[edit]

  • Nomination Degodehaus, house of the photographer Georg Wilhelm Degode, at the Suitbertus-Stiftsplatz in Düsseldorf-Kaiserswerth --Carschten 20:47, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Support Good quality. --Taxiarchos228 21:02, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Housefront in in the shades. suboptimal lightning. --NorbertNagel 23:25, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Support It's not an easy task to make a good image of shadowed house. Yet we see it can be done, so I think this image is QI with its warm and tender colours. But I'd like to warn Carschten to use HDR technology for this case, because of very deep shadows around the car.--PereslavlFoto 00:31, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Support --Mbdortmund 07:53, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

[edit]

  • Nomination Town hall of Billerbeck --Carschten 12:49, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Support Nice. A bit dark, but the weather is not always fine...--Jebulon 14:10, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Oppose And therefore it's not a QI IMO. QI criteria do not depend on the weather. --NorbertNagel 20:50, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Support I would put a little more contrast on the building... --Mbdortmund 16:51, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Neutral Image looks a bit gloomy, because the lighting conditions were not good. --Iifar 13:27, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Support Good wheather for a photo and no hard shadows. I have a little problem with the right top corner in the composition. But still a QI for me. --Elektroschreiber 15:09, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

File:Onymacris unguicularis MHNT.jpg

[edit]

  • Nomination Beetle fog drinker from Namibia --Archaeodontosaurus 17:37, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Oppose You either love pink backgrounds or have a problem with the whitle balance. --NorbertNagel 22:29, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Support This is matter of taste. The picture is technically good. Probably this kind of background is a choice and not a mistake...--Jebulon 01:55, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Support Per Jebulon --Andou 16:08, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Comment Onymacris unguicularis lives in the sand. A white balance problem affects an entire image, which is not the case.--Archaeodontosaurus 19:11, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Comment The (slightly) overexposed areas (white reflections from the bug and small foreground area) stay white of course, even with improper white balance. I loaded the image in Lightroom, played with the white balance and still believe, that the reddish background is due to the chosen white balance. --NorbertNagel 22:24, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Your judgment is wrong. The background is purely synthetic, the insect is fully clipped.--Archaeodontosaurus 06:46, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
  • So you painted the shadow of bug manually? --NorbertNagel 23:36, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
    • Yes he did !--Jebulon 11:37, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Please note, that the QI criteria state in round terms, that extensive image manipulations must be clearly described. Generation of an artifical background and painting of shadows is an extensive image manipulation IMO. --NorbertNagel 18:56, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Neutral (tending to oppose) the quality is very, very good, but the background colour is really ugly. Maybe it make sense, but it doens't look good... --Carschten 14:03, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Support. Technically good and background is OK for me. Artem Karimov 05:35, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the review. There wasn't so much light, i've already tried to improve the light on the face, this is the more I can do... --Vassil 14:17, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Light too unbalanced for QI IMO. --NorbertNagel 12:22, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
    • Light on the body and thighs is good, probably improvable on his face and his hand. Maybe I can try to improve it later. --Kadellar 14:28, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

  •  Comment Second nomination? Poor quality IMO, sorry. Blurry--Lmbuga 20:43, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
    • It's not the same image as previously. Not bad IMO, but could improve if a higher F number were chosen. Gidip 05:35, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
      • Yes, this image is better. I'm not sure if it can be QI, sorry.--Lmbuga 23:07, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Obvious trouble with sharpness due to f/2.8 used. The border parts of the image are strongly unsharp, and the DOF is too small for the subject. Yet the general theme and composition is very good, so we all ask you to repeat the shot with f/4, for example. Thank you very much, dear Luca!--PereslavlFoto 00:56, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

It is better than others think (perhaps I'm not right: It's not a bad image, the image is good IMO, but I dont like it)--Lmbuga 01:53, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
 Comment (es) El problema que veo en la foto no es que esté en la sombra. El problema es el tratamiento de la imagen por estar en la sombra. La imagen es brusca y -en mi opinión- predominan los azules. No me gusta, pero quizás sea cuestión de gustos, porque la imagen no es mala, es buena--Lmbuga 02:15, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Lmbuga, but I cannot do more against it. I have corrected it a little bit before posting, but I look down from above and this is due to the perspective. Last but not least, the picture is not wide enough to get it to straighten out even more. ;-) --Haeferl 14:06, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Post processing was usual, I would say, and surely without the need of the "retouched" template... Despite this picture is far from perfection, maybe some words in comment are a bit excessive, aren't they ?--Jebulon 16:54, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

  • Frankly speaking, the light wasn't worth shooting. And the roof is oversharped. Maybe you may add exposure and vibrance to this image, could you please try? This will not be an exact truth.

Standing a couple of feet to the right would have sorted out the slight distraction of the angled forest behind the head too. If you have Photoshop open the image in Camera Raw and add a few points of vibrancy and a touch of saturation just to liven it up. This sort of image should have strong, bold, vivid colours. Especially the greens. --Fred the Oyster 14:19, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

  •  Oppose Downsampled. See the file history--Lmbuga 21:51, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
I said it was downsampled, you don't have to look at the history for this. What's the problem with the downsampling? Gidip 22:14, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
Sorry, in Commons:Image guidelines, "downsampling" is a common problem of size--Lmbuga 11:31, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
What do you mean "a common problem"? There should be some rationale behind this. Whoever wrote this rule probably meant that people should not upload file versions which were compressed for use in powerpoint presentations, emails, etc. It is absurd to prohibit downsampling which improves the quality of the image in full resolution, if this resolution is detailed enough and well above 2 mpx. Otherwise, how do you explain this guideline from Wikipedia 1?

If, when viewed at 100% (actual pixels), an image appears slightly blurred and/or there are visible JPEG compression artifacts, it could benefit from downsampling. Images from modern digital cameras which produce very large (6MP or 10MP) files can look much better when slightly reduced in size.

Surely the idea of a good image file cannot be that much different in Commons and Wikipedia. Gidip 12:54, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

  •  Support - although I would prefer it if it was at 100%. Downsampling only causes loss of information, and does not improve an image in any way. However, as long as the resolution is adequate, I can't see downsampling as a sufficient problem for an image not to achieve QI status. --Claritas 11:54, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
  •  Comment Sorry, I can't say this in English: (es) (please, translation) Si la mejora de la imagen ha consistido unicamente o fundamentalmente en reducir el tamaño, voto en contra porque considero que se debe aprobar (la aprobaré yo) la imagen original.--Lmbuga 18:27, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

My experience tells the best «night photos» are made in the evening when available light helps to catch the whole scene. Shooting at night one has to make 20-seconds shutter and to correct exposition in retouching. Please see the examples of night photos: 1 or 2.

  •  Info I have put a note (is that the shine you mean?) imho it gives the image a more dinamic aspect with the light shining through the window on the left!?--Moroder 06:57, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
  • Yes, that's the bit I meant, though more specifically the pulpit. It's pretty certainly, but I'd like a second opinion. Mattbuck 18:52, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
  •  Comment 102 thousand pixels are saturated in the red channel out of 10 megapixels. That is 1% and we've promoted images that are much more overexposed. Unfortunately, that percentage rises to near 100% on the left side of the pulpit, the illuminated portions of the aisle and the window at the front. Detail in those areas is unrecoverable. The image is tilted slightly to the right, I think. The camera is just to the left of the centerline of the aisle. I would have preferred it to be either on the centerline or well displaced from the centerline so that its location seemed more deliberately chosen. That said, it is a lovely image. I think it would have benefitted from high dynamic range techniques, but I don't think that should be a requirement for QI. --Walter Siegmund (talk) 17:34, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
