Tempted support I am not sure how well this works as a satellite image; but I understand that the crop has been made for aesthetical purposes, and indeed the result looks like an impressive enigmatic artwork.

Oppose A nice enough image but it doesn't seem to have any "wow factor". There's nothing special that makes the image stand out. It's just a still image of a parked car. --Peulle (talk) 07:58, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
Oppose Nice effect, but a lot of disturbing elements in the background. --XRay 💬 08:03, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
Comment Good idea, but the car was not carefully enough selected or isolated. Also, there are left color fragments in the b&w area. The editing would have to be redone from scratch with a more appealing framing. This is just a constructive proposal. Best, -- Radomianin (talk) 08:43, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Comment This version in full length is better in my view, if possible with a portrait format, cutting the tree at the right, and symmetrically balanced with the same space at the left. However the branch will be a bit distracting -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:27, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
Comment I agree that the branch on the right of the larger image is distracting, which is why I made this crop. I've tried to inpaint it but I think there are too many details to get satisfying results. (Still trying with fancier models but it's taking 5 hours to run and I don't have too much hope that it will work well.) I don't know why I prefer the legs cropped when zooming in that much, I believe that she prefers it too, and in my opinion it's better to have more space on the left because she is looking towards the left and her eye is the only one we can clearly see. What do you think? --Trougnouf (talk) 10:21, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
- The other version evokes a kind of Cupid & Psyche romantic painting, while this one seems awkwardly cropped to me, as if the camera was too close -- Basile Morin (talk) 15:47, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
- Turns out that stable diffusion is really good at inpainting and worth the 5-hours runtime... I've uploaded the least cropped version in case you or anyone would like to give it a shot, and I propose this crop as the new submission. --Trougnouf (talk) 17:03, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

Oppose Too much editing of original. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:07, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
Support Beautiful, evoking mythological reminiscences, as Basile rightly stated, and certainly something fresh. I have no problem with the retouching as long as it’s declared and serves a honourable purpose. --Aristeas (talk) 20:24, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
- How do you mean -honourable purpose? The picture was poorly composed; it could easily have been taken a few meters away. Should we allow that much cloning? It is a difficult area, but we run the risk of making the original composition irrelevant. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:48, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
- Actually if you look a few meters away in the uncropped version you will notice that it was in the shadows and that this spot was pretty ideal (minus a hanging dead tree). Besides, even though we spent some time in front of the tripod, we were moving and not focusing on it when the picture was taken and the emotions we felt at that moment is what I think is FP worthy. I also think that this composition works very well. Trougnouf (talk) 20:58, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
- Removing a background element to make an image look better for aesthetical purposes is honourable; manipulating an image in order to back up fake news (e.g. that an elephant has climbed the Eiffel tower, that Jesus Christ blessed Putin or that Biden did steal the last presidential election from Trump) is not honourable. --Aristeas (talk) 09:07, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

- The reason I wouldn't support the cropped version is because this content does not impress me as a picture with an extraordinary visual impact. Sorry but I don't find this particular formation awesome. Not all Google satellite captures are spectacular either, to offer a comparison. The strong contrasts are unaesthetic, and the diversity of the colors quite limited. No wow, but it is just my subjectively view, of course.

- Red sea squirt (Halocynthia papillosa), Cape Palos, Spain. This species of tunicate, also known as sea peach, occurs at depths of 2 to 100 metres (6.6 to 328.1 ft). It attaches itself to rocks and overhangs, or among Posidonia (seagrass). It can be found in the Northeast Atlantic, Western Pacific, along the Portuguese coast, and the Mediterranean Sea. Halocynthia papillosa is usually about 10 centimetres (3.9 in) high but can reach 20 centimetres (7.9 in). It can contract when disturbed.

- Hermit crab (Dardanus calidus) with 3 sea anemones (Calliactis parasitica) on its back, Cape Palos, Spain. This species of crab can grow to a length of 12 centimetres (4.7 in) and it uses either large gastropod shells, such as those of Tonna galea and Charonia, which it often decorates with one or more sea anemones of the species Calliactis parasitica. The relationship between the sea anemone and the hermit crab is mutualistic: the sea anemone protects the hermit crab with its stings, and benefits from the food thrown up by the hermit crab's movements. Dardanus calidus is a scavenger, feeding on decaying matter from the sea bed. It has been collected from depths greater than 100 metres (330 ft), but is more typically found in shallower water, and it's spread from the East Atlantic (Portugal to Senegal) and Mediterranean Sea. Note: the shots were taken during a night dive since hermit crab are mostly active then. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 07:34, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Oppose I don't feel like this meets the criteria for a set nomination; the technical shortcomings may be overpowered by significant wow factor, but I don't see the big whoop on the image to the left. The one on the right has more wow due to the angle/composition, where the crab is facing you. In short, the image on the right might be an FP, but I feel that the left is definitely not.--Peulle (talk) 08:02, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
- I don't understand your feedback, Peulle. We have had several sets in the last months with big support where you could see animals (ej. here or here) from 2 angles, I'm doing the same and believe that in this case the front and lateral views are the most illustrative. So, I proposed this set like this because to me it looks like it is a consolidated practice. Poco a poco (talk) 10:21, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
- It's just my opinion that the left image is not FP due to technical shortcomings that are not compensated by wow factor. Therefore the set fails, in my opinion, because all images of a set have to succeed.--Peulle (talk) 11:11, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

- I'm not a biologist, Charlesjsharp, but if you google a bit (good source here) you can read that it is actually like that, the crab is the one in lead, chooses the anemones and arranges them on the shell. Poco a poco (talk) 10:21, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

We have featured photos before in which the background is blurred but with recognizable outlines and the subject is a bird. So why is this one unacceptable? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:52, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
Support per Ikan. A sharp background would be disastrous for such a photo – only because the background is properly out of focus the subject becomes recognizable. And at the same time the soft background adds atmosphere to the photo and shows that we are in Malta. --Aristeas (talk) 07:50, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

Oppose I can agree with Peulle that the church on the background is taking wiever's attention from the person. Mostly this is because person is backgrounded by shady side of a church. Changing angle a bit to place person on a projection of church facade would be FP with no objections. Sorry. Красный wanna talk? 13:30, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
- Agree the guy is in the shadow, and in front of a shadowy side of the building. As a consequence it's really the last element one notices when looking at this image, after the flags, the beam, and the blurry eye-catching facade. This man is supposed to be central, unfortunately we just see his back, behind the beam, dark, and like camouflaged -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:33, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
Weak oppose Interesting subject, but the salience isn't good IMO. It took too long to work out what I was looking at. Maybe if the falling man was in front of the pole so we could see his face, or he wasn't in such deep shadow, or the church in the background wasn't so bright, it could work.

- The settings were a very intentional decision. The picture should show the dynamics of the situation, a longer exposure time would simply not have worked at this point. With a shorter time the argument would have come here again that the picture is static. And f/2.8 simply has the reason that the background should be as blurred as much as possible.

- I wasn't ping but still have an opinion. I prefer the portrait version much better and would support it (I abstain here). By the way, is there anything you can do to improve the overexposed areas on the head? Poco a poco (talk) 08:20, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
New version uploaded - A few supported the portrait shot, and nobody expressed a preference for landscape, so I went ahead and reinstated the crop. As for the head, no -- not without adding something that wasn't actually there, anyway. The sun was bright, but it landed briefly unusually close to me and on a stick that actually provided some separation from the reeds (and wasn't backlit by the empty sky), so I'm happy with it anyway. :) — Rhododendrites talk | 12:51, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Question Is anyone else seeing the artefacts on the neck feathers and the halo around the tail? Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:11, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
- That area is not as sharp as others but I wouldn't call that artefacts Poco a poco (talk) 08:20, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Oppose You might be right that artefact (created by man) is the wrong word - a halo can either come from light distortion and be in the raw file or from processing - the halo on the tail looks like a processing flaw to me, but either is bad news. There are also over-exposed areas on the bird's head and the dead flowers. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:19, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Oppose per Basile – and where the hell is "somewhere in Madrid"? --SHB2000 (talk) 07:08, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Comment An interesting photo, but here we see the difference between Commons and, e.g., Flickr. ;–) On Flickr a title like Somewhere in Madrid would work well; on Flicker redundant and vague tags are the rule, not the exception. Here on Commons, however, people (including me) immediately ask “Where in Madrid? What building is this? What kind of architectural element? From what epoch?” etc. For learning by example I have tried to improve the categories a bit, but for a useful filename, description, and proper categorization we would need to know what exactly this photo shows … --Aristeas (talk) 09:20, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Comment And adding some tentative categories really helps. After browsing Architectural elements in Madrid and the best-matching subcategories for 3 minutes, I have already learnt that this photo shows the relief over the central entrance at the north façade of the Edificio Grassy, 1 Gran Vía, built 1916–1917. Here are more photos of that building; this photo shows the north façade and we can notice the entrance with the number 1; this photo shows exactly the same relief over that entrance. I do not report this here to boast — on the contrary, I’ve never been to Madrid, I’m sure other people would have figured it out even faster. I just want to show that we can use Commons itself to indentify such photos. Now if the photographer could please clarify the caption of his nice picture and add the categories (hint: you can copy the categories of this picture almost 1:1), I would also like to vote for this photo. --Aristeas (talk) 09:30, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Oppose Too much distortion. Couldn't it be taken from a larger distance, wherever in Madrid it is? --Palauenc05 (talk) 12:07, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Oppose Off-centre crop and angle of view too severe. BigDom (talk) 16:11, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Weak support Taking a look at the map shows that it should have been possible to take a photo from a larger distance. But on the other hand the intentionally low angle and the black-and-white add an air of mystery to the portal, making this photo much more moving that most plain photos of that building. --Aristeas (talk) 07:34, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
Support per Aristeas. I like the angle and think there's room for this as well as straighter-on shots that look more like File:Madrid - Edificio Grassy (Gran Vía 1) 07.jpg.

Oppose First the composition is a bit touristy. I can understand the idea of having a tent in the context that this is a tourist camp site. But this particular tent, with shoes & flip flops etc. showing doesn't work for me. And secondly, the image looks a bit over-processed? The leaves on the trees and the bottom of the mountains right behind it. A bit of a water colour painting feel to me. Great for water colour painting, not so much for a photo. -- KTC (talk) 23:51, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

At daytime the village in the valley is rather boring, but at night and with the starburst effect it looks nice.
