Motor ship Georg Büchner immobilized in the Stadthafen (city port) of Rostock.
corrected WB, with the raw-file it would be better i think, cause the burned part at the ship and the black area in the front are now more visible. rework out of original dng file. Thanks to Grand Duc for providing it.

* Support  Oppose--Miguel Bugallo 00:21, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I prefer the image with corrected WB. Now I don't like this image, I like the other. As Leviathan1983--Miguel Bugallo 01:36, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose It's a fine picture, sodium vapor against stormy night sky, but I'm just not sure the frame has been used to its fullest potential. There's a lot of dead space, and an incredible amount of emphasis on the reflection. I would almost rather see the ship taken from starboard, even if that means you have to boat out there to get it, and fill the frame with more ship, less sky and water. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 01:44, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support excellent composition --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 11:11, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment I like the image, but I think it should be cropped using the same 2:3 ratio. (see image annotation) The empty space on the left can be removed and the ship can be off-centred. --Jovian Eye talk 12:23, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support --Doucus (talk)
  •  Oppose the WB is totally off, the composition with that current crop isn't excellent imo. See my edited version. --mathias K 13:15, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Overly restrictive license construction going against the spirit of Commons. W.S. 15:29, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You're right: The license seems not to allow the commercial use--Miguel Bugallo 01:42, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment This site and large areas of Rostock are illuminated by night with yellowish street lamps, sodium-vapor lamps, I think. Is it wise, then, to alter the colour rendering to get an impression of bright white light on scene? I recall exactly this yellowish hue of the location as depicted when I took the photograph. The edited version could not be seen as such in reality, IMO. As for the licensing theme... Well, what is the "spirit of Commons"? This file is free (due to the GDFL 1.2), Commons:Reusing content outside Wikimedia explains the reusing of GDFL-licensed material before dealing with the CC, so there is nothing against any "spirit of Commons", here. Regards, Grand-Duc (talk) 20:02, 2 July 2011 (UTC) PS. Mathias, you'll get soon my DNG raw via Wikimail.[reply]
  •  Comment I've uploaded a new version with the corrected WB. Thanks again for the original dng file. It's a hard decision with the colours at such a situation like this. For me who don't knew the lighting there, it's just a wrong WB. Even if the lighting situation is more like your picture, the colours are not like this in reallity. For my taste i prefer the corrected colours, or a version between yours and mine, but the nominating one is to heavy for my taste. Regards mathias K 11:33, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
