Support - I don't know how this nomination will be received. To me, this is a very inviting picture because it puts the viewer in the vicarious mindset of someone who's looking across the empty, peaceful lake and at the hills, mountains and clouds beyond, before considering whether to get into the boat and take a trip on it. The relative emptiness of the near left side by comparison to the near right side, which I could see coming in for some criticism, is not relevant to this dynamic, though as a point of composition, I also think that kind of non-symmetry can be fine. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:52, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Info created by Henri Meyer and published in Le Petit Journal in 1898, this cartoon is meant to illustrate the imperialist behaviour of the great powers towards China at the time. It has since become the image illustrating imperialism in Asia, being oft reprinted in various publications and school books right up to the present day. This original LPJ page was scanned and created as a digital file by Cornell University Library; uploaded to Commons and nominated by Peulle. In my view, the best Commons version of this image should be considered one of its finest images as a matter of course.--Peulle (talk) 01:02, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I respectfully Oppose, on the basis that for FP, I think this image should be digitally restored to eliminate the foxing and possibly intensify colors that may have faded. If they have, I'm not sure how much, so I'm a lot more cautious about that, but at least the foxing should be eliminated. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:11, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose} Again, I see nothing that says that should be FP: not colour lighting, composition... Charles (talk) 21:56, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I think the idea is quite interesting, but to support such a shot for FP I'd be looking for more exciting light, some proper sunshine. Also more whiteness; the mid section is a bit yellow-ish so the ice looks dirty.--Peulle (talk) 22:22, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Runoff ice is often yellowish in color from the humus in the soil and it usually occurs on the north side of cliffs where there is no sun to evaporate the water. This kind of ice should not be confused with normal icicles. The only article about this phenomenon is in the Swedish WP, but since you are Norwegien as well as lector of biology, I don't think there will be any problem for you to understand it. I especially like that this piece of "svallis" looks like a frothing river waterfall (rivers can be yellow too) captured at 1/1000. :) --Cart (talk) 22:33, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Info Shrine of Fatima Masumeh, Qom, considered by Shia Muslims to be the second most sacred city in the country after Mashhad, Iran. Fatima Masumeh, daughter of the seventh Twelver Shī‘ah Imām, Mūsā' al-Kādhim and sister of the eighth Twelver Shī‘ah Imām, ‘Ali ar-Ridhā, was killed in Qom in 201 A.H. poisoned by a women from the enemies, fell ill, and asked to be taken to Qom, where she died. The style of Fatima Masumeh's Shrine has developed over many centuries. At first, her tomb was covered with a bamboo canopy, then replaced by a more durable domed building and later further two domes were to the Shrine. All by me, Poc o² 21:17, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Info The Maximilianeum, seat of the Bavarian State Legislature, at night with light trails created by a passing streetcar and an almost full moon. A very difficult shot. Blue hour lasts about 30 minutes currently. My goal was to inlude a streetcar's light trails into the long exposure. According to schedule every 10 minutes a streetcar is supposed to be passing that spot. So I only had three chances to catch the scene without pedestrians, cyclists, trucks, ... The WB is totally fine, btw. Both the building's iliumination and the street lights are rather yellowish. So the sky's dark blue might even serve as complementary color here.

I had really wonderful conditions 20 minutes earlier (i.e. 2 trams before) but then - bam, suddenly, and out of nowhere - a racing cyclist sped down the lane, killing my composition... this was the most nerve-wracking motif I've tried to photograph in quite a while... ;-) --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 08:20, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - I just gave this a critical review at COM:QIC: It's interesting, but IMO, it's too noisy. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:52, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Info This image was taken in infrared with a filter made of a floppy disk. it's hard to have less noise with this technique. 10:01, 28 March 2018 (UTC) I upload with less noise but it makes solid et flat color. --Lahminewski Lab (talk) 16:43, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support Interesting and unique enough to compensate for the noise, IMO. I take it this was shot in the 'old school' style and not simply by shooting normally and slapping an IR filter on it through PhotoShop (in which case I think no such image should be promoted). --Peulle (talk) 15:49, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Info No it's digital infrared with a camera sensor unfiltered. I added a DIY filter to block the visible light. There is just a white balance. ;) --Lahminewski Lab (talk) 16:50, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Info created by Granada - uploaded by Granada - nominated by Granada -- Granada (talk) 09:58, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Info

The second before Nikola Aljetic in red passed the ball to Nicolussi (image 1) who instantaneoulsy ran to the center leaving the two players in white behind. He did not lose control over the ball and could succesfully throw it, but goal keeper Thomas Hurich caught it with his left leg spawned out wide. Ad Categories: the players without categories don't even have articles yet and I don't like single-image-categories. But I'll create the categories as they now have more than that single photo. :) --Granada (talk) 18:04, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Suggestion: make the description say something about what's actually going on in the image. It's not just three named players on the court, it's Nicolussi in the process of finishing an attack while the defenders stand watching. I also think their names should be in the categories, should they not?--Peulle (talk) 16:25, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Info Frauenkirche, Munich, as seen from N - a rare view taken atop the "Lovelace", an only temporarily accessible pop-up project.

Support, on balance. I agree on an intellectual level that more scenery and less road might improve things, but when you get a scene like this with such beautiful mist, you take the photo. Plus, a road isn't just something to look at; it represents the vicarious experience of driving through this wonderful scene.

Daniel, I think you used the wrong 'vote' sign. ;) I agree that the crop is a bit unusual. I was going for what Colin did in an earlier nom with a rose to try out something else than the normal full-front/whatever photo of a flower. An accepted style in most places, not so much on FPC it seems. Ah well, I'll survive. :) -- Cart (talk) 21:36, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@W.carter: Indeed I did ... perhaps it shows how ambivalent I was. Maybe that crop works better with a less strong color. Daniel Case (talk) 21:39, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support This is actually a pure snapshot. Half an hour prior to the kickoff to yesterday's soccer match of the Austrian women against Serbia I talked a bit to the two TV-presenters. Ms. Inhof remembered me from earlier matches and asked if her current photo in Wikipedia was made by me. I said yes and she replied that it's quite nice, but it was taken during an interview for TV and her eyes are not perfectly open. So I said: no problem, let's take a new picture. Said, done. I took a small step back, she turned her smile to my camera and there it was. But to be honest: her whole presence makes it easy to photograph her, she's very photogenic. --Granada (talk) 09:33, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support --A.Savin 07:31, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Amazing sight. I'm impressed that you went to such a remote, inhospitable place. Did it smell terrible from the sulfur? I've also read that it can be dangerous to go to this part of Ethiopia (for example, see voy:Danakil Depression#Stay safe) - is that largely obsolete information? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:41, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I actually just updated that section since I posted my previous remark; it doesn't seem like the travel advisories are obsolete. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:14, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi IK: yes there is "rotten egg" smell (I think, earlier times even a gas mask was necessary), and thanks for updating the "Stay safe" section (I'm planning to write a Russian WV article). In fact, only guided group tour is allowed there, accompanied by local guides and some soldiers, so actually with Common sense no need to feel unsafe. There were many tourists from Europe, USA, China etc. --A.Savin 09:57, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral Vigneting artificially added, excesive noise reduction (see beach sand), oversharpened on edges (see neon light). Also Canon EOS 5D Mark II is a 21.1-megapixel full-frame camera, please upload the full size version. --The Photographer 18:01, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very nice. I don't think any vigneting has been artificially added. The right is darker than the left and that frequently happen with long exposure, I mean a side darker than the other especially at a top corner. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 18:40, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Christian Ferrer you will find in this uncropped that the region haven't actually the same vigneting like this nomination. --The Photographer 21:27, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That is not an uncropped version, this is a different photo with different exposure times, and not taken at the same time. And that kind of small difference (8/1 sec vs 15/1 sec; and 19:34:11 vs 19:44:24 during the blue hour (or near) is not a difference this is an ocean of differences, and the result is of course completely different photos.

Oppose Sorry but if you had a proper horizon, you would see it going up and down. Quite a big error IMO. - Benh (talk) 17:30, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Benh: I don't know what you mean. Do you think that there is a stitching issue? where? --Poc o² 21:28, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes I meant the horizon "undulates" (thanks Daniel). It's a stitching issue. It's personally the first thing I see, and people who aren't used to stitching don't even care (They should when they are so easy to trigger the distorsion issues, this is real one...). But easy fix. - Benh (talk) 21:45, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - Benh: I don't see how your theory could be possible, I tried my best to shoot the pano (and I've shot hundreds), all settings for all frames are manual (and identical) and if there is no stitching issues. Poc o² 21:43, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    - Then you didn't shoot enough. Stitching issues are not only areas not properly overlapping, but can be on the horizon too (here undulating). And nothing connected to settings being manual or not. Here you are only "saved" because the horizon is not obvious and most reviewers are not careful. - Benh (talk) 14:52, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry, I can see what you were going for with the twin trees, but the scene isn't enough to wow me. On a side note, the composition seems a bit off, with a tight crop on the left and a bit roomy on the right - I'm not sure if others agree.--Peulle (talk) 11:06, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Respond to side note: There are three main trees and the right one is the same distance from the border as the one on the left. See notes.

Info Lenbachhaus, Munich: wing by Foster and Partners - worm's-eye view. I'm feeling bold today so I'd like to nominate this very abstract architecture shot. Everything's reduced to the minimum here. The building intself is just a golden triangle surrounded by a blue sky. Looking more closely, the buildings's triangle actually consists of two smaller triangles, one well lit and golden, the other in shade and rather dark. Each of these triangles is further subdivided by even smaller triangles. The sky's also made up of two, slightly overlapping triangles. All in all very fitting for the representation of a museum dedicated in part to abstract art and featuring works by Wassily Kandinsky or Paul Klee.

~~* Oppose~~ In this I have to agree with the 'o's, unfortunately. It is almost there, but if you are going to go abstract, you have to go all in. Make the photo really mathematical and let the tip of the gold touch the border and make two true blue triangles. That would also make the blue/gold ratio in the photo more equal/pleasant. I don't know if this shot can be really saved by a crop since it will be very "panoramic" in shape. Will leave a note though. -- Cart (talk) 21:56, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative[edit]

Info Following Ikan's suggestion, I'd like to nominate an alternative that offers a bit more sky at the top without abandoning the fundamental (i.e. "mathematically abstract") concept of the image. While I do agree with Cart that "going all in" is the right thing to do in a case like this one, I also understand that carefully conceding a tiny bit to more conventional rules of composition might make this nomination easier. So here's my "compromise," if you will... pinging all previous voters: Basotxerri, Peulle, Karelj, Johann Jaritz, Daniel Case, Berthold Werner, Poco, Michielverbeek, Grtek, Llez, El Grafo, MZaplotnik.

- @W.carter and Basile Morin: I don't think the faces are too dark. But I made a darker background and a crop, as suggested. Regards, Yann (talk) 06:14, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The crop is certainly better now. But concerning the darkness of the foreground, I don't think there's much to do, unfortunately. The heads lack details because the light was not there during the shot. We can't see easily the wrinkles, the eyes, the moustache, and all the interesting parts that make a good portrait. The whole picture is too contrasted, with a background normally enlightened and a subject totally in the shadow -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:01, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment More background information (description/categories) is necessary to provide some minimal educational level. --A.Savin 11:55, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per El Grafo. At first I thought she had put on too much foundation (that's a sort of make-up to you guys) but it can just as well be a post edit. Also not a fan of the badly applied mascara., you need to be more careful when you don your stuff for a close-up photo. The eyes themselves are indeed beautiful. --Cart (talk) 13:27, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, I think the eyes may be just as fake as the skin: Same model with different eye colors here, here, here and possibly here (observe the position of dark spots on the iris). Don't get me wrong, changing the eye color is a totally normal thing to do in pixabay/500px/whatever type pictures and might even be OK for a FP if documented properly. But she appears to be wearing a contact lens that's smaller than her iris? Looks strange to me … --El Grafo (talk) 15:01, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think the photographer is just playing around in Photoshop with the color of her eyes. I don't think she is wearing lenses, there is just some light-play/reflections on her irises. You can't wear lenses smaller than your iris, even for a second, it hurts like hell! --Cart (talk) 17:57, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment As far as I can see, this image has been nominated previously under a different file name. Charles (talk) 21:53, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Not that long ago either ... about a year ago and without changes since then. Is this what we're doing now? Re-nominating images that didn't quite get enough support votes last time? Can I do that with all my failed noms? --Peulle (talk) 22:57, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's quite bizarre to see this kind speech ^ in an open and collaborative community that has educational as its principals.

Charles I renamed the file as the Professor responsible for museum requested. It's a renomination, it's quite clearing that's a renomination, as we have access to history, but as I had to change the name of the file, put a /2 on it was wrong, and I didn't find documentation to how to proceed.

-- Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton^m 03:17, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies if my response sounded harsh. Without judging the actual quality of the image, I am going to formally Oppose this nomination since 1) the image has previously (and fairly recently) failed to reach featured status, 2) there seems to have been no change to the image since then, 3) the nominator has not specified any reason for the renomination. Please accept my submission that without good reason, failed nominations should not be renominated. --Peulle (talk) 08:45, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment AFAICS, simply changing the name of a file is not sufficient grounds for a renomination, the image itself needs to be improved or changed in some significant way. That is not the case here, it is exactly the same image. I will not vote since I consider this nomination invalid. The community reached a decision about this image a year ago and that still stands. --Cart (talk) 09:13, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- While it is disappointing to fail through lack of support, vs clear oppose votes, the result is the same. Many people dislike opposing, and so when they fail to turn up and support, it still counts as a failure. For renoms, in addition to improving an image, or cases where a previous nomination got complicated or disrupted (such as too many alternatives proposed), I would support a renom in it was felt that there had been long enough duration (years) between noms that the community attitude towards a type of image may have changed. Doing it again merely to get another spin at the roulette wheel is not fair IMO. -- Colin (talk) 11:58, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I reopen the vote, as a volunteer created an unhealthy environment in previously discussion, and by one vote didn't pass by false allegations, not because the lack of quality.

And them, well we have a new unwelcoming environment to discuss about this image again.

This kind of environment move away votes, contributions, more than low quality, a lot volunteers deviate harsh speech, but I think that you know that.

Again your are prioritising your political views than the evaluation of image...

.

Just one point, this seems to be a wiki community, and the one of the beauty of wiki is the possibility to change - as we have the possibility to remove a FP badge, rediscuss one image is not harmful, harmful is this what you are creating.

-- Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton^m 12:38, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

RTA, the only volunteer who "created an unhealthy environment in previously discussion" was you. I don't know which "false allegations" you refer to, but sounds a bit like saying lies, which isn't very friendly. One supporter's only contributions to FPC in 2017 were to support your nominations. Another hadn't contributed to FPC for four months and would not vote again for another eight months. Both Brazilian.

Oppose - We recently voted to feature File:20180405 FIFA Women's World Cup Qualification AUT-SRB Kristina Inhof 850 6519.jpg, another photo of a sports journalist. Look how nice Ms. Inhof's clothes are, compared to Ms. Brunati's uninteresting t-shirt. Also, see how Ms. Brunati's face is glary from excessive lighting, whereas Ms. Inhof's face is nicely naturally lit. Finally, compare the banal background in this photo with the unobtrustive bokeh in the other one. And then there's also the fact that this is just not a very flattering photo, as we see what might be a pimple to the (viewer's) right of Ms. Brunati's nose. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:58, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

For now this vote is more a green support than a strong oppose but to answer your comment, Charles, these domestic buffaloes are not enclosed and then free to graze and move where they want. I think such practices are more respectful than to park them in a small enclosure like in other areas in the world. But these are not wild animals, contrary to what it seems ! And concerning the rope in their noses, Wikipedia says "Bulls, especially, are powerful and sometimes unpredictable animals which, if uncontrolled, can kill or severely injure a human handler". Also I don't encourage any practice just taking this picture, I was passing by this river bank, and met these animals starring at me like big sharks, that made me shoot -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:19, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes an innocently-taken image can reveal animal cruelty. Could I suggest you have a look at these online comments on what's behind this photo: one; two

Charles, are you ok? You vote with the wrong symbol, you confuse wiki-link code with external link code and you don't sign your comment. I have fixed the links for you though. Hope you are taking care of yourself, --Cart (talk) 19:55, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm just committed to animal welfare and I hope we all are. When I'm cross, I make more mistakes! Sorry. Charles (talk) 21:55, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good to hear, you had me worried there for a while. The Wiki-project needs good photos of everything. Remaining neutral when judging good photos or good text in articles can sometimes be very hard when the content goes against our own feelings on the subject. Good photos are supposed to extract emotions from us and make us think. --Cart (talk) 22:07, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, but this well-composed image was taken in good faith just to be an interesting shot, which it is. A close-up of the ropes piercing the animals' heads would be very acceptable if the caption described what was being depicted. To give another example, it would not be acceptable (in my view) to nominate a pretty picture of very young children sewing colourful carpets without mentioning the abusive practice of child labour. Charles (talk) 07:22, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well then, the solution would be to add neutral information about this part of the photo, since it is possible to extract closeups from this photo (one of the reasons why FPs are in hi-res). Let's see if I can fix that so that all parties will be satisfied. My edit can of course be removed or tweaked. --Cart (talk) 09:23, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Totally agree to mention this nose rope in the description. I also added a link to the Bubalus bubalis, which is the main subject. However, I don't think this picture is the right place to debate about the nose ring, the Wikipedia article is much more appropriate to the discussion (in favor or against), and a link to the page might be enough, I think. Then I changed the description accordingly to the vision I have about this image. Thanks for the contributions -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:29, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's ok, but in the new edit you instead inserted a personal comment and veiwpoint ("At this bank, starring at the camera like three sharks, or like three attentive observers, they're rather funny to look at, as if they were expecting something from their group photograph.") That should be removed since it doesn't belong in a neutral image description, please do so. Let the viewer form their own oppinion about the photo. Like if this photo was to be used in an article about nose ropes, that's not the sort of comment you'd want accompanying the picture. --Cart (talk) 12:47, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I took the liberty to write it's funny because I'm not the only one to find so, reading the others. And concerning your idea about nose ropes, reading the Wikipedia page, there is not (yet) people against -- Basile Morin (talk) 14:07, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Just because there are at least two people finding something funny, does not mean it is so for everyone. I for one don't find this funny at all. But it's a good picture. Image descriptions should be neutral, that's how encyclopedic material works. If you don't like to have other people's values in an image text, you should not impose your values either. --Cart (talk) 14:54, 16 April 2018 (UTC)~[reply]

- Comment I agree that the quality of the shell photos I usually present here is better. But I please you to note, that such tiny objects can not be photographed with a normal camera. All my photos of tiny shells, see for example the Caecidae or Rissoidae photos, are made with a binocular microscope, which does never reach (and is also not comparable with) the quality of pictures of a good "normal" camera. --Llez (talk) 13:16, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - Ok, I strike through my vote as I've no experience in this kind of photography, and therefore I don't really feel qualified to judge the result Poc o² 18:21, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know which camera is used here, but there's a lens by Canon for this kind of shots, the MP-E_65mm_F2.8_1-5x_Macro. See the pictures taken with it in this Category:Taken_with_Canon_MP-E_65mm_F2.8_1-5x_Macro -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:20, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I've that lens (and in that cat there are a few QIs of mine) but so far I just used it outdoors, which is really hard. I'll try to take some studio images of tiny objects with my 5DS R, I didn't try that yet. Poc o² 18:04, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Info For the shell photos I normally use a 60mm Tamron Macro objective, which is comparable to the Canon lens mentioned above. This objective is useful for objects (e.g. shells) down to 6 mm (of course I made this photo with the 60mm Macro). All objects, which are smaller can't be photographed picture-filling any more, for you can't go closer to the object. This means, the smaller the object, the smaller is the object on the photo and the more empty space you have (and the more quality loss you have). Therefore I use for objects smaller than 6 mm not a normal camera with macro lens but an UCMOS 14000KPA camera (4096 x 3288 px) in combination with a microscope or a binocular mircoscope respectively, which allows picture filling photos of objects from 6 mm down to 10 μm (!), an object size, which is impossible to photograph with a normal macro lens. All my photos of shells, of which the size is below 7 mm, are made with the UCMOS 14000KPA. --Llez (talk) 14:56, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting. I've added two categories : Pareidolias and Condoms. If not in the description, what makes this picture special should be mentioned somewhere on the file page, I think -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:27, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I question adding category:condoms, since this is not a condom. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:32, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

True, but shall we create the new category "condom-shaped objects", considering this will be the only file in this sub-cat, and will probably remain as it for quite a while ? This is not a condom, but this is not a "condom in art" neither, nor any other existing category-related file. If created, "Condoms in nature" would sound strange . Also, "Condoms" seems very general here, and all the pictures of condoms are more in this sub-Category:Condoms_by_sex (male and female), that's why I think "Condoms" is a good choice for now. But any better suggestion ? welcome -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:00, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think we need to have categories for everything that looks like something else. Basic shapes are enough. We also don't need to put every object that might look like something into a category for that, otherwise you would have to put every elongated object, obelisk or structure into Category:Penis-shaped objects. --Cart (talk) 10:06, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Cart. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:16, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I totally disagree. What makes this picture special, in my opinion, is that it looks like a condom, more than a shell ! Kind of prehistoric condom at first sight :-) The resemblance is amazing, and the illusion is so strong that the author mentionned it straight at the top of their nomination :"No, it is NOT what you think it is on the first sight ! ". Exactly the same impression I had when I discovered this shape of a shell : it clearly looks like a male contraceptive. Not only an elongated shape that would make it approximately similar, but also something hollow on the base with a roll aspect, and the most caracteristic detail, a kind of reservoir on the top ! That's just awesome for a coincidence. This definitely creates a good pareidolia, that means a "psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus being perceived as significant". Sorry but I can't look at this shell without thinking to a condom (not my fault it's a sexual-related subject), as I can't look at this rock without thinking to an elephant. Same degree of proximity, and that's perfectly normal to read "elephant" in the description of this file. Would be ridiculous to remove the appropriate category and say "Well, it's just a saltwork formation in a desert in reality, not an elephant" ! In Thailand, there is a famous site in Koh Samui with two rocks displaying a phallus and a vulva. This site attracts a lot of visitors every day and Wikimedia has a Category:Hin_Ta_Hin_Yai which is of course included in the categories Phallic symbols and Vulva symbols. That's the logics. Concerning the Category:Penis-shaped_objects, it's perfectly legitimate to find inside these knockers, but what would be worth the picture without mentionning this particular aspect of the metallic object ? Insignificant. I've uploaded a stain on Commons a few years ago File:Pareidolia_stain_on_wall_as_map_of_France.jpg and this work would lose absolutely all its content if the illusion of the map of France was not mention anywhere on the file. We would just see this spot like another ordinary stain, and above all quite a bad photo ! I'm not saying Llez's shell is bad (the only reason I don't support the nomination is because I find the quality a bit too low, however the picture is really great, and fortunately we also have great pictures on Commons which are not necessarily featured). Just what makes this photo awesome, in my opinion, apart from the fact it is a very small object, it is that it looks like a condom, and this is exceptional, yes. The Category:Penis-shaped_objects would fit approximately, and Condoms too, but this last one is more precize in my opinion. Most of the examples of pareidolias on Google are heads and faces with eyes and mouth. When they're not fakes, such objects resembling to other objects are really very rare. Here we're confused by the reality and need to look at twice ! This file is then an excellent example of this kind of illusion, and should thus be promoted as such without ambiguity. It doesn't spoil the shell characteristics, it just brings an extra value, which may attracts more views to this tiny specimen among its huge collection. This shell definitely generates a pareidolia, and as part of this phenomenon, which object does it evoke ? A condom. -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:57, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oh! And here I thought it was a dildo, with a bunny-ear-tickler on top and a switch for the vibrator at the bottom.

Info Theatine Church, Munich, as seen from S - a rare view taken atop the "Lovelace", a temporary pop-up project. Built from 1663 to 1690, it was founded by Elector Ferdinand Maria and his wife, Henriette Adelaide of Savoy, as a gesture of thanks for the birth of the long-awaited heir to the Bavarian crown, Prince Max Emanuel, in 1662. Its mediterranean appearance and yellow coloring became a well known symbol for the city and had much influence on Southern German baroque architecture.

  - It goes to wow. I'm not wowed if the model looks unhappy or bored. The relationship between the artist and the model as depicted in the portrait is absolutely central to portraiture, in the opinion of many great artists - or to put it another way, a great portrait shows something interesting about the subject's personality. Being merely uncomfortable, bored, or generically unhappy-looking is not compelling. I will think about this more and reconsider tomorrow or the next day, but I sure am tempted to oppose. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:18, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    - Ikan Kekek: Sorry, but for the 13 years the FP contest is going on, and I have been on Commons, I have never seen such a justification for opposing. I don't understand why, for portraits, some people look for justification outside of the criteria used in other cases. You are not the only one, the last I remember was "Seating on the railway track is dangerous"... Hopefully, "looking happy" is not a valid criteria for a FP: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, etc., etc. Regards, Yann (talk) 07:47, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      - Yann, what finite set of "criteria" do you think reviewers apply? The only criteria that matters is that the image is among "the finest on Commons", in the opinion of a good majority of reviewers. -- Colin (talk) 10:27, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Yann. All facial expressions can be interesting. The main point is how communicative they are -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:15, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I agree with Ikan that the woman looks a bit vacant -- asking for someone to put a thought-bubble on the image. The colour is a bit yellow orange (see the whites of her eyes). The world is full of images of attractive women, lit and photographed with professional-level equipment. I'm looking for more than just technical competence for an FP on an educational media repository. Are we seeing a great character or expression? Does the person's culture or personality show? Notability helps, but not required. Is the setup (lighting, hair, makeup, technique) demonstrating a particular kind of portrait photography particularly well? And so on. -- Colin (talk) 10:27, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Colin: Your comment about the color is valid. I have tried to fix that. Any help would be welcome on this point. Other criteria are irrelevant. We have plenty of nominations here, where the educative value is nearly non-existent, and people only vote on the picture quality. Why a different system here? (And to me, people's faces are much more interesting than bugs, random places, etc.) And yes, the world may be full of images of attractive women, but very few of them are under a free license. Compared to other subjects, we have very few good portraits. So yes, I argue that this is one the finest portraits we have on Commons. Regards, Yann (talk) 11:09, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I share this idea too -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:15, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't find your statement "Other criteria are irrelevant." to be at all helpful to this discussion. If you wish to have a personally restricted criteria for judging portraits, that's your choice. Dismissing the views of other reviewers as irrelevant is rather hostile. We will each look at this image and weigh its qualities and bring with us our own likes, dislikes, experience, etc. Some people might like expression on her face; others consider it suboptimal. You can disagree of course, and try to change people's minds, but telling me my opinions are irrelevant is a quick way to make me change it to a strong oppose and unwatch. -- Colin (talk) 12:59, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like the chronology of the exchanges has been mixed in this discussion -- Basile Morin (talk) 13:12, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Colin: I would like that portraits are judged on quality, like every other FPC, not on irrelevant criteria, like "she looks unhappy". Regards, Yann (talk) 13:19, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Of course we are discussing quality. Will you please stop using the word "irrelevant" because if you use it again I really will change my vote and unwatch. There are lots of different kinds of portraiture. Some want blank expressions (fashion photography, say). Some might want "melancholy", as Basile sees here. And perhaps there are styles of portraiture where this blank look here is exactly what is desired. Do you think the only "quality" of a portrait is the lighting and a sharp lens? Our "criteria" don't mention bokeh, yet that is often an essential part of a portrait. Is that to be dismissed as "irrelevant"? Do we have rules about how to judge bokeh? Well, I don't need or want rules to judge the pose and expression on a model in a photo. There are whole books on the topic of posing subjects for portraiture. I'm fine if others think those aspects of the photo are good enough to support. I also find the round catchlight in her eyes is just a bit too large, central and dominant. Or do I need a catchlight criteria to mention that? -- Colin (talk) 13:55, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Colin: You are mixing up objective criteria, which are absolutely on the point, and subjective criteria, which are debatable (to put it mildly). If we don't have a mention of bokeh, that's an oversight, and should be corrected. It is a quality criteria essential for portraits (and other cases). Regards, Yann (talk) 14:02, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yann, are there objective criteria for composition? Or for wow? Is there one for "Sorry, I don't get it?". Ok. I oppose per official objective criteria ZZ9 Plural Z Alpha. Unwatching now. -- Colin (talk) 14:14, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support Melancholy and attractive woman -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:15, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I'm not wowed. I can also say that I read the above discussion and now I'm thinking that's several minutes of my life I'll never get back. I can never understand why some people just won't leave well enough alone but have to start arguing their point of view whenever a reviewer here disagrees with them. The Guidelines (which also uses quotations marks around the words "wow factor", btw.) clearly state that there is no objective criterium for this: "An image "speaks" to different people differently", so when somebody says that they just don't get that "wow" feeling when looking at an image, don't argue, just suck it up and hope that enough other people do. If they do, there's a chance. If they don't, well, then the image doesn't appear to have a strong enough appeal. It doesn't prevent you from liking it, it's just the way the system here works. Live with it.--Peulle (talk) 14:38, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose For whatever reason, her face looks unreal, which coupled with the expression (or lack thereof) makes me think the next image in the sequence is going to be her with her faceplate off, showing the underlying machinery and circuitry. Daniel Case (talk) 15:32, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Well, I must say, your argument that my viewpoint on portraiture was "irrelevant" certainly persuaded me to change my opinion. NOT! Oppose per my remarks above and per others. Next time, try respecting my argument and engaging with it, if you'd like me to consider changing my mind. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:46, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose While this is an old school glamour portrait, my main objection is the orientation of it. Had it been in portrait format and included all of her hair, that would have created a beautiful line against the dark dress and matched the lines in the background as well as the rectangular shape of her face. That would certainly have been grounds for wow. (Approximation) --Cart (talk) 10:48, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I just cannot see anything special; no 'wow' at all. An image like this with no encyclopaedic value, but submitted as an 'artistic' image has to be pretty special to fulfil the FP criteria highly skilled photographers/highest quality. I can't see a demonstration of technical skill (composition/sharpness etc) and I personally don't find the dalek comparison convincing - they look nothing like your shot.

I've seen jaguars in the Pantanal and they are not that colour. Charles (talk) 07:47, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree the sharpness is an issue. The technical quality seems fine for a 400mm telephoto. At 6MP it looks completely sharp and would print A4 just fine. Charles, what specifically is wrong with the colour? Do you think the white balance is wrong? Surely the colour will change somewhat depending on ambient light. -- Colin (talk) 09:02, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Colour is too orange - check out the colour of the eyes - no other images on Google show this colour. Charles (talk) 12:56, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you take away the ambient soft yellow light and make the WB totally neutral (I did that in PS), you can see that there is something orange reflected in the jaguar's eyes. Orange is a preferred color to wear among some game keepers (and hunters) since many animals are color blind and they perceive it as grey while we humans can see each other even in dense foliage. This might be something like that reflecting. --Cart (talk) 15:02, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No it's not a reflection. 400mm lens. It's a false colour. Charles (talk) 20:55, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support, along similar lines as Martin. This reminds me of an illustration from "Where the Wild Things Are", except that it's a real wild thing and a real photo. Also reminds me of paintings by Le Douanier Rousseau. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:10, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support This is a picture more than a photo (and those are rare here at FPC) so composition and wow overrules technical pixel-peep-perfection. The overall light in the pic is warm, creating an ambiance, so it's normal that the jaguar gets a hint of that tone too. --Cart (talk) 11:26, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

When they're busy at work, these small animals are not so fearful. Then one can approach them quite close. I was manually shooting this yellow butterfly when a wasp arrived on my flower. Immediately I tried to focus on it, and among three shots, one got sharp (and that was enough). The butterfly is a montage from three shots. Once I had those both, I could take all my time to focus on the front of the flower (three more useful shots), even if the insects moved, the most difficult was won.

Here it's the peak of the dry season. Now specified in the description. This picture may have weaknesses yes and I agree the legs of the butterfly are parts of those. I gave a try to reduce the light on the clearest parts of the body but didn't really get any significant change, and I don't want to create an artificial image that would look overprocessed.

Oppose I understand the situation, but nonetheless: B&W for this kind of landscape doesn't work for me, sorry. --A.Savin 23:22, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose A good but also a quite common mountain portrait. The mast on the right side is leaning in. --Milseburg (talk) 11:54, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Done The mast is vertical now --Llez (talk) 13:10, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yes, the tilt of the mast is gone but the problem is retouched badly. This becomes clearer while comparing the mountain station in the current version with the former one. Sorry. --Milseburg (talk) 12:14, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    - You are right, there was a mistake in the correction. I uploaded a new version, please have again a look on it and compare with the previous (bad) correction --Llez (talk) 15:19, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      - The problems around the mast and mountain station has been resolved now in my eyes. But now Ikan has drawn attention to another problem. --Milseburg (talk) 13:25, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support A bit soft but it looks like this was the best that could be done. Lovely colors and light. Daniel Case (talk) 18:02, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support luckily the birds didn't move - considering the exposure of 8s... --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 17:19, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

those rocks are impassable, usually birds stay sleeping in the same positon or jump directly to fly --The Photographer 17:57, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Oppose. To me the left crop is at an awkward place, and the large rock formation in the middle is too centered. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:52, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry, but it looks oversharpened --Michielverbeek (talk) 21:04, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support Yes, it looks a little oversharpened but I'm forgiving that as a byproduct of the long exposure. Otherwise, I love it ... reminds me of a Roger Dean album cover, perhaps Drama, with rocks hitting the same angle as the ice on that one. Daniel Case (talk) 22:47, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Sure, there's some randomness to the left and right crops, but I love what's there - the tall rocks with a pair of gulls on them and the profusion of mussels, in particular. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:43, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Oppose, in full size looks much better than in thumbnail size but still I think that the composition would be much better cropping a portion on the right so that the focus moves to the mussels in the front Poc o² 18:40, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
