File talk:Palais Garnier's grand salon, 12 February 2008.jpg

This is clearly the worst version of the four. The actual colors of the scene have been badly distorted. I *might* be able to understand the desire to get rid of the un-natural looking blue hues that appear in the original as was done by Rainer Zenz (although I wonder where the blue hues at those points came from, it is likely that they are totally part of the actual scene, maybe due to blue stained glass windows in anciliary rooms?), but to totally distort the colors of the scene, making it almost monochrome in yellow - is absolutely pointless, and COMPLETELY artificial. This image no longer accurately depicts the scene that would be observed by an actual visitor. 65.92.172.94 18:24, 1 June 2008 (UTC) (Sorry, I have a wikipedia account, but I'm not going to the hassle of creating a commons account, I don't see why that should be necessary.)

It was composed of multiple layers, because the original images suffered from a bad Color_balance (Weißabgleich). There is no blue glass inside this room, and the colors where just wrong. The author (photographer) of the original version voted for this image, because it looks better and more realistic, as his try. --Niabot 07:05, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
