realistic. — Rhododendrites talk | 13:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Support I'm fairly new to this but I think the concerns about the background are overblown. It's a great photo and probably took a lot of patience and effort to make. Toadspike (talk) 16:32, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment I have no particular objection to the addition of the cloud in the background, so long as the effect is realistic and the modification is clearly stated. @Rhododendrites: Anyhow, what was your aim? What effect were you looking for? From an estetic point of view, both pictures are valuable, but, according to me, the original one is sharper and has better colors. --Harlock81 (talk) 17:11, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

- Info White ibis. For some reason, a flock of white ibis has started nesting in this weird spot in New Jersey, hundreds of miles north of their usual range. I took many photos, but like this one for the way the sunlit leaves kind of vignette the bird -- kind of like a zoo shot (but it's wild). all by — Rhododendrites talk | 23:04, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

- Hmm. No action on this yet. I'm a little surprised because I'm quite happy with the natural "vignetting". It looks perhaps a little busy as a thumbnail -- would recommend viewing at full size. We'll see. :) — Rhododendrites talk | 22:01, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: I think a portrait crop would work better. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 00:08, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks. I played with crops a bit -- perhaps a square crop, even -- but with a portrait you lose the "vignetting" that I like so much. It's possible it's just me that likes that, though. :) Would be curious to hear additional opinions before offering an alternative. — Rhododendrites talk | 17:30, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
