Info A risky nomination and I don't know what you'll think to this. But there is something about the composition that I find really interesting and I like it more the longer I look at it. I think it's the warm and inviting light, the leading lines from the sweep of the road and the brickwork, the rich colours, and the contrast between the almost aggresive regularity of the brickwork and the repeating patterns in the roofs, compared with the somewhat eclectic architecture of the house. Anyway, it's subtle, but this is IMO a really good example of how to shoot a street in a small town. created by Johann Jaritz - uploaded by Johann Jaritz - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 20:23, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry but while this is a pretty motif and a good photograph, it is tilted and some way short of FP sharpness. Cmao20 (talk) 20:25, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose -- I am sorry too, Mounir. The ISO is high, the shutter speed is more than ample for a 50mm lens, but f/32 creates a lot of diffraction, and its amplified by the APS-C sensor on the camera. The birds are not in sharp focus, nor are the people or the homes. The colors look wonderful. Needsmoreritalin (talk) 02:29, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If I understand well, Wilfredor is not very happy that the image wheighs "only" 16.11 MB and is saying that I should have uploaded a version that weighs more MB. It is true that I uploaded a version that was compressed with Photoshop to a quality of 11 out of 12. But I strongly disagree with his statement for many reasons :

1) The rules don't forbid small jpg compression (they only forbid strong compression). Actually the rules even recommend using a jpg compression of minimum 80 or 90% and this is what was done here with a 92% compression ;

2) A compression of 11 out of 12 has a result of pratically no difference compared to a 12/12 quality export. Even zooming at 200% and comparing pixel by pixel I never saw any difference between the two with the naked eye ;

3) Usually I only do the 11/12 instead of letting the 12/12 when the image size is above 20 MB. Excessive file sizes are bad for many reasons ;

4) Wiki Commons has available storage issues and uploading files with excessive size will only make it worse ;

5) Excessive file size will take a lot longer to load for people with slow internet ;

6) Excessive file size might make some old smartphones crash when opening the file ;

7) Excessive file size is bad for bandwidth and will slow down the server ;

8) Many of my images have been loaded more than 1 million times per file, if you multiply this number with excessive file size it would be a waste of bandwidth. Examples : 4M views in 4 years, 2.6M views in 1 year, 1.4M views in 1 year, 2.1M views in 1 year 2.3M views in 1 year, etc.

9) If there was a policy of only accepting only loseless uploads we would only be uploading PNG format, which is not the case here and is on the contrary to be avoided.

Best regards, -- Giles Laurent (talk) 20:38, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not saying that this is the case and also every photographer should be free to edit their photos as they see fit, and we enter a grey area where it can be a decision of the photographer or a technical error according to some. Destructive editing does not only involve compression of JPGs, but also very strong noise reduction or sharpness filters, or saturation or color changes that were not real (except for black and white images or specific cases). I come from Venezuela, a country with very limited internet access where almost no one can see our work even with the highest compressions, but should we limit ourselves in an attempt to be inclusive?, This is just a image, imagine all the bandwidth that is spent on watching streaming videos, which is becoming more common every day. IMHO As a general rule, I always suggest uploading the best possible version of your work, because the quality in which you share it today will be how it’s remembered tomorrow. If someone prefers a smaller version, there are several size options available on the image description page, but that should not be your limitation when creating. Don’t set up barriers that others can easily overcome. Show your art in all its splendor and detail. You might think now that it’s enough to upload an optimized or more modest version, but I assure you, over time, you’ll regret it. Technology and quality standards advance quickly. The best way to contribute your work to humanity is by sharing it in the highest quality possible. In the end, it’s a matter of respecting your own creation and those who will enjoy it Wilfredor (talk) 22:53, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I had no access to the file lately and so I thought that I had done the 11/12 that I sometimes do but guess what I just checked and I didn't even do it on this picture! The original file size when exported out of Lightroom was only 13.7 MB (max setting). But after applying Denoise and Sharpen, the file size always increases in unecessary proportion, which then led the file to beeing 25.2 MB. After Denoise and Sharpen it always changes very slightly the overall color of the image making it a +1 greener in the green-violet spectrum so I always cancel with Lightroom making it a +1 more violet again and reexporting (in max setting) which then made this file of 16.11 MB that was finally not even compressed. Moral of the story : it's just Denoise and Sharpen that add unnecessary weight to the file and that get's deleted anyway when making any export at max setting with Lightroom or Photoshop -- Giles Laurent (talk) 19:12, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose with respect to the author who has presented at least a high quality QI, but I don't think 'considering it was taken from a cell phone' is the right attitude. Either it's good enough for FP or it's not, we shouldn't make allowances for the quality of equipment. I love the motif but I'm not convinced by the level of detail at this relatively small resolution (less than 6 megapixels) and I don't think the bottom crops in the corners are perfect.

Oppose Interesting to see a different perspective of a much-photographed building, but the lighting here isn't really working for me, sorry. I agree with Henrysz regarding the 'flat'ness. BigDom (talk) 02:39, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support Amazing and clearly FP to me. Very sharp on the building. Lovely light and colours. I think there is possibly a point in that this is the duller side of the castle to photograph and a lot of it is featureless wall. But still very good and well composed.

Info The Basilica of Sant'Apollinare in Classe, located in Ravenna, is truly a jewel surrounded by greenery. Internally, the mosaic of the apse also depicts Sant'Apollinare in a lush green lawn, surrounded by trees, flowers and animals, creating an atmosphere of peace and serenity. This scenario symbolizes heaven and eternal life, making the basilica a place of great beauty and spirituality. All by Terragio67 -- Terragio67 (talk) 22:19, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support I find both versions attractive, but I personally like this one better. The group of sculptures on the left adds to the overall appeal of the scene. -- Radomianin (talk) 06:29, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, you are right. I decided to upload a new version in order to preserve the full scenery. I will correlate the two images as other version. I also really like this image, but I decided to opt for the alternative image because the depiction being too broad becomes difficult to interpret and perhaps even distracting. Terragio67 (talk) 07:54, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support I find the original more balanced. Cmao20 (talk) 19:40, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative cropped version

Info I decided to crop the left part of the image above to give centrality and the right importance to the basilica immersed in the greenery of nature, trying in the same way to represent an atmosphere of peace and serenity, similar to the [internal mosaic of the apse] where the tone of the colors resemble each other. This scenario symbolizes paradise and eternal life, making the basilica a place of great beauty and spirituality.

Neutral Would be support if I'd not seen the original but it's just better. In the original we have the gentle sweep across the scene with the trees getting larger and drawing the eye towards the basilica, plus the carved animal figures all pointing in the same direction that give a sense of movement as we look across the frame. The alternative lacks any of this and feels comparatively static. Cmao20 (talk) 19:40, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support This photo deserves a little love. Yes, at the first glance the lateral view of the façade appears unusual and somewhat irritating. But (a) sometimes a little irritation is good, it shakes us out of our well-meaning lethargy and makes us look closer; (b) the lateral view reveals parts of the domes of the church which are shining in the sunlight; (c) this way we get a beautiful contrast between the shady, bluish piazza and the warm light on the domes. All in all I learn much about the location and the beauty of the church from this photo, much more than from the usual symmetric frontal view, and therefore the photo is IMHO successful and deserves the star. – Aristeas (talk) 10:03, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
