Poster for Foolish Wives, a 1922 American film
  • @Yann: do you see the header of this magazine? We can't read the first words because the page is cut off. It means the picture is cut off too. The source itself is badly cropped. Some content is missing. Not all the sources on the web are of good quality. And it's even more obvious on the previous page.

Removed the greenish tint visible in the photograph which makes it worse.
Removed the greenish tint and made coloring more accurate

  • For me the difference is that in the case of ‘Earthrise’ the picture was very heavily reproduced in contemporary news media to the extent that the famous version should be featured even if a technically better version exists. ‘Earthrise’ even has a Wikipedia article about it. In the case of this picture, it is a lot less famous and its value is in illustrating the event, not in its iconic status. Just my two cents, Cmao20 (talk) 02:46, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • You are right. This picture is less famous than others taken during the Apollo missions. We can propose and promote a version whose colors are more faithful to what an human eye would have seen, but we are not correcting a yellowed photograph. The featured image is the best version of the original picture, released during the Apollo Programm. The new version is a scientifically correct reproduction of what the other one represent. The two pictures are imho two different things, and both valuable. Imho, a {{Retouched picture}} is missing, also. --Harlock81 (talk) 14:54, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    If you want to add the Retouched picture feature to the page, you can do it yourself. I also see no reason why we can make two of the same photo both featured pictures. I agree with Cmao in the sense that Earthrise is the more historically reproduced photo Wcamp9 (talk) 23:11, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Montbenon courthouse, Lausanne.
  • Gallery: Commons:Featured_pictures/Places/Architecture/Exteriors#Switzerland
  •  Info The Montbenon courthouse was built between 1881 and 1886. This is an experimental composition shown from the side with a subtle fisheye effect, but the building is not actually curved. This type of wide shot allows you to appreciate the effect of the clouds in the sky being swept by strong winds at altitude. Created, uploaded and nominated by Terragio67 -- Terragio67 (talk) 18:22, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support -- Terragio67 (talk) 18:22, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I agree in this case that the curvature makes this photo very striking and accentuates the sweeping clouds. The quality is outstanding and I can't find any stitching errors. Cmao20 (talk) 00:41, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support iMahesh (talk) 01:44, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Like here, the cylindrical lines don't work for me, because it makes the appearance weird like deformed. Is it possible to make the perspective rectilinear? I also find the crop tight at the bottom -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:52, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi Basile and thanks for your comment. In this case the rectilinear projection does not work too, furthermore there would be a tree and a bush hugely depicted on the right side, subjects in the foreground and which would occupy 30% of the composition. Yes, your observations are correct, the bottom is tight, but there is a valid reasonː The compositional photo of the monuments, as a rule and out of politeness towards other people, must be taken if possible without framing them. In this case it was difficult, because there were several dozen people (even close to me) enjoying the last rays of the sun in front of the view of Lake Geneva. For this reason I did not want and could not point the camera downwards. I absolutely had to avoid them also because there are many other disturbing and distracting elements: Trees, bushes, street lamps and the enormous statue of W. Tell, positioned in front of the main entrance of the building. The cylindrical projection, in this particular case, by distancing some parts of the edge subject by gently curving it, has the advantage of enhancing the central part of the building and offering the richness of details with the colors brightened by the golden hour, together with the sky as a co-protagonist backdrop. Terragio67 (talk) 05:42, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support --SHB2000 (talk) 03:21, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose -- It's really a shame about the great sky, but in a photo where the main subject is a building, the edges should be straight. Also, the vertical parallels contradict my individual eye impression. For me, the building seems to be spreading upwards. Sorry. Je-str (talk) 10:59, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support --Harlock81 (talk) 16:22, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I'm not enthusiastic about this way of photographing either, but this building lends itself well to it in my opinion.--Famberhorst (talk) 18:03, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support -- Radomianin (talk) 23:02, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Sorry, fisheye lenses are not adapted to architecture in my opinion. They completely distort the appearance of the lines and proportions. And in this case the slight curvature sounds like a technical flaw, in my view. Something like File:Palais de Justice de Montbennon, Lausanne.jpg (imagine the perspective fixed) or 2 would be much better. And there are not always people around this monument, apparently. The current crop is really too tight at the bottom, and overall unbalanced. People are cropped at the lower left corner. I understand the difficulty with visitors, but that doesn't make the image better unfortunately. It's relatively an easy subject, you can go again and give another try. I agree with Je-str the sky is nice, however, you can certainly meet different weather conditions there, at various times of the day, and use a rectilinear lens -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:16, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    To be accurate, this was taken using a rectilinear lens and remapped using a cylindrical-like projection.  Agree with the rest: the output is unfortunate. - Benh (talk) 10:48, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus)
  •  Support Sorry if I'm wrong, but I think mixing water and air in a single shot is not easy, and rare enough. Thus per COM:FP: "A bad picture of a very difficult subject is better than a good picture of an ordinary subject." In that case I guess the top of the device might be humid? Still I find the composition captivating and innovating. The image shows us how close the sharks swim to the surface. And it reminds me Jaws (the film). The level of detail of the animals is excellent for an underwater picture -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:07, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks. The underwater plastic dome, which is wet, distorts the top half of the picture. Of course, many half-and-half photos online are merged images. There may be other half-and-halfs of sharks (or other animals) on Commons, but I've not found any. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:35, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Giles' photos and the experiences he presented have now convinced me otherwise. My apologies, Charles. Nevertheless, it is still impressive, and I fully support Famberhorst's recommendation to nominate it at VIC. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 22:41, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment We have valued image (VI) for rare photos that do not meet the FP standard.--Famberhorst (talk) 18:26, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Half underwater photography with unblury top is not hard to do. There are three different ways to achieve it : 1) rubing some special lotion on the dome glass like this product ; 2) keeping the top of the glass dry ; 3) replunging the dome completely in the water and then taking it out again. I would personally not use the first option as I don't think such lotion would be good for the ocean or the animals. But I got very easily many pictures with sharp top only using the technic described with option number 3. Here are some examples taken with a GoPro inside a GDome in 2021 in the Bahamas : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. And I have much more : link. For this picture, if the dome would have been plunged underwater and taken out again a picture with clear top would have been taken. Given how easy it is to take half underwater pictures and given how common and easy black tip reef sharks can be found for tourists I personnally think that this picture is not at FP level and not even at QI level, sorry. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 20:26, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Sorry, I should have gone to the very shallow water where the pigs were. Would that that sharks were that slow... Charlesjsharp (talk) 22:00, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    No need for shallow water, you can easily dip back the dome in the water in deep water. Also the pigs were actualy the ones running while blacktip sharks usually swim slowly most of the time. Finally, blacktip sharks are very easily found in shallow water and the fact that the sand is visible in this picture indicates that it was taken in shallow water -- Giles Laurent (talk) 22:27, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
The blue tint has gone, but it's still too dark and {{Uncategorized}}. See the yellow template on the file page displaying the text "This media file is uncategorized." Or visit COM:CAT -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:34, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I already added the category ...weird. The topic of light still remains incomprehensible to me, it seems to be a constant "concern" here with my pictures. I think I have enough experience to be able to assess the lighting already when taking pictures and I don't agree with this criticism here... Maybe I have bad eyes .. 🤷 Janeklass (talk) 09:30, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Albert Marco
My thought is that a lot of people might provide a high quality image of, say, Abraham Lincoln, but we may be the only good source of an image for someone like Albert Marco. If we ignore minor figures, people studying minor figures have no chance of getting a good image. Adam Cuerden (talk) 07:33, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, it's not really a "minor figure". Marco Albori, alias Albert Marco gets his own article on Wikipedia, clue that he is certainly a Major bad boy :-)
To be frank, at the beginning I thought it was an artist with painting on his suit (like Niels Shoe Meulman for example). But actually it might rather be blood? Basile Morin (talk) 07:58, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Telefontornet in Stockholm, 1890.
This version was rightly FPX-ed by Basile due to low resolution (although it's cleaned up a bit and perspective corrected), but since this is a rather famous photo in Sweden, I've taken the liberty to add the original as an alt. It's large enough, but may require some restoration. I'll leave it up to voters here to review this, please revert if you want. --Cart (talk) 13:42, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

@W.carter, thanks so much for saving my nomination and even bringing up a bettered version. ;D -- LucaLindholm (talk) 08:36, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Yann: I totally agree that overprocessing of historic(al) photographs is a bad thing – drastic changes of white balance or gradation, sharpening, even removal of original film grain may all be considered harmful. However the little black stains in this photo look exactly like the typical little dirt spots (often fly droppings) which I have often seen on old prints, and cloning them out would IMHO restore the original appearance of the photo without reducing its historical value. If we want to keep a photo 100% authentic (reproducing the current state of a concrete negative, slide or print), we should not even rotate and crop it; if we do the latter, we have have already moved on from 100% authenticity to a slightly restored version, and then it also seems avisable to remove obvious dirt and scratches, too. – Aristeas (talk) 09:54, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
 Support Thank you very much, Yann! This version is indeed much better and IMHO now really looks how the photograph was looking originally. All clear stains are gone. I agree that it is good that you have kept some tiny irregularities which could be stains, too, but may very well be part of the reality/of the original photo. So this version really deserves the star. Thank you again, – Aristeas (talk) 16:39, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Portrait photograph of Israeli model Yuval Gargir, created during a workshop organized by PhotoFreak.
  • Ultra-realistic AI work? (And there's a similar "abrupt shadow" under the nose). Compare the shadow on the cheek and those ones, there's a huge difference. I don't think it's skin pigmentation either, the surface is too large -- Basile Morin (talk) 14:03, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    It's a 2012 image taken during a professional workshop (read the technique details in image description). It was probably a mistake to nominate this, but it isn't AI. DGtal (talk) 14:10, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I read the description but this description doesn't explain this weird shadow. Note that we also meet fake images here sometimes.
It's not AI because we can find other photos associated to this name, on the web. But please also add {{PR}} on the file page.
The odd thing also is that the shadow is on the skin but not on the shirt. It really doesn't look natural to me -- Basile Morin (talk) 14:45, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

File:The Kaaba during Hajj (edited).jpg (delist), delisted

[edit]

Visit the nomination page.

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes.Voting period ends on 15 Jan 2025 at 06:43:09

 Info: Reasons to delist:

  • Wrong nomination and upload made by Aliphotography sockpuppet of indef blocked user ArionStar. See the original nomination here;
  • High compression rate and quality reduced (only 5.76 MB instead of 21.09 MB for the new version);
  • Non standard profile "Display P3" instead of the original "sRGB IEC61966-2.1".

Technical improvements made from the original photo taken by Adli Wahid, in addition to the consensual crop suggested by Fernando and SHB2000:

  • Tilt fixed, perspective improved in accordance with COM:I (check the left side of the Kaaba and the pillar on the right side of the picture for example);

That's a question for the original file uploader. Based on the uploader's contributions, perhaps at the time the source offered a higher resolution scan, or something along those lines, but I don't know. Bammesk (talk) 04:23, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, Bammesk. @Crisco 1492: how do you get so many pixels? -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:34, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hi Basile Morin. The maximum resolution file on the zoomify was larger than the resolution available for download. They seem to have changed their algorithm for zooming since then, but if you compare the zoom at maximum resolution with the copy we have here, theirs actually goes even bigger. Now, whether that means they were drawing from a higher resolution file that isn't shared, or their zoom mechanism allows going past 100%, I don't know. All of my Met uploads from the period were at the highest resolution available in zoomify. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 11:55, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Obviously I can't answer for FrankieF, but this is a public annual event (often with Swedish dignitaries present) where you are free to take photos, so much like this FP or this FP. The absent {{PR}} is probably just an oversight. Frankie is one of the top people-at-events photographers we have in the wiki-Sweden community, and he usually never adds that template to his photos.

Princess Elizabeth of York — the future Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom — when she was seven years old. Oil on canvas, artist Philip de László.
Sorry, but I disagree with your proposed change. Princess Elizabeth may have been 7 years old, but she wasn't just a child... she was the grandchild to king George V (and later became queen). She was important enough to be in category "paintings", even if Edward VIII had never abdicated and Elizabeth had never become a queen. Category "children" makes me think of a bunch of unknown kids. Also, the painting of 9 year old Romaine Lacaux, and Oval portrait miniature of girl oil painting by Valentine Manchon Duchesne is in category "paintings". So... I change the category back, and hope you are OK with that... :-) --Zquid (talk) 06:29, 15 January 2025 (UTC) [reply]
Are you saying that this child is more precious than “ordinary” children just because it belongs to some “royal” family? (Then I have to disagree completely, sorry. All human beings are created equal, and mankind should follow rational arguments, law and ethics, not blood and lineage.) Or is your point that the “Children” section is for images of unknown and anonymous children and that all portrait paintings of children should be sorted under “Portraits”? The latter is an interesting suggestion. We should discuss this elsewhere. – Aristeas (talk) 08:46, 19 January 2025 (UTC) – Update: See this discussion. Cart’s proposal is to dissolve the unclear “Children” section. This also solves our difference of opinion here: all portrait paintings of children will be sorted unter “Portraits”. I hope you are fine with that (it means your link is respected) and I am fine with that, too, because it avoids any special treatment for “special” children. – Aristeas (talk) 17:27, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
  • Thanks for your comment. But sorry, I don't see any mistakes in the yellow half-decayed leaf. The further away the leaf is from the camera (so behind the mushroom) the leaf fades. That was also the intention. I took the first photo of the rear tip of the mushroom and then further forward so that the entire mushroom (so the object) was sharp. I think that worked out well.--Famberhorst (talk) 06:19, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Weak oppose Sorry but the top of that leaf is in focus, while the bottom is blurry, all around the mushroom. You might have a frame in your batch with that leaf in focus. Then please, fix the issue on a software. Best regards -- -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:34, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have 146 photos each with a space of half a millimeter between them of the mushroom. There is no sharp leaf that you mean in between. That is not possible because that part of the leaf is behind the mushroom. Only the forward curled ends of the leaf were captured by the camera at f/5.6.--Famberhorst (talk) 16:41, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support --SHB2000 (talk) 08:07, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Agree with Basile and would agree with trying to correct the focus issue. IMO still think this is an impressive image and support for FP. --GRDN711 (talk) 17:04, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Per Basile, the sudden transition in the yellow leaf seems indeed like a focus stacking issue (note how the transition to the brown leaf in the backgorund is less abrupt, despite it being further away). I think we already discussed this issue in one of your previous nominations, it can be fixed by combining a method B and a method C output. This technique can also sort out the other stacking issues (e.g., around the stem in the foreground). --Julesvernex2 (talk) 10:07, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Rescue workers near the semi-collapsed ten-story Uranus Building on Xuanyuan Road after the 2024 Hualien earthquake

  •  Support--🚊。鐵路Railway Talk 11:01, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose No, definitely not with that problem of perspective, which gives the impression that all the buildings are collapsing, while in fact there is only one in the center. But believe it or not, I was working on a derivative version of this file on my computer to propose a "delist and replace" nomination on en-Wikipedia. In addition to this major problem of perspective, the sky is horribly dotted with many dust spots. The resolution is not great and I'm not sure that, even with these corrections, it can become a FP on Commons. Still, I'm going to upload another version soon, so you can compare. To finish, I'm not sure the file name, that translates into "04.03 The Vice President went to Hualien to learn about the disaster situation and rescue progress - 53629407644" really describes the image. I don't think the Vice President is a fireman :-) Best regards -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:31, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose this version but would support Basile's version. The perspective problems in this one are the killer. If you're illustrating a collapsing building you really need to aim for realism. With no perspective correction it genuinely looks like all the buildings are damaged and leaning. Cmao20 (talk) 13:45, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose against, subject very interesting but "it would be possible to take a better photo" => there are some stain on the tract-sin. Olivier LPB (talk) 15:45, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Historical buildlings of Schwäbisch Hall, seen from the Sulfer Steg
  • I totally agree that this one is slightly better because the shadow at the left is less prominent, and because the tree at the right seems part of the composition, whereas here the branches seem to obstruct the houses of the background. The resolution is also higher. But unfortunately the other version was not nominated here, although it has been hosted here for more than a year now. If this one fails, we're not sure there will ever be one of both promoted -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:17, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Sorry, your image is really very good too. The subject is very photogenic. I didn't search through the many images that show exactly the same perspective. Can there only ever be one FP?

For future reference, Kingsmasher678, correcting the voting period is something that is very seldom done since it is tricky. You should always create the nomination just before adding it to this list, so the time stamp is correct. You can't re-use an old nomination, you need to create a new with the "/2" per the instructions by the box you fill in at the FPC page, if you missed to add it to this list the first time. --Cart (talk) 19:20, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Colorful sky with pink and blue clouds reflecting in the water of a paddy field at dusk in Don Det Laos
  • Thank you very much. We have beautiful sunsets here, really spectacular sometimes, especially during the monsoon, when the weather is constantly changing with big variations of clouds, at different altitudes. It is sometimes even richer than here, but it does not always happen when the rice is at this height, low enough to preserve the mirror effect of the water. The rice here is planted only once a year, it grows extremely fast, and in the space of only a few days it is already high enough to camouflage the reflection -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:23, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Front exterior view of Beomeosa temple with three stairs and blue sky in Busan South Korea
  • Yes, they "are" actual participants. I was almost the only tourist here, besides, all the other people around were there for spiritual reasons. Thank you very much. The paintings were indeed splendid. I was amazed. The only problem is that the site opens rather in the middle of the day, and therefore not early enough in the morning for a softer light.

Magnificent sea anemone (Radianthus magnifica), Zanzibar, Tanzania
  • Gallery: Commons:Featured pictures/Animals#Class : Anthozoa
  •  Info Magnificent sea anemone (Radianthus magnifica), Zanzibar, Tanzania. This anemone, native to the Indo-Pacific area, is characterized by a flared oral disc, which reaches between 20–50 centimetres (7.9–19.7 in) in diameter. The magnificent sea anemone has two feeding methods. The first one is through the photosynthesis of its symbiotic zooxanthellae, living in its tissues. The second method is through using its tentacles to stun, immobilize, and consume prey (small invertebrates, fry, or juvenile fish). Note: we have no FPs of this species. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 06:58, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
