- Info This one's all about the bright contrasting colours on the three houses of otherwise-identical design. Hopefully you will find it interesting enough for FP. created by Tilman2007 - uploaded by Tilman2007 - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 19:44, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose No wow for me --Michielverbeek (talk) 20:24, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I think there is some potential here, but: 1) the composition is too right-heavy, i.e. some of the left-hand side should be cropped out; and 2) the shadows at the bottom are distracting. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 05:33, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
- Support This photo has also caught my eye before. I understand the critique, but when I look at it in full size, I am still very impressed by it. For me the beautiful light and colours just work. --Aristeas (talk) 07:54, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Certainly nice but the viewing angle is just too ordinary for me, too straightforward, to generate any wow. The lighting does not emphasise the "bright contrasting colours" meant by the author, instead it rather smoothens them. The cut-off adjacent building & tree make the framing look arbitrary. A wide-angle full frontal view with full light on the houses might work perfectly, as well as a steeper angle from the left from wider distance to get the three closer together. Something more … inspired than an angle that any walking-by tourist would choose, sorry. And yes, the shadows nail it for me too per KoH. --Kreuzschnabel 08:35, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I think it could work with a tighter crop. See note. Daniel Case (talk) 19:20, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
- Comment That’s a good idea. --Aristeas (talk) 07:09, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: would support with perspective correction and the left house cropped out. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 17:02, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
Alternative[edit]
- Support Alternative crop added and @Michielverbeek, Aristeas, Kreuzschnabel, Daniel Case, The Cosmonaut, and King of Hearts: Cmao20 (talk) 14:46, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: better, but still leaning to the right. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 14:54, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
- @The Cosmonaut: It is quite difficult to improve the perspective correction, because these old buildings have imperfect verticals and it is impossible to get all of the verticals exactly vertical ;–). But … maybe we can get it a bit better. What would you think about this version? Just curious. Best, --Aristeas (talk) 10:05, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- Aristeas, do feel free to overwrite my alt with a better one if you like. Cmao20 (talk) 13:45, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you, Cmao20. But I am just not sure – because these buildings are old, no version looks perfect. What would you think about my attempt? Is it better or at least equal? --Aristeas (talk) 16:14, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- It seems like a pretty uncontroversial improvement to me, the verticals are as close to vertical as you're going to get. Cmao20 (talk) 16:18, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you very much! I will exchange the alt image and ping all voters (see below). --Aristeas (talk) 18:37, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

- Support Thank you! The crop increases the effect of this photo. --Aristeas (talk) 07:04, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- Support --Famberhorst (talk) 15:27, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- Support This version I like more. -- Radomianin (talk) 16:37, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Cmao20, The Cosmonaut, Ikan Kekek, Princess Rosalina, Daniel Case, Famberhorst, and Radomianin: Since The Cosmonaut has emphasized that the buildings (mostly the leftmost ones) are leaning to the right, I have tried to improve the perspective correction of the crop. As suggested by Cmao20, I have exchanged the image of this alternative nomination. Please check if this version is OK for you. Please note that it was not possible to get all verticals straight – these are old buildings which are not perfectly rectangular ;–). Thank you and sorry for the extra work. --Aristeas (talk) 18:37, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I support either version, but yours is slightly better. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:45, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- OK This new version has enhanced the photo even more, Aristeas. Thank you very much for the careful editing :) -- Radomianin (talk) 19:38, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
