- Support We often strongly disagree, but you know I'm happy your are here, we need you and your so special pictures. Excellent quality (the textures of the clothes are remarkable).--Jebulon (talk) 08:52, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

- Comment Yes indeed, a bit small, this is from my first digital pictures from a few years ago... and I could´n get close to the subject... --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:42, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

- Support. Yes, indeed it is a photo with wabi-sabi. ;-) The resolution is extremely low though. I would almost oppose for that reason. I assume you didn't see this composition when you took the photo and later realised that this crop worked better. Diliff (talk) 11:05, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not an expert of wabi-sabi but I don't think this photo is with wabi-sabi (侘・寂). That's not Sabi (寂) but maybe this have wabi-shii (侘しい) feeling although wabi-shii is different from Wabi (侘), I think :) --Laitche (talk) 11:41, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
- OK fair enough. I'm far from an expert myself but it seemed to match the characteristics mentioned in the English Wiki article on it. You say it is not Sabi but the Japanese article (using Google Translate - perhaps a mistake!) says Sabi is "a state in which deteriorated by the passage of time". That seems like the the old, worn clothes of the homeless person? Anyway, I guess it doesn't matter if it's wabi-sabi or not but I'm sure it's something we could talk about for a long time. :-) Diliff (talk) 11:50, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
- I guess (in short version) Wabi is Enjoying the insufficient things. (refusing gorgeous, luxurious, brilliant or like that.). And Sabi is Quiet but deeply or/and rich beauty. (So, sometimes "a state in which deteriorated by the passage of time" makes quiet.), IMO. --Laitche (talk) 12:18, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
- Diliff I saw the subject coming down alongside a trench where we were installing pipe, but on the other side, so I couldn´t get across in time, so I had to shoot from where I was and the camera did not have a powerful zoom. The crop is sideways, from top to bottom is almost complete, so yes, the resolution is low, taken with a 4 megapixel camera, but that´s what I had in the moment. As far as crops, I do not constraint myself to the camera format, probably the first tool I use is the crop in editing, and then I go and adjust values. Cropping for me is a useful way to bring out the subject. Thanks for your vote :) --Tomascastelazo (talk) 15:27, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
