Suleymaniye Mosque Istanbul Turkey
  •  Info created by ggia - uploaded by ggia - nominated by ggia -- Ggia (talk) 17:11, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I don't like IMC sign in the right bottom.. but it is not my fault that it is inside this photo ;) . While trying to crop over the IMC sign.. I found that the image seems too tighten cropped. This image has high EV not only because the mosque important.. and but also the surrounding social complex (buildings around the mosque) which is called Külliye in the ottoman architecture. -- Ggia (talk) 17:11, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose OK, although I won't ack it, I'm certainly biased because I nominated a similar shot of mine... This one has good quality, nice lighting, and I trust you on the encyclopedic point. But those leafless trees give a cold atmosphere to that picture. I'm not so keen on the composition either, with much more room given to the sky than the rest. - Benh (talk) 21:31, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Info the date of the image is 25 December, and it is winter time.. so the trees are leafless.. in the composition I tried to avoid a centered composition.. so some part of the panorama to the left side has been cropped (in order the main subject - the mosque not to be in the center). Concerning the sky, I don't believe that it has too much sky for the composition not looking like vertically-centered aligned.. but if people don't like so much sky.. it is very easy technically to have a new crop with a little less sky.

  •  Info - I'm going to photoshop out the IMC sign. It's really irritating. --Claritas (talk) 14:59, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment I agree with you.. I tried to find an angle to make the photo without without this annoying sign.. but I didn't succeed. I don't know how to make this clone-job/patch.. it seems difficult to clone the texture behind. Ggia (talk) 15:09, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It is very difficult. I'll upload my attempt when it's done. --Claritas (talk) 20:20, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Correction: it is impossible - don't wait for me. --Claritas (talk) 20:28, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
