Rosette on ceiling of chapel in Greenwich Hospital, London
 Comment At long last, I am nominating the less-corrected version of this image ... the lens distortion actually compensated somewhat for the curvature of the ceiling in question (see here and here for an image of where I was standing at the time. Daniel Case (talk) 20:03, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The picture itself is a pretty tight crop to begin with, the better to avoid the curves being too obvious. Daniel Case (talk) 21:45, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done Daniel Case (talk) 07:09, 25 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Why thank you so mcuh for your support ... now I know how all those tween girls on Twitter feel when Justin Bieber retweets them (But not all of them, thankfully).

Actually, yes I do have some other interiors that have made QI and which I am planning to nominate here soon.

As far as a tripod goes ... yes, I agree. I'm new to finally using a DSLR after shooting with just a DP/S for so long (and having had experience with film SLR, I feel like I've come back home). As I've gotten used to it more, a tripod is part of my plan for next year, as I would ruin less shots with it. And thanks for the tip about the aperture ...

Whenever you get over there, I'd love to see what you do. Daniel Case (talk) 06:09, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Elizabeth Tower
  •  Info created by Colin - uploaded by Colin - nominated by Colin -- Colin (talk) 14:19, 23 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Ok, the sky is overcast and the hour is neither golden nor blue, but the viewpoint is the platform near the top of the dome on the Methodist Central Hall, This only open to the public for a few hours, one day a year on the Sunday of Open House London weekend. So there isn't much chance to choose one's weather let alone choose the time of day. The unique viewpoint and extraordinary resolution enhance the educational value here beyond a QI to give some wow in my opinion. Specifically:

  • It shows all 96m of Big Ben (Elizabeth Tower) from base to top. Many photos of this side of the tower are cropped or obscured at the base by the trees, fencing or surrounding buildings.
  • The viewpoint is equal in height to the bottom of the clock face, and 400m distant. Therefore, the narrow vertical angle-of-view and perpendicular gaze means that the subject is not distorted, giving a true representation of the proportions and dimensions. Almost all near-view photos are taken at ground level so suffer from vertical perspective issues that can't be fully corrected. Horizontally, the angle is slightly off of face-on, which allows for more than one clock to be visible and to give a sense of depth to the tower -- other high-resolution images of the tower are flat.
  • The New Palace Yard with Jubilee fountain is visible from this angle.
  • The Union Jack is flying next to Big Ben -- can't get more British than that.
  • It is at least twice as detailed as any previous photograph of Big Ben, while also including some of the Palace of Westminster and surrounding area. Overall, this image is 205 megapixels.

I recommend using the Non-flash viewer to examine the image since the Flash viewer zooms to 200% and limits the quality of the JPG it displays. Can you find Shrek? -- Colin (talk) 14:19, 23 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Daniel Case, It has been determined in this discussion that the flickr account is official and owned by Land Rover MENA. Would you change your vote? --Fauzan✆ talk✉ mail 03:30, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Fauzan: Just because someone has uploaded under CC on Flickr doesn't necessarily mean they had the rights to do so. Do we know for sure that they work for Rover? That the photographer, if a third party, was doing so under conditions that allowed this release? Daniel Case (talk) 18:28, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Fauzan: Adding to Daniel, we don't even know if Land Rover MENA have copyright freedom, or if Land Rover UK are the only proprietary, in example of that, the official website, even in countries of MENA, all information remains UK property. -- RTA 20:23, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I have contacted them, and waiting for the OTRS team to get a reply. See the OTRS noticeboard. However, I don't think there is anything suspicious at least about the ownership of the Flickr account. --Fauzan✆ talk✉ mail 13:55, 31 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose One of problems of wanting "too much in one photo" which then destroy composition. In this case, i would leave church out, its not enligthed, would focus just on rigth part of those 2 bldngs. Bottom option doesnt seem good. I was in same doubt not long ago, better skip some part due to better composition, than to try to get all. Would better work if in dayligth, at least would be illuminated. --Mile (talk) 13:39, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't really understand why the composition is destroyed though by using an off-centre composition. In this case, it shows the location of the building as it relates to the courtyard and the three dimensionality of it - a sense of its relationship that you don't get from a frontal view. Yes, this results in perspective leans of vertical lines but this is to be expected, and I don't think it is very extreme in this case. I also took this image of the building which is from a slightly different angle and does not include the church spire behind. Do you think this is better? It was taken 4 minutes later but you can see that in that time, the lighting changed a bit and it was darker. I specifically chose to photograph it illuminated at dusk because the building (House of Blackheads) stands out much better than during the day and contrasts nicely against the blue hour sky. Diliff (talk) 15:03, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment Thats one you mentioned definately works for me, should be first alternative. Actually i like off-centre, i hate all those centering and asking PD fine on 40-50 meters high tower, and especially mentioning PD at angle shot... its nonsense. Some are too much up the rules, and not know when is not so goood to obey them. Leaving that high church out, you get some more natural-looking PD correction. I didnt know it have some name-ambient conotation. Worth to rethink. --Mile (talk) 22:24, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support /me prefers this one, too. I find the perspective view way more appealing than the frontal one. --Kreuzschnabel 07:53, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Beaver frustration
FYI Daniel Case, snowmelts like this have become increasingly frequent over the last decade. Having 10 oC+ temperatures in January is not normal in Canada. Otherwise, I agree the subject would be much better illustrated with a but more focus on the tree itself, there is a closeup version on the file's page in case you want to see the beaver's work in details.Tinss (talk) 19:12, 31 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing in the image, or the filename for that matter, tells us this picture was taken in January ... we have to go to the EXIF for that. Or where it was taken FTM—I could take such a picture in the Catskills, near where I live, where such January melts have historically been more common. If you have to explain this much to get someone to understand why it should be an FP, it's not ever going to be an FP. Daniel Case (talk) 19:25, 31 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The contrast is fine. Shadows looks like shadows (especially the one at the center). Lowering contrast will probably reduce the building visibility and there will be no "WOW" effect. -- Pofka

  •  Neutral It is without doubt an interesting building, even though it could very well also be a railway station if not for the cross (and, well, the missing rails). The image is competently taken from an interesting vantage point, but the light is not very attractive and the size is quite small. --DXR (talk) 21:50, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose per DXR. It’s really nice but since it’s a static subject and (I suppose) easy to take, there’s no excuse for the small resolution. From an FP I’d expect way more detail on the building here. Can’t be too difficult to shoot a panoramic of 4–6 frames here and stitch them to a hi-res photo of this view, which would get my immediate support. --Kreuzschnabel 03:06, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support--Emin message 18:44, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Very good. I don't understand the concerns above. We can't expect everybody to take gigapixel-HDR-panorama-shots just because some frequent nominators create such pictures (which are very impressive, of course, please don't understand me wrong). For me saying a picture could have been taken even better is not in every case a valid reason to oppose. For me this picture is excellent as it is. --Code (talk) 19:14, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment I never said it had to be a panoramic, that was just a suggestion. I’d happily support a single shot of 12 or 16 megapixels here. But I expect an FPC of less than 4 mpix to be crisp sharp and well-detailed, while this one is still a bit soft at that small resolution. My oppose is a regretful one for the view is indeed nice. I just point out that any single shot with a lower-class DSLR and kit lens purchased after 2010 would have given a better result here. --Kreuzschnabel 06:39, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Thank Frank, I hope see you again someday and take pictures, U and I together --The_Photographer (talk) 19:38, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
But that does not mean that photos in B&W can not become FPs. Here are some examples: File:PapuaNewGuineanandson.jpg, File:Tomi Ungerer par Claude Truong-Ngoc mars 2014.jpg, File:Cycling Amsterdan 03.jpg. 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 19:52, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your examples, but there were a long discussion here. No need more examples. A color image has a more EV than a BW for me. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 20:34, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
ArionEstar you are right, and this continues to be tiresome. We all get that Alchemist-hp doesn't appreciate b&w but there's no need for him to continue reminding everyone of his limitations in photographic criticism. -- Colin (talk) 21:35, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Colin: a B&W image is and remains a castration of the reality! That is my valid criticism! --Alchemist-hp (talk) 21:44, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"a castration of the reality" Do you realise you extreme you sound? The reality moves, smells and has 3D, and yet.... Please stop disrupting FP with your bias. There is always the possibility to have more EV. Wisdom says more isn't always better. -- Colin (talk) 21:56, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Alchemist-hp if you are going to continue voting against b&w on principle, then I will continue to exercise my right to criticise such biased and weak critical analysis, and to defend others who question it. If you have a problem with this, I suggest you unwatch after voting. -- Colin (talk) 22:05, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Colin you can do whatever you like. I have no problem with it. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 22:17, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@The_Photographer a proposal: if possible for you, so please show us the color image as an alternative too. Thanks, --Alchemist-hp (talk) 22:17, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Why? It is up to "The Photographer" of course, but continues to represent a misunderstanding of b&w and our choices as artists. This is his creative choice, not yours. Do you ask everyone who nominates a cropped photo to also upload the uncropped as an alternative? Or perhaps we should nominate the "out-of-camera" unadjusted exposure/colours version as an alternative in case you don't care for the post-processing someone has done? Why not just ask for the RAW and forget about reviewing JPGs at all? This is rude. Please review what you are given in the nomination, or taken your own picture. -- Colin (talk) 22:28, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Why not? It was only a proposal from me. Have a nice time at our FP side. Regards, --Alchemist-hp (talk) 22:35, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Colin and Alchemist-hp: In fact, I support this picture more because we have to have more FPs of Brazil. While there are countries with more than 80 FPs, we have only 32 FPs of Brazil. For me, this number could and should be big and great. 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 22:48, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Oops, I somehow seem to have missed the rule saying there have to be equal numbers of FPs of every country in the world. Anyroad, the point "there have to be more FPs of $COUNTRY" will never make me support. Any outstanding image quality will. --Kreuzschnabel 08:08, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
ArionEstar, this worries me more than prejudice against b&w. I've noticed your frequent "More pictures of Brazil!" comment but assumed it was just an aside. If instead, the locality of the image is your reason to support, then please stop. The collection of FPs is hugely unrepresentative for all sorts of reasons. By all means seek out under-represented images and nominate them if they are of FP quality but our mission is not served by having weak FP pictures of Brazil. If I was a photographer in Brazil, I'd feel cheated if my FP's were known to be inferior to those from photographer's in London, if the reason they are featured was to keep some statistic happy rather than because they are great. Let's compare the images, not the photographers or the countries. -- Colin (talk) 08:33, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Colin: Yes, ok. I was wrong. I take that back. Let's again? I  Support (The grey alternative version is better. 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk)) because this is a great photo. I liked the photo in B&W. But, as RTA said, we also need more photos of Brazil. I am available to The Photographer to nominate great photos (and not bad) of Brazil that I think are great and very good. Forgive me! 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 15:57, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
And for prove that I'm not supporting any photo of Brazil without high quality, on 11 January, I will renominate the beautiful and great painting of Brazil (File:Leitura by Jose Ferraz de Almeida Júnior 1892.jpg) that, unfortunately, did not become FP and also help expand the collection of featured paintings of Commons. 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 17:45, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ArionEstar, do not lie: this nomination is a clear example of any crap material that you send/support to FP just because is a Brazilian subject. Even my one, at the time had a ridiculous huge problem, lost of information check between the reflex and the fruit, in this case I could fix, but I am here imagining how many of this will pass... -- RTA 22:59, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment "Street craftsman" is right, I will change it when this nomination is finished. Thanks ArionEstar :) --The_Photographer (talk) 19:37, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It's your opinion and I respect it, but what I wanted to show here is the work and not the person. Thanks for your comment. --The_Photographer (talk) 10:47, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Only works? Jee 11:06, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In your example you show, there are few elements in the composition. To clarify these doubts about when use B&W with HC, I invite you to read this nice book --The_Photographer (talk) 11:52, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm noway against B&W photography. Jee 12:19, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Strong oppose colour was very important here indeed, because I don't know what a type of work he is doing this type [1] or this one [2], if was the second case... Hell, was vital to have colours, and being in Olinda I could bet money that was the case! More problems, the photo shooter was not align with the subject, generating a sneak photo a-like, creating a disconnection between then. We could see the face with the work just going down, no excuses to that. In this position I can't see his work, I can't get what's going on, his hands are in a position that do not allow a clear vision, looks like more a masturbation scene then a hand crafting... I can't see the face, I can't see were this is happening, and this do not looks a street, for me is middle a "feira", were we have a lot of others artists doing their work... And will this sad felling? He is a f artist, celebrate his work!
About technical issues, part of this photo is blurred even with 1/200 s of exposition... a lot of graining and noisy areas and is kind of obvious ISO 640 (1/200 + 640 ISO????), and part of the right leg of the artist, how I will explain that, is merging with the floor, probably because the B&W choice, or lack of focus... Is not sharp enough also, not even one single area of the photo have that crispy feeling of a good photo... for THE Photographer, this things should be not even close to happen...
One observation about this voting, this photo would not received half of the support if personal issues was not in game, some here just vote because is a photo in Brazil (note, I'm Brazilian, and I think that we need more photos of Brasil in FP, but we need incentive better photographers to share their work, or buffer the skill of the locals, not just accepting any Brazilian crap), and others looks like more a support just because another one voted against, as we can see so many mistakes here that not even a QI this image should be!
-- RTA 12:38, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • No Colin, this is the exactly what you all need, raw true. A lot of images are passing by politics (ie. "U and I together" [above]), not by their quality + importance, and no, this is not hate, I do not have time, and emotion enough to that. You, Colin, put your emotions in your vote, just see your reaction against Alchmist, I just listed all the problems that you all ignored, for strange reasons...
This image do not exemplify the beautiful work that this artists does, and pass to the viewer a sad story, by a lack of skill and mistakes made, and you are applauding that "Dense atmosphere, well captured." [above], this is f terrible. This have the same weight of a sensationalist news "look the suffer, [I'm not suffering], look the sadness [I'm happy, really happy actually], look look, in Brazil they have to do their art at the street because they are too poor to have a place to work, [I just do here to better share my art]..." And this is the opposite of educational purpose that we have.
I'm done here, just one more sad they for me in this community, better days will come, better days will come... -- RTA 22:59, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Alchemist-hp, you confuse "other opinions" for prejudice and spite, neither of which are good here. RTA's comments are spiteful, particularly the "masturbation" comment. -- Colin (talk) 08:28, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
So if we do not agree with you, our opinion is prejudice and spite? And remains true after your talk, you just need stop to look the discussion, and start to see the picture. ;) -- RTA 09:09, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • You're right—I feel like my photos have usually a bit too much of contrast so I tuned it down this time. I can't upload a new variation right now as my internet is way too bad until another week (I'm even struggling to log in here). -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 00:52, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Scratch that, I've just managed to upload a more constrasted version! Let me know if it's working better. -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 10:12, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dear Sherlock Holmes wannabe, I'm not sure what you're trying to show off here with your doubtful arguments but this guy is a 100% authentic rice farmer. He wasn't working right now as the job was being split with others. Btw, I'm travelling only with a local, far away from other tourists—none of the Vietnameses that we meet on the road do speak English nor have any interest in lying to us. This leaves me with a very interesting critic, thank you. -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 00:52, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The tone of my previous reply is based on the fact that you're not criticizing my photo but a man that you've never met, that you don't know anything about, and that you're judging based on appearances with highly criticizable points (didn't anyone tell you to never judge people by their appearances?), and thus regardless of the experience that you might have with your own rice farmers encounters. This man has been incredibly kind to us, offered us many tips including a cool path to follow accross the rice fields (and buffalos), and even offered us to park our bicycles at his place for free, while inviting us for a drink. We, who spend most of our lives our ass sitting on a chair, really need to have more consideration for those living a much more difficult life. Next time you eat some rice that you probably waste because it's so cheap that you've put too much in your plate, think of all those men and women, like this ~70y old guy, who spend most of their life in those rice fields, when we probably wouldn't stand just one day of it, only to end up with a huge back pain and just enough money to buy a fashion shirt for less than $5 USD. Seriously, unless you're sure of what you're saying, these guys deserve all our respect and eternal thanks by default rather than doubting their lifestyle. -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 03:33, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is it allowed in FPC to extend an own opinion - even when it is not a supporting opinion - or should I better hide behind the usual "No WOW for me"? Beside that, I cannot see anything in my comment, that is disrespectful to your friend. Take a breath, scroll through my photos and you probably will notice, that I am pretty familiar with the life of people in Southeast Asia --CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 04:26, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't mind your oppose, many seems to boycott voting on my photos anyways so any vote is good! I just wished it was based on the photo itself rather than on the argument “I'm sure he's not a rice farmer”. And in my opinion, when you say about a man, who has undoubtedly been a rice farmer for all his life from what I know, that he's not one, then yes, I find that to be disrespectful. But I agree that I've been quite impulsive, as usual. -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 04:53, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Alright, I will be more precise: Your photo is not telling a story. You title the man as rice farmer, but this charming man has not the smell of a rice farmer. Title the photo "My driver in Vietnam" or "The lovely barkeeper of our hotel" it would always be the same. So what could you have done? Perhaps let him keep an attribute in his hand - a sickle or a bunch of rice seedlings - or show him among some bags of rice or inmiddle of his paddy. All would be ok, but this photo is not really special about a rice farmer. Or, as I said first: The atmosphere of this image is strange. --CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 05:06, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Fair enough! I wouldn't have been able to take such a picture since he had finished his morning shift. He was in his casual clothes, more or less overlooking the work of the ladies in the fields behind him. Thanks for the extra explanations. -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 05:13, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Christopher Crouzet, I can't add a vote now as it is too late. I would probably have supported the new version. I saw the old one when it was nominated and the face lacked contrast like it was under-exposed and had been recovered. So it was a bit "meh". The new one is better. I think the comment by CEphoto, Uwe Aranas was badly worded and can indeed read like he is doubting the authenticity of your claim. I see now what he is saying, and it is a valid point. -- Colin (talk) 10:01, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Vilnius Cathedral Chapel of Saint Casimir.
I'm living in Vilnius and this chapel is quite small and has narrow entrance. Taking it from the entrance (center) would make these side (and especially ceiling) decorations invisible and lower "WOW effect". That sarcophagus in the center is with the remains of Saint Casimir. The chapel has two paintings. Left-side painting shows scene when he returned to Vilnius in coffin after his death after some time. When people opened the coffin, they saw that his body is completely not disintegrated (one of his miracles). Right-one (pictured here) is somehow related with his ability to cure people (don't remember the whole story, but it is his another miracle). In my opinion, coffin and at least one of these paintings should both be visible in FP of this place. Picturing it from the chapel's angle is the best solution to capture both of them in one photo. Actually there is no other solution... Furthermore, this picture has brilliant lighting. At times it is quite dark here (depends on the weather outside). -- Pofka (talk) 14:50, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done Sharpness done something changed. --Famberhorst (talk) 17:15, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment A Tighter cut at the bottom could improve the picture (see the note suggestion), occupying more of the subject in the photo. Nice colours, a bit of blurred and lack of sharpness, but macro photo, so... and I had never heard about this lens before, it's good for you? -- RTA 05:07, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done Other crop.--Famberhorst (talk) 06:50, 14 February 2015 (UTC)  Comment macro lens satisfies me fine.--Famberhorst (talk) 06:50, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose, A lot of dust. And weird lightning specially in first two. -- RTA 16:48, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment Dear RTA, it is a natural object in close up. Natural objects aren't perfect and some "dust spots" are visible, but it is real dust on the shell, not caused by photography. I cleaned the shell before, but you have always some dust in the air and so is impossible to get a shell completely without dust - unless you work in a high-purity laboratory. On other shells (like rock snails (Muricidae)) you don't see dust at the surface, but this is caused by the different surface structure of the shell (in which the dust is not visible), not by the absence of dust. Also the surface is extremely smooth and reflective (please compare with other photos of cowries in the www). To verify this, please see [3] --Llez (talk) 22:07, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      PS: RTA, I'm glad that you only opposed and that you didn't replace my picture during the voting period by another, as you did some weeks ago (see Bad behaviour just to troll or lack of reading? [4])! --Llez (talk) 05:46, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      • Just a lot of excuses, as always, ad hominem you will not improve your photos, and if I can take this without a dust how you can't do? And this is a f collaborative community if you can't handle co-work, just put your photos at Flickr and we import from there, no one will properly remove dust spots, as you are not able.
The cut stills a crap one in the right of the first shell, the light stills not even, and this will not change by you attacking me...
If you do not know how to handle criticism, do not apply for FP... -- RTA 02:50, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
PS:Looking other photo of this shell, the light is away more weird that I thought as here, it's interesting see people in a wiki community avoiding learning, and keep doing same mistakes as before. But thanks for the shells.

  • Why are you yelling?
You have Adobe Photoshop CC, so you can easily bracketing/stacking photos see and achieve the DOF necessary, and then you can use your sharpest (all lens have a better f-stop, do you know what is it?) any time... it is the same technique to HDRI 2 in 1, and very close to panorama technique.
And mirror lock up will reduce camera shake, and with 15 EUR tripod this could be even more necessary...
No, this not the only mistake, you also cut the main arch, and the benches stills in a weird position.
The only problem I see is: We tried to help, and then you react as this, I have a cheap camera also, and more cheap lens actually, so I know that you can improve... -- RTA 16:41, 10 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not yelling, I'm underlining, however I do not have the function raises the mirror (Nikon D3200!), Then I took the bow and also the floor, I remind you that I do not have a wide angle, and then if there is little room not I can not help it. --LivioAndronico talk 17:22, 10 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This is a underline, anyway, after you focus, you can switch to "live mode" this will make your mirror rise up, and you will have the same effect. And yes, but, I can see half of a bench, maybe a step back, just guessing, I do not know the church, and with one more shot a beautiful panorama 2 min most, between take the extra shot and edit at PS.
One observation, this not a bad photo, I like the composition, the colours, the perspective, I do not know if you missed something in the overexposed window, but not seems the case, and to a church is a interest thing, looks god light, or something like that, but have technical issues that could be solved with small adjusts. -- RTA 11:38, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sunset side view of the Seljalandsfoss waterfall, Suðurland, Iceland. The waterfall of the river Seljalandsá drops 60 metres (200 ft) over the cliffs of the former coastline.

    • I know you feel that way generally. What aspect of it do you think is overprocessed? The strong micro-contrast is an unavoidable (as far as I know, anyway) side effect of Lightroom's tone mapping algorithms, but different scenes seem to be affected by it to different degrees. Sometimes I wish I could turn the effect down a bit, but I can't. I certainly don't go out of my way to overprocess it because I share your dislike for the overprocessed HDR look. I've just uploaded a new version - I've tried to minimise anything that you might take issue with - the red colour of the wood and the gilded gold are toned down slightly. I've sent the clarity slider into the negative (usually a bad idea!) to try to reduce the micro-contrast. I'm not sure if this is an improvement in your mind but after reflecting on the image, I see the changes as minor but a slight improvement. Diliff (talk) 17:14, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      • Sometimes only ;) (I insist). I don't really know how to describe it, but yes, might be a little too contrasty and saturated (this is what I'd tone down). Strangely this is more obvious on the thumbnail, but it looks quite nice when browsed at 100%. The very fine details of the (beautiful !) roodscreen scream HDR a little bit too much. Have you tried processing with only a single exposure and check at the difference? As sidenote, I can understand you can not fine tune your pipeline for each picture given your (huge! do you outsource? ;) ) ouput of pictures. But as we discussed, just nitpicking from me ! - Benh (talk) 17:44, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just showed the picture to Nicolas (so he knows a bit about HDR and stitching) and his first reaction was "C'est pas une photo !" (let you check your French lessons ;) ). So it's not only me. You guessed right, i like the single exposure one better overall. It doesn't seem to trade off that much compared to the HDR, and looks more photograph. Colin, Good to know. Last time (10 years ago?) I played with MediaWiki, they provided interface to ImageMagick's conv, and if I remember right, the downsampling was done from the original picture and cached somewhere. Don't remember they played with sharpening and all! - Benh (talk) 21:15, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • There will always be 'purists' out there who expect a photo to have a particular look. It's still a photo as far as I'm concerned. :-) Diliff (talk) 22:13, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      • I beg to differ. It's not about particular look, it's about something is out of place when looking at an overprocessed picture (like my brain anticipate how reality should like and the picture doesn't match that). To me HDR is for compensating shortcoming of a sensor's dynamic range, not to necessarily recover ALL highlights and shadows to the point reality is broken and it doesn't match any more what the eye saw then. But yes, this one is still (more than) acceptable as a photo. Otherwise, I would happily oppose ;-). - Benh (talk) 23:11, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        • My point was that images from a DSLR frequently don't resemble what a human eye sees either, but many people are familiar with this look and expect photography to look like it, just as many people don't like fisheye or other uncommon projections because it represents a scene in an unexpected way, even though there's nothing inherently more 'correct' about rectilinear. Our eyes don't see a scene in true rectilinear projection but because we scan a scene in small areas at a time, our brain builds up a picture that approximates rectilinear. I agree with you about how HDR should be used and that's also how I try to use it. I never tried to render highlights and shadows as midtones. Dark things are still dark, bright things are still bright, but our eyes do generally see most detail in shadows and highlights so it makes sense to render them viewable at the extreme shadows and highlights of the image. I'm not trying to argue that HDR is perfect or that my use of HDR here is perfect, only that it can represent reality reasonably faithfully (when it's not done badly - full of haloes, oversaturated colours and lacking contrast). Diliff (talk) 11:53, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
          • It is interesting that the HDR image is being compared with the single-exposure image as though the latter might be more faithful or the former a deviance from reality. The "looks (or doesn't look) like a photograph" comment says more about expectations than what matters does it not? An artist can choose his interpretation of reality so why not a photographer? While it is useful, if one is discussing how to make an image, to compare different exposures and processing techniques, the comparison of the two falls into a similar mistake as to compare b&w with colour and assume the only faithful transition from colour to b&w is desaturation. My books on b&w photography comment that we are less tolerant of gross alternations of colour images than of b&w images, partly because we have already accepted the latter's disconnect with what the eye sees. But colour has a history too of a conscious choice for one interpretation such as Kodachrome vs Fuji Velvia. There are those who claim to appreciate "Minolta colours" or "Zeiss micro contrast" yet software now lets us fiddle in ways no glass engineer could. What Lightroom Camera Calibration Preset you use can have a marked change on the contrast and colours. The look of this scene will also change dramatically depending on the daylight (strength, temperature, angle) and any artificial lighting. Without being there, it is hard to judge and I don't feel a single-exposure represents anything much more than what Adobe's Lightroom engineers feel is a pleasing starting point for the average photo. That said, there's always the temptation to bring out detail in shadows that really should remain hidden or to tone down the full glare of a sunlit window. Sometimes were are tempted to judge an image by "how I'd have taken/processed it" rather than simply weigh up its strengths and weaknesses for what it is. -- Colin (talk) 12:40, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
            • Colin this left me speechless as I had to decipher first. I won't go into this many considerations, I lack knowledge, no one cares, and anyways my point was just that to me (and at least to my friend) the picture ressembles a painting more than a photo on the thumbnails, and in some of the finest parts of the roodscreen, hence my comments. Yes where an image ends looking like a photo is debatable. As for me any BW, velvia film and whatever look like photo. Some badly overdone HDR look like computer generated and because I did and saw many of them I can tell the symptoms quickly. But maybe I was educated like that and it's fine with others. - Benh (talk) 22:22, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
              • I don't want to distract you from this discussion with Colin, but do you see any improvement in the tonality of the rood screen detail now? I've uploaded a number of updates to it that try to tone down the microcontrast, the initial issue that we both agreed was less than ideal. Diliff (talk) 23:41, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Where did I say that I asked her to not laugh? I never dictate how people should pose in front of my camera. I hate every single modelling photos, I'm all in to capture a true expression. She, and she alone, decided to do it this way. Too bad that you didn't vote on the photo that I nominated of her laughing then. -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 05:58, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm sorry, that seemed to be implied by "she tried her best to stop laughing for the photo"—it sounded like she did so at your behest. When did you nominate the one of her laughing? I might have been away for a while. Daniel Case (talk) 20:29, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • My friend asked her for the name, so we're pretty sure it's bánh chưng and I remember the firmer consistency in comparison to bánh giò—she just make them in a different shape. I've actually never seen any bánh giò in Đà Nẵng? (But I've tried them 1 week ago in Cần Thơ, delicious!). Might not be the best reason to oppose the photo though :) -- Christopher Crouzet (talk) 00:56, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
