Info created by someone named K. Pęcherski - restored, uploaded & nominated by -- Wolf (talk) 12:33, 11 November 2009 (UTC)- Info on the picture itself, today is Independence Day in Poland, so I'm nominating a portrait of the man to whom we - i.e. Poles - owe the independence to a large extent. I chose this particular picture for two reasons. 1. It was most probably taken some time during World War I, so Piłsudski was soon going to become the architect of Poland's liberation from over a century of partitions. 2. I simply like the mood of the picture and his appearance here, it perfectly corresponds with how he wanted to be percieved.
- Info on the restoration, this is my very first attempt at it so I'm not going to mind even strong crticism providing that it's backed with some feedback about what I should've done better. Thanks in advance.
Support -- Wolf (talk) 12:33, 11 November 2009 (UTC)- Weak support Good restoration. My only complaints are relatively low resolution and the tight crop on top. I'm sure this great man deserves a little more headroom ;-) -- JovanCormac 15:18, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Oppose I do not know why you cropped the top so tightly; I see that there was an inscription near the top in the original image, but if you had wanted to remove that, I suppose you could have cloned it out. —Notyourbroom (talk) 04:47, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
Question And if I left more headroom with the inscription? Wolf (talk) 08:59, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
Comment Inscription is very small, it should be easy to remove it. If you want, I can do it. But on the other hand, the writing itself is quite interesting. --Leafnode✉ 12:27, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
- Comment That's what I think to. I'll give it try today. Wolf (talk) 14:06, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
- Info I've been trying to do it, but I just don't have enough skill (yet), apparently. Any help of yours would be appreciated. And yes, I think it will be better with the photographer's signature. I does add some value, after all. Wolf (talk) 16:23, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
