Consensual review[edit]

  • Nomination Monument to Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sisi), in the Volksgarten close to the Hofburg imperial palace in Vienna. --Martin Falbisoner 12:59, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
  •  Comment please reprocess it if possible, its badly overexposed. --Hubertl 20:57, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  • {{o}}, I´m sorry, but obviously, this scenery is, because of the Burghtheater in the background, not captureable at this daytime without using HDR. I send it to CR for additional opinions. --Hubertl 14:47, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
  •  Comment fair enough! I'll give it another try - I've redone the picture and the current version is imo much better than my first update. Please have another look, @Hubertl et al. Thanks --Martin Falbisoner 15:43, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
  • Changed to  Support with the last result. BTW, it´s a great motif, this Volksgarten, Martin. I spent days there, because it´s just a short distance from were I live. And I learned a lot, how to manage those kind of motifs. --Hubertl 06:14, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
  •  Support - Much improved from the first version and quite good. -- Ikan Kekek 09:06, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
Total: 2 support (excluding the nominator), 0 oppose → Promoted   --Hubertl 05:19, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

  • Nomination Cracow Dance Theatre in the show "Estra & Andro" at 29. ULICA – The International Festival of Street Theatres in Kraków --Jakubhal 21:44, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Oppose Nice action shot sharp and all, but all the cut things on the right side as opposed to the extra space on the left really spoil the picture. I doubt very much that this is salvageble since any cropping would cut off other things. Pity. --W.carter 08:52, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
  •  Support I disagree, don't see any problem with the composition --Moroder 18:22, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
  •  Oppose After thinking about it for a while, I'm coming down on the side of W.carter with a weak oppose vote. The shot is difficult given the movement, but the dancer on the right is cut tightly as well as being out of focus. It's a shame given the quality of the rest of it, so I can only echo the first reviewer: pity.--Peulle 08:53, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Face of the main person in the center of the image out of focus. Sorry, I like the composition very much, colors and lighting are good and the action is really great captured. But the point of sharpness is somewhat random. Pity. --Smial 09:49, 26 September 2016 (UTC) Ps: Such scenes sometimes demand surprisingly high ISO settings to get short exposure times.
  • Mild  Support - You folks are really tough customers on this one! Looking at this not at full size but a full-page size on my monitor, it's a very good composition that really captures the action and sense of motion well. I, too, wish the blonde dancer weren't cropped at the right, but I think this picture captures the essence of the dance quite well enough to merit being featured. -- Ikan Kekek 08:18, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
  • Well, you are the one who started the "Are QIC standards high enough?" thread on the QIC talk page... ;-) I think that the same comments that are made here, would pop up again if it was ever nominated as an FPC. cart-Talk 08:52, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
  •  Comment - Yes, I did, but I seem to have discovered that the answer is that the standards on quality are lower here. I would not vote to feature this picture. -- Ikan Kekek 08:57, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
