  • No offence Colin, but can you explain the question? Do you ask me to convince the viewer to go "wow"? Because I can't do that, I am not a carpet salesman! If my photos are for your eyes of a status insuffisant, you can pass your way or oppose. -- Christian Ferrer (talk) 19:06, 05 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Convince" is too strong and not what I asked. I feel many of your nominations are technically ok pictures but lack "wow", or even any clear subject. Why do you go "wow" when you see this picture. If you can't express your own amazement at the picture, why should anyone else be struck by it. Thanks. -- Colin (talk) 21:23, 5 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Colin, I could very well say why I find it wow, but I prefer to let each make the own opinion each. Good state of mind, isn't it? -- Christian Ferrer (talk) 21:38, 05 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I find it odd why on Commons FP people don't give a rationale for their support/nomination like they do on en:wp. We are left with a picture and to figure out why it is special. A really special picture is obvious and gets 10 supports before the next day. Sometimes it takes some help to know why something is good - it isn't obvious. But also, if you can't explain to others why it is special, then I feel you shouldn't nominate. Seriously, Christian, why is this special? You might not convince me, but you might convince someone else to support. -- Colin (talk) 22:52, 5 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
If you or someone else see nothing special in this picture, maybe it is not special and do not deserve to be promoted, I choose to let my photographer's talents to convince you. Is it so bad? Sorry if my pictures irritate you or someone else. I work hard to improve and I consider good to use my current and future actives nominations to make you share my work and my "extraordinary photos of landscapes". -- Christian Ferrer (talk) 06:06, 05 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The company, Lafarge, may be the worlds largest cement manufacturer, but this plant doesn't look special at all. And the light is not good photographic light. And the landscape doesn't, I'm sorry to say, look that nice. There's really nothing FP about this. -- Colin (talk) 21:23, 5 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

De gustibus et coloribus non disputandum ? That's what we do in every review ! Discussing about matter of taste ! :))--Jebulon (talk) 10:21, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
