Why did you do that? There were only supports for the original version. norro 23:05, 18 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I was being bold. Do you think one should refrain from improving a picture when it is a featured picture candidate? How about once it becomes a featured picture? Dbenbenn 13:42, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I strongly prefer the original version (which I voted for). --Avatar 00:38, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I think, it's better to upload a second version, if the picture is a candidate. Improving is always a matter of taste. Kind regards, norro 09:42, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Selfnomination Andreas Tille 20:55, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I just adjusted the darkness in the direction suggested by Quasipalm. My version is not as bright as the suggestion and I also did not cropped the image because I wanted to leave some space to look at for the fox. Please tell me whether you like this change or if I should change more in the "Quasipalm"-direction. Andreas Tille 20:16, 26 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

One more change: On a secon thought I agree with Quasipalm about the cropping. I now cropped the original PNG at the exact same place as Quasipalm and left my imporeesion of the lightning (it was a cloudy day and thus I regard this version as realistic).

Thanks for your engagement. I'm sitting now behind my laptop which has a more flat display and I see what you mean. The colors seemed natural to me on my CRT desktop screen. I think I should try to adjust the colors from the original PNG file to reduce compression loss. I'll do this today evening. Andreas Tille 09:24, 26 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The CRT can not handle fine vertical lines like the hairs on the fox. Try this test image on your monitors.

I'm moving my support back to the first image -- now updated. I used auto-levels in PS for this one, and now I believe that the contrast was too high. I hope other voters can take in to account that the first image was updated and they should move their vote their if they wish. --Quasipalm 19:38, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Comment This picture was nominated in 2005 by norro but didn't get promoted. I really can't understand why - that's why i try it again now. This picture says more than thousand words.

I also agree with you :) A cropped upper part of a head is nothing unusual...a often used composition element. Normally I don't like centered main objects but here it really fits. It somehow represents to me "Look! This is how it is here." --AngMoKio 20:46, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support The theme is captured in an impressive way, while not being depicted as a cliché. I don't mind the cropped head, the focus is on the ball. --Tsui 19:44, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, whether it is special in general I can not say, but while looking at Category:Geysers I would say it is the only one showing the bubble before the fountain erupts which makes it at least special in the set of WikiMedia. Andreas Tille 05:14, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I meant in terms of image quality. The actual subject may be good, but it's slightly out of focus, and not what you might call aestheticly pleasing --fir0002 06:25, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Are you sure that it is out of focus? IMHO foregrund and background are sharp. The unsharpness is caused by the motion of the buble which was intended. For the aesthetic I can not comment because it is personal taste. The only thing I can say that I uploaded the image to WikiMedia because I've got a request from people who wanted to publish it in a newspaper. Andreas Tille 09:29, 31 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I would be oppose to this picture's being featured for two reasons :
- I don't think the logo of « Paris 2012 » (application for the olympic games) is the purpose of the photograph, and I'd prefer a pic when nothing is hung to the tower
- I don't like the contrast ; however the composition is great ; seeing completely the Invalides under the first floor can be very difficult.Pabix &; 18:31, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)

- You don't like the white background, but its good enough for the credit card photo media:Credit-cards.jpg you supported? ADSR6581 13:56, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  - I know I'm not beeing very consistant :-( Commenting photos I guess is very subjective and english is not my first language so I apologize if my comments sometimes sounds a bit rough. In this case its hard to explain why I opposed this pic and supported the pic of the creditcards - I think it has something to do with mixing styles. The old keyboard looks a bit funny in my eyes with the shining white modern looking background. I hope this explanation makes just a little sense - I'm not commenting the photos with the goal to annoy anyone or hurt anyones feelings. Regards Malene Thyssen 19:05, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    - I understand what you are saying, but opposing just because of a white background is tenuous at best. What colour should it be? All the pictures of objects (old computers mainly) I take have white backgrounds. This is so it can be used without a thumbnail box around it. For example: [2] I also do it because it makes the picture look more professional. If I had left the original background, it wouldn't have even got nominated... If you had a technical problem with the picture, then fair enough, but because it has a white background... Seems a little unreasonable to me. ADSR6581 20:07, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
      - I understand that taking photos of computerparts must be a challenge - I know I wouldn't be as succesfull as you in that matter! And in most cases I agree with you about the white backgound. This photo is not bad, it's just not exceptionally good in my eyes (and I think features pictures should be that). But maybee I have misunderstood the requirements to featured pictures candidates and judge too hard? Regards Malene Thyssen 20:50, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I think the parameters of what is a good picture needs to be discussed in some depth, but that should be saved for the discussion page. In relation to my picture, I know it isn't the best. It was the best I could do without a digital SLR camera. Personally, I feel you have a been a bit hard, but I'm sure people have thought that about some of my votes too. :-) ADSR6581 21:08, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I guess it's always difficult to accept when other people judge ones artistic work - especially when the judgement is a bit harsh (I know that from own experience ;-). I'll try to be not quite so meticulous in the future :-) Regards Malene Thyssen 22:09, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

- Okay... May I ask as to why it is "too dull"? ADSR6581 17:46, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

If you want detail, fine. It's a very boring, uninteresting subject. The focus is out, the lighting isn't strong enough, and whilest I appreciate it is a difficult thing to take a good picture of, it is just not FP worthy as is. I also think for something of this colour, a plain background possibly isn't the best option. --Erin (talk) 18:05, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

"very boring and uninteresting subject." Ouch!!! In your ever so "humble" opinion of course... ADSR6581 20:51, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Isn't that what this whole voting business is all about? Our opinions? I was just being honest about mine. --Erin (talk) 21:58, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yes of course, but what are we all voting for? Is right that we should vote positively about things we are interested in, and negatively if the subject is of no interest to the voter? I think this place is more featured *content* cadidates, rather featured *pictures* sometimes... <steps off soapbox> ;-) ADSR6581 22:19, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Oppose: Looks like a really cool car but two major problems. 1) I dont think thats the best angle to take the picture of this car, should be taken from either front or with a little bit of top(camera above the car), cant see any part of the convertible interior. 2) The white background makes it look surreal, but not in a good way, somehow the back ground is not working for me.

- The people that should think twice before voting are the people who oppose saying nothing. Art means everything: composition, colours, placement of the object, etc. It is a very valid argument that you should respect. Plus, artful is a picture that you want to look twice, and get to see more, this you see once, and you don't want to see it again, because it is nothing special, that is, it isn't art. -PedroPVZ 01:13, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
