- Oppose -- No idea of what a bubble ring was before I did a search on the web. I see nothing exceptional here justifying a promotion to FP, either in the subject, the aesthetics or the image quality. Close to FPX, really. Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:12, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

- Info created and uploaded by Gmaxwell - nominated by -- The High Fin Sperm Whale 03:29, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- Support I nominated this once before, but sadly, it had one vote to few and failed. -- The High Fin Sperm Whale 03:29, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose The ferromagnetic fluid itself could have better lightning. There is an area to the right, which appear completely black and with no discernable structure. The presence of the glass plate gives a better impression of what is actually going on than the existing FP from the same series of photos, but it is also distracting because it protrudes so much out in the foreground. Thus, I prefer the aforementioned illustration of the subject. --Slaunger (talk) 08:30, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- Comment I wanted to indicate the black area as an annotation, but somehow the annotation template code does not work. Maybe due to some renaming issues, because it has been nominated previously? --Slaunger (talk) 08:34, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose The subject is really interesting and I guess it's kind of an interesting effect to show the magnetic field going through the glass. But there's something about this that makes it hard to tell what that is, I might not have guessed that was liquid without some of the above comments and actually going to WP ("Where's the fluid? Is it invisible? That green thing?"), where I found this already featured image that I think is easier on someone looking at it. --IdLoveOne (talk) 02:11, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose Lacking illustrative value, per IdLoveOne.--Snaevar (talk) 03:30, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
- Support I cannot follow any of those comments above. It's highly illustrative, and the fact that you can't tell it's fluid without reading the description makes it even more interesting. The background could be a lot whiter though. -- H005 20:04, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

- No worries. Thank you for giving your opinion. The bottom looks maybe tight, because the picture is taken from a bridge (please look at the geotag) and his rail is would have been a bit disturbing in foreground , and there is nothing else to see but the wall of the Seine embankment--Jebulon (talk) 23:35, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

- Support Steven Walling 20:34, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
- Support One of the things I learned in Paris is that photographing Notre Dame is not an easy task. There is a myriad of obstacles in the way, or you have to get so close that you get horrible distortions. This is a pretty good image, high quality, composition is good, the lighting is very flat so it plays excellently on the subject. FP to me. --Murdockcrc (talk) 16:55, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose composition seems cut-off. integrating the Archbishop's Bridge or the Seine could be benficial. levels and sharpness should be reworked. please consider adding an annotation explaining the meaning of the locks, clarifying the last day of autumn (which can be different depending on you cultural background), linking to the articles of Notre Dame and the Archbishop's Bridge, using Template:Date (for people unaware of the french notion of december) and providing additional information on the equipment used by using Template:Photo Information. checking the image reveals repetitive patterns on the top - do i sense some kind of tinkering here? regards, PETER WEIS TALK 18:44, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Archbishop's Palace Bridge would be a disturbing foreground and out of the main subject.
- The Seine is here about ten meters below a vertical wall. Impossible to add it.
- Levels are sufficient to my eyes. Sharpness could maybe be better, indeed.
- Explaining the meaning of locks is off topic and disturbing. Furthermore, I don't know nothing about this touristic practice.
- The last day of autumn seems to be understandable enough. Autumn (or fall) is the season between summer and winter, and ends the 20 december, everywhere in the world. It is due to the equinox of the sun, but explanations are off topic here.
- The photo is well categorized enough in "Commons". Please feel free to use it in articles.
- There is no special french notion of december. December is a month, the last of the year, between november and january of the following year... Sunny in the southern hemisphere, it is cloudy, rainy and snowy in the northern one, generally speaking.
- I don't have further informations about the equipment used, please see metadata.
- I'm not sure I appreciate the word tinkering. As the frame was a bit tight above, because of my non-professional lens, I cloned some parts of the sky and added it at the top, to let the poor thing breathe. I used the GIMP. But please don't beat me, Master. Ich wusste nicht dass es verboten war.--Jebulon (talk) 13:18, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

- Comment: I have taken a look at the Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky category (author of the image) and all the images seem a bit oversaturated. Most probably due to the technique of taking the picture: Three-color process. If this is so the image can not be punished for the limitations of early photography.--Garrondo (talk) 17:26, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
- Question How can one tell whether it's oversaturated? The reference here should not be whether it looks natural today, but how paper copies of it looked back in 1909. -- H005 18:16, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
- Comment a histogram analysis can do the trick. a more convincing attempt to check for oversaturation is the digital colour composite as reference to what we can see here. regards, PETER WEIS TALK 10:09, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose with sorry. I was to support, but this one is very similar to the already featured you mentioned, same girl, the same plate with strawberries is just in other hands, three girls instead of one, different background. I think the second one is better, and I disagree with featuring two pictures of the same subject. But obviously, I have nothing to say against the quality of a 1909 color picture. Thanks for make me (us ?) discovering this photographer I didn't know. Beware that the Library of Congress has digitalized about 2000 colored plaques from this author, and all could be feature-able. Should we ? If yes, in my opinion, maybe should we chose first other subjects from this author ... BTW, I have added a french translation and a link to the french WP in the creator template, and no, it is not "autochrome", but very interesting technics too.--Jebulon (talk) 18:46, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
- Comment Regarding the subject of oversaturation. According to Libary of Congress photo description (this image comes from there), this image has been digitally colored from a glass negitive. As Garrando pointed out, saturation is a problem that can occour during coloring of pictures. Thus, I don´t belive that my voting on this photo has been too harsh, since it targets clearly the coloring process, but not the original.--Snaevar (talk) 02:38, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose this digital rendering has hardly anything to do with the impression of the original colour composite. mr frankhauser had a rather artistic attempt to render and adjust the digital versions of the glass plate negatives. some images benefit from this treatment but this certainly doesn't. you may notice the issue of colour saturation or the fixing of technical problems (aligning damaged glass plate negatives will result in green, red and yellow blemishes) - the house in the background has richer colours in the digital colour composite and got a sepia touch in this rendering. if looking closer on the head of this girl and comparing rendering and composite you might as well notice a effect similar to the outcome of CA. creating an own rendering of the b/w triple frames and performing a proper restoration is worth a try - alas very time consuming and not achievable for all 1902 pictures available for this method. regards, PETER WEIS TALK 10:09, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

- Oppose -- Nice wingtip feather silhouette action, but too much pure black in center focus area, = poor depth/separation of foreground/background wings, = subliminal frustration/dissatisfaction.Rep07 (talk) 21:52, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

It's possible it could be run through GIMP and have the perspective corrected, but it probably would ruin the looking-up effect. --IdLoveOne (talk) 23:59, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

- Oppose. No, sorry, the list of postprocessing operations reads like a self-satire: Imagenomic Noiseware twice, one stronger on the sky. For the next commands I masked the sky. - Smart sharpen - Freaky details masking - Nik Tonal Contrast - Vibrance increase on the whole image - A bit os saturation boost on the sky - Curves - Burn the top of the sky and the edges.

- Oppose Good technical quality and interesting subject. But I do not like the strong shadow and the composition. The composition is a compromise between either a strictly symmetric composition with the main tower in the corner centered and a rule of thirds composition with the two towers aligned with rules of thirds vertical lines. For me this in-between choise does not work and makes it appear uninteresting. I think a better composition would have been something along the lines indicated with my annotation. --Slaunger (talk) 22:05, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

- An valued image is a image that is best within a scope. To put this more simply, images are being judged in comparison with other images of similar objects. For example, this image would, presumably be compared with other railing photos on commons. This is different from Featured Pictures in that way, that Featured pictures are the best of commons, but not within a scope like Valued images are.--Snaevar (talk) 16:50, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

- I want to like this image, and I am a fan of most your work, technical illustrations, renderings, and Anime artwork. But I have several problems with this image. The rock texture on the left looks washed out and not very believable, the river has something going on with perspective, just at the waterfall it seems we look down on it at a steeper angle, the grass at the edge of the river looks smudged together (I'm missing some crisp edge here, the grass just blurrily blends into its own reflection). The gate looks unmotivated and just pasted into the landscape (connect it with some bushy grass around the posts maybe?). The waterfall itself lacks crispness. You may be going for a certain look here, but this has too much the feel of amateurish watercolor. --Dschwen (talk) 22:23, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Support Kawaii :) Masur (talk) 09:38, 31 December 2010 (UTC) ps. I can only criticize the hand holding "the staff (?)". I don't see the fingers very natural, while holding this item. Gives me a slight impression of misfit. Masur (talk) 14:10, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose Good work! But, as usual, I don't understand some things : Why manga woman rhymes with big tits? Why the landscape is also oversaturated (flickr kitsch) and why I cannot determine the educational value of this image? best regards --Citron (talk) 13:01, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Comment Let me comment on this. So "big tits" and this image in general is some kind of archetypal manga drawing. And, I need to admit that one either likes this style (I'm not saying - manga in general) or not. Similar to one of the previous Niabot's nomination, where the "tilted camera" POV was disapproved, but was typical for manga on the other hand. Masur (talk) 14:08, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Comment "Why manga woman rhymes with big tits?" Since every time i present an image, with a girl that is less developed, someone claims to see child pornography. "Why the landscape is also oversaturated[?]" It's a colorfull drawing. Oversaturation is a technical issue, that does not apply to images like this one, since it isn't. ^^ --Niabot (talk) 14:24, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- There's a huge difference between "less developed" and "completely oversized". There's nothing proportional about her breasts, one is spilling over her arm, even—so what's the real reason? Why not draw something a little more realistic and less like misogyny? Maedin\talk 17:34, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- Do we need to discuss the size of breasts? For self education you can follow this link (rating:safe).

- I'm myself an illustrator particulary influenced by the manga, IMO it is a style aimed primarily the young's. In fact, it's regrettable to mislead the young reader of Wikipedia with free and discrete pornography. I prefer your example because the choice is assumed. In this featured picture candidate, I find that the nudity isn't justified, as the landscape catches also our attention. When I talk about oversaturation, I talk in fact the choice of colors, IMO I find this little bit exaggerated for a sun so high in the sky. :) --Citron (talk) 12:27, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
- I would tend to say that the majority of the audience from this style is over 18, since most of the commercial works are rated at least 16. Series created for the younger audience are an exception in numbers, even if some of them are very popular. Meaning that the number of works intended for an older audience is larger, even if the number of published copies is lower. Regarding the oversaturation: Since the image is not technically oversaturated, you can always reduce the saturation without artifacts. If it would be to less saturated, you can't increase saturation without visible errors. --Niabot (talk) 13:29, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

- Neutral just not really in the mood to vote in favor of something that isn't actually something. (Slight weirdness aside) I'm not really sure we need a drawing of a girl with her nipples hanging out, or I'd be more in favor if it was cultural or historic. Maybe I'm not being fair to anime and maybe in time it will gain more respect like those of other art forms. Although I do like the idea of users being able to nominate artwork of their own that isn't photographic, computer rendered or totally EV-related - not that EV arguments can't be made for this - if only to check out users' art, creativity and such. =) --IdLoveOne (talk) 22:05, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

- Thanks for the info. I wasn´t quite sure how I should vote on a manga picture. Steven Walling´s vote made the most sense to me about what I should look for, but the reasoning behind the vote was based on Dschwen thoughts, as I agreed with him, and I still do in all aspects but one. I still think that the left bedrock could be sharper, but I don´t feel like that is reason enough to oppose the picture. I therefore change my vote to Neutral.--Snaevar (talk) 00:54, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

- Oppose Only because of the background, the colors match the tooth way too much, almost looks like glass or dirty ice. A black background would've been a more neutral background for this subject (a version with a scale would be good for educational purposes also). --IdLoveOne (talk) 21:00, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment ¾ of my images are on white or black background for scientific publications but, in Commons, we are in science popularization which is very different. This year two laboratories, one French and Gabonese asked me two photo series : with and without background, the second set for publication on Internet ... the world is changing. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 07:41, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment Could you apply a depth blur to the shadow? (or provide the raw image/cutout?) It looks odd that it isn't more blured further back. Somehow this is distracting and gives it really fake look. Some room for improvement. ;-) --Niabot (talk) 11:33, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

- Info Aleppo is more or less a "random bunch of houses", with several notable buildings, among which the citadel (from where the picture is taken), the Umayyad mosque and the souq (all annotated on the picture). I also tagged several other landmarks. I have made two panoramas of Aleppo, this one shows more interesting places.

- Comment The background is IMO just perfect: sunny forest and field (sidenotice: the day was the hottest ever measured in Finland) + typical rallyspectators = iconic setting for Rally Finland. The angle is the same in other photo, and only because of the angle the worn out road can be seen. —kallerna™ 10:55, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- The composition is certainly better in the nominated image than the suggested alternative, given a more practical crop and implementation of lead room/rule of thirds. –Juliancolton | Talk 11:49, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose per Royalbroil. Also, we allready have a FP from this event (File:Rally Finland 2010 - shakedown - Jari-Matti Latvala 3.jpg), so it´s only fair that any other FP nomination fill the same quality standards.--Snaevar (talk) 23:18, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

- Comment The bar? We have only 4 rally FP's (2 from the same event + File:Andreas Waldherr Lavanttal Rallye 2009 2.jpg and File:Peugeot 206 WRC.jpg, which is rather small). Do all car FP's have to be panningshots or of historic cars? —kallerna™ 13:44, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

What makes me put a neutral vote however, is the noise/stains on the statue and the statue platform, seen in full resolution.--Snaevar (talk) 20:14, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Support I kind of like the composition: How Jesus appears to be mightier than the sun or like he's going to embrace it, it seems like an artistic choice in step with the religion, which I personally don't mind. Would be better if the sky wasn't so boring, a cloud or two.. The lens might not have been right though, almost seems the sunlight is too strong some places, but not enough for me to oppose this. --IdLoveOne (talk) 05:24, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

NeutralSome noise spots in the sky, but all of them are fixable. Also, it´s appearant that this picture has gone through some restoration, since the original has a yellowish tone and is smaller, but this one is black and white and is larger. I would like information on that restoration.--Snaevar (talk) 22:24, 3 January 2011 (UTC)- It´s becoming quite obvious, that no one is going to fix those spots I mentioned erlier. Becouse of that, I change my vote to Oppose.--Snaevar (talk) 16:44, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose until a restoration has been performed. removing dust and blemishes should be worth investing some time. keeping the original canvas colour is reasonable since decolourisation destroys the original feeling to this image. cropping of the original tiff is not necessary for a future restoration. regards, PETER WEIS TALK 05:38, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

- Oppose Focus is a bit unfortunate. The subject is several flowers of the same type, and it would be better if the focus was on all of them. Also, the composition is tight at the bottom, as one of the flowers are cut out.--Snaevar (talk) 22:17, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose (formerly FPX) Image does not fall within the guidelines, the composition is confusing and the subject is not focused -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:42, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- the focus is on the blossom, ok it's a very narrow DOF, but this is needed to guide the viewer to the single blossom. Otherwise it would be very confusing with many blossoms. Would you prefer File:Poppy closeup of a single blossom.jpg? MatthiasKabel (talk) 06:47, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Worse, a blurry pedal is in front of the main subject. However, I think another shot here could produce a FP. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 17:19, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

- Oppose The sharpness is not very high and small details on the legs, wings, antenna and the underbelly of the thorax were seemingly destroyed by denoising (ISO 1000 is likely too high for a EOS 50D) and/or a JPEG compression beyond a wise measure. I would have expected a higher perceived sharpness on such a downscaled image. Grand-Duc (talk) 14:55, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment just to clarify, the image has not been downscaled --Ken Billington (talk) 19:17, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- Ah, then your licensing template ("If you would like to use, license, or purchase a high resolution copy of this image...") misleaded me on that point, I thought that your camera makes 15-MPx-images. What kind of lens did you use? (I'm not aware of a lot for Canon EF having the used 400mm focal length) :-) Grand-Duc (talk) 19:41, 7 January 2011 (UTC) And to explain my opposing vote somewhat: I guess that I'm spoiled by the excellent fokus stacked images of insects made by user:Richard Bartz, taking them as a benchmark.
- Comment It's true that the images of Richard Bartz are outstanding but they are "macro" images. This image of the dragonfly was taken with a 400mm telephoto lens from a distance of approx 6 metre. Since the image was not full frame it was cropped but not downscaled. i.e. the size of the dragonfly in pixels is exactly the same as it when was photographed.

- Info This is a panning shot of greyhound racing dog. Such a panning shot is much more difficult than a car panning shot as those dogs don't move as constant as a car. Those dogs don't just move horizontal (like a car) but also have very quick vertical movements - which is pretty annoying for a photographer :-) (Here you can have a look how such a race looks like.)

- Neutral The dog is IMO well captured, but the fence behind him is blurry.--Snaevar (talk) 17:44, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Perspective or the timing of the shot could be better as the picture is a bit misleading, becouse there are two guided busses in the background, but as the crashed bus blocks the gap between them from view, they seem to be only one.--Snaevar (talk) 21:16, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

- There are one green bus and two blue trolleybuses on this photo. All regular. Sidik iz PTU (talk) 08:22, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- There is a slight misunderstanding going on. Guided busses are led by markings or wires, as those two blue busses are. Let´s look at the front window of the green bus, and look at where the end of the first blue bus is. Now, let´s compare that to the gap between the green bus and the first blue bus on the picture on photobus.mrsk.ru that Sidink linked to erlier. You would see that this same gap is much wider. Anyway, what I am saying is that little gap on this photo is confusing, as it gives the impression (or makes it look like) that it´s one big blue bus, but not two as it should be.--Snaevar (talk) 16:36, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Also, the image is damaged at the top edge of the picture, and in a vertical line from the top to Mona Lisa´s head.--Snaevar (talk) 16:18, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

- Comment I agree on that the damage is on louvre´s pictures as well. I do think however that the best comparision is to the painting itself, so I am going to wait and see if anyone on FP has allready seen this painting.--Snaevar (talk) 12:28, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

- Support Haven't been to the Louvre, but this version looks pretty good, age and restorations considered I think.. --IdLoveOne (talk) 18:46, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose this version has no metadata and no proof of being a photo taken at the louvre. would be nice if someone can verify this. uploading over the already existing nomination is not very cricket - please consider uploading an alternative version. opposing/supporting votes for the first nomination must not automatically oppose/support this new version. a higher resolution version taken with a high-end camera under correct lighting circumstances would be very beneficial. the current featured picture of the mona lisa provides similar quality in terms of resolution and detail - a different whitebalance, colour correction (depending on your pov) does not qualify for another featured picture. regards, PETER WEIS TALK 10:39, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

As I wanted to show details of the sculptures and the stories telled, I was compeled to stay as close of the subject as possible, and a framing with more angels would be disturbing in my opinion. --Jebulon (talk) 10:40, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose I am sorry, slight tilt / distortion, loss of sharpness in the edges, the crop doesn't convince me, and it's lacking the wow I'd expect for an FP. -- H005 23:55, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- No need to be sorry. No worries. Thanks for reviewing and feedback anyway.--Jebulon (talk) 09:39, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

- Comment I know this page, also http://www.femorale.com.br/shellphotos/thumbpage.asp?family=HALIOTIDAE&cod=1003 and others. Most of the depicted shells there are cleaned (e.g. by ultrasound or mechanically), to remove the natural deposits of the shell (serpulids, chalk algae and so on). Please compare with other photos of living animals, e.g. http://www.google.de/imgres?imgurl=http://www.easterncapescubadiving.co.za/images/_large/IMG_0940.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.easterncapescubadiving.co.za/index.php%3Fpage_name%3Dmore%26list_id%3D53&usg=__Cg7mMO04QmajSXCovLPCd6y14SQ=&h=750&w=1000&sz=228&hl=de&start=16&zoom=1&um=1&itbs=1&tbnid=F4y3F0bR64cMzM:&tbnh=112&tbnw=149&prev=/images%3Fq%3DHaliotis%2Bmidae%26um%3D1%26hl%3Dde%26sa%3DN%26tbs%3Disch:1&ei=EjM0TZWkKo-Cswb_hqT_CQ, or http://wwf.panda.org/who_we_are/wwf_offices/south_africa/news/?93660/South-African-abalone-to-come-under-international-trade-controls and others.

The composition isn't featured imo, too. The crop at top and bottom seems a bit tight to me. At last the stitching is not perfect. There are some small stitching errors (yes, I sought with a magnifier ;-) ) and other stitching problems and I marked they who I find.

- Oppose OK please don't blame me for opposing everything... This one is nice, but common and usually, with similar view, you should feel like "tiny little thing looking up". Quite unusual choice of projection (although I should not criticize people on that given some of my past contributions over here ;) ), with horizontal lines straight and vertical lines curved. Did you rotate the source pictures, stitched them using cylindrical projection or alike, and them rotated back the result ? - Benh (talk) 16:04, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose -- Too heavy distortions in barrel of the vertical lines and numerous stitching errors due to paralax problems because no panoramic head was used. Also some lack of sharpness on the top as well as noise. In general a nice picture but needs a better technique. Sting (talk) 19:33, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

(I merged the two exposure stack of the bottom to get 20 images (10 top, 10 bottom) to blend in a panorama).Gonna upload a new version, I also changed the angle of cut, as it fits more logic to not cut the city in two part.

- Comment I see the error, apparently a stitching problem, in the car in the parking lot (lower right). The lighting is soft and there may be a bit of camera motion blur.

Cluttered andunfortunate composition as some of the items are cut off.--Snaevar (talk) 13:20, 18 January 2011 (UTC) - Comment There is Almost Always something cut out in photography, just look at the pictures on this page, cut off buildings, statues, landscapes, people, etc., etc.... photography is a partial view of reality. Clutter is almost always there in fleamarkets, and this is ordered clutter... anyway... --Tomascastelazo (talk) 13:43, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment We can agree on only one thing, that fleamarkets are cluttered. You know, that fleamarket table ends somewhere and I am only expecting you to have the items fetured, the "trinklets" of the fleamarket, uncut. Additionally when I look at a full resolution version of the image, the problem that Shizhao mentioned erlier about lack of focus is also there. That leaves me with the conseus that this picture is not good enough for FP.--Snaevar (talk) 15:01, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment Lack of focus? You can see the texture of the cloth! There may be some drop off in DOF, but there is focus in the important parts...

Legitimate image of a social phenomena, where one photo of a very public person is shown, freedom of panorama. If anything, I would be more concerned about the copyright on the penguin! Don´t you have anything better to do? --Tomascastelazo (talk) 21:59, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- You must read the Convenio de Berna (in Spanish) and Commons:Derivative works. Its a copyvio: Speedy deletion for me. More information in your user talk page--Miguel Bugallo 01:21, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment Miguel Bugallo, FPC is a place to place photographs or other visual media that anyone considers worthy of being featurable, regardless of what people at the individual level think. It is a process that has consensus and the community at the end decides as a group whether the image attains the status of FP or not. It is a democratic process, where education, relevancy, quality issues, etc., are considered. FPC is not a place to argue possible copyright violations, there is an appropiate place for that. By linking this vote to a deletion request based on your opinion you are harming the FPC process, introducing a bias, thus corrupting it. On top of this, you have canvassed for votes to support your argument for deletion, essentially engaging in meatpuppetry [[5]]. And since you have invited people to vote, I invite the community in general, not likely individuals who may vote my way, to visit the deletion request and vote according to the facts, keep or delete, and to inquire into the nature of your nomination. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 03:05, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry, I am not able to say this in English. (Spanish) No he invitado a nadie a votar (terjiversación de Tomascastelazo). He pedido opinión a un usuario (administrador) que me merece respeto. Lo he hecho porque en el caso de que no tuviese una opinión semejante a la mía, habría reconsiderado mi petición de que la imagen fuese borrada. Yo no he solicitado su voto ni he sugerido que votase, solamente le he pedido su opinión. Digo todo ésto con una única intención, la intención de dejar claro que ese usuario ha votado autónomamente, por propia decisión, y -lo más importante- su ética es irreprochable.--Miguel Bugallo 19:32, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
- Translation to English: I haven't invited anybody to vote (Tomascastelazo's biased opinion) I have asked opinion to a user (administrator) I respect. In the case she had an opposite opinion I would have reconsidered my request of deletion. Again, I haven't requested her vote nor suggested her to vote, I only asked for her opinion. My only intention is to clarify that this user (the admin) has voted of her own choice and, most importantly, her ethics in this instance, are irreproachable.--Miguel Bugallo 22:00, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose I am not a photographer so I can't comment on the technical aspects. As a reader, I do not see strong value in this being a FP. It does not teach me anything new, nor captivate my imagination (that compels me to read the article), nor make me grow an appreciation for something I already knew.

It is definitelly a much better photograph than a lot of the images that have passed as FP. It fits the screen nicely and even print applications can go up to half page with no problem. Most photographs never make it to that size anyway. I´d much rather have a good small photograph than a large mediocre one. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 05:22, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment What about the dark spot, on the top right of the image, and the fact that one of the limbs of the turtle are partially cut off at the bottom right. Just becouse this image is a sunset photo, and visually beutiful as such does not mean that it´s quality, IMO.--Snaevar (talk) 12:23, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
- Support Because it's beautiful, interesting and because I have a doubtfulness that getting such an image is an easy thing to do (kindly correct me if I'm wrong). EDIT: Thanks, High Fin. -- IdLoveOne (talk) 21:30, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

- I was referring to the direction of the look. Would you include the ground in the picture because the horse is looking at it, while putting the head of the main character in a corner because he's looking towards the horizon? I don't mind criticism, but honestly, suggesting that the look of the horse should be favoured over the look of the subject in the composition sounds a bit stupid. --Eusebius (talk) 07:43, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

- Question bad composition in what sense? bad lighting? it is the light of the sunset.. Ggia (talk) 07:36, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- Image cut in the middle = boring composition, and yes sunset, but still a bit dull. I think there are many other much better panoramas out there, but this is just my opinion. - Benh (talk) 07:51, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- Info I think the image has good atmosphere because of the light of the sunset.. and the cut in the middle is not so bad because it is balanced with the mountain and the city. Try to crop it in another way if you think that a better crop exists. The image is high quality, a lot of details.. and you see a lot of Badgirs giving high EV. And by the way in my opinion about this city, is that is one is one of the most beautiful cities I have visited in Iran. Ggia (talk) 08:09, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- The place is probably nice, and so may be the atmosphere. Like you, I always try to catch sunrises or sunsets when I can to get better moods. But still it's really a bit short on execution (by the way, I think the horizon isn't straight). I won't crop it more since there's no more room left for that. If possible, I would take it from higher point of view and frame it to add more room on the bottom side of the image. As for the EV issue, this isn't the right place (Have you tried on english Wiki ?). - Benh (talk) 12:20, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- Neutral I keep coming back to your photo. I agree to your arguments, the sunrise is nice and you captured a lot of badgirs, good quality. You also tried to capture Yazd´s symbiosys of city, desert and mountains. However, the pattern of streets and cluttered buildings does not work very well for the imagages composition. Then there is the sky cutting the image in two, which is further handicapping the composition, and the mountains are barely visible because of the haze. I love Yazd (did you try Kashan? If you still can, go there as well) and I really like your picture, but Im afraid aesthetically, it does not quite work well enough as a whole to be among the best panos on commons. --Nikopol (talk) 11:14, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

- Comment Actually, a seashell very conditionally has "top" and "bottom". A gastropoda mollusk creeps on surfaces with very different angles. This picture shows dorsal and ventral view, and any angle of view for both part of picture will be correct.
- Yes, there is a historical tradition only (by Ernst Haeckel and other wildlife illustrators) to draw apex at top, however it isn't dogma. At this historical illustration author Ernst Haeckel breaks self tradition (see shells at left and at right).
- Also exist other historical tradition by other illustrators (however not so popular), to draw apex at bottom. For example: this picture has been made 1742. Personally I like such variant. However any angle of view is correct for a seashell, for example this and this with ~30° rotation. --George Chernilevsky talk 14:46, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

- Info all by Eusebius --Eusebius (talk) 10:03, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose It's a very nice and neat picture and technically correct, but as a FP I'd rather prefer a more general view (with slightly better DOF) and no kitchen (? :) ) reflections. Masur (talk) 16:38, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- I definitely understand. Incidentally, if someone has advice on how to better control these reflexions... Shooting varnished brass objects is a nightmare. --Eusebius (talk) 16:52, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- When we were shooting some lab. glassware (images soon to be uploaded - plenty of them) we used one of these "shadowless tables" (not sure whether the name is right, but hope you got an idea) with additional "screens" on sides (black carton board) to prevent reflections of the room in the object and to nicely enhance contours visibility. Masur (talk) 19:09, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- I have some ideas for background screens, but they need space... I'm not sure what a shadowless table is, but if it is based on light polarization, it cannot help for metal reflection, if I remember correctly my optic lectures. Thank you anyway. --Eusebius (talk) 20:08, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

I'd be glad if you would visit me to check the colours of the original and to compare them with the photo. --Llez (talk) 09:06, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- I mean that the color is poor (flash light?) and the highlights are blown. Try a different way of lighting your subject. I'm sure you can do better. (examples: [7], [8], [9], and [10]). W.S. 14:34, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- Please review voting instructions: Unhelpful reasons for opposing include: "You can do better" and other criticisms of the author/nominator rather than the image. Walter Siegmund (talk) 18:06, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

- You can make your point without attacking other users. If you cannot or will not follow explicit instructions for reviewing the images nominated here, please do not participate. Your comments help to set the tone for this discussion. Please try to set a positive example. Walter Siegmund (talk) 19:16, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
- Don't attack me, Walter, all my opposes are valid, sound and not ad hominem. Do you really want to oppress all opposition? W.S. 06:53, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
- You used the words, "I'm sure you can do better" above. I reminded you that COM:FPC voting instructions explicitly say "Unhelpful reasons for opposing include: 'You can do better' and other criticisms of the author/nominator rather than the image". Then you repeated your criticism of the author/nominator using different words. You may oppose an image and the criteria include many valid reasons for doing so. But, "I'm sure you can do better" is not one. Walter Siegmund (talk) 06:17, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment Thank you all for this interesting discussion, but lets come back to the colours. I said, that the shell is translucent. Most of the pictures cited above are made with white background or at least with a bright background. No wonder, if the shell then seems to be pure white or creamy. I photographed my shell with a black background, and this black is shining through the thin, translucent parts of the shell. So one can demonstrate, how thin the shell is in reality. Only thickened, not translucent parts of the shell are pure white. I really tried to do my best, to show the fragility of the shell.
--Llez (talk) 10:08, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
- Even that being as it is (I'd call it an unfortunate choice of background in this case), it doesn't account for the blown highlights. And considering the you know you can do better-remark: consider it as a compliment for your previous FP's. It was of course not an attack as Mr. Siegmund would love to see it.

OpposeIMO the eiffel tower looks flat, due to frontal perspective of the image. I would support a picture taken from an 45 degree angle, though.--Snaevar (talk) 16:00, 21 January 2011 (UTC)- Changing my vote to Support Good level of detail... On a slightly different remark, I can´t see why this picture is being judged as an Valued Picture candidate.--Snaevar (talk) 14:41, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose Yes my vote is biased, and yes, the resolution is higher than the current FP's (names of scientists can be read much more easily, but they were also repainted) but I still prefer the colors from my picture, and there's that unfortunate big net on the left part. I wouldn't have supported my own pic anyways as this is a very trivial shot. - Benh (talk) 20:25, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose: Nice technically, which makes it a deserving Quality Image, but it is not outstanding enough to be a Featured Picture in my opinion. TFCforever (talk) 04:29, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

- Please do look at the full-view, I think the quality and depth of field is quite good. Also, I can make a white-balanced alternative easily, but I think the lighting is a little less perfect then. -- IdLoveOne (talk) 03:58, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose Multible issues. The fabric in the top left corner is distracting. Given the white spots, pale blue color, cracks on some of those dried lemons and the insides are not so jummy, I would expect that those are past their last expiration date.--Snaevar (talk) 13:29, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
- They're dried, spices essentially - nonperishable because they've been preserved. Also I don't see how the eye could be drawn to that fabric when there's a hundred lemons in front of you. -- IdLoveOne (talk) 18:54, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

This gentleman is a well-known politician; this picture, according to the description, was taken on the occasion of a more or less public event (a speech at a congres center, with probably several hundred people attending).
