Boeing 777 of Emirates in Tocumen International Airport
  • Very possible. I had this idea too when I imagined the view without. However, I don't find the effect a success, perhaps because it's washed out, relatively small in the image, and hiding the guy at the right (thus perhaps a convenient feature for COM:BLP but a weak point for the wow factor) -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:23, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Agree with everything Basile said. Doesn't work at all for me unfortunately. BigDom (talk) 21:00, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment There is a cool idea behind the photo, and the issues mentioned above are so easy to fix with a few tweaks, unless the idea was to depict a grey day at the airport. The warp tool in Photoshop was made to fix perspective and centering things like this. Using that, you get this version. And with a tweak of the levels this. Going for a 16:9 crop might also make it look cooler. Perhaps you could give it a try. You are, of course, also welcome to use any of my edits if you like. --Cart (talk) 11:29, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I was playing with this tool, however, the result generated by the tool seems false and exhibits a forced perspective, leading to a disproportion in the actual sizes of the objects. This can happen when automatic adjustments or preset filters are applied without considering the particularities of the captured scene. Additionally, the comment about the grey color of the sky, noting that it was a rainy day, from my perspective, it is always important to understand the context of the image. Verifying the date, time, and weather conditions at the airport to corroborate this, reflects the reality of a cloudy day. The photograph was taken from a distance, which poses certain difficulties in properly centering the objects. The comment about the effect on the glass is part of the main subject along with the pilots. --Wilfredor (talk) 15:58, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ok then, I'm sorry I misunderstood your intention. You wanted to present a rainy day at the airport and I, foolishly, was only looking for a cool photo of the aircraft. I apologize. --Cart (talk) 17:24, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
My dear Cart, come on you don't need tell me sorry for express your opinion ;) --Wilfredor (talk) 22:05, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
