[edit]

  • Nomination Our Lady of Sorrows, woodcarved polychromed statue in parish church of Urtijëi. Sculptor Josef Moroder-Lusenberg --Moroder 11:15, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Support Good quality -- Spurzem 13:34, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Sorry, not sharp (motion blur due to low shutter speed), noisy. --Mandula 17:02, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Comment The camera has a electronic stabilizer --Moroder 17:41, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose The "electronic stabilizer" might not be enough for 1/4 second exposure time. But IMO the issue with this picture is not motion blur but rather lack of DOF. In any case, at full resolution it's noisy, but even at lower resolution only the face is sharp while other parts are blurry. --Plozessor 05:39, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
    • The concept of this series of photos was to focus on the face of the statues since there are already good pictures of the whole statue.--Moroder 10:17, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
      • But the face is making up a too small portion of the image for that case, and when zoomed in, quality is no good (noisy and blurry). --Plozessor 06:19, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Neutral I don't understand why you so often waste the possibilities offered by your camera by using very high ISO settings instead of using a tripod for such and similar motifs. This applies to the entire series of images presented. Of course, the very high image resolution still allows the photos to be used by shrinking them down to six or eight Mpixels. However, this cannot compensate for the loss of possible contrast range. --Smial 09:01, 23 May 2024 (UTC) Ps: Lighting and composition are all nice. A pity.
  • A tripod is not permitted in most churches and museums. That’s the reason why I moved from the X1C to the X2C 100C --Moroder 10:13, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
That is of course a problem, yes. But then you can't do QI in such places that could really be considered exemplary. I'm always willing to accept compromises when it comes to noise in sports photos, where you might like to use 1/4000 of a second, or moving subjects in dark surroundings (theaters, concerts). --Smial 17:11, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Why a compromise for sport and not for artwork that you can reveal to people. Btw I don’t think that my photos are that bad :-( --Moroder 22:41, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Because a Madonna statue like that doesn't wriggle around or run away when you take a photo of it. I didn't describe your photo as "bad" and, as you may have noticed, I didn't reject it either. But if you're no longer allowed to mention avoidable flaws here, then I'm probably in the wrong place. --Smial 12:40, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
@Smial: Please don't take me wrong. I really like your comments, but I might not always agree, which help for a good discussion. That's one of the main reasons I like QIC --Moroder 16:45, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
What strikes me is the different scale used to judge things. Almost regularly, absolutely weak images are highly praised and it is by no means rare that good or even very good images are downgraded. For some time now, this has been the reason for me not to actively participate in QIC with photos any longer and to only cast my vote sometimes. Best regards -- Spurzem 21:36, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
@Spurzem: As indicated by @Smial: , sometimes I'm opposing pictures with avoidable flaws. In a sense, when it would have been easy to take a better picture. Even if the result isn't too bad overall. QI is (at least partly) about avoiding photographic defects - and a 40 MP picture with incorrect focus is "defect" while a 10 MP picture with correct focus is not, even if the 40 MP picture might look sharp when downscaled to 10 MP. --Plozessor 06:19, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
@Plozessor: As you said before this picture is not out of focus but it lacks of DOF. There are two reasons: the light is very low in that church but the purpose of the foto was to focus on the face of the Madonna as in a portrait --Moroder 16:55, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

[edit]

  • Nomination The Gulf of Naples on the Great Chebachy Lake, view from one of the rocks on the shore. Burabay national park. Burabay district Akmola region, Kazakhstan. By User:Евгений Емельянов --Красный 03:03, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Support Good quality. --Plozessor 04:25, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Too much noise and not enough sharp for a QI. --Remontees 17:14, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support Just over 6 MPixels is a bit low for a landscape shot of this type these days, I find little remnants of CA and the sharpness could be a bit better. But it's enough for a decent A4-size print, and I really have nothing to complain about in terms of colour, lighting and composition. --Smial 20:07, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Overprocessed IMO - halo effect around the farthest mountain. Seems like a mask was added with negative dehaze or similar to give the impression of distance. BigDom 09:29, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Weak support Per Smial --GoldenArtists (talk) 13:39, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
Total: 3 support (excluding the nominator), 2 oppose → Promoted   --BigDom 14:53, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

[edit]

  • Nomination Medium egret (Ardea intermedia) in flight over Harangi Reservoir early morning, Suntikoppa, Coorg --Tagooty 00:34, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Oppose Amazing composition, but I'm afraid, the main subject doesn't show enough detail --MB-one 11:25, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Given the dawn lighting and motion, let's hear other opinions. --Tagooty 03:17, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Unfortunately I have to agree with MB-one. The bird has very little detail and isn't really sharp. --Plozessor 13:27, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Weak  Support. The very special lighting makes the photo appear blurrier than it is. Yes, you can definitely see weaknesses, especially on the bird's head. Overall, however, I think it's enough for a usable A4-size printout. --Smial 20:19, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Weak  Support Per Smial --GoldenArtists (talk) 15:53, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support Per Smial --Moroder 17:22, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support Per Smial - give photographic creativity the benefit of any doubt! --Scotch Mist 11:06, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

[edit]

  • Nomination Top down view of the church of Eisodia Theotokou in Thiti, Attica. --C messier 19:24, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Oppose Not an acceptable composition for a QI. --Remontees 22:05, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support Good quality. --MB-one 22:35, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support The shadows are a little dark, but the quality is good and top down views are useful. -- Екатерина Борисова 14:53, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose. Unfortunate lighting and too dark shadows. Thats no QI for me. -- Spurzem 20:05, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support Good enough for me --Moroder 09:48, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support Acceptable for QI --Milseburg 14:55, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
  •  Weak oppose The questionable composition and level of shadow leave me struggling to support the image, as is, for QI --Scotch Mist 11:12, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
