Pictogram-voting question.svg Question - are the nomination guidelines available in Arabic? I guess that Ghabara may not have understood them fully - MPF (talk) 15:28, 26 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No, there isn't an Arabic version of this FPC's rules yet (apparently the Arabic FPC is pretty different), but Ghabara can communicate in English. We just have a case n00b-itis here. --IdLoveOne (talk) 22:06, 26 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose Due to the composition: it appears cluttered, with no focal point, no breathing space for anything. The only leading compositional element is the backlit translucent glass enclosure at the bottom, but we lose it halfway in, since the overpass cuts the picture exactly in half. The trusses and structural elements of the ceiling are stacked together and thus not really legible, part of a mechanical stair protrude in the lower left corner... --MAURILBERT (discuter) 17:10, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Noted: a ladder for another meter or so of height would have helped push the bridge down in the image and focus better on the vanishing point, but security doesn't look favorably on ladders at the checkpoints. Acroterion (talk) 17:57, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yes, I was, but it was really hard for me to look at that poor bear (I saw dozens of them in a wild), at his yellow fur, and a sick look. Polar bears are beautiful animals, and this one... it looks like he is in pain. Anyway you are right. I let my personal feelings about this poor caged bear to prevail.

Nothing to be sorry about! I agree that ethics is a factor to [polar!] bear in mind when considering FPC - MPF (talk) 09:49, 24 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yeah, nothing wrong with having ethics, and it could be argued anyway that if someone was going to take a zoo photo it could show the animal more interesting than just sitting there.

  • Symbol neutral vote.svg Neutral -- Caro Luis, há duas coisa de que eu não gosto nesta imagem: a luz, que é muito agressiva (demasiado contraste) e o enquadramento, que é muito cerrado em torno do busto. For the rest of us, sorry for writing in Portuguese (which is almost identical to Galician).

There is no article in the french WP about the "commission of the status of the Sixteen", so, after reading galego article (latin brotherhood helps a lot for this !!), I tried a very short explanation, with a link to the french WP article to Galiza, not so bad, but without any information about the galician post-franquist period history...Nevertheless, I hope my little work will help french native speakers !

    • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment As it is the forefoot (the hand) which is depicted, I chose "finger" (but everyone can change it, if he wants to). The boxes are arranged horizontally (with explanation) and vertically (with other explanations). If you go to the overlaying parts, you can see the comments for the horizontal and the vertical boxes respectively. That's the reason for this arrangement. --Llez (talk) 18:49, 29 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment "Finger" is normally only used for arms, not for forelegs, in English. But I'll wait to see what others think. What I meant with the boxes, was that they were not fully aligned (e.g. column 1 started 343 px from the top and was 7620 px high, column 2 started 329 px from the top and was 7634 px high), I have aligned them all now. - MPF (talk) 19:30, 29 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
        • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment Thanks for aligning. Finger /toes: I'm not so familiar with English to know this difference. I accept your argument, I change to "toes". --Llez (talk) 20:41, 29 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    • Pictogram voting info.svg Info You can choose any modern Equus as example. But the reason is simple: At the Museum (SMNK, see above) these four skeletons are mounted to demonstrate horse-evolution. No other modern Equus-species is shown as skeleton. To photograph other species, you must have skeletons arranged in the same way. But I hadn't. In addition, I dont think that the skeletons would show serious differences. --Llez (talk) 17:41, 5 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    • That sounds like a discrepancy to me: If I'd had made it wider you would see even more sky and on the ground projection distortions would become obvious. Please consider the image resolution of 56 Megapixel when judging image quality. I have a 2m wide printout at home which looks absolutely perfect. If you can't read the labels you can scale the graphic-that's the advantage of a vector format. --Ikiwaner (talk) 17:42, 29 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      • Yes, I understand the difficulties, which may not have an adequate solution. I'm also aware of the lighting problems with this kind of image. Maybe this was not the best spot to take the 360º panorama; a higher place would have been much better, of course but is there such place? The truth is I don't sympatize with 360º panoramas, not only due to the technical problems involved but also because they don't offer a realistic view of the subject. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:04, 29 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Surely one of the characteristics of an image that is among "the finest on Commons" must be that it is not capable of being significantly improved upon. I don't think that's the case with this photo: there are reflections from the glass case in the lower neck area and ugly blown highlights on the shoulder, nose and forehead. In addition it's noisy in the shadows, and the colour balance is way off. I've uploaded a cleaned up version (aside), but since this is an easily rephotographable object I'd really prefer to see a better quality, higher resolution photo featured.

The most important thing, the subject of the image is a whale, or rather the mark of the bites of great white sharks. The whale was not retouched. The ocean was. There were a big waves that day, and it is all, but impossible to stitch the waves automatically.

  • Symbol support vote.svg Support Looks good to me. I think its a great subject, and a very valuable and unique picture, too. Who cares if it isn't a butterfly on a flower? I'd honestly rather see a decaying whale, which is a very interesting subject matter that isn't something you see everyday (a big factor, I would think, in whether or not something is worth featuring). As for the stitching, I understand why manipulations on the ocean had to be done, and I fail to see why that's a deterrent; the subject in intact and looks good (not that type of good...), while the ocean is an ocean, and isn't a big factor in the image. ~Kevin Payravi (Talk) 03:05, 30 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • I'll note the imperfect source for the id, quoting a marine biologist, says Sei (B. borealis) or Bryde's (B. brydei) [doh! Fin (B. physalus)] or Blue hybrid. I imagine the boffin blathering on about uncertain taxonomy of the genus, and the reporter seizing on rare and hybrid to fill the column, but noting it as a species of w:Balaenoptera is probably reasonable. Beached whales are not rare, neither is being chewed round the edges before they land. Questions: This was taken with the same camera that produced the image at the Great White article? Is it possible to see the source without retouching? Where is the citation that states it was that shark species, or is that assumed? cygnis insignis 18:11, 30 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Well, beached whales are more or less rare, and appear only in some regions, even at ocean shores. I live 10 minutes walk from the ocean. I see a beach wale about 1 time in 2-3 years in 40 miles radius from my home. It was only second time I saw a whale with the bites by a great white shark, or any shark for that matter at all. I saw elephant seals with the bites of sharks. All the images were taken with the same camera. Also amazing were the huge bites taken out of the whale that experts said were from great white sharks. I am not sure why do you need to see the source files.--Mbz1 (talk) 18:26, 30 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I wouldn't cite that source, good copy is the priority. I can't cite you until you are published and reviewed, but dead and dying whales turn up on beaches more often than other regions, if not always. I see and hear of them in my immediate vicinity many times a year, I've never thought to photograph them, is there an audience for deserted and dying humpback calves. This used to drive the locals nuts, keeping them awake all night with their wailing until somebody went out and shot it. Stinking up our favourite beach isn't much fun either. I had the idea that making the original data available was sop, at least for restoration, and I fancied having a look after I zoomed up on the retouched file. Is it impolite to ask, ignore me if it is. cygnis insignis 19:49, 30 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I count four in the last three months, on beaches I can see from my window. One was 'resting' in the harbour for a fortnight, then was blown up; again, I didn't think to get a snap of that.

      • Oh, the smoke, now I understand. Honestly, no, they are not renowned for the colour of the smoke. They're simply not. You could say that Patrulla Águila is, in a sense, because they're the only team to use yellow smoke. And mind you, this is not Wikipedia the Commons FPs do not need to be educational in the strict sense. And there is never an indication of what a particular image is supposed to illustrate. The argument would, however, be perfectly valid for valued images, that is where we pay attention to how the image illustrates a given topic. There due to the reasons you mentioned, I'd oppose the picture myself. Wolf (talk) 08:12, 30 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      • i think there is always an indication of what a particular image is supposed to illustrate. it first of all is image itself: the level of detail you can perceive, the movement within the image, the way the image was shot concerning technical aspects. the question one needs to ask oneself is: what does this picture tell me? does it tell about the aircraft type? not really, shape is visible, but technical details are not. does it tell about the formation they fly? yes it does - to a certain degree, film could do better to give a illustration of what they are able of. speaking of the connection of colour and Frecce Tricolori - i think it is the same with Patrulla Águila. they do formations including their national colours as well. that was my point. after having seen several picture of the Frecce Tricolori, visiting their website and browsing through the article i got the impression that this what they are renowned for. but alright, you are the guy who's into aviation. i would be very glad if you could get me the part of the guideline where it says, the Commons FPs do not need to be educational in the strict sense, i did not find it so far.--Peter Weis (talk) 14:17, 30 September 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
        • And where does it say that an image has to be educational? That's exactly the point that EV is absent from the guidelines altogether. Commons FP (as opposed to Wikipedia FP) deals with the image itself, not the image in the context of a particular article. And as for colours, the truth is that most stunts are done with white smoke, the colours are mostly reserved for fly-bys and some formation manoeuvres.

          • I like the diagonal composition and - as mentioned below - the idea of the planes popping out from behind the cover as if in a low level air raid. By the way, I've just nominated a picture with high (I think) educational value. You can consider it to have a dedication just for you Face-smile.svg Really, no hard feelings.

  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment I'm sorry, I think such a tilt is not that "obvious". I see other little issues, as always when I watch very carefully my pictures (I'm never fully happy with them), but I really don't find any tilt.--Jebulon (talk) 16:43, 2 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • Pictogram voting info.svg Info -- Please bring the picture to full size and align the left and the right walls of the castle with the right margin. You'll see the tilt. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 18:05, 2 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • I saw that previously. It seems more to be a perspective distortion IMO, because there is no other way where a tilt could be possible (and the right wall of the castle is not straight in real). Not sure it needs to be corrected. Thoughts about ?--Jebulon (talk) 20:28, 2 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      • I agree, it could be the effect of barrel distortion since a small focal distance was used -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:18, 2 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment I reckon it's a fine photo, composition-wise. Sticking a grey point on the shadow of the foreground sail shows that there's a slight magenta tinge, there's also a touch of colour noise in the shadows, and it could be a little brighter and more saturated to emphasise the strength of the Spanish sun. I've uploaded a version incorporating these changes (aside): I'd be interested to hear what people think. Smalljim (talk) 22:46, 2 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment but looks like a waste of resources to re-upload the image, just because somebody want to nominate it as a feature picture. The rule doesn't prevent re-nomination.. I believe that you are right.. But has this been discussed before? Before most of us believe that something is nominated once. And if re-nomination is allowed.. should be clearly mentioned in the rules.. and this should not be done by re-uploading the image with different name (waste of resources to have duplicate identical images). Ggia (talk) 18:17, 5 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • But the image was not uploaded as a new version... It is the same image! As for re-nominating a picture, the practise was not rare in the past 2 or 3 years.

Do you realize how these little critters are so different from us? It's not by chance that the alliens appearing in the low-budget movies are inspired by them. Look at eyes. Not only the composite ones (which are banded) but also the three ocelli: two above the antennae and one below. Nobody knows how they work and what kind of vision these animals have.

The background looks somehow photographed somewhere else and then copied in it (I think because of the flash). The foliage at the bottom left should be also removed before taking an image. It can't be a big problem to take a photo of the the mushroom with a tripod without falsh light. Quality is okay, but I think it could be better too.

What to you mean by "blown highlights"? And what could be done to improve the picture?--McIntosh Natura (talk) 17:45, 12 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Das bedeutet, dass die hellen Stellen im Bild überbelichtet sind. Schau dir den hintersten Berg an; dessen Schneefelder sind so hell, dass sie im Bild komplett weiss sind - sprich, Helligkeitsunterschiede im Schnee sieht man nicht mehr. Der Kern des Problems ist, dass heutige Dateiformate und Bildschirme Helligkeitsunterschiede nur in einem bestimmten Bereich darstellen können, und wenn ein Bereich heller ist, kommt einfach alles als weiss raus. Du könntest nun das Bild nachträglich abdunkeln, aber das nützt nichts, da sämtliche Details in diesem Bereich bereits endgültig verloren sind. Es sei denn, du hättest noch eine dünklere Version dieses Bildes oder ein RAW-File, das idr. einen grösseren Kontrastumfang als das JPEG aufweist; dort sind die Details in diesem Bereich vielleicht noch vorhanden - Dann müsstest du aus dem RAW ein neues JPEG machen, dass dünkler ist (bzw. einen "zusammengestauchten" Kontrastumfang hat, der ins JPEG-Format rein passt). --Kabelleger (talk) 18:06, 12 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Vielen Dank für die ausführliche Antwort, Kabelleger! Leider sind die Helligkeitsverhältnisse auch beim Originalbild nicht besser... Okay, THFSW, now I know what you mean by "blown highlights."

  • You still have to watch out : If the work was made, say in 1865, and that the author died in 1920, then it's copyright reserved until 2020 (100 years after the artist's death in France, I believe).

  • Pictogram voting info.svg Info c/u/n by Muhammad Mahdi Karim -- Muhammad (talk) 06:54, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support -- Muhammad (talk) 06:54, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose Ragged wing edges, stingy license, ?downsampled. --99of9 (talk) 10:01, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • Sorry but my picture, my license. And there are over 45 pictures from me with the same license, in fact an image with the exact same license was just promoted today. --Muhammad (talk) 13:43, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      • Of course it is your choice of license, just as it is my choice of vote. I simply feel that stingy licences are a negative for reusers, and thus weigh against my desire to promote the image to reusers in featured galleries. Yes, there are plenty that have been passed with this license, even some I support, but the image has to be just that much better to outweigh this. I will try to be more consistent in noting it in future. --99of9 (talk) 21:32, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
        • Ah, but that's where you're wrong. I can use any license that meets the requirements (and the current one does). And you, cannot oppose if the license meets the criteria. --Muhammad (talk) 00:24, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
          • To me, part of "most valuable" is its useability, and value is the primary criteria I'm meant to be assessing for. I admit that there is no other discussion of licensing in the FP criteria beyond commons requirements. But if you're going to bring up the letter of the law, perhaps some of those 45 need to be reviewed from the perspective of the very clear rule Images should not be downsampled. 99of9 (talk) 00:36, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg OpposeSame as 99of9. The license is indeed a little stingy. Nicolas M. Perrault (talk) 12:04, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg OpposePer 99of9. The message of the picture should be the beauty of the butterfly and not its age or weakness. So certainly no FP with these ragged wings! --McIntosh Natura (talk) 14:06, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support I see nothing wrong with the license, as for the ragged edges, what would you like the author to do, glue it back together? --The High Fin Sperm Whale 17:29, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment Ragged wings -> Find a nicer subject to take a featured photo of. Not all subjects are featurable. 99of9 (talk) 21:36, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      • Ragged wings are a reality. If we had only pretty pics, how would we illustrate aging? --Muhammad (talk) 00:24, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose - the bug bar is very high. Jonathunder (talk) 19:55, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • And how does this image not meet the bar? --Muhammad (talk) 00:17, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      • I agree. That's like opposing every image on FPC because "the FPC bar is very high". Comments like this are not helpful. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 01:05, 16 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support While I see the point made by 99of9, I myself am not going to oppose an image when it's fine of Muhammad to license as he wishes (within acceptable licenses, of course). On another note, the raggedy wings and age are fine by me - I feel that the aspect of realism is certainly a good one. Just because it's a butterfly doesn't mean that it has to be portrayed as a young, healthy, specimen; nature is nature, and if a picture conveys it in good quality, then more power to it. No need for a bloated fantasy - let's bring some of the grim of the world into here, even if its just a butterfly. In a way, that's an art in itself ~Kevin Payravi (Talk) 02:49, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support If only to balance the opposition due to the licensing. Is the image free enough to be on Commons? Yes. Then it is featurable. End of discussion. J Milburn (talk) 00:27, 15 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose The subject is fine, the license is fine, however, the overall image quality is not fine. For being just over 2MP it should be very sharp, however several wing edges are not. Also, a geotag would be nice. --Relic38 (talk) 03:43, 16 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support Maybe the bug is old, sick or got in a fight with a bird, in that case it's understandable to feel sorry for it. Otherwise, the photo is good. --IdLoveOne (talk) 17:37, 16 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    • Pictogram voting info.svg Info The original work used to be a handscroll (emakimono) which included all the parts shown in Category:Extermination of Evil. It was later cut into parts and each part was mounted on a hanging scroll (kakemono). So what you see in this image is one of these parts as it exists today. Most of the image is occupied by the (cut) paper scroll (which is the national treasure). The border (with flower pattern) is part of the kakemono. It is likely some kind of silk fabric. I chose not to crop it out in order to show that this paper segment is mounted on a hanging scroll. bamse (talk) 10:37, 22 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

bamse and Bugallo: I think that's just the reflection of the sun in the gold structure which gives it a special glare; I don't think that's tilted or blurry, it's just matt paint. --McIntosh Natura (talk) 21:39, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Maybe it should be photographed on a not-sunny day in this case!? To me it appears as if focus is not on the main subject but on the small head at Maria's feet. bamse (talk) 00:25, 15 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Well, it is not a problem to clone out the graffiti, but then the image would get opposed for "improper digital manipulation".

    • The guidelines state:
      • Digital manipulations must not deceive the viewer. Digital manipulation for the purpose of correcting flaws in an image is generally acceptable provide it is limited, well-done, and not intended to deceive.
        • For photographs, typical acceptable manipulations include cropping, perspective correction, sharpening/blurring, and colour/exposure correction. More extensive manipulations, such as removal of distracting background elements, should be clearly described in the image text, by means of the {{Retouched picture}} template. Undescribed or mis-described manipulations which cause the main subject to be misrepresented are never acceptable.

It is meant to fix a blown-out sky.

Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment There are quite a number of dust spots in the sky, on both sides. --Cayambe (talk) 05:45, 19 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment Fixed. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 14:51, 19 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Pictogram-voting question.svg Question Lycaon, would you be kind enough as to give us a dissertation as to what constitutes "unfortunate lighting conditions?." I chose that particular angle just because of the lighting conditions. You see, a fully lit subject generally is flat, which would have been the case had I taken the picture from the other side, so from this perspective, the lighting creates what in photography is called "volume", thus creating the visual illusion of 3d.--Tomascastelazo (talk) 13:45, 20 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Sorry, maybe you can try again. It is a stationary object isn't it? Lycaon (talk) 14:26, 20 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • That´s no explanation as to what constitutes "unfortunate lighting conditions." That statement si so vague... Please enlighten us. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 16:05, 20 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • I think his problem is that the front of the building is entirely in shadow. --IdLoveOne (talk) 21:25, 21 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose Nice picture with a great encyclopedic value. I agree with you about the flatness of fully lit subjects. But when the major part (including the whole front!) of the subject remains in a rather dark shadow, that's far too much: on that point Lycaon is right when he is talking about "unfortunate lighting conditions". -- MJJR (talk) 15:49, 20 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Two issues here: 1) The object itself. An interesting smelter built by the Jesuits 400 years ago in a rich mining area in the state of Guanajuato, source of huge amounts of gold and silver during the colony. 2) Photographic technique. a) Exposure renders all areas in acceptable dynamic and texture ranges. b) DoF enough to give acceptable focus across the frame. c) Composition. I framed it tightly in order to depict just the subject matter. Here people are free to like it or not. d) Point of view. I chose this point of view deliveratley in order to have a diagonal perspective, and take advantage of graphic elements of photography such as countour, perspective, volume and texture. Interesting subject? For some, yes. Pretty subject? If you are a mining or structural engineer, historian, or academic, perhaps. If you are into video games, perhaps not. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 16:55, 20 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment "Typical" in the image description is really puzzling, and might need to be corrected, nevertheless the image is IMO in scope as it demonstrates the range of positions this bird can take.

  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment -- It is irrelevant whether this extraordinary behaviour is typical of the species or not, it is amazing anyway (and probably rare to capture)!

  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment Napoleon once said "From the sublime to the ridiculous there is but one step." In this case, the picture is funny as it is, typical behaviour or not. But one thing is to be funny and another is to be a rare photograph of a typical behaviour, which if were truly typical, there would be more pictures of this typical behaviour, at least statistically. If this is typical behavior, and considering the rarity of photograps of this typical behaviour, then this would indeed be an extraordinary picture. Almost as rare, or more rare, than a picture of the Monster of Lock Ness. But if not, it is just a funny picture.--Tomascastelazo (talk) 03:22, 23 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
