Candidari na mmàggini[edit]

Lìnii guida pi candidari na mmàggini[edit]

È mpurtanti lèggiri li lìnii guida prima di candidari na mmàggini.

A sèguitu è ripurtatu un riassuntu dê punti essinziali pi candidari e valutari li mmàggini candidati:

  • Risuluzzioni - Li fotugrafìi cu na risuluzzioni nfiriuri a 2 miliuna di pixel vennu giniralmenti rifiutati e livati a eccizzioni di mutivi cuntrari di mpurtanza particulari. Si nota ca li mmàggini cu risuluzzioni 1600 x 1200 hannu 1.92 Mpx, appena nfiriuri ô lìmiti mìnimu di 2Mpx.
Arricurdamu ca li mmàggini carricati nta Commons vennu taliati nun sulu nta schermi tradizziunali di PC ma sunnu utilizzati puru pi stampa e visualizzazzioni nta schermi a risuluzzioni àuta. Nun putemu certu privìdiri quali ticnoluggìi vennu utilizzati ntô futuru quinni è mpurtanti ca li mmàggini scigghiuti pâ vitrina hàianu na risuluzzioni quantu chiù àuta è pussìbbili.
  • Scanzioni - È cunzigghiàbbili siguiri la guida â scanzioni, ca pruponi suggirimenti pi l'ottinimentu di mmàggini ottimali
  • Focu - ovviamenti ogni oggettu significativu dâ mmàggini havi a èssiri difinutu bonu e a focu.
  • Primu pianu e sfunnu - Oggetti n primìssimu pianu o di sfunnu ponnu distràiri dâ vista di l'oggettu principali dâ mmàggini. È lu casu di cuntrullari si quarchi elimentu n primu pianu nun copri nuddu elimentu mpurtanti e ca lu sfunnu nun leva l'attinzioni e renni cunfusa la mmàggini (p'esempiu evitari ca c'è na luci forti ê spaddi di na facci)
  • Qualità ginirali - li mmàggini candidati hannu a èssiri di qualità tècnica àuta.
  • Li manipulazzioni diggitali nun hannu a èssiri effittuati pi ngannari, ma vannu usati sulu limitatamenti e cu cura pi currèggiri difetti fotugràfici. Li manipulazzioni cumunimenti accittati sunnu lu ritagghiu e la currizzioni di pruspittiva, fucali, culuri e espusizzioni. Manipulazzioni chiù estisi, comu pò èssiri la livata di n'elimentu di distrazzioni dô sfunnu, vannu chiaramenti discrivuti ntô testu di discrizzioni pi menzu dô template {{Retouched picture}}. Manipulazzioni nun discrivuti o discrivuti n manera nzufficienti nun pirmèttinu la candidatura â vitrina.
  • Valuri - lu nostru obbiettivu principali è elèggiri li mmàggini cô maiuri valuri rispettu a tutti li sò sìmili. Li mmàggini hannu a èssiri n quarchi manera spiciali, pirciò teni accura:
    • quasi tutti li scurati sunnu esteticamenti piacèvuli, nfatti tanti mmàggini sunnu sìmili a l'àutri,
    • li scatti nutturni sunnu gradèvuli ma giniralmenti li fotu scattati di jornu ammùstranu tanti chiù dittagghi,
    • nun tutti li fotu beddi hannu n rialtà un valuri ca nun è esclusivamenti pirsunali.

Pi quantu arriguarda l'aspettu tècnicu avemu comu paràmitri l'espusizzioni, la cumpusizzioni, lu cuntrollu dô muvimentu e la prufunnità di campu.

  • L'espusizzioni s'arrifirisci â cumminazzioni ntra tempu d'espusizzioni e diaframma. Sta cumminazzioni pirmetti giniralmenti d'aviri na curva di tonu ch'è n gradu di rapprisintari ùmmiri e luci cu un dittagghiu accittàbbili. Sta curva veni ditta latitùdini di posa. Na mmàggini pò èssiri ntâ banna vascia, media o àuta. Li fotucàmiri diggitali (e li sò fotu) hannu na latitùdini di posa chiù stritta dâ màchini a pillìcula. La mancanza di dittagghi ntê zoni d'ùmmira nun è nicissariamenti na carattirìstica nigativa. Nfatti chista pò èssiri parti di l'effettu addisiatu, mentri zoni ampii eccissivamenti suvraesposti ponnu distràiri la vista.
  • La cumpusizzioni s'arrifirisci â distribbuzzioni di l'elimenti ntâ mmàggini. La “Règula dê Terzi” è na lìnia guida bona pâ cumpusizzioni e rèdita tantu dê studi di disignu. Lu cuncettu principali cunzìdira la mmàggini divisa cu dui lìnii orizzuntali e dui virticali, ca divìdinu la mmàggini n tri parti. Giniralmenti si l'oggettu veni cintratu s'havi n'effettu picca ntirissanti, mentri si l'oggettu veni pusizziunatu nta unu dê punti di ntiressi, ovveru la ntirsizzioni dê quattru lìnii, s'otteni n'effettu dicisamenti megghiu. Li lìnii di l'orizzonti nfatti nun avìssiru a èssiri pusizziunati ntô centru, pirchì tagghiàssiru la fotu a mità; è nveci prifirìbbili scègghiri una dê lìnii orizzuntali. Cumplissivamenti abbisogna tènniri a criari na mmàggini dinàmica.
  • Lu cuntrollu dô muvimentu s'arrifirisci â manera ca veni rapprisintatu lu muvimentu ntâ mmàggini. Lu muvimentu pò èssiri bluccatu (siguitu dâ fotucàmira) oppuru pò èssiri lassatu scùrriri, tuttavìa l'oggettu principali dâ mmàggini havi a èssiri visìbbili. Nudda dê dui tècnichi è megghia di l'àutra, l'arrinisciuta bona addipenni esclusivamenti dô tipu d'effettu arricircatu. P'esempiu, fotugrafannu na vittura di cursa c'appari stàtica n rilazzioni ô sfunnu, ca nveci scurri ntô retru, s'otteni l'oggettu principali nta na cunnizzioni stàtica mentri lu sfunnu crea lu senzu di muvimentu. (sta tècnica è chiamata "panning"). D'àutra parti, fotugrafannu un jucaturi di basket n sàutu, bluccatu n rilazzioni a tuttu lu restu dô sfunnu, s'ottinissi un scattu bonu propiu pâ posa nun naturali.
  • La prufunnità di campu (PdC o DOF dô ngrisi depth of field) è la distanza davanti e darreri lu suggettu principali c'appari nìtida (a focu). Stu paràmitru veni scigghiutu a sicunna dê nicissità d'ogni mmàggini e pò parimenti migghiurari o mpijurari la qualità di na fotugrafìa. Giniralmenti veni utilizzata na PdC arriduciuta pi mèttiri ô centru di l'attinzioni lu suggettu principali, siparànnulu di tuttu lu restu dô sfunnu. Nveci veni utilizzata na PdC granni p'enfatizzari la prufunnità di na mmàggini. L'obbiettivi grannangulari n gèniri na PdC granni mentri li tiliobbiettivi nn'hannu una dicisamenti arriduciuta. N granni parti la PdC addipenni dâ grapitura dô diaframma: aumenta cô diminuiri dâ grapitura e viciversa.

Pi quantu arriguarda l'aspettuo gràficu pigghiamu nveci n cunzidirazzioni nitidizza, prufunnità, culuri, supirficii, pruspittiva, valanzamentu, prupurzioni, ecc.

  • La nitidizza s'arrifirisci a lìnii di cuntornu dô suggettu principali.
  • La prufunnità s'arrifirisci â qualità di l'aspettu tridiminziunali dô suggettu. Chistu s'otteni suprattuttu tràmiti na lluminazzioni latirali adiguata (comu chidda dâ prima matinata o dô tardu pumiriggiu) e nun esclusivamenti fruntali, ô fini d'evitari l'appiattimentu dô suggettu.
  • Lu culuri è n'elimentu assai mpurtanti e nun havi a èssiri nè troppu nè picca sàturu.
  • La supirficii s'arrifirisci â qualità dâ supirficii di l'oggetti fotugrafati.
  • La pruspittiva s'arrifirisci a l'angulazzioni dâ quali fu scattata la fotugrafìa. Chista crea na serii di ritti mmagginarii ca sèguinu li spìguli paralleli di l'oggetti e si ncòntranu ntôn puntu ca pò èssiri dintra o fora la mmàggini.
  • Lu valanzamentu s'arrifirisci â dispusizzioni di l'oggetti ntâ mmàggini e pò èssiri equilibbratu o pòniri pisu maiuri versu na dirizzioni.
  • La prupurzioni s'arrifirisci â rilazzioni ntra li diminzioni di l'oggetti ô nternu dâ mmàggini. Giniralmenti si tenni a rapprisintari oggetti cu rilazzioni arriduciuta, ma na tècnica bona è chidda di rapprisintari l'oggetti di diminzioni minuri n manera chiù estisa, cuntrariamenti a quantu è n rialtà. P'esempiu, un ciuri nicu ca veni rapprisintatu chê stissi diminzioni di na muntagna granni: sta tècnica veni chiamata nvirsioni di scala.
Ovviamenti, nun tutti li carattirìstichi hannu a èssiri nicissariamenti prisenti. Li mmàggini ponnu èssiri giudicati sia pi na sula carattirìstica ca pi diversi carattirìstichi, macari cuntimpuraniamenti.
  • Significatu simmòlicu o rilivanza particulari …Li guerri d'opinioni ponnu accuminzari!…. Va arricurdatu ca na pèssima fotugrafìa dûn suggettu difficilìssimu di fotugrafari è sicuramenti megghiu di na mmàggini ordinaria e tradizziunali (comu na scurata cumuni).
Li mmàggini ponnu èssiri scigghiuti dûn fotògrafu o di n'ossirvaturi macari pi mutivi culturali, tinennu pirò sempri cuntu dô cuntestu dô scattu e nun di chiddu di l'ossirvaturi. Na mmàggini noltri pò "parrari" ê pirsuni e aviri la capacità d'evucari emuzzioni, ca tuttavìa nun hannu a èssiri nicissariamenti piacèvuli.

P'ottimizzari le pussibbilità di successu dê candidaturi dê tò mmàggini è cunzigghiàbbili lèggire li lìnii guida cumpleti.

SHORT DESCRIPTION
Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: Unfortunately, at 1.6 megapixels, this image is below the required minimum resolution of 2 megapixels. Perhaps you can find a higher resolution with a freely available license, in which case we would appreciate a renewed nomination. Sorry for that. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 12:04, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply] Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.

  • COM:FOP Spain only mentions outdoor spaces ("in parks or on streets, squares or other public tracks and passes") and in any case the work would have to be permanently located there. Works like this that were only shown in a temporary exhibition in a museum don't seem to be covered. I think if this were sent to Deletion Requests it would go.

    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]
This new gallery was not an improvement for several of us. See Strange disconnected extra gallery.
kallerna takes great photographs of animals in their environment, like File:Vicugna vicugna Salar de Chalviri.jpg and File:Faroese sheep Sumba 1.jpg (both FP) and I think that if you choose to include the background, then this visible context should be attractive / aesthetic in some way. Otherwise the animal is just too small -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:42, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are comparing a domestic animal like a sheep that can extremely easily be approached + an animal that can also easily be approached by humans (vicuna) to a chamois, a wild animal that can't be approached like that. Both pictures you linked were taken at 21mm and 48mm at a close distance (=no bokeh), which is usually not something that can be done with this animal where you have to use a telephoto lense like the 600mm that I used (=inevitable bokeh). To photograph the animal I had to crawl on the snow and hide my body behind a natural bump on the ground with only my head, camera and hands appearing to the chamois, in order to not disturb him and not feel threatening to him or he probably would have fled. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 10:37, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There are a bunch of photos of Rupicapra rupicapra on Commons and Wikipedia. So it doesn't seem so difficult to approach them.
Backgrounds in focus don't necessary "steal attention from the main subject", at least not in the two examples shown above.
The problem with long focal lengths is they focus on small things. Everything around gets blurry. So the compromise "subject + around" is difficult. Since it quickly gives an insignifiant small subject lost in a big uninteresting space. I think that's what Kallerna says when writing the photo is mainly just "background". Regards -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:13, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you look the images from your link you will notice that they have been all taken from very far or with a telephoto lense, and/or went into a big crop, which proves my point that they are not as easily approachable as a domestic sheep or a vicuna. The group of chamois that I saw was a bit nervous and I have no doubt they would very likely have fled if I would be standing up and not lying on the ground with just my head visible. Moreover, for the sheep image you link I personally have my attention very much directed to the houses on the right because they are in clear focus and I personally don't like animal photography with human constructed elements but that's just my personal taste. Finally I don't think that the subject gets lost in a big uninteresting space for this photo because as said above 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. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 11:24, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Proportionally, it's a huge background with small animal. And the background itself is... white, with almost nothing apart from distracting blurry elements -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:40, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I know it's more rare to see such composition on FPC because here people usually only do mugshots of wild animals but there still are other images in the same situation as linked above : 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. I personally think that this composition brings value to the image because it allows to have a view of the environment and also because it tells a story that a narrow croped/frame picture would not be able to tell. Also I personally think that the background would be distracting if it was in focus and that the bokeh beautifully separates the subject from the background while still beeing possible to understand the context. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 12:05, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Nice light but 1) the feet are hidden, 2) the big blurry brown mass is distracting, and 3) the snowy branch is out of focus. Cluttered composition in my view -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:42, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for your review. I don't think the feet beeing hidden is a problem for ungulates and we have multiple FP in that situation (in addition to the image of the domesetic sheep you sent yourself above) : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, etc. Moreover, as explained above, to photograph the animal I had to crawl up a a natural bump in the snow to only have my head, hands and camera appearing to the animal so that it would not feel threatened by me. If I had stood up to have the chamois feet in the image, not only would the chamois have probably fled, but also the composition would have been extremely boring because you would not have the swiss alps in the background and just a boring high-angle shot with just ground visible in the background (click here for an illustration). As for the two trees you mention, they are relevant to the chamois environment. In my opinion the image would have been much more cluttered if they were in focus (which anyway can not be the case at 600mm) and they would also be very distracting in my opinion because they would steal the attention from the chamois. So I still think that having them blured not only creates a good classical foreground, midleground, background photography which gives a 3 dimensional sense to the image but also allow to keep the attention on the main subject. Also, as already said, the foreground tree creates a perfect leading line to the subject just as many others that are present in the image. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 11:09, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Would, would, would... if, if, if :-) So to be short, it's sometimes just a question of luck. The environment here was not so cooperative in my personal opinion, but your subjective taste is of course totally acceptable -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:23, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Seeing how the chamois were a bit nervous, I have almost no doubt they would have fled if I stood up (but we can never be 100% certain of course). Also, I have been a dozen times to this place and I have no doubt that I was extremely lucky to cumulate multiple favorable factors for this image : 1) there is only a few days/weeks every year that you can have snow there as it is not very high in altitude and also because winters are becoming warmer and warmer lately ; 2) chamois are not often seen there (most of the time it’s just ibexes that are seen) ; 3) the picture was taken with beautiful sunset colors which is rare and lucky for wildlife photography because usually the wild animals will not be placed in a good place or you will face challenging light conditions with for example contre-jour and for this shot I was lucky that the baby chamois was well placed to not have contre-jour, it was also lucky that the chamois was not in a shadow area that would not be benefiting from the sunset colors and it was also lucky that the chamois lifted its head in a way that it could be beautifully illuminated by the soft sunsets light ; 4) the combination of all of the previous elements is extremely lucky because it is way more likely to see the chamois without snow or with no beautiful sunset colors ; 5) it was very interesting to witness how the chamois adapted to this unusual situation for them (snow covering their food and having to go to places with less snow to dig to reach the grass) ; 6) having that small baby chamois far enough from the rest of the herd (especially form the mother) was extremely lucky and allowed to isolate the subject in this big snowy fairy tail environment ; 7) 98% of the time the chamois was just eating/digging the ground with head down and it was only during a very small few seconds that it had its head up like that to monitor me (even though I just had my head, hands and camera visible for him in order to not appear threatening)(but most of the time it was the rest of the herd that kept monitoring me) ; 8) most of the time with wildlife animal you are not able to place yourself to have the elements you want in the background. For this shot I was extremely lucky to be able to have the Swiss alps in the background. 9) the chamois was really perfectly placed with all these leading lines pointing to him, which is uncommon for wildlife photography. With all these elements I honestly personally think this image is of FP level. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 12:00, 30 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]

    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]
This new gallery was not an improvement for several of us. See Strange disconnected extra gallery.
kallerna takes great photographs of animals in their environment, like File:Vicugna vicugna Salar de Chalviri.jpg and File:Faroese sheep Sumba 1.jpg (both FP) and I think that if you choose to include the background, then this visible context should be attractive / aesthetic in some way. Otherwise the animal is just too small -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:42, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are comparing a domestic animal like a sheep that can extremely easily be approached + an animal that can also easily be approached by humans (vicuna) to a chamois, a wild animal that can't be approached like that. Both pictures you linked were taken at 21mm and 48mm at a close distance (=no bokeh), which is usually not something that can be done with this animal where you have to use a telephoto lense like the 600mm that I used (=inevitable bokeh). To photograph the animal I had to crawl on the snow and hide my body behind a natural bump on the ground with only my head, camera and hands appearing to the chamois, in order to not disturb him and not feel threatening to him or he probably would have fled. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 10:37, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There are a bunch of photos of Rupicapra rupicapra on Commons and Wikipedia. So it doesn't seem so difficult to approach them.
Backgrounds in focus don't necessary "steal attention from the main subject", at least not in the two examples shown above.
The problem with long focal lengths is they focus on small things. Everything around gets blurry. So the compromise "subject + around" is difficult. Since it quickly gives an insignifiant small subject lost in a big uninteresting space. I think that's what Kallerna says when writing the photo is mainly just "background". Regards -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:13, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you look the images from your link you will notice that they have been all taken from very far or with a telephoto lense, and/or went into a big crop, which proves my point that they are not as easily approachable as a domestic sheep or a vicuna. The group of chamois that I saw was a bit nervous and I have no doubt they would very likely have fled if I would be standing up and not lying on the ground with just my head visible. Moreover, for the sheep image you link I personally have my attention very much directed to the houses on the right because they are in clear focus and I personally don't like animal photography with human constructed elements but that's just my personal taste. Finally I don't think that the subject gets lost in a big uninteresting space for this photo because as said above 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. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 11:24, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Proportionally, it's a huge background with small animal. And the background itself is... white, with almost nothing apart from distracting blurry elements -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:40, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I know it's more rare to see such composition on FPC because here people usually only do mugshots of wild animals but there still are other images in the same situation as linked above : 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. I personally think that this composition brings value to the image because it allows to have a view of the environment and also because it tells a story that a narrow croped/frame picture would not be able to tell. Also I personally think that the background would be distracting if it was in focus and that the bokeh beautifully separates the subject from the background while still beeing possible to understand the context. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 12:05, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Nice light but 1) the feet are hidden, 2) the big blurry brown mass is distracting, and 3) the snowy branch is out of focus. Cluttered composition in my view -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:42, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for your review. I don't think the feet beeing hidden is a problem for ungulates and we have multiple FP in that situation (in addition to the image of the domesetic sheep you sent yourself above) : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, etc. Moreover, as explained above, to photograph the animal I had to crawl up a a natural bump in the snow to only have my head, hands and camera appearing to the animal so that it would not feel threatened by me. If I had stood up to have the chamois feet in the image, not only would the chamois have probably fled, but also the composition would have been extremely boring because you would not have the swiss alps in the background and just a boring high-angle shot with just ground visible in the background (click here for an illustration). As for the two trees you mention, they are relevant to the chamois environment. In my opinion the image would have been much more cluttered if they were in focus (which anyway can not be the case at 600mm) and they would also be very distracting in my opinion because they would steal the attention from the chamois. So I still think that having them blured not only creates a good classical foreground, midleground, background photography which gives a 3 dimensional sense to the image but also allow to keep the attention on the main subject. Also, as already said, the foreground tree creates a perfect leading line to the subject just as many others that are present in the image. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 11:09, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Would, would, would... if, if, if :-) So to be short, it's sometimes just a question of luck. The environment here was not so cooperative in my personal opinion, but your subjective taste is of course totally acceptable -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:23, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Seeing how the chamois were a bit nervous, I have almost no doubt they would have fled if I stood up (but we can never be 100% certain of course). Also, I have been a dozen times to this place and I have no doubt that I was extremely lucky to cumulate multiple favorable factors for this image : 1) there is only a few days/weeks every year that you can have snow there as it is not very high in altitude and also because winters are becoming warmer and warmer lately ; 2) chamois are not often seen there (most of the time it’s just ibexes that are seen) ; 3) the picture was taken with beautiful sunset colors which is rare and lucky for wildlife photography because usually the wild animals will not be placed in a good place or you will face challenging light conditions with for example contre-jour and for this shot I was lucky that the baby chamois was well placed to not have contre-jour, it was also lucky that the chamois was not in a shadow area that would not be benefiting from the sunset colors and it was also lucky that the chamois lifted its head in a way that it could be beautifully illuminated by the soft sunsets light ; 4) the combination of all of the previous elements is extremely lucky because it is way more likely to see the chamois without snow or with no beautiful sunset colors ; 5) it was very interesting to witness how the chamois adapted to this unusual situation for them (snow covering their food and having to go to places with less snow to dig to reach the grass) ; 6) having that small baby chamois far enough from the rest of the herd (especially form the mother) was extremely lucky and allowed to isolate the subject in this big snowy fairy tail environment ; 7) 98% of the time the chamois was just eating/digging the ground with head down and it was only during a very small few seconds that it had its head up like that to monitor me (even though I just had my head, hands and camera visible for him in order to not appear threatening)(but most of the time it was the rest of the herd that kept monitoring me) ; 8) most of the time with wildlife animal you are not able to place yourself to have the elements you want in the background. For this shot I was extremely lucky to be able to have the Swiss alps in the background. 9) the chamois was really perfectly placed with all these leading lines pointing to him, which is uncommon for wildlife photography. With all these elements I honestly personally think this image is of FP level. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 12:00, 30 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]
