  •  Support A high quality valued photo. -- The Egyptian Liberal (talk) 00:01, 29 February 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment -- I don't think that the documental value mitigates the terrible image quality. The photograph is overexposed, there are strange concentric artifacts on the sky, vigneting, dust spots and the geometric distortion is excessive. How could it be possible to obtaing this result with such a good camera? Part of the problem is the automatic exposure choice but it doesn't explain everything. Sorry.

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: because of very poor image quality -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 00:20, 29 February 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply] Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support.

  •  Comment -- could you explain a bit more?
    • Sure. As Carschten already mentioned the problem are the compression artifacts. Not only in the background, where they appear like small geometric figures "invented" by the compression algorithm but also in the subject, where they affect the detail and sharpness. Always choose the maximum possible resolution and image quality, especially when using compact cameras with small sensors. Please take a look at the present featured pictures of insect (and butterflies) in our galleries to have a idea of what kind of quality is required.

Actually, I haven't manipulated the colors that much. I have dropped some saturation, but the yellowish clouds are probably caused by lower exposure for the upper sky.

  •  Support Very nice work but why the doubling in file size? Saffron Blaze (talk) 23:26, 29 February 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose – Certainly a quality picture, but I'm sorry, I must oppose this one (for now) for several reasons. In some sections, the cleanup of dirt, streaks, etc. has only replaced dark smudges with light ones (especially around the signature). There is also a heavy brown discoloration in the third archway from the left, and it snakes a path through the center of the image. Most importantly, however, the paper tone of the foreground does not carry through the rest of the image. On close examination, there is widespread color variance in the blacks – they are warm in some areas, cool in others. This yields faint but perceptible tints of blue, green and pink, all of which will be much more pronounced when the image is printed. SteveStrummer (talk) 01:20, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Neutral The picture looks quite dark but I guess it is not irreparable. The picture could be brightened a little (perhaps by adjusting exposure in Photoshop or Camera Raw or similar). However, overexposure on the chimneys should be avoided meanwhile so they could be masked out or something. --Ximonic (talk) 13:46, 28 February 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment The thumbnail looks dark but in full resolution it is OK, I think. The sky is darker than a regular blue sky, because it was heavily clouded that day. The picture was taken just after sunrise when the sun was still below the clouds in the back (left hand side) of the photographer and illuminated the foreground and the plant, which both are not dark if you look at the image in full resolution. Concerning colour saturation: It's a tone-mapped HDR of a colourful plant. There is slight emphasis on the colours, but not far away from natural. -- Norbert Nagel (talk) 18:48, 28 February 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Lamentablemente las condiciones atmosféricas cuando tomaste la foto no eran muy buenas para fotografiar, con escasa luz en ciertas zonas y algunas partes muy brilantes en las nubes. Tampoco se aprecia el verde de las montañas por la poca luz: la imágen se ve muy azul.

  •  Oppose – Pleasing to the modern eye, but not an accurate representation of the original art. Healy was a classically-trained draftsman who painted in traditional academic style. In this version the shadow areas are filled to maximum density, obscuring all shape and detail in the clothes and losing the separation between figure and background – certainly not Healy's style.

  •  Oppose I might have missed something, but this image is on turismo website, which does not seem to me to be associated with cultura.gov.br, the flickr user listed as the source on Commons. Was it accidentally uploaded to flickr with the wrong licence? Another complication is that turismo appears to be giving the credit to Pedro França/Minc/Flickr, and it seems to me that no one with this name on flickr is currently showing this image. The girl was photographed with a Nikon D 700, a different camera to the rest of the flickr user's photographs, a sign of copyright laundering. If this does not have a creative commons licence, then this image should be deleted from Commons. Snowmanradio (talk) 20:34, 8 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The original Mantra-Rock Dance promotional poster
  • It's the only existing artifact for a landmark event of the hippie era, the Mantra-Rock Dance, held in 1967 in San Francisco. The image falls under Artworks, illustrations, and historical documents, and qualifies for FP on all four eligibility counts (even though any one of them should suffice) as:
  • notable in its own right,, being the only remaining relic of the historic event;
  • of (arguably) high artistic merit, being a graphic sample of psychedelic art of the time a-la Stanley Mouse;
  • of high historic merit, bearing witness to the involvement of some iconic counterculture figures like Allen Ginsberg and Janis Joplin with Indian spirituality;
  • of high illustrative merit, obviously.
The image is already a FP and POTD on EnWiki, so why not on Commons? Regards,Cinosaur (talk) 14:55, 7 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

And finally, per Yuriy75. --Paolo Costa (talk) 16:56, 8 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Oppose 1) per Paolo Costa (several disturbing elements in the picture), 2) the blue veil somehow does not impress me in this case (there are many other blue hour pictures with a much better mood, compare e.g. to this one, the Irons Museum is better as well), and finally 3) unlike QI, FP candidates shall have a minimal notability - a simple (if not to say: ugly) apartment building fails to provide enough educational value for an "outstanding" picture. Therefore, the general conclusion: QI yes, FP no. - A.Savin 20:39, 9 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose per Alchemist. Try to measure from the cornice and you'll notice a slight tilt to the right. I think you can remove the distracting corners on the left and right. You might want to use the {{Retouched picture}} to indicate your changes. That way people will know how your edit differs from reality. Some extra sharpness would be nice as well.

  •  QuestionHi Tomer and Katarighe, thanks a lot for your comments. Because this is the first time I've nominated a picture for featured status, I might need some help. Is there any way to improve the photo? What I like about this shot is the three-dimensionality and yet almost abstract way how the leaves fill the picture (and I don't mind the slight asymmetry) and also its stunning tonality. Is there a way to frame the current content differently? (e.g. through cropping) --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 17:45, 8 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • I'm afraid that with the current content it won't be possible to frame it better. What I dislike about the framing is that all the leafs are cut-off, cropping can't change that. Regards, Tomer T (talk) 18:17, 8 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

US film poster for Queen Christina
  • I'm certainly working on it, but sadly my connection is not as fast as I'd like it to be, so it takes a long time (from my experience, about 80% of pre-1973 film posters have copyright notices on them, and I don't have access to the renewals archive to check if those are PD). Pre 1940 posters are more likely to be free, but most major studios (except MGM) seem to have figured out their need for a copyright notice around 1935. Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:10, 12 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Support while i agree that the poster composition is not top notch, its still an historic document with a major star, and even its relatively poor composition is now part of its charm. I would oppose less notable stars/movies posters if poorly done, but only as we get more than a smidgen of PD images in the category.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 03:19, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Gavialis gangeticus in Prague
 weak oppose Per others--Miguel Bugallo 00:57, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
It depends on the light conditions, I took the picture inside the pavilion. Though the light of fluorescent lamps appeared clear white to me, there are several green plants around that may change the ambient color. I uploaded the picture as it came from my camera and it was even more green compared to this adjusted version. I think there is nothing like "real colors" in digital photography. They looked like this in my eyes. --Egg (talk) 16:58, 11 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Looking at the teeth, those in the back row are more white compared to the green in the front row. That suggests there is an artificial green light installed in the crocodile exposition, hidden to the eyes of visitors. But I don't think it makes the picture worse. On the contrary, the light was chosen by the zoo staff because it looks good. --Egg (talk) 16:59, 13 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose Ehmm yes... the green teeth is not very normal. But I also dislike composition, the distracting background, the badly cropped lower crocodile. I did not oppose because the majority obviously liked it but, I think the green teeth and general weird color is truly a must oppose. --Paolo Costa (talk) 15:19, 14 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • I apologize for saying colors were wrong because of the green teeth; I checked again the full res version. Green teeth are only in one zone. The teeth in the back row are very white, WB seems completely fine now. Must have been some reflection of vegetation or lights in the zoo on the front teeth. I remove my negative vote. It is a wonderful animal... I still don't like the crop, and comparing to other gavials in the article, the color seems still weird, I can't be sure, so:  Neutral.--Paolo Costa (talk) 17:54, 16 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Comment I see most pictures of this subject in water are green at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gharial ; so agree with the contributor's opinion that "there are several green plants around that may change the ambient color". Green subjects only reflect that part of the light so a white tooth may looks green. I have lot of similar results. If subject required a greeny environment like plants and water ferns (not green lights) we can't put it in a concrete tank to take photos! -- Jkadavoor (talk) 05:41, 16 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Comment I think Jkadavoor makes a good point. There are several examples of this species being quite green especialy in captivity. The teeth issue is a bit of a red herring in that only a few teeth on the top row are picking up some ambient light (reflection off the water perhaps?). Nobody would be decieved by this image and it is very captivating. Saffron Blaze (talk) 18:33, 16 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    • I understand and agree. But my philosphy with the crop question is, within a possible range of crop (very subjective, I know), to always choose the largest one. This for two reasons : I like to see the subject breathing in its environment and, I like to leave the choice to the eventual user to crop the picture if he wants to, and the way he whiches (the licence gives the freedom for this). My pictures are often used inside and outside Wikimedia projects. For a strict illustration of the species, a tight crop is perfect, but pictures can be used in different ways and I like to foresee this. --Cephas (talk) 17:15, 10 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose Pictures of people are usually very interesting and this is not an exception either. The picture emphasizes there has to be a story behind the person and that is good. However, the focus seems to be mainly on the carrying and arm while the face is comparably unsharp. Atleast I'd like the face to be the most sharp part in the picture and that is what I expect. I would also like if the picture had been taken from a little lower. I'm not sure what to think about the shade on face while the rest of this person seem to be in quite good a light. --Ximonic (talk) 14:46, 15 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Nothing is wrong with it. It is just not an optimal crop imo, as it should be for a FP. As for the branches, sometimes third agents like a branch, a lamp post, trash, etc. can be disturbing... it may not be the photographer's fault and they might be unavoidable. Still it makes the picture not featurable.

    • There used to be a rule downsampled images were not eligible for FP, since everyone would try to use Commons to upload mid or low-sized images and then try to sell high-res versions or something like that. Only full-size versions should be nominated for FP. This one has the tag because the robot recognizes it as a downsampled image, since it is a stitched panorama and has been cropped and resized while stitching. I think the tag is not taken into consideration anymore, but I'm not sure. --Paolo Costa (talk) 05:30, 23 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Oppose I know that it's not simple to get high-quality architecture pics by night. This one has almost no noise and that is a good result already. However, there are other issues: the non-symmetrical view as well as the composition with the fountain in big parts of the foreground is not very impressive, and additionally the part of the facade with the colonnade seems overexposed / blown-out in the lighting. At the very left part, some unpleasant scaffolds are visible. Maybe it's better to wait till the restauration is over? - A.Savin 19:05, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yellow Pansy (Junonia hierta)
  •  Info created, uploaded, and nominated by Jkadavoor -- Jkadavoor (talk) 05:59, 20 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  •  Support The Yellow Pansy (Junonia hierta) is a species of nymphalid butterfly usually seen in open scrub and grassland habitats. I found her perched on a bunch of fallen leaves, absorbing the heat of morning rays; so here also the camera was on the ground and I'm laying behind. :) -- Jkadavoor (talk) 05:59, 20 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

    •  Comment Yes; but she was really in need for warm lights and that is the only reason she perched there. The background is unfocused rotten leaves; these fearful creatures will perch only where they can blend with the environment. I'm ready to withdraw but like to hear more opinions, please. -- Jkadavoor (talk) 08:04, 21 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
      • I share Carschten's thoughts too. Light was not ideal to illustrate the subject in this picture. I like the background composition and angle, but not the lighting. Maybe a very gentle flash could have helped a bit. --Paolo Costa (talk) 13:40, 21 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  •  Comment I'm uncomfortable with some aspects of the pic. The "source" website only contains a thumbnail and the "larger version" link points to an image that is both slightly smaller than the one here, higher contrast, noisier, brighter and a bit more detail -- but with more noise. Enlarging that one shows they clearly have the same source pic in common. Has someone darkened, reduced the contrast and de-noised the original? It is still a bit noisy despite the apparently heavy reduction. I'm also uncomfortable with the public domain claim because the photographer isn't identified -- it could have been taken by a professional photographer. It is an interesting pic but doesn't really contain more than normal monitor-screen size of detail. Colin (talk) 22:04, 22 March 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: it is below size requirements. Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.
