  • Nomination Reredos of St Fabian and Sebastian, Romanesque interpretation centre, Luesia, Zaragoza, Spain --Poco a poco 07:56, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Support Good quality. --Plozessor 17:52, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
  •  Oppose I think the crucifixion scene at the top and the top panel on the right are too bright and the colors are therefore unnatural. I know from experience how difficult it is sometimes to photograph such painting, but in my opinion difficulties are not a criterion for a quality image. Please discuss. -- Spurzem 18:14, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
  • ✓ New version --Poco a poco 20:47, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support O.K. for me.--Ermell 22:42, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support good rework. --Smial 15:03, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
  •  Comment I can't imagine that the colors of the middle panel above and the top panel on the right are anywhere close to reality. But maybe it's because of my eyes that I can't share the general enthusiasm for the photo. -- Spurzem 18:33, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
  •  Comment @Poco a poco: @Spurzem: Indeed this seems to have a bit more yellow in reality; there's a professional picture here. --Plozessor 13:37, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
  •  Comment @Poco a poco: @Spurzem: @Plozessor: In your example, the tablecloth on the altar has a visible yellow tint. Normally they are pure white. With mixed lighting, you often have to decide in favour of one variant. In the professional picture, the decision was apparently made to reduce the blue cast in the areas with daylight. This makes everything else slightly yellowish. Poco has decided to achieve a colour balance that is as neutral as possible. This is definitely not a quality defect. --Smial 08:41, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
  • @Smial: That's why I support this photo, see my comment to Spurzem below. --Plozessor (talk) 13:45, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
  •  Support Good now. Thanks to Smial for his comment on the white balance and the comparison of the photos! --Aristeas 10:57, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
@Smial: I do not think like you. The lower part of the retable shows colors similar to those that can be seen in reality under artificial light. The upper part, especially the crucifixion scene, has an unsightly blue cast. -- Spurzem 13:14, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
 Comment I think we don't have clear guidelines for "correct" colors under non-white light. Had one picture of a wayside shrine that looks yellow in reality because it's in a dark niche and most of the light that reaches it is reflected by the yellow walls, but that was not accepted as a QI. Only when I changed the white balance, so that the picture showed the object as it would appear under white light, it was accepted. We might have a similar case here - should the picture resemble the yellowish light in the church, or should it show the object as it would look under white light? --Plozessor 13:44, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
 Comment The pictures in the virtual tour linked by Plozessor have exactly the same problems in several different views, only, as already mentioned, the professional photographers there have opted for a more yellowish colour balance, which is just "wrong" in a different way. There, too, parts that receive light from the windows are slightly bluish in colour compared to the rest. That's just the way it is with mixed light. --Smial 17:11, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
I think we all know how difficult it can be to photograph paintings and to reproduce the colors evenly. But can I say a picture is good or even excellent if this consistent reproduction is not achieved? -- Spurzem 19:26, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
Who exactly forbade you from doing that? --Smial 20:13, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
