Oppose A dome....nothing of interesting --LivioAndronico (talk) 22:00, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
Comment - The photo seems to clearly slope down to the left of center, and at least the smaller dome on the right seems to slope down to the right. I see no-one's commented on this, but why is it happening, and should anything be done to fix it? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:58, 29 August 2017 (UTC)
- @Ikan Kekek: my guess would be lens distortion, which is pretty common in drone cameras (but not always as recognizable as here, depending on what's depicted). The focal length of 8.8 mm has about the same field of view as a 24 mm lens on 135 format ("Full Frame"). That's a pretty wide angle, so some distortion can be expected. But it seems that there are options for automated software correction available for Adobe products [1]. --El Grafo (talk) 14:12, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for that info, El Grafo. A.Savin, any comments about this? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:30, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, if you wish. My intention was, to show the entire central dome as close as possible. Not sure is some distortion on the small domes (of them at least two always will appear along with the big one) is evitable, nor if I could do any more about it with LR/PS. Feel free to vote as you like, I'm not Livioandronico and will surely neither insult you for that nor vote anywhere in revenge )) --A.Savin 20:15, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
- I laughed out loud at that. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:52, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

- Mild Oppose - I like this photo a lot, but I don't really understand why the distortion can't be fixed, and it bugs me sufficiently to oppose in spite of everything that's good about this picture. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:24, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose per Ikan Kekek--shizhao (talk) 13:24, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
