推薦にあたって

推薦者のためのガイドライン

[edit]

まずはじめに、『秀逸な画像ガイドライン』、『画像のガイドライン』をお読みください。

ここでは推薦画像の評価を受ける・する際の必要事項を要約して紹介します。

  • 解像度 - 200万ピクセル以下の写真画像は、特別な理由が無い限り却下されます。1,600 x 1,200 ピクセル（1.92メガピクセル）は200万ピクセルには届いていない事にご注意ください。
コモンズに置かれた画像は一般的なＰＣモニターのみで閲覧されるとは限らず、プリントアウトや高解像度モニターで表示される可能性もあります。将来的にもどのような機器が用いられるようになるかは誰にも予想出来ないので、推薦画像が可能な限り高い解像度を保っている事は重要な事なのです。
  • スキャン画像 - 公式な方針ではありませんが、Help:スキャニングページで各種様々な画像を準備するための有用なアドバイスが提供されています。
  • フォーカス - 通常、重要な被写体は全て焦点が合っていなければいけません。
  • 前景と背景 - 前景や背景に主題ではない物が写り込むと、それは“余計なもの”になり得ます。前景にある物が主題の重要な部分を隠していないか、背景にあるものが構図を損ねていないか（例：後ろの街灯が人物の頭の上から生えているように見える、等）を確認しましょう。
  • 全体品質 - 推薦される画像には高い技術品質が要求されます。
  • デジタル補正 - 見る人を欺いてはいけません。写真画像のキズ・ホコリ等を修正する、良い編集、故意に人を騙す目的でない限り、デジタル補正は一般的に歓迎されます。例を挙げると、色合い/露出補正、シャープ/ボカシ、遠近感歪み補正、トリミング（切り取り）等がこれにあたります。背景に写り込んだ余計な物を取り除く等のさらに大がかりな修正は、{{Retouched picture}}テンプレートを画像ページへ貼付け、修正した旨を記述しましょう。記述漏れや記述ミスがある等、主題を不正確に見せる編集は決して受け入れられません。
  • 価値 - 『全ての画像の中でも特に際立ち、最も価値のある画像』が我々の大きな目標です。秀逸な画像はそれぞれの分野の中でも別格でなけらばならず、故に次の点に留意して下さい。
    • たいていの夕日は美しく見えますが、そういう画像のほとんどは他の夕日画像と大差ありません。
    • 夜景は美しいですが、普通は日中に撮影された写真の方がより詳細を見せてくれます。
    • 必ずしも『美しさに価値がある』わけではありません。

技術的側面では『露出』、『構図』、『動感表現』、『被写界深度』等を見ます。

  • 露出とはシャッタースピードと絞りとの組み合わせの事を言い、適切なトーンカーブが見せる陰影〜ハイライトが有用なディティールを描写します。これをラティチュード（露光寛容度）と言い、このラティチュードの陰影〜ハイライトの領域内において、画像を暗め、中庸、明るめに作る事が出来ますが、デジタルカメラ及びデジタル画像はこのラティチュードの範囲がフィルムに比べて狭いです。ディティールの欠損した影部分は必ずしも「悪い」わけではなく、実際にその様な効果が望ましい場合（部分）もあります。ただしディティールの欠損したハイライト部分が大きく面積を占めるのは良くありません。
  • 構図とは画像画面内での各要素の配置の事を言います。“三分割法”は構図作成には良い方法で、美術学校でも教えられています。まず、画像に水平線と垂直線をそれぞれ２本引き、画像を水平・垂直方向とも３分割します。主題を中央に配置するとたいていは画面に面白味を欠き、水平線と垂直線が交差する４つの交点の内どれか１つに主題を置いた方が良い画面になるでしょう。地平線は画面を半分に切ってしまうので、通常は地平線を中央に配置するべきではありません。上寄り、若しくは下寄りに配置させる方が良いでしょう。主たる考え方としては空間を上手に使い、躍動感・臨場感のある画面を作るという事です。
  • 動感表現 - ここでは被写体の「動き」を表現する手法を紹介します。動きのある被写体は止まって見えるか、もしくはブレて写りますが、これらはどちらの方が良いとは必ずしも言えず、どのような表現意図を持っているかによります。「動感」は主題と共に写り込んでいる他の背景等との関係で表現されます。例えばレーシングカーの撮影。車と背景とが共に止まって見えては、見る側にスピード感は伝わってきません。　なので撮影手法によって車は画面内で止まっているように写り、かつ背景をブレさせることでスピード感が表現され、このような手法を「パンニング（流し撮り）」と呼びます。一方で、背景と共に止まって撮られた高く跳躍したバスケットボール選手は、これは決定的瞬間の「不自然」なポーズになり、これも良い写真になり得るでしょう。
  • 被写界深度（DOF）とは主題の前側から後ろ側までのフォーカスエリアの事を言います。被写界深度は全ての画像で明解な意図のもと選択され、深い、または浅い被写界深度は、画像に品質を与えもし、また損なわせもします。浅い被写界深度は、主題を他の被写体から切り離し、見せたい被写体に注目を集めることが出来ます。深い被写界深度は空間を強調させる事が出来ます。広角（短焦点）レンズは深い被写界深度、逆に望遠（長焦点）レンズは浅い被写界深度が得られる傾向があります。また絞りを絞り込むと被写界深度は深く、解放すると浅い被写界深度が得られます。

グラフィック要素では形状、ボリューム、色、テクスチャー、遠近感、バランス、比率 等を見ます。

  • 形状とは主題に対する輪郭線、及び形状を言います。
  • ボリュームとは主題の立体感に対する品質を言います。立体感は横からのライティングで表現出来、反対に正面からのライティングは被写体を平坦に見せる傾向があり、不向きとされています。自然光の中でベストな光を得るには、早朝か、もしくは夕方の日の光が良いでしょう。
  • 色は大変重要で、強すぎる色合いは好ましくありません。
  • テクスチャーとは主題の表面材質の描写性に於ける品質を言います。表面材質は横からのライティングにより強調され、手に触れて伝わるかのような質感を与えます。
  • 遠近感とは、画像の画面内若しくは外にある消失点で繋がる放射状の直線、これに沿った形で現れる「角度」により表現されます。
  • バランスでは画像の画面内での重心が左右均衡か、若しくは片方に寄る等適切な配置が成されているかを見ます。
  • 比率では画面の大きさに対する被写体の大きさを見ます。一般的に、小さな被写体は小さく写真に表現してしまう傾向にありますが、相応しい撮影手法により小さな被写体を実寸とは逆に大きく見せる事が可能です。例えば、小さな花を大きな山よりも大きく見る事が出来ます。この手法を指して「倒置法」と呼びます。
主題の全ての要素を画像に盛込む必要はありません。多くの写真はそれぞれの個性で評価出来ます。すなわち、画像の色やテクスチャー等々により判断出来ます。
  • 『象徴性か妥当性か』　ー　『秀逸な画像』ではしばしばこのようなテーマで意見論争が起こる傾向にあります。技術的・品質的には出来の悪い写真でも極めて撮影困難な被写体を捉えた写真は、凡庸な被写体を写した品質的に良い写真よりも評価されます。もちろん撮影困難な被写体を写し、かつ品質も良い写真は極めて価値の高い写真と言えます。
画像は時に撮影者と評価者、若しくはどちらか片方の文化的な偏りが見られます。画像の意図は画像そのものの文化的背景により評価されるべきであり、評価者の文化的背景に依存してはいけません。イメージは人に語りかけ、そして慈しみ、怒り、拒絶、幸せ、悲しみ等の感情を喚起させる力を持っています。良い写真から与えられる心地よさには限りがありません。


画像のガイドラインを事前に読めば、あなたの推薦が成就する可能性を最大限に引き伸ばしてくれるでしょう。

Shrimp and crayfish boat LL-25 MiTina turning into her home harbor in Norra Grundsund, Lysekil Municipality, Sweden.
Standing on the jetty taking photos, I noticed the boat was approaching the harbor a bit faster than I thought it might, also taking the turn into the harbor a bit sharper than it should throwing up a good bow wave and backwash. After it had moored I jokingly commented on this to the captain. He said that he saw me on the jetty with my camera and was showing off to give me a good photo. :) After editing the photo, I sent a copy of it to the boat's internet page and gave them the rights to use it as they pleased. I figured, "one good turn deserves another". They still use this photo on social media and other things. :) All by me, -- Cart (talk) 21:46, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose I agree with Poco here. The information on each file is the bare minimum, even after I added the basics to each file. If there is an article about the items, it's best to link to it in the file description on each page, posting it here serves no purpose since this page will be archived in a week and in effect hidden from public view. The images are not so different from each other or eye-catching that a set is needed, complete or incomplete. It would be better to pick the best skull of the best photo quality, or skull and bones, to represent the group. --Cart (talk) 11:43, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Mamie Till at Emmett Till's funeral
  • @JayCubby - I did remove my vote as I ponder this a bit more. I experimented with cropping the photo and found it to be much more evocative, though found it difficult to get it "just right". I tried the crop on the left to just enough to remove nearest gentleman's face, leaving the full expression of the other man; and, a crop from the right to remove the sliver of the person next to the woman with her arm raised. But, per Cart, I'm wary of advocating for that change. - ERcheck (talk) 05:39, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support Been thinking about this for a long time now, and it is a very moving photo of very good quality taken at what must have been a rather chaotic event. It's a document of an historic event that I think should be preserved and featured in its entirety, after that people can use it as a base for other crops. Sure, we featured Heroico instead of the original, but that was mostly because the cropped version is the best one known and mostly used. I don't see any similar precedence with this. --Cart (talk) 12:03, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
     Comment - The above version is itself cropped. On EmmettTillExhibit.org, which was created in partnership with the Till family, The Emmett Till & Mamie Till-Mobley Institute, the Emmett Till Interpretive Center, and The Children's Museum of Indianapolis, see Image 16. In that "original" photo, Till's grandfather is also in the photo. As such, if one accepts a crop from the right, accepting a crop from the left (which is actually not taking out key people), would seem acceptable. - ERcheck (talk) 15:30, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Now the problem with that is that the full photo, probably from the original negative, is apparently owned some foundation or museum, so we are not sure that one is free to use and can probably not get our hands on it. The cropped photo above on the other hand, is from a paper copy owned by the Smithsonian and we know it is free. This is why so few old iconic photos get promoted. There are often many versions of them floating around and people here are forever quarrelling about which version to promote. (I can't remember how many attempts were made for different versions of Heroico for years.) I still say I vote to promote the whole photo we have and know is free, and let other crops be made from it, instead of mucking things up further. --Cart (talk) 17:04, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I full-heartedly agree with Cart here! Kritzolina (talk) 17:46, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Charlesjsharp, just a general point, because I don't think the official rules on categories are all that clear and I have struggled with them in the past too - Cart and Aristeas did a great explanation of categories here. In short, ask yourself questions based on Kipling's honest serving men. In the example of this nomination, I see that you had the 'what' and 'where' covered, though you could have been more specific with the 'where', but you missed the 'when' (Cart has now covered that with adding 'Nature of Vienna in August') and you also had an opportunity to categorise based on the animal's specific behaviour (eating hazelnuts), i.e. not just 'what is it' but 'what is it doing'. Cmao20 (talk) 00:36, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • "if he doesn't do it, why should I do it..."
"if he doesn't do it, then I shall do this..."
Dear Lord, it sounds like we are dealing with a bunch of six year old boys here!
A.Savin, while I understand your frustration, keeping an 'oppose' on such grounds is just petty and it won't change Charles' behavior one bit. Let me offer an alternative solution. If Charles, despite being a veteran nominator here and being told and corrected over and over again, still doesn't fulfill the basics of presenting a complete file in the noms, that can be seen as negligence, disrupting the workflow here and causing undue friction on the site. Constantly relying on others to do the work for you and pointing fingers instead, could be grounds for a block. As we know, blocks aren't punitive, but if we are looking at a future where FPC voters repeatedly have to save Charles from himself, that is bleak indeed. It is dangerously close to what got ArionStar blocked from this site. 'Pinging' Cmao20 too, as they are part of the discussion. --Cart (talk) 11:09, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment I may risk being uncharitable here but I struggle to understand how this picture, which is almost completely lacking in detail at full size, gets rave reviews from you whereas my nomination gets an oppose vote for 'lack of detail'. Cmao20 (talk) 00:03, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose A beautiful and difficult shot, regrettably ruined by excessive sharpening and noise reduction --Julesvernex2 (talk) 14:39, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Weak oppose Sadly, I have to agree with Julesvernex2. It's unfortunate that excessive sharpening and denoising have resulted in a washed-out and overly uniform look – many details appear lost. With more careful post-processing, especially when using AI-based tools, significantly better results are possible. Perhaps the nominator could kindly ask the author via e-mail whether a new development from the Raw file might be feasible? Best, -- Radomianin (talk) 15:14, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Weak oppose per Jules and Radomianin, so sorry. It always makes me sad when I see that people have great skills and make every effort to achieve wonderful photos, but then damage these images by rash post-processing so that they look like smartphone shots. This is such a stunning photo, it has deserved much better post-processing. Nerd hint: the pattern in some of the OOF drops of water at the top may be caused by the Phase Fresnel (PF) lens element; this is an additional reason why this photo needs careful editing – one should not emphasize that pattern by sharpening.– Aristeas (talk) 16:26, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Ah, good point! This review warns about the risk of getting "Fresnel bokeh" on specular highlights, indeed one more reason to be careful when editing this image Julesvernex2 (talk) 10:02, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • The writing on the two cars, the stone ballast in front of the train are not clear. The trees appear as smudges. Given the 23 MP res and 1/1600 shutter, I expect better better detail. Perhaps the camera was set to medium or low jpg quality? Or while saving in post-processing? An FP should be printable at the highest res without need for downsampling. --Tagooty (talk) 03:24, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • I strongly disagree with the idea that an FP should be printable at the highest res without need for downsampling. Ultimately this is just punishing creators for uploading high resolution files. A 23 megapixel image that is slightly blurry at full size but sharp when downsampled to 10 megapixels is superior to a completely sharp 10 megapixel image in every way. Anyway, I take your criticisms, but we've recently promoted far less sharp images than this. Cmao20 (talk) 10:59, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Info created by Osmo Lundell – uploaded by Osmo Lundell – nominated by Osmo Lundell -- --Osmo Lundell hey 10:33, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support -- --Osmo Lundell hey 10:33, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Hi Osmo, and welcome to FPC. This is a very beautiful view, and I would love to see a photo of this archipelago as FP. Unfortunately an iPhone can almost never provide enough detail and image quality for this, especially for such panoramic photos. The best way to get acquainted with what quality is good enough is to first nominate your photos at COM:QIC. That way you are guided into the process in a more gentle way and get feedback for your photos. Best, --Cart (talk) 16:42, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hey! Thank you for your kind response. Is the quality an actual issue here? The quality is very good and in the same level as any other photos of panoramic views (in my opinion of course). I think that you might have gotten this idea from your personal opinion of photography with phones? Or is it general consensus-driven "rule of thumb" that pictures can't be featured if they have been taken with a phone? Sorry I'm not trying to be an AH, I'm genuinely confused. --Osmo Lundell hey 00:46, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    All images are evaluated at 100% magnification. The standards for quality for FPs is very high, it's only lately that some phones aided by good editing programs have been able to compete here. Take a look at some of the other nominations here with a lot of support. Open them up full and you'll see the difference. Also see my comment below about images from phones. It's usually something of a shock for people who are used to phone photos, how much more image quality is required here. This is because FPs are expected to hold quality enough to have partial images extracted from it if necessary, or to be printed in large format. Also none of us here go by just our own experiences with phone photos. Many of us have been reviewing photos here for years, thousands of photos each year, so we have seen all sorts of photos from all sorts of cameras. Sometimes a photo from a cheap compact camera can outshine a photo taken by an insanely expensive Hasselblad or a shot that NASA spent millions to get. It all depends on how good a photographer and editor you are. --Cart (talk) 01:32, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Sadly I would not say the quality is 'very good'. It is good for a phone camera but I fear this will not cut it at FPC. The detail at full size is not really there - zoom in to pixel level size and look how little sharpness and definition there is on anything - compare to the nominations on this page right now that have a lot of support and the difference is clear. Nevertheless I think the motif is great and I really like the composition. But I don't think it can be FP. Cmao20 (talk) 02:08, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Osmo dont let to kill mans ambition for photo. I think smartphones are good enough today to made more than good shot. We already have many FP, even from cheaper phones. With some edit, and horizon is rotated. I would go normal "non-binned" 12 Mpx. --Mile (talk) 18:40, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Mile, I know you mean well and hopefully you won't take this the wrong way, but sometimes your English is a little hard to understand. Can you please explain the first and last sentences in your post here, I don't understand what you are saying and I really want to since you know so much about photography. I'm always ready to listen to your advice. --Cart (talk) 18:54, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Cart, phones can provide good quality and FP can be made with them, but often edition is needed. Don't we have Category "Made with Smartphone" yet ? We should if it doesnt exist. --Mile (talk) 20:30, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I know that it has happened in some cases (like this or this where not much detail is needed, both made in good light, while this nom is trying a very-hard-to-do light situation), but it's still much harder to get the detail and sharpness needed for FPs with a phone, and like you say some editing is usually needed. We don't rank FPs by the camera they were made with, that is beside the point, only the end-result matters. Some motifs are easier to capture well with a phone, and panoramas are among the hardest. I don't dismiss phone photos in general, I always examine them carefully and sometimes I'm surprised by how good they are, but this one is too blotchy for me. It looks like there is a strong wind, and all that motion makes it even harder for the phone to perform well. Take a look at these two images, both taken by me with the same phone, both edited as well as I could with the same Photoshop version, and notice the difference between the windy one and the one taken on a calm day. I could almost be thinking about nominating the "calm" photo, but people here would think I was nuts if I tried the "windy" one. --Cart (talk) 20:57, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose The concept of the image is nice, and the composition through the aperture of the tower is cool. But when viewed at full resolution, the pixels are blotchy. The image isn't sharp, especially the grasses, but even the wood of the tower. --Needsmoreritalin (talk) 20:12, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I think my color correction export might have f'd the result. I'm willing to just up the RAW file, but Commons doesn't support it I guess? Thanks for your comment and for kind words too! --Osmo Lundell hey 00:48, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment It absolutely is possible to get FPs from smartphones, (this picture I took, for example), but this image really lacks the required sharpness. Also, my picture was taken on the iPhone's RawMAX settings, which produces large raw images with more detail captured than with usual that can be edited in post-proccessing. It might be worth trying if available.--UnpetitproleX (Talk) 14:51, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    No one is saying it isn't possible to get FPs from phones, we have several examples of that (about 0.08% of all FPs are) , just that it's much harder than with larger sensor cameras. --Cart (talk) 14:57, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I know that, Cart, of course. I was responding to Osmo Lundell and others who may be under the impression that the oppose votes are due to it being a phone picture. The quality just isn't there in this image. There's also perspective issues I think. UnpetitproleX (Talk) 21:09, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hey, I also think it’s not the sharpest out there definetly, but the quality smd sharpness of the individual birch leaves is not the point of the image, and the quality/sharpness is in align with other panoramif photos, for example the ones Cart gave as an example above. Additionally I responded directly to Carts comment, because indeed it was his opinion which I mistook for a general guideline. But the consensus seems clear already and I respect the community and this conversation as always. I’ll return with a different nomination soon! --Osmo Lundell hey 21:38, 29 May 2025 (UTC) quick typo fix! --Osmo Lundell hey 21:40, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The photos I linked to was not examples of what quality we expect from FPs, far from it! They were only meant to illustrate how wind can affect a phone photos quality, not something I would consider nominate here. Also we all express our individual view on photos, unless a guideline is explicitly quoted.
    You can wait this nom out, or if you wish, you can withdraw it by posting the {{Withdraw}} tag on it. Looking forward to other photos. I'm always happy to see work by other Nordic photographers as there aren't many of us here on FPC. ;) --Cart (talk) 23:13, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I'll wait this nom out, the conversation might still keep rolling! PS. Du har rätt, Nordics unite! Fattade kopplingen först när jag slängde ett öga på din användarsida, kul! Kanske ses vi på nästa års Mello eller på nån wikimeetup om du dyker upp där! Också min point var att precis som i de där panoramorna, är hela bildens kontext det viktiga här, inte själva zoomandet. But enough of that :D --Osmo Lundell hey 12:06, 30 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support In my opinion, the composition is the whole point of the photo, you would not crop this photo and it looks good enough at full size  REAL 💬 ⬆   00:05, 30 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Shrimp and crayfish boat LL-25 MiTina turning into her home harbor in Norra Grundsund, Lysekil Municipality, Sweden.
Standing on the jetty taking photos, I noticed the boat was approaching the harbor a bit faster than I thought it might, also taking the turn into the harbor a bit sharper than it should throwing up a good bow wave and backwash. After it had moored I jokingly commented on this to the captain. He said that he saw me on the jetty with my camera and was showing off to give me a good photo. :) After editing the photo, I sent a copy of it to the boat's internet page and gave them the rights to use it as they pleased.

Mamie Till at Emmett Till's funeral
  • @JayCubby - I did remove my vote as I ponder this a bit more. I experimented with cropping the photo and found it to be much more evocative, though found it difficult to get it "just right". I tried the crop on the left to just enough to remove nearest gentleman's face, leaving the full expression of the other man; and, a crop from the right to remove the sliver of the person next to the woman with her arm raised. But, per Cart, I'm wary of advocating for that change. - ERcheck (talk) 05:39, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support Been thinking about this for a long time now, and it is a very moving photo of very good quality taken at what must have been a rather chaotic event. It's a document of an historic event that I think should be preserved and featured in its entirety, after that people can use it as a base for other crops. Sure, we featured Heroico instead of the original, but that was mostly because the cropped version is the best one known and mostly used. I don't see any similar precedence with this. --Cart (talk) 12:03, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
     Comment - The above version is itself cropped. On EmmettTillExhibit.org, which was created in partnership with the Till family, The Emmett Till & Mamie Till-Mobley Institute, the Emmett Till Interpretive Center, and The Children's Museum of Indianapolis, see Image 16. In that "original" photo, Till's grandfather is also in the photo. As such, if one accepts a crop from the right, accepting a crop from the left (which is actually not taking out key people), would seem acceptable. - ERcheck (talk) 15:30, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Now the problem with that is that the full photo, probably from the original negative, is apparently owned some foundation or museum, so we are not sure that one is free to use and can probably not get our hands on it. The cropped photo above on the other hand, is from a paper copy owned by the Smithsonian and we know it is free. This is why so few old iconic photos get promoted. There are often many versions of them floating around and people here are forever quarrelling about which version to promote. (I can't remember how many attempts were made for different versions of Heroico for years.) I still say I vote to promote the whole photo we have and know is free, and let other crops be made from it, instead of mucking things up further. --Cart (talk) 17:04, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Charlesjsharp, just a general point, because I don't think the official rules on categories are all that clear and I have struggled with them in the past too - Cart and Aristeas did a great explanation of categories here. In short, ask yourself questions based on Kipling's honest serving men. In the example of this nomination, I see that you had the 'what' and 'where' covered, though you could have been more specific with the 'where', but you missed the 'when' (Cart has now covered that with adding 'Nature of Vienna in August') and you also had an opportunity to categorise based on the animal's specific behaviour (eating hazelnuts), i.e. not just 'what is it' but 'what is it doing'.

Dear Lord, it sounds like we are dealing with a bunch of six year old boys here!
A.Savin, while I understand your frustration, keeping an 'oppose' on such grounds is just petty and it won't change Charles' behavior one bit. Let me offer an alternative solution. If Charles, despite being a veteran nominator here and being told and corrected over and over again, still doesn't fulfill the basics of presenting a complete file in the noms, that can be seen as negligence, disrupting the workflow here and causing undue friction on the site. Constantly relying on others to do the work for you and pointing fingers instead, could be grounds for a block. As we know, blocks aren't punitive, but if we are looking at a future where FPC voters repeatedly have to save Charles from himself, that is bleak indeed. It is dangerously close to what got ArionStar blocked from this site. 'Pinging' Cmao20 too, as they are part of the discussion. --Cart (talk) 11:09, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Weak oppose Sadly, I have to agree with Julesvernex2. It's unfortunate that excessive sharpening and denoising have resulted in a washed-out and overly uniform look – many details appear lost. With more careful post-processing, especially when using AI-based tools, significantly better results are possible. Perhaps the nominator could kindly ask the author via e-mail whether a new development from the Raw file might be feasible? Best, -- Radomianin (talk) 15:14, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Weak oppose per Jules and Radomianin, so sorry. It always makes me sad when I see that people have great skills and make every effort to achieve wonderful photos, but then damage these images by rash post-processing so that they look like smartphone shots. This is such a stunning photo, it has deserved much better post-processing. Nerd hint: the pattern in some of the OOF drops of water at the top may be caused by the Phase Fresnel (PF) lens element; this is an additional reason why this photo needs careful editing – one should not emphasize that pattern by sharpening.– Aristeas (talk) 16:26, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • The writing on the two cars, the stone ballast in front of the train are not clear. The trees appear as smudges. Given the 23 MP res and 1/1600 shutter, I expect better better detail. Perhaps the camera was set to medium or low jpg quality? Or while saving in post-processing? An FP should be printable at the highest res without need for downsampling. --Tagooty (talk) 03:24, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • I strongly disagree with the idea that an FP should be printable at the highest res without need for downsampling. Ultimately this is just punishing creators for uploading high resolution files. A 23 megapixel image that is slightly blurry at full size but sharp when downsampled to 10 megapixels is superior to a completely sharp 10 megapixel image in every way. Anyway, I take your criticisms, but we've recently promoted far less sharp images than this. Cmao20 (talk) 10:59, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Hi Osmo, and welcome to FPC. This is a very beautiful view, and I would love to see a photo of this archipelago as FP. Unfortunately an iPhone can almost never provide enough detail and image quality for this, especially for such panoramic photos. The best way to get acquainted with what quality is good enough is to first nominate your photos at COM:QIC. That way you are guided into the process in a more gentle way and get feedback for your photos. Best, --Cart (talk) 16:42, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hey! Thank you for your kind response. Is the quality an actual issue here? The quality is very good and in the same level as any other photos of panoramic views (in my opinion of course). I think that you might have gotten this idea from your personal opinion of photography with phones? Or is it general consensus-driven "rule of thumb" that pictures can't be featured if they have been taken with a phone? Sorry I'm not trying to be an AH, I'm genuinely confused. --Osmo Lundell hey 00:46, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    All images are evaluated at 100% magnification. The standards for quality for FPs is very high, it's only lately that some phones aided by good editing programs have been able to compete here. Take a look at some of the other nominations here with a lot of support. Open them up full and you'll see the difference. Also see my comment below about images from phones. It's usually something of a shock for people who are used to phone photos, how much more image quality is required here. This is because FPs are expected to hold quality enough to have partial images extracted from it if necessary, or to be printed in large format. Also none of us here go by just our own experiences with phone photos. Many of us have been reviewing photos here for years, thousands of photos each year, so we have seen all sorts of photos from all sorts of cameras. Sometimes a photo from a cheap compact camera can outshine a photo taken by an insanely expensive Hasselblad or a shot that NASA spent millions to get. It all depends on how good a photographer and editor you are. --Cart (talk) 01:32, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Sadly I would not say the quality is 'very good'. It is good for a phone camera but I fear this will not cut it at FPC. The detail at full size is not really there - zoom in to pixel level size and look how little sharpness and definition there is on anything - compare to the nominations on this page right now that have a lot of support and the difference is clear. Nevertheless I think the motif is great and I really like the composition. But I don't think it can be FP. Cmao20 (talk) 02:08, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Osmo dont let to kill mans ambition for photo. I think smartphones are good enough today to made more than good shot. We already have many FP, even from cheaper phones. With some edit, and horizon is rotated. I would go normal "non-binned" 12 Mpx. --Mile (talk) 18:40, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Mile, I know you mean well and hopefully you won't take this the wrong way, but sometimes your English is a little hard to understand. Can you please explain the first and last sentences in your post here, I don't understand what you are saying and I really want to since you know so much about photography. I'm always ready to listen to your advice. --Cart (talk) 18:54, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Cart, phones can provide good quality and FP can be made with them, but often edition is needed. Don't we have Category "Made with Smartphone" yet ? We should if it doesnt exist. --Mile (talk) 20:30, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I know that it has happened in some cases (like this or this where not much detail is needed, both made in good light, while this nom is trying a very-hard-to-do light situation), but it's still much harder to get the detail and sharpness needed for FPs with a phone, and like you say some editing is usually needed. We don't rank FPs by the camera they were made with, that is beside the point, only the end-result matters. Some motifs are easier to capture well with a phone, and panoramas are among the hardest. I don't dismiss phone photos in general, I always examine them carefully and sometimes I'm surprised by how good they are, but this one is too blotchy for me. It looks like there is a strong wind, and all that motion makes it even harder for the phone to perform well. Take a look at these two images, both taken by me with the same phone, both edited as well as I could with the same Photoshop version, and notice the difference between the windy one and the one taken on a calm day. I could almost be thinking about nominating the "calm" photo, but people here would think I was nuts if I tried the "windy" one. --Cart (talk) 20:57, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose The concept of the image is nice, and the composition through the aperture of the tower is cool. But when viewed at full resolution, the pixels are blotchy. The image isn't sharp, especially the grasses, but even the wood of the tower. --Needsmoreritalin (talk) 20:12, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I think my color correction export might have f'd the result. I'm willing to just up the RAW file, but Commons doesn't support it I guess? Thanks for your comment and for kind words too! --Osmo Lundell hey 00:48, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment It absolutely is possible to get FPs from smartphones, (this picture I took, for example), but this image really lacks the required sharpness. Also, my picture was taken on the iPhone's RawMAX settings, which produces large raw images with more detail captured than with usual that can be edited in post-proccessing. It might be worth trying if available.--UnpetitproleX (Talk) 14:51, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    No one is saying it isn't possible to get FPs from phones, we have several examples of that (about 0.08% of all FPs are) , just that it's much harder than with larger sensor cameras. --Cart (talk) 14:57, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I know that, Cart, of course. I was responding to Osmo Lundell and others who may be under the impression that the oppose votes are due to it being a phone picture. The quality just isn't there in this image. There's also perspective issues I think. UnpetitproleX (Talk) 21:09, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hey, I also think it’s not the sharpest out there definetly, but the quality smd sharpness of the individual birch leaves is not the point of the image, and the quality/sharpness is in align with other panoramif photos, for example the ones Cart gave as an example above. Additionally I responded directly to Carts comment, because indeed it was his opinion which I mistook for a general guideline. But the consensus seems clear already and I respect the community and this conversation as always. I’ll return with a different nomination soon! --Osmo Lundell hey 21:38, 29 May 2025 (UTC) quick typo fix! --Osmo Lundell hey 21:40, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The photos I linked to was not examples of what quality we expect from FPs, far from it! They were only meant to illustrate how wind can affect a phone photos quality, not something I would consider nominate here. Also we all express our individual view on photos, unless a guideline is explicitly quoted.
    You can wait this nom out, or if you wish, you can withdraw it by posting the {{Withdraw}} tag on it. Looking forward to other photos. I'm always happy to see work by other Nordic photographers as there aren't many of us here on FPC. ;) --Cart (talk) 23:13, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I'll wait this nom out, the conversation might still keep rolling! PS. Du har rätt, Nordics unite! Fattade kopplingen först när jag slängde ett öga på din användarsida, kul! Kanske ses vi på nästa års Mello eller på nån wikimeetup om du dyker upp där! Också min point var att precis som i de där panoramorna, är hela bildens kontext det viktiga här, inte själva zoomandet. But enough of that :D --Osmo Lundell hey 12:06, 30 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
