The photos is taken in the late evning (almost 10 pm) You do not have a lot of details on barren tableland--Ankara 15:53, 20 July 2009 (UTC)I know it's a shadow, it's still called underexposure. It was your choice to frame the photo this way and shoot at that hour and you ended up with a nearly featureless foreground.

Nomination The courthouse in Tours. --Eusebius 17:49, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
Decline Correctly exposed for the sky, but has left the building much too dark. This needs some selective brightening. Also, rather a lot of pavement in the foreground. Some CA, too (top left). Maedin 12:11, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
I had seen the CA already, but there isn't anything much I can do about it: near the corner of the picture, necessary high contrast, already at f/9... About the pavement: do you want a lot of pavement or a lot of sky? :-) About exposure (both pics): OK. I just don't have the ability to correct it. --Eusebius 13:16, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Comment It's an undeveloped parcel of land in the middle of Richmond, BC which has become a point of contention between Citizens who want it left as wetlands/peatbog or turned to community gardens and the City and local aboriginals who want to develop it. I uploaded it for the city's article on Wikipedia. --BlueSquadronRaven 20:34, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Ok, fair enough, :-) Just for the record though, I investigated and was informed that this is not HDR or exposure blended. Diliff only brightened the shadows a little. Maedin 18:18, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
I stand corrected, thanks. --Iotatau 18:44, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Withdrawn 1/20 s at 300 mm doesn't work, unfortunately. Might be worth a try as a "Valued Picture". --Iotatau 16:05, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
why doesnt 1/20 at 300m work 300mm is focal distance and 1/20s is the time the shutter is open what wrong with this? Gnangarra 01:26, 6 July 2009 (UTC), Contra at large focal lengths the camera shake gets amplified too. This can be avoided with shorter exposure times.

A scaled down version can't be QI if a larger version exists. Lycaon 06:54, 4 July 2009 (UTC) My reason for nominating both was that, due to its extremely high resolution, small flaws and noise are more easily visible in the full version. This debate comes up from time to time, whether it is fair for lower-resolution images to be approved for QI or FP when a higher-resolution version might be rejected, despite being of greater worth.

Oh I do love turtle nests, my only opinion is that the sand is very bad thing to take an image of, becouse of the few contrast the image lacks dimension. and everything is centered. you dont need to make a strange angle to have a good composition. i think by example with a side light the sand would have offered a richer surface.-LadyofHats 08:16, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

A few comments, first typo, should say "Transform into amastigotes", second "amastigotes infect other cells or are phagocytosed" would be better as "amastigotes infect new macrophages", third only procyclic promastigotes replicate as they differentiate into non-replicative metacyclic promastigotes before migrating into the pharanyx, fourth the importance of granulocyte invasion versus macrophage invasion is still controversial so I'd recommend mentioning that the metacyclics might simply invade macrophages upon entry into the mammalian host.

Comment Have a brighter display. Or explain what you exactly mean with "too dark" --EvaK 18:42, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
My display is bright enough. Today I am sitting in front of a different PC and it still is too dark. What part of "too dark" don't you understand? Of course the overall brightness is ok, but the main subject is the building and this is IMHO too dark. Not dark enough to strictly oppose, but too dark to support it.
Another issue, albeit only a slight issue is the artificial sharpening, at least it looks to me as if it has been sharpened. A bit over the top IMHO, but acceptable. -- H005 15:41, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
Neutral (sharpness is ok on this one, but suboptimal lighting) I guess it's "too dark" due to unfortunate weather on location. Anyway, I don't know why this image is in the discussion section. It has been declined after review from a user and there hasn't been any veto from any other reviewer. So it's declined. Please respect the QI procedure. And Eva, by the way, please don't always tell people that they have bad LCD screens. I'm using a color calibrated NEC SpectraView - and see the same. --Afrank99 17:29, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Lack of sharpness ?? Can you show me a non-oversharpened example with the same resolution please ? Richard Bartz 15:53, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

I don't think it's relevant for QI whether there aren't any better pictures, that argument is only valid for COM:VI. The sharpness of the face is excellent, just the body isn't. But my oppose is only weak, if Mbdortmund or others support it, ok. -- H005 12:36, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Can you please explain to me what do you mean with diffuse light ? Is it underexposed or overexposed ? Is direct sunlight a quality feature ? Available light and to shadow my subjects is part of my photographic style/preference. Richard Bartz 14:38, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Support For me it's a "portrait", as the file name says, and body sharpness is not important. Overcast light and no sun help to keep the dynamic range in check. I am not a fan of the fence in the background but overall I consider it to be a QI. --Iotatau 17:27, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Support A few (very light) spots on the sky indeed, which can easily be corrected - Please do it! The 'distortion' is mostly due to perspective correction, and is rather an improvement IMO. Otherwise everything seems OK: sharpness, colours, light, composition. So → QI for me. -- MJJR 18:39, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

I am a tad confused now. -- H005 18:42, 14 July 2009 (UTC) -- Comment When you correct the perspective distortion of the vertical lines in your picture, the horizontals which are not perfectly horizontal show often some unnatural distortion: their obliquity is accentuated.

Comment This one was pretty close and violent, so it is possible that the camera shaked. But if the double lightnings would be caused by the camera move, everything would be doubled, isn't? Yann 00:09, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
Comment If you look to the lightening on the left side and right sides, it's doubled as well. That can't be the camera moving, it would smear, not double. My guess is it's caused by reflection. --Calibas 02:17, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
Comment If you look at the building, you see two images as well, a strong one, and a hollow one (due to a camera vertical move of the camera), and this is not reflection. Not every lightning is doubled because exposure time is 30s and lightnings don't last for 30s. The lightning on the left, for instance, had one flash before the move and one flash after the move, but all the flashes of the centre lightning occured either before or after the move. --Eusebius 07:19, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
