View from the cliff in south of Schönhagen over the Baltic Sea coast of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany
✓ Done The view angle is 275°, looking to the east in the middle. --Milseburg (talk) 22:28, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I don't find the composition compelling. The bottom is cut, and the light unappealing, due to the cylindrical projection. With this kind of picture, I usually feel like hallucinating , because it is so unreal, not fitting to any logic representation of the brain. Perhaps we would see it differently with bird eyes or fish eyes :-) I understand the educational potential of large views with mountains for example, or buildings, to locate them on the same image, but here as a landscape, only sea and cliff, what is the point of such a "psychotropic view" ? Similarly a tree with kilometers-long branches or a house with extraordinary large curved windows would just appear unaesthetic and strange, I think. Now if I make an effort to imagine this place with its corrected dimensions, not only I find it a bit ordinary (nothing special, harsh light), but also difficult (the shapes I try to build intellectually are certainly subjective and very different from the true ones). Probably this montage is a technical work, but I'm sure if this spot was really amazing, then a simple rectilinear projection would have made it much more attractive -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:21, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Question Did you scroll though it or looking the totale? --Milseburg (talk) 09:23, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Both, but the scrolling is reduced in the center -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:21, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I don't really got your "psychotropic" point. Where are distorted lines? Maybe the curved shoreline at the bottom if it wasn't cut. Of course nobody can see 275° in one view. But in full resolution you first see the north part of the cliff, then you turn your head and body while scrolling, and see the the Danisch island Ærø on the other side of the sea, the Cumulonimbus over the horizon, the drift of the former cliff under the water and finally the south part of the cliff. It´s representing my optical impression in synopsis while standing on this geotop and let my eyes wander from north over east to south. --Milseburg (talk) 11:29, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Why I find this view psychotropic ? It does not correspond to any visual reality in my brain. Although, it is a landscape, for sure. Then, I wonder : Is my vision altered by some kind of a magic mushroom, or is this landscape really distorted ? Of course, it is distorted by the cylindrical projection, but at first sight things are not obvious. Symmetrical cliffs with rounded beaches certainly exist somewhere on Earth, with real lines and true relief, but this view here is just odd like twisted unfortunately -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:31, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Basile explained it well – Lucas 08:17, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose If I look at this on Google maps I see a perfectly straight stretch of coast. But if I look at the above image and I see a curved bay. This is false, an illusion due to the projection. Really, this kind of extreme wide angle only makes sense in a 360° image viewer tool. And yes, the view from a straight coast, out to a blank sea, in the midday sun, is not really that amazing. I would really, really, encourage Milseburg to take up a different kind of photography in 2019, where you choose a composition by framing something interesting, and seek out interesting light, rather than just swinging the camera around in an arc. -- Colin (talk) 12:23, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I see it different. I expected it would be a challenge to support this kind of image. I have no problem if anybody is unable to share my ardor for making it like this. --Milseburg (talk) 23:38, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Lüdinghausen gate at night, Dülmen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
  • Sometimes it is really difficult. There are a lot of disturbing elements around the gate. It's not a street lamp, it's the lightning of the gate from the other side. The crop at the left: I used 20 mm focal length, may be other with a fish eye lens. Then you can see the pharmacy on the left, but not the tree. And on the right, you may see a disturbing street sign and another building. --XRay talk 07:18, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Disturbing elements" are never a good start for a great picture... Now paying more attention to this lightning, it is facing us straight, sending its strong rays in front. That's maybe why it's so embarrassing. And its reflection on the ground is even more agressive, interfering with the rear lights of the car -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:58, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Temple Wat Xieng Thong - Luang Prabang - Laos
  • This is a very standard perspective. You can compare with that image from Google. Here is a 21 mm focal length, almost the same than this shot at 24 mm, only the angle was different. Not sure the several buildings are perfectly parallel to each other, but they could also, logically a building located more on the left would have shown its right side. The only transformations made from my RAW file were a rotation of 2,9° to level the horizon, and 18% vertical adjustment to fix the vertical lines. From this point my camera is facing the white building, while looking aside the big one, then I don't understand why these buildings should "all be aligned", this is a normal perspective projection, not isometric -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:01, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Meadow Brown - Maniola jurtina, male
  • I really don't think we should have too many FPs of similar objects such as species variants. I mean, where do we draw the line on similar FPs of a good panorama view? Just take a few steps to the left and so the position is different? Is it enough of a difference for the same butterfly to sit on different flowers, or be in a different light? The lines may be blurred but for me, this is too close. I am going to  Oppose this vote as we already have a good existing FP (several, in fact). I might support a nomination to replace that one, but we should not ignore the existence of current FPs and simply promote new ones on top of the existing ones. --Peulle (talk) 11:35, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A swamp below the top of Doune Hill, Scotland
@Colin Hum, now I understand why my Scottish friends were smiling when I said "It's really swampy here". I should have said "boggy"! I guess it's almost as big faux pas as to talk about "lakes" in Scotland instead of "lochs". Anyway, thanks for the vote, I'll rename the file after the nomination's over. --Podzemnik (talk) 09:33, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Not that this is really germane to the image, but—the difference is more (moor? ) than just a word. A swamp and a bog are different things: the former is basically a drowned forest, which, I grant, this image isn't of, and although nothing in the image or its description says this for certain based on where it is I will agree that it probably is a bog.

But did we really need to delete Category:Swamps in the United Kingdom? I would agree there probably aren't a lot, and I don't see swamps in the images I've perused so far in Category:Wetlands of the United Kingdom, but I don't think that means there are no swamps in the UK, period? From what I've read there used to be more and most of them were drained and filled to create farmland ... but surely some small patches of wet woodlands exist somewhere? Daniel Case (talk) 21:48, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Daniel Case I deleted "Swamps in the United Kingdom" because I created the category especially for this picture. There were no other pictures than this one and after I had moved it to "Bogs in the United Kingdom", there was no image left. --Podzemnik (

talk) 06:23, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Podzemnik: OK; I didn't realize that we had not had that category prior to this. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't recreate it if someone actually does take some pictures of British swamps. Daniel Case (talk) 06:27, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Milseburg I could have done 360 panorama but 1) I'm not really sure how to handle the light while shooting 360 and 2) I'm not a big fan of 360 panoramas. That's a bit too much for me. To me, ideal format of panorama is something like this. My nomination here is barely 180, more likely around 120 degrees panorama. Yes, conditions that day were perfect. Lot of sun and fog, quite rare for the Scottish winter. --Podzemnik (talk) 14:32, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: it doesn't look like it will pick up enough support after all these opposes.

    Thank you, Colin, for pointing that out. It was my mistake not to mention that myself. Still, I wonder whether the fact that between both images where taken 4 minutes after each other is a reason not to consider it a valid nom. The motif is of course the same, but I was there over one hour and this nom reflects the special moment when the leopard with bloody snout was looking towards me. Also the crop is much tigther and the position of the kill is pretty different. In fact, I like this image much more than the other one. --Poco2 21:10, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Poco, almost all us reviewers are also photographers. We know that on a shoot we take lots of photos. And some have this special quality and some have that special quality and it can sometimes be hard to guess which one is the best. But this isn't QI and finest is finest. Many reviewers and nominators do actually take the time to look at the FP category, the image categories, and compare with other images already uploaded and already awarded. As we've discussed before, you require more review comments to achieve a gold star than any other photographer here, by some distance. Simply because you expect us to filter out the "meh" and "done already". Multiple times you have nominated photos from the same shoot without mention or apparent embarassment. We could spend all day trying to work out if one image's qualities (looking towards you, but clearly disturbed by the photographer) are better than another image's qualities (eating the kill, apparently undisturbed). The point of "finest" is to pick one. And, with the images from a shoot, that's your job as nominator.
    This year you have nominated 13 images, only 6 pass, 5 withdrawn, and received over 120 review comments and votes by other people. But in turn, you have reviewed only 6 images for other people, in one 15 minute interval. You are expecting us all to take greater care to review your photos than you spend yourself on your own photos, never mind the miniscule effort you spend on others' photos. Most other Commons-experienced photographers here have very high pass rates, some are 100%. If you aren't willing to help select "the finest on Commons" by revewing your own photos better, and doing your share to review others' photos, then why should we waste our time with your careless nominations. -- Colin (talk) 08:17, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Basotxerri: just a friendly suggestion-remark here: maybe putting an oppose in the midst of a nomination that will surely garner FP status, isn't the most ideal thing to do? It would just delay the process and may cause minor inconveniences... Would you want someone to do that to your nomination? The Golden Rule, man... 😬 Cheers, by the way; it's your decision and I can't change your opinion. 😁 :) ― Gerifalte Del Sabana 01:31, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

King of Hearts, thanks for your comment. Imho all shadows direct to the main motive - even the shadow of the climbing frame for childs at the very right. I tried to integrate the inevitable shadows into the composition to help the motive. For an overview about the scenery, see File:Strandpaviljoen-Paal-10-Ouddorp.jpg --Tuxyso (talk) 19:54, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Of course I understand that you didn't just randomly leave a shadow without noticing - however, to the extent that it contributes to the composition, the leading lines lead to the pole on the right with nothing to bring us back to the main subject IMO. As a whole, I would say the image converges on a point which is too far to the right. -- King of 21:04, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment - Nice picture, but in view of yesterday's discussion, I feel impelled to ask you whether you downsampled the picture and whether you'd offer a full-size picture as the nominated one. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:54, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Only cropped from a 24Mpx sensor. I will not reopen the discussion here which has nothing to do with the nomination. Please comment on the photo or leave. --Tuxyso (talk) 21:48, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's an appropriate question. Your rudeness doesn't well dispose me to vote for the picture, which is what I was planning to do, barring downsampling. You opened yourself up to that question always being relevant to your nominations. You would do well to answer it calmly, and I will vote once I'm in a better frame of mind. Thanks. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:08, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I just saw your clarification below. Appreciated, though I wish you had not responded so sharply here. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:11, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support - Nice, interesting composition, including the shadows. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:13, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose The rubbish bins are very unfortunate and central, and the shadow distracting. Although the light is nice, the subject itself isn't amazing enough to me for wow at FP. I prefer the File:Strandpaviljoen-Paal-10-Ouddorp.jpg view (though at FP I'd be expecting a stitched panorama rather than a heavy crop). I also note that "Please comment on the photo or leave." is extremely rude. Ikan was commenting on the photo which is quite low resolution for a landscape image. As a forum for selecting "the finest" images on Commons, the photo, the nomination itself and other review comments are all open for discussion. FP Commons:Image guidelines ask that images are not downsampled, and since this photo is only 75% of the size of the camera's resolution, that is a fair question to ask. Better technique would have rewarded us with a 24MP image rather than a 14MP image, if this is merely a 2:3 crop. Tuxyso, I think you are grumpy at being called out for pixel peeping, and should also naturally expect that if you do pixel peep review, then other reviewers will not accept any hint of downsizing from your own nominations. -- Colin (talk) 09:30, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Thanks for your comment. For the case you've not noticed: a) Ikan and I are fine again after some clarifications. b) I have never asked for downscaling as I have also clarified --Tuxyso (talk) 10:50, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Your "clarifications" are nothing of the sort, just political games. Note Ikan's comment above about your sharp tone, which doesn't sound "fine again" at all. I'm not interested in folk who just play games with words to try to excuse themselves when they have done something bad. Pixel peeping reviews are bad. Being rude to reviewers who enquire about downsizing is bad. Unwatching. -- Colin (talk) 12:32, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • The picture is still not convincing to me, because I find the bushes distracting. For this kind of picture where everything is in the shapes (dark silhouettes only, no colors, no volumes, no textures), you need a very striking composition IMO, otherwise it's not exceptional enough as FPs should be -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:51, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@XRay So it's a stone with holy water? I think it'd be good to write it in the description of the file. At least to me, it's quite unusual to see such a big holy water fountain in the middle of the church. Anyway, it's a totally well done picture with a great wow factor so big  Support from me. --Podzemnik (talk) 15:16, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is a stoup or a baptismal font, hopefully the correct translation. I'll ask and append it to the description. --XRay talk 15:29, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
BTW: I also know of walk-in baptisteries / fonts, see for example: File:Maria-Magdalena-Kirche-Wattenscheid-Taufstelle.jpg. During the christening the priest walks together with the child being christened inside the font. --Tuxyso (talk) 16:06, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The church was built from 1936 to 1938 and partially destroyed during the World War II. The chapel wasn't rebuild. The original baptismal font (of the chapel) is located at the end of the church near the crypt. The stoup is located at the door, but unused. So I'm not sure, baptismal font or stoup. But I'm living in Dülmen. It's no problem to get an answer. --XRay talk 17:45, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Abstract painting by Sohrab Sepehri, Iranian poet and a painter.
  •  Question - If you didn't know where the painter was from, would you be able to tell that it was "non-Western"? Isn't this just international-style abstract art of the 1960s that happens to have been painted by an Iranian man? I happen to dislike this piece, but I note that it was painted in 1969, so since it's still highly regarded by the art establishment 50 years later (boy does that reckoning make me feel old, as I actually remember seeing art shows in Soho in 1969, when I was 4), I feel conflicted about the thought of voting against a feature on the basis that the art says nothing to me. I'll say, nevertheless, that this would certainly be a useful VI, regardless. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:19, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Problems with the depth of the field that make some prominent areas are out of focus, poor lighting that generates little contrast, the camera is dirty.

Poor lightning though all is lightend well? A few dustspots you call the camera is dirty? Very joky. --Wladyslaw (talk) 06:57, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose per others, particularly the drab grey background, shallow DOF and all the dirt. You could have wiped the camera clean and blown off remaining dust (or remove it digitally). You could have performed a focus stack to get all relevant areas of the subject in focus and not blurry. You could have controlled the background better using extra light and/or a translucent surface and/or post-processing. A clean white background makes it also more suitable for use in articles, see this example: File:2017 Nikon D5500.jpg. The pure encyclopedic value gets more consideration at the Wikipedia FP candidates, here at Commons FPC we tend to focus more on photographic merit. As a last note, the file name is a bit too generic for my taste, at least the lens should have been mentioned. – Lucas 10:33, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose It is close up and detailed. Possibly over-sharpened and contrasty. Not sure the colour temperature is right as it looks a bit too yellow/golden for midday. I don't think this is a particularly flattering photo of a meerkat who is a messy and has some eye gunk. The head direction, telephoto lens and dof all mean we lose any depth information about the face, which is certainly not flat. I'm also not getting a sense of character from the portrait, which is often present in meerkats (whether real or imaginary in our eye). Meerkats are an easy shot in zoos, so I think we should expect a great portrait. -- Colin (talk) 20:15, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose - Very good photo of the meerkat, but I find the level of contrast with the background insufficient for it to be a great photo. Sadly, since at least yesterday (2 days ago, I think), Commons searches for FPs, QIs or VIs have stopped working again, so I can't easily find other FPs of meerkats, but nevertheless, this is my view. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:17, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You could see the shadow problem what Im talking about here File:Bad union between layers that generates shadow.jpg. User:Podzemnik --Photographer 02:12, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I can just about see a difference. No layers were used, but a shadow can come from colour noise reduction - that's the only possibility I can think of. See what you think of the new version Photographer Charles (talk) 11:20, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Do you see any problems with new version? Photographer Charles (talk) 21:45, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry, but I still see the same problem in lesser proportion. My suggestion is not to repair an image to which a noise reduction has been applied wrongly, but to rethink the way you use to eliminate noise and start the process again but in the right way. --Photographer 15:00, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Les Huguenots Act I


  • I'd prefer not to. The main image is not absolutely rectangular in shape, so either a small amount of the edge of the painting would need cropped out, or I'd have to restore outwards the edge of the painting, when, as I said, there's a perfectly good way to make arbitrary crops for thumbnails. And I really don't like changing artistic intent for relatively capricious reasons. Plus, it would be inconsistent with File:Set design by Philippe Chaperon for Act4 sc2 of Aida by Verdi 1880 Paris.jpg, and other future potential images. And it's not like Chaperon does this with every image he makes; it's actually relatively rare, and may indicate something specific, like them being intended for display (the ones they're done on tend to be particularly visually impressive). Oh, and I literally spent 16 hours restoring that fucking border. If I didn't feel strongly about it before - well, I wouldn't have done it in the first place, but afterwards...
In any case, we're not just a place to make thumbnails for Wikipedia (Hell, a number of our featured images here are not and will not ever be used on any Wikipedia, Wikisource, Wikiversity, or any other related project). It would be silly to create a situation where a number of possible reuses are made more difficult because we concealed the one most useful for printing. Adam Cuerden (talk) 21:14, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also, we can literally just do this with CSS image crop and some surprisingly annoying maths:

{{CSS image crop |Image=Philippe Chaperon - Meyerbeer - Les Huguenots Act I (1896).jpg |bSize= 466|cWidth=370 |cHeight=311 |oTop= 51|oLeft= 47}}

...I am thinking of doing a template to take the equations - which are slightly complex. For example, for a crop of this image, with width X, here's the values you need bSize = X*5084/4035 | cWidth=X | cHeight=X* 3388/4035 | oTop= X*551/4035| oLeft=X*508/4035 - It feels like we can simplify the CSS crop interface by using numbers auto-generated by crop tool (which I used to figure out what numbers to use to form those equations) and plugging them in instead. They're much more readily available. Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:09, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
Hi Colin! I'm using only a bit of dehaze (+5) and clarity (+5) for the whole picture. I think the bottom right looks too contrasty because it's a north facing slope without much light. I applied a mask there to make it look more natural. I hope it's better. Greetings, --Podzemnik (talk) 20:35, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that the foreground looks strange and a bit unnatural. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:54, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You think so? Even now after I applied the mask? It's looking OK to me now. --Podzemnik (talk) 09:33, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I find that this photo looks good at 40% of its size, which is bigger than 50% of the previous version's size that that one looks good at. At those sizes, I really don't perceive a difference. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:21, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I wish you the funds to buy a high DPI monitor so that "full res" has pixels too small for you to peep. Your vote is nothing less than a request to downsize and an insult to those generous enough to donate images full size. This image is 5.3 metres across when viewed "full res" on a standard monitor. The nomination is for a JPG in the repository, not a specific-sized rendering in your browser. Commons is not a publisher. How you choose to view the image is your choice, though made somewhat awkward by the MediaWiki interface. If you choose to view magnified so large it doesn't fit in your room, and view it from 50cm, then the flaws you see are purely down to your bad viewing choices. This kind of vote is harmful to the project. Please consider that while you may choose to downsize your images so they look pixel-perfect at 100%, others do not and should not be punished for that. -- Colin (talk) 23:02, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I have been absent from COM a few years and must observe that the verbal tonality in discussions changed negatively. In the past the discussions here were very constructive and also valueing. In the current disussion I made an argument with in-detail explanatory statement and Colin repeatedly shortens it to: "Looks bad in 100%, please downscale". Again, and also for [[Ikan Kekek: I do NOT postulate to downscale the image to look better. I only argue that the technical issues which could be avoided by a better shooting technique (more precise focus point, more overapping especially at the edges) and a better post-processing. Please sustain also a deviating (my very own) opinion. There is not only one truth. --Tuxyso (talk) 22:14, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think that's a reasonable point of view and thank you for clarifying. Note that I haven't voted on this nomination, but have only made some comments above. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:10, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Tuxyso, the fact remains that if this image had been downsized and uploaded at 24 or 36MP you would not have noticed any sharpness or noise issues. You may have complained about other processing issues, but not those. So, some of your oppose rationale is only present because you are pixel peeping a gigantic 105MP image. You insist that "I have to assess the image which is nominated here" but the image that is nominated here can be viewed by you at any resolution you wish. Just because it is uploaded at 105MP does not mean you have to view it or review it at that size. That is your choice, and one I think that is unfair on the nominator. You also insist it must be "a pleasure...in full res version". So, while you can claim you haven't requested it be downsized, your vote is an implicit message that nominators will be punished with an oppose if they dare to nominate any image that is not perfect at 100%. The consequence of pixel peeping is that some nominators downsize to avoid these kinds of votes. And so we end up getting 6MP natural landscape images at FPC in 2019 when we should be getting 24MP+ images. Commons is poorer as a result.
I feel strongly that pixel peeping reviews harm Commons FP. See User:Colin/PixelPeeping where I noted "a 24MP image is not twice as bad as a 6MP image. It is superior in every way, except to a pixel peeper.". Sure, with better technique and better equipment and better processing, we might have a super sharp and noiseless 105MP image. But we do also have a this image that is the same one nominated here, just rendered in your browser at 24MP. That is the nominated image too, but you choose to find fault when you choose to view it magnified 2x on your monitor. -- Colin (talk) 09:09, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Convolvulus hawk-moth (Agrius convolvuli) 2.jpg
  • I'm already at maximum aperture (F5.6) and would have gone to 1/2000 and ISO 800 if I had time. I find that although sharpness would be better at 1/4000, overall quality (for print or FP pixel-peeping) really deteriorates above ISO 800. With this sort of photography I use a preset of 1/1600 or 1/2000 sec. If I leave it up to the camera's brain (SCN Sports), it can get confused: if it sees the insect's body as pretty still it reduces shutter speed. If it sees the wings it might select 1/8000 and a very high ISO. On my Canon 80D I have two presets (C1 and C2). I program one at 1/1600 (TV = shutter priority: S on Nikon I think) and one at 1/2000. I then get better depth of field if the light happens to be really good. Not this time. Charles (talk) 11:08, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment - I agree. I considered opposing, as I don't see a great composition, but the composition is not bad, helped by the wooden spikes, and as you say, the photo is technically very good, so I don't see the point in standing in the way of consensus on this. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:40, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vaulting in the Saint Gerald abbey church of Aurillac, Cantal, France
  •  Comment - My understanding is that the vaults in Gothic cathedrals were indeed intended to awe, as they represented the vault of the Heavens, and the stained glass windows, aside from telling sacred stories, were meant to filter colored light into the cathedrals like Heavenly jewels. In addition, with their tall ceilings and towers, Gothic cathedrals were commonly visible for miles as pilgrims walked to church. So I would definitely disagree that they were not designed with "wow" in mind. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:53, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Ikan Kekek: This is not a cathedral but an abbey church where visitors in medieval time came not even close to the crossing as they had to stay behind the rood screen. Instead, this belongs to a very intimate place where monks went down the stairs from the dormitory at the middle of the night, walked through the south transept and the crossing, turning to the choir to hold a candlelit vigil in the stalls.
@Colin: As you well know, “wow” is nowhere mentioned in the nominating guidelines of COM:FPC. Instead the guidlines tell that candidates “should be in some way special”. Gothic architecture including that of austere abbey churches is “interesting stuff” even if it is not overwhelming with eye candy. One might wonder if a particular photograph is good at catching the atmosphere and the architecture of an object like this. For example, I would prefer a shot like this one from the ambulatory of the same church if it would be of the same quality. Gothic architecture comes always with lights and shadows which continually change the shapes during the course of a day. In this FP candidate, however, we see just the vault which is illuminated quite uniformely with polychromatic light (probably coming from stained glass). This is not the fault of the photographer and the photo is unquestionable valuable but in my opinion this kind of light spoils the solemnity of the vault. So, in this case I would not support FP status but surely not for having no “wow”. --AFBorchert (talk) 00:12, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for explaining. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:00, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
AFBorchert, the Commons:Image guidelines which the nomination page links to as "Please read the complete guidelines before nominating", does mention "wow", twice. Indeed, "wow factor" is the only quality-related differentiating factor it mentions vs QI, though the nomination page also says FP is to determine images to be "highlighted as some of the finest on Commons", which indicates an exclusive top spot that QI doesn't aim for either. Photographically, this image is unoriginal and a very common approach to capturing such a ceiling. I've done that myself (File:Paisley Abbey Ceiling.jpg) but that ceiling is far more interesting to look at. One problem with this view is that can be very hard to judge depth, leaving the result looking like a pattern but less clear form. The other photo you link has much better light, and it is easy to see the form of the ceiling. A photographer could take a less wow ceiling but capture it with great light and/or a great viewpoint and composition, and produce an FP. Perhaps my original "this can't be" is too strong: it is just much harder to achieve. If one starts with a fantastic ceiling, then one almost only has to make sure the camera is dead centre, pointing straight up and sufficient DoF. Or to put it another way, someone has to create "wow": either the stonemasons or the photographer. -- Colin (talk) 09:47, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You are right, Colin, I missed the “wow” in Commons:Image guidelines. But I still think that this term is unfortunate as the term strengthens the short-term effect of the eye-candyness factor too far to my taste. Otherwise, I agree that depth is a problem for this candidate. --AFBorchert (talk) 15:26, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support - Lovely. On brightening, though: The brighter version may look better in isolation, but you're giving something up, which is the atmosphere of an impending thunderstorm.

  • Hi Colin, I know that f/16 probably was chosen for maximising the exposure time but you can do that by using a second ND filter two. The problem is that on Micro Four Thirds, you'll suffer quality loss up from smaller apertures than f/8. f/16 on MFT is the equivalent of f/32 on Full Frame. --Basotxerri (talk) 20:10, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
