•  Comment As I just said at QIC, the high shutter speed may have compromised the technical quality. It is not sharp and is noisy. Perhaps some more processing needed? The composition is nice. Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:29, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Comment Agree with Charles' comment above. There is also quite a lot of purple fringing - especially noticeable on the rock at the bottom, but also on some of the blades of grass. Should be easy enough to fix, though. BigDom (talk) 14:56, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
•  CommentThank you for nominating my picture ! I will fix issues mentionned above this evening. --Giles Laurent (talk) 16:15, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Support Thank you for your comments Charlesjsharp and BigDom. I uploaded a new file that fixed everything you mentioned. --Giles Laurent (talk) 18:25, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

• I don't notice much difference (after purging page). Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:05, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

  There's no noise anymore and it's sharper. Should it be even sharper according to you? Giles Laurent (talk) 20:46, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

• Yes, much better;  Support could still use manual denoise around fur. This page's 'purge cache' does nothing. I had to clear my PC's cache to be able to view/download new version. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:47, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

  Yes the "purge cache" from this page is meant for the page itself and not the picture. To force refresh of a picture (or page) press F5 on your keyboard if you are on Windows or cmd+R if you are on Mac. As for the fur there's not really noise (there was only in the first version).

•  Comment I haven't decided yet whether this is an FP, and it would be more obvious if there weren't bits of vegetation blocking our view of part of the marmot, but it's surely sharp enough for me, it's nice to see it surrounded by its natural habitat, and the overall composition, as viewed at full page, is good. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:03, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Support Quality much better now, and for composition etc. I could just repeat Ikan’s accurate words. --Aristeas (talk) 07:24, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Support Nice composition of a wild animal taken from a large distance -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:06, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
