  • Ok, I think that makes sense (although the big arrow pointing to ">5mm" initially makes me think the resulting split raindrops are bigger than 5mm, but I see now it describes what happens to >5mm drops ;-) --Tony Wills (talk) 22:13, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

  •  Oppose Hmmm? 9.9% of the image is pure white! Lycaon 18:48, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
     Comment White, ok, but the focus of this image is definately on the ear of this plant - this is no panorama image or landscape showing media file. The fractional white sky emphasises the foreground - in my view. --High Contrast 19:48, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

  • Decline
  •  Support This one's ok. People's faces are usually more interesting than their backsides. --Iotatau 10:55, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
  •  Comment: No. Photographs of people from behind are candid shots. Photographs showing faces are people posing and showing off for photophers. With the limitations entailed by privacy considerations, the backsides are in fact more interesting. Rama 11:40, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

File:Moshi panorama.jpg[edit]

  • Nomination Moshi panorama --Muhammad Mahdi Karim 20:11, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Support A nice panorama — too bad it's so small... I'm not sure if a height of 870px is considered to be enough for QI. --Till.niermann 18:01, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
    • Guidelines suggest "Panoramic images need to have a minimum height of 800px" so quite adequate for QI guidelines. An attractive panorama, but there are too many over exposed white walls. If it was just some of the clouds then I would consider it, but as detail on many white house walls is lost too, I can not support it. --Tony Wills (talk) 10:49, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

For an easy garden plant, a species identification is not too much asked. Lycaon 18:09, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

  • Promotion
  •  Support Instructive, good focus on subject. --Iotatau 22:11, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
  •  Oppose i disagree. the composition is plain simple the image has few contrast- would like another opinions in this one-LadyofHats 08:26, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
  • LOL. when I take a picture with nice composition it's rejected because you can't see the nest well enough, when the nest is the only subject and much larger people complain the composition is boring. I'm starting to think people just don't like turtle nests ... --Ianare 03:52, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Oh I do love turtle nests, my only opinion is that the sand is very bad thing to take an image of, becouse of the few contrast the image lacks dimension. and everything is centered. you dont need to make a strange angle to have a good composition. i think by example with a side light the sand would have offered a richer surface.-LadyofHats 08:16, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Support fine for me. –Juliancolton | Talk 04:12, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Support I don't think this has FP quality, but we are talking here about QI quality - and this picture meets most of the requirements IMO: sharpness, DOF, colours, straightforward but effective composition, encyclopedic value. Only the contrast is a weak point: about that I agree with LadyofHats -- MJJR 21:00, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

    One typo left, "divition" at left border. --Iotatau 06:10, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
    actually i had to change a great part of it. becouse of soe feedback from wikipedia. but it should be aright now. including the typo-LadyofHats 08:20, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
    A few comments, first typo, should say "Transform into amastigotes", second "amastigotes infect other cells or are phagocytosed" would be better as "amastigotes infect new macrophages", third only procyclic promastigotes replicate as they differentiate into non-replicative metacyclic promastigotes before migrating into the pharanyx, fourth the importance of granulocyte invasion versus macrophage invasion is still controversial so I'd recommend mentioning that the metacyclics might simply invade macrophages upon entry into the mammalian host. TimVickers 21:44, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
  • i will change it acording to the sugestions and then nominate it again.-LadyofHats 08:17, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

    My display is bright enough. Today I am sitting in front of a different PC and it still is too dark. What part of "too dark" don't you understand? Of course the overall brightness is ok, but the main subject is the building and this is IMHO too dark. Not dark enough to strictly oppose, but too dark to support it.
    Another issue, albeit only a slight issue is the artificial sharpening, at least it looks to me as if it has been sharpened. A bit over the top IMHO, but acceptable. -- H005 15:41, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Neutral (sharpness is ok on this one, but suboptimal lighting) I guess it's "too dark" due to unfortunate weather on location. Anyway, I don't know why this image is in the discussion section. It has been declined after review from a user and there hasn't been any veto from any other reviewer. So it's declined. Please respect the QI procedure. And Eva, by the way, please don't always tell people that they have bad LCD screens. I'm using a color calibrated NEC SpectraView - and see the same. --Afrank99 17:29, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

I don't think it's relevant for QI whether there aren't any better pictures, that argument is only valid for COM:VI. The sharpness of the face is excellent, just the body isn't. But my oppose is only weak, if Mbdortmund or others support it, ok. -- H005 12:36, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Can you please explain to me what do you mean with diffuse light ? Is it underexposed or overexposed ? Is direct sunlight a quality feature ? Available light and to shadow my subjects is part of my photographic style/preference. Richard Bartz 14:38, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Support For me it's a "portrait", as the file name says, and body sharpness is not important. Overcast light and no sun help to keep the dynamic range in check. I am not a fan of the fence in the background but overall I consider it to be a QI. --Iotatau 17:27, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

  •  Oppose The camera has been moved during exposure, the image of the lightnings on the left and on the right (and of the buildings) is doubled. --Eusebius 11:17, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Comment This one was pretty close and violent, so it is possible that the camera shaked. But if the double lightnings would be caused by the camera move, everything would be doubled, isn't? Yann 00:09, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Comment If you look to the lightening on the left side and right sides, it's doubled as well. That can't be the camera moving, it would smear, not double. My guess is it's caused by reflection. --Calibas 02:17, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Comment If you look at the building, you see two images as well, a strong one, and a hollow one (due to a camera vertical move of the camera), and this is not reflection. Not every lightning is doubled because exposure time is 30s and lightnings don't last for 30s. The lightning on the left, for instance, had one flash before the move and one flash after the move, but all the flashes of the centre lightning occured either before or after the move. --Eusebius 07:19, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

 I withdraw my nomination Probably you are right. Yann 13:48, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

File:Karadjordje Belgrade.jpg[edit]

  • Nomination Karađorđe Petrović monument in Belgrade, Serbia --MRB 16:18, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Promotion Nice photography, but does not illustrate/document the subject very well. (or take it this way: main subject heavily underexposed) --Afrank99 08:48, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Support I like it. --Mbdortmund 22:08, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Support Underexposure is obviously an artistic selection here. It makes the image look much more menacing and mysterious, especially combined with the overcast sky. The framing of ground and sky makes excellent use of the rule of thirds. A casual viewer might even confuse the statue for a living person. Really like this photo. --Ferengi (talk) 06:58, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

  •  Oppose Oversaturated, see green channel. --Eusebius 10:41, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
    •  Info The saturation has not been changed by postprocessing, the grass really was so green up there. See what happens to the trees if you take out saturation. -- H005 22:11, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Support I really like this photo, so I took the liberty of reducing the saturation in the grass area (overall reduction of the green channel made the trees look dull). Please re-evaluate. --Ferengi 06:47, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Comment Honestly, I can't find again the reason why I first opposed, sorry, it must have been a mistake. --Eusebius (talk) 07:25, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
