概要[edit]

推薦にあたって[edit]

推薦者のためのガイドライン[edit]

まずはじめに、『秀逸な画像ガイドライン』、『画像のガイドライン』をお読みください。

ここでは推薦画像の評価を受ける・する際の必要事項を要約して紹介します。

  • 解像度 - 200万ピクセル以下の写真画像は、特別な理由が無い限り却下されます。1,600 x 1,200 ピクセル(1.92メガピクセル)は200万ピクセルには届いていない事にご注意ください。
コモンズに置かれた画像は一般的なPCモニターのみで閲覧されるとは限らず、プリントアウトや高解像度モニターで表示される可能性もあります。将来的にもどのような機器が用いられるようになるかは誰にも予想出来ないので、推薦画像が可能な限り高い解像度を保っている事は重要な事なのです。
  • スキャン画像 - 公式な方針ではありませんが、Help:スキャニングページで各種様々な画像を準備するための有用なアドバイスが提供されています。
  • フォーカス - 通常、重要な被写体は全て焦点が合っていなければいけません。
  • 前景と背景 - 前景や背景に主題ではない物が写り込むと、それは“余計なもの”になり得ます。前景にある物が主題の重要な部分を隠していないか、背景にあるものが構図を損ねていないか(例:後ろの街灯が人物の頭の上から生えているように見える、等)を確認しましょう。
  • 全体品質 - 推薦される画像には高い技術品質が要求されます。
  • デジタル補正 - 見る人を欺いてはいけません。写真画像のキズ・ホコリ等を修正する、良い編集、故意に人を騙す目的でない限り、デジタル補正は一般的に歓迎されます。例を挙げると、色合い/露出補正、シャープ/ボカシ、遠近感歪み補正、トリミング(切り取り)等がこれにあたります。背景に写り込んだ余計な物を取り除く等のさらに大がかりな修正は、{{Retouched picture}}テンプレートを画像ページへ貼付け、修正した旨を記述しましょう。記述漏れや記述ミスがある等、主題を不正確に見せる編集は決して受け入れられません。
  • 価値 - 『全ての画像の中でも特に際立ち、最も価値のある画像』が我々の大きな目標です。秀逸な画像はそれぞれの分野の中でも別格でなけらばならず、故に次の点に留意して下さい。
    • たいていの夕日は美しく見えますが、そういう画像のほとんどは他の夕日画像と大差ありません。
    • 夜景は美しいですが、普通は日中に撮影された写真の方がより詳細を見せてくれます。
    • 必ずしも『美しさに価値がある』わけではありません。

技術的側面では露出『構図』『動感表現』被写界深度等を見ます。

  • 露出とはシャッタースピードと絞りとの組み合わせの事を言い、適切なトーンカーブが見せる陰影〜ハイライトが有用なディティールを描写します。これをラティチュード(露光寛容度)と言い、このラティチュードの陰影〜ハイライトの領域内において、画像を暗め、中庸、明るめに作る事が出来ますが、デジタルカメラ及びデジタル画像はこのラティチュードの範囲がフィルムに比べて狭いです。ディティールの欠損した影部分は必ずしも「悪い」わけではなく、実際にその様な効果が望ましい場合(部分)もあります。ただしディティールの欠損したハイライト部分が大きく面積を占めるのは良くありません。
  • 構図とは画像画面内での各要素の配置の事を言います。“三分割法”は構図作成には良い方法で、美術学校でも教えられています。まず、画像に水平線と垂直線をそれぞれ2本引き、画像を水平・垂直方向とも3分割します。主題を中央に配置するとたいていは画面に面白味を欠き、水平線と垂直線が交差する4つの交点の内どれか1つに主題を置いた方が良い画面になるでしょう。地平線は画面を半分に切ってしまうので、通常は地平線を中央に配置するべきではありません。上寄り、若しくは下寄りに配置させる方が良いでしょう。主たる考え方としては空間を上手に使い、躍動感・臨場感のある画面を作るという事です。
  • 動感表現 - ここでは被写体の「動き」を表現する手法を紹介します。動きのある被写体は止まって見えるか、もしくはブレて写りますが、これらはどちらの方が良いとは必ずしも言えず、どのような表現意図を持っているかによります。「動感」は主題と共に写り込んでいる他の背景等との関係で表現されます。例えばレーシングカーの撮影。車と背景とが共に止まって見えては、見る側にスピード感は伝わってきません。 なので撮影手法によって車は画面内で止まっているように写り、かつ背景をブレさせることでスピード感が表現され、このような手法を「パンニング(流し撮り)」と呼びます。一方で、背景と共に止まって撮られた高く跳躍したバスケットボール選手は、これは決定的瞬間の「不自然」なポーズになり、これも良い写真になり得るでしょう。
  • 被写界深度(DOF)とは主題の前側から後ろ側までのフォーカスエリアの事を言います。被写界深度は全ての画像で明解な意図のもと選択され、深い、または浅い被写界深度は、画像に品質を与えもし、また損なわせもします。浅い被写界深度は、主題を他の被写体から切り離し、見せたい被写体に注目を集めることが出来ます。深い被写界深度は空間を強調させる事が出来ます。広角(短焦点)レンズは深い被写界深度、逆に望遠(長焦点)レンズは浅い被写界深度が得られる傾向があります。また絞りを絞り込むと被写界深度は深く、解放すると浅い被写界深度が得られます。

グラフィック要素では形状、ボリューム、色、テクスチャー、遠近感、バランス、比率 等を見ます。

  • 形状とは主題に対する輪郭線、及び形状を言います。
  • ボリュームとは主題の立体感に対する品質を言います。立体感は横からのライティングで表現出来、反対に正面からのライティングは被写体を平坦に見せる傾向があり、不向きとされています。自然光の中でベストな光を得るには、早朝か、もしくは夕方の日の光が良いでしょう。
  • は大変重要で、強すぎる色合いは好ましくありません。
  • テクスチャーとは主題の表面材質の描写性に於ける品質を言います。表面材質は横からのライティングにより強調され、手に触れて伝わるかのような質感を与えます。
  • 遠近感とは、画像の画面内若しくは外にある消失点で繋がる放射状の直線、これに沿った形で現れる「角度」により表現されます。
  • バランスでは画像の画面内での重心が左右均衡か、若しくは片方に寄る等適切な配置が成されているかを見ます。
  • 比率では画面の大きさに対する被写体の大きさを見ます。一般的に、小さな被写体は小さく写真に表現してしまう傾向にありますが、相応しい撮影手法により小さな被写体を実寸とは逆に大きく見せる事が可能です。例えば、小さな花を大きな山よりも大きく見る事が出来ます。この手法を指して「倒置法」と呼びます。
主題の全ての要素を画像に盛込む必要はありません。多くの写真はそれぞれの個性で評価出来ます。すなわち、画像の色やテクスチャー等々により判断出来ます。
  • 『象徴性か妥当性か』 ー 『秀逸な画像』ではしばしばこのようなテーマで意見論争が起こる傾向にあります。技術的・品質的には出来の悪い写真でも極めて撮影困難な被写体を捉えた写真は、凡庸な被写体を写した品質的に良い写真よりも評価されます。もちろん撮影困難な被写体を写し、かつ品質も良い写真は極めて価値の高い写真と言えます。
画像は時に撮影者と評価者、若しくはどちらか片方の文化的な偏りが見られます。画像の意図は画像そのものの文化的背景により評価されるべきであり、評価者の文化的背景に依存してはいけません。イメージは人に語りかけ、そして慈しみ、怒り、拒絶、幸せ、悲しみ等の感情を喚起させる力を持っています。良い写真から与えられる心地よさには限りがありません。


画像のガイドラインを事前に読めば、あなたの推薦が成就する可能性を最大限に引き伸ばしてくれるでしょう。

I've placed a tentative {{FPD}}, though anyone is free to take this nomination over. --SHB2000 (talk) 07:09, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, you shouldn't create a new nomination until one of your two active is done, not just because someone might find it and add it (like what happened here) but mostly because having a nom waiting in the pipeline will shorten the time for your nom and that is rigging the game if it's done on purpose. The voting time starts when you create a nom, not when you add it to the FPC list, and by creating it in advance you are in effect shaving off time on this voting platform until it closes. --Cart (talk) 08:57, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nomination denied. Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines because only two active nominations per user are allowed.

  • Charlesjsharp, the moon is one of those things that is very constant at various locations, but with the same camera settings. The size here is ok for 70 mm lens and the moon phase is right, but the exposure time of 10/1 sec will give you a brighter moon. This moon looks like it's been taken with a shorter exposure time, so that's probably a partial HDR. Not a "terrible" photoshopping in my view, but people can be sensitive to such things. Compare with a photo of a full moon with similar settings that I know is just one shot. --Cart (talk) 13:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Thank you for your review. I guess you are talking of one of the two trees? They are the reason the chamois were there: close to them the snow is less deep and they can dig the snow with their hooves to eat the grass. The trees are thus part of the habitats of these chamois, which is one of the reasons why the gallery Animals in their habitat was chosen for this picture. Also, I actually personally think that they give a nice touch to the image with their soft colors illuminated by the sunset. Also both trees point to the subject and the chamois clearly stands out with its dark color in this snowy background with soft sunset illuminated colors. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 17:38, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support From the point of view of the chosen gallery, I think the composition is appropriate. In my opinion, the blurred elements in the foreground and background can be considered a compositional style. -- Radomianin (talk) 19:51, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Thank you for your review. I still personally think that the background tree is a nice echo of the foreground tree, giving the viewer a sense of what the foreground tree actually looks like while also beeing relevant to the chamois' environment. Giles Laurent (talk) 13:08, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It's a fair point, but the tree takes the salience. SHB2000 (talk) 22:09, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I still think that the chamois stands out way more than the background tree for multiple reasons : 1) the chamois is the clear subject in the middle of the frame ; 2) the chamois is wearing it's black winter coat which makes it stand out compared to the light-colored snow ; 3) the bokeh is cleary separating the subject from the background ; 4) the foreground tree creates perfect leading lines that point directly at the center of the frame where the subject is placed ; 5) the snow horizon on the background on the left side creates another leading line to the center of the frame where the subject is placed ; 6) the snow on the middleground of the image that goes from the bottom right of the picture to the center also creates another leading line pointing to the subject ; 7) finally, even the background tree is pointing right at the subject. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 22:47, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Thank you for your review. The gallery "animals in their habitats" was especially created to feature pictures where a step back was taken and where a wider view is presented. Per creator of this gallery : "It is so great to see the animals as part of photos of their habitat. So please, when you super-record the critters, do also take a step back and compose a few great photos where we can see a bit more of the places where they live". This image is exactly that, it allows to have a wider view that changes from the usual "mugshots" that we often see on animals here. The wider view on this shot was intended for various reasons. It emphasizes the small size of the subject and the fact that it is still a small baby on a big snow covered environment with only a few trees. The wider look also allows to see two trees that are relevant to the environment of the chamois in winter because close to them there is less snow on the ground and the chamois can more easily dig the snow with their hooves to eat the grass. Finally the wider shots also allows to showcase the swiss alps in the background beautifully illuminated by sunset light to complete the scene. If the image would have been cropped/framed to only include the chamois, it would have in my opinion a lot less educational value because we would be missing all these interesting elements about it's habitat. Moreover the wider shots allows to showcase the beautiful sunset colors which is a rare thing to capture with wildlife photography. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 09:55, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If so, the habitat should not be OOF. —kallerna (talk) 13:25, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The chamois is still the main subject of the image so it's normal to have the focus on him. The bokeh is destined to bring the viewer's attention to the main subject while still allowing to have an idea of the surroundings, without needing to see them in details (or they would steal attention from the main subject). We have several FP on the gallery "Animals in their habitat" that also have bokeh background : 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Moreover, except if background is extremely close to the subject (or if the subject is far away), you will always have bokeh at 600mm. The use of a 600mm zoom was intentional, as it creates a compression effect that allows the background elements to look closer than they really are. Here is an exemple with a photo (from the internet) of the Château de Chillon with a probably like 25-35mm lense. The red square illustrates where the Dents du Midi are. Here is now a photo of the Château de Chillon taken from more far away with a 155mm zoom in order to have the Dents du Midi mountain appearing in big behind the castle to make them look like they are closer than they really are. This same technique was used in this shot in order to have the Swiss Alps appearing in the background (else they would be extremely small in the background because they are 40-60km further away). -- Giles Laurent (talk) 14:01, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks for the constructive review, Красный. I agree that without the small plant, it would be a classical composition with conformity. Keeping it as an intrusive object was intentional because it matches the green paint residue from the previous coat as well as the other tiny plants on the left. It is cropped because the wall actually ends at the right edge of the image. Also, because of the plant, the asphalted section fits as a contrast. But you can find an edited version without the plant for comparison under the SwissTransfer link. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 17:55, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Well, you shouldn't create a new nomination until one of your two active is done, not just because someone might find it and add it (like what happened here) but mostly because having a nom waiting in the pipeline will shorten the time for your nom and that is rigging the game if it's done on purpose. The voting time starts when you create a nom, not when you add it to the FPC list, and by creating it in advance you are in effect shaving off time on this voting platform until it closes. --Cart (talk) 08:57, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Charlesjsharp, the moon is one of those things that is very constant at various locations, but with the same camera settings. The size here is ok for 70 mm lens and the moon phase is right, but the exposure time of 10/1 sec will give you a brighter moon. This moon looks like it's been taken with a shorter exposure time, so that's probably a partial HDR. Not a "terrible" photoshopping in my view, but people can be sensitive to such things. Compare with a photo of a full moon with similar settings that I know is just one shot. --Cart (talk) 13:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Thank you for your review. I guess you are talking of one of the two trees? They are the reason the chamois were there: close to them the snow is less deep and they can dig the snow with their hooves to eat the grass. The trees are thus part of the habitats of these chamois, which is one of the reasons why the gallery Animals in their habitat was chosen for this picture. Also, I actually personally think that they give a nice touch to the image with their soft colors illuminated by the sunset. Also both trees point to the subject and the chamois clearly stands out with its dark color in this snowy background with soft sunset illuminated colors. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 17:38, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Thank you for your review. I still personally think that the background tree is a nice echo of the foreground tree, giving the viewer a sense of what the foreground tree actually looks like while also beeing relevant to the chamois' environment. Giles Laurent (talk) 13:08, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It's a fair point, but the tree takes the salience. SHB2000 (talk) 22:09, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I still think that the chamois stands out way more than the background tree for multiple reasons : 1) the chamois is the clear subject in the middle of the frame ; 2) the chamois is wearing it's black winter coat which makes it stand out compared to the light-colored snow ; 3) the bokeh is cleary separating the subject from the background ; 4) the foreground tree creates perfect leading lines that point directly at the center of the frame where the subject is placed ; 5) the snow horizon on the background on the left side creates another leading line to the center of the frame where the subject is placed ; 6) the snow on the middleground of the image that goes from the bottom right of the picture to the center also creates another leading line pointing to the subject ; 7) finally, even the background tree is pointing right at the subject. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 22:47, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Thank you for your review. The gallery "animals in their habitats" was especially created to feature pictures where a step back was taken and where a wider view is presented. Per creator of this gallery : "It is so great to see the animals as part of photos of their habitat. So please, when you super-record the critters, do also take a step back and compose a few great photos where we can see a bit more of the places where they live". This image is exactly that, it allows to have a wider view that changes from the usual "mugshots" that we often see on animals here. The wider view on this shot was intended for various reasons. It emphasizes the small size of the subject and the fact that it is still a small baby on a big snow covered environment with only a few trees. The wider look also allows to see two trees that are relevant to the environment of the chamois in winter because close to them there is less snow on the ground and the chamois can more easily dig the snow with their hooves to eat the grass. Finally the wider shots also allows to showcase the swiss alps in the background beautifully illuminated by sunset light to complete the scene. If the image would have been cropped/framed to only include the chamois, it would have in my opinion a lot less educational value because we would be missing all these interesting elements about it's habitat. Moreover the wider shots allows to showcase the beautiful sunset colors which is a rare thing to capture with wildlife photography. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 09:55, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If so, the habitat should not be OOF. —kallerna (talk) 13:25, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The chamois is still the main subject of the image so it's normal to have the focus on him. The bokeh is destined to bring the viewer's attention to the main subject while still allowing to have an idea of the surroundings, without needing to see them in details (or they would steal attention from the main subject). We have several FP on the gallery "Animals in their habitat" that also have bokeh background : 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Moreover, except if background is extremely close to the subject (or if the subject is far away), you will always have bokeh at 600mm. The use of a 600mm zoom was intentional, as it creates a compression effect that allows the background elements to look closer than they really are. Here is an exemple with a photo (from the internet) of the Château de Chillon with a probably like 25-35mm lense. The red square illustrates where the Dents du Midi are. Here is now a photo of the Château de Chillon taken from more far away with a 155mm zoom in order to have the Dents du Midi mountain appearing in big behind the castle to make them look like they are closer than they really are. This same technique was used in this shot in order to have the Swiss Alps appearing in the background (else they would be extremely small in the background because they are 40-60km further away). -- Giles Laurent (talk) 14:01, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But you can find an edited version without the plant for comparison under the SwissTransfer link. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 17:55, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your advice, the shooting conditions were particularly difficult, this statue of sleeping Buddha is located on the uppermost terrace. I couldn't figure out how to fix this problem. If the image is not OK for FP, I will quickly remove it from the proposals made Best regards. --Pierre André (talk) 15:51, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment The new image is not much improvement, it has blurs where the previous was sharp. Eg the top edges of the petals. The focus stacking needs rework. The tool I use, Zerene Stacker, allows one to copy a part of a specific image into the output. I find this useful for sharpening blurry areas that the automatic stacking cannot fix. --Tagooty (talk) 03:24, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's probably one of a series of photos from the fueling mission, and explanation to why the planes were so close to each other and lazy file naming. It could be renamed "Airman in F-15E takes photo of KC-10" ;-), given what is going on in the photo, or "F-15E during fueling stage from KC-10". --Cart (talk) 10:09, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks for the notification, but the top of the mountain now shows weird artifacts and the generated clouds are of much lower quality than those really photographed. There are also colorful outlines around. Thus my negative vote remains. Sorry -- Basile Morin (talk) 09:49, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Commons is just an archive for photos; very few photos are "used" here. The photos kept here are used in Wikipedias all over the world, as well as all the Wiki sister projects, schools, museums, organisations, and thousands of others that get their photos from Commons. Commons is like a "stock photo site" where images can be used for free if you credit the photographer. --Cart (talk) 19:25, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Clear distorsions of the face in the corner, due to the wide angle (24 mm) lens. Crop is too tight at the top. The guy seems to lower his head to fit it into the frame :-) The arm and hand in the foreground suffer from motion blur. Probably the shutter speed was not fast enough. The background is not very sharp, and the light is dull around the man with red jumper. To finish, there are big dust spots in the center, one between the worker and the street lamp, another one at the top, and at the right too -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:41, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
