- Comment Very nice birdy. But may it be this is an immature bird (this, for instance, is presumably a picture of an adult Coracias caudatus specimen), in this case this should be also described as such. Also, of course, Category:Protected areas of Tanzania is clearly redundant, because: "Protected areas of Tanzania" -> "National parks of Tanzania" -> "Serengeti National Park" (-> "Animals of Serengeti National Park" -> "Birds of Serengeti National Park"), you should therefore remove it from all your uploaded picture of the same session, if there are more available. --A.Savin 17:43, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

- Support Wow that's very appealing. I like the way the clear and sharp glass structure in the foreground is interacting with the very moody and blurry background. The bird is adding wonderfully to this composition. This image is telling a story about a nice evening at the sea and "Fernweh". --August (talk) 22:59, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Support Translucent glass spheres work very well with the contre-jour light. Although out of focus, the bird is nice and adds something to the atmosphere. The bit of bush at the lower left corner is more distracting in my view (because too small to be considered part of the composition).

- Comment Question: how close to original colors did you come with scan with DSLR. The other is you scaned developed film and checked colors with orignal picture ? Seems nice, but i miss more sharp, big aperture didnt help probably-f/2.8. Some (probably) mistake is annoted and one burnt pixel of left seide of cupola. --Mile (talk) 11:01, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for reviewing so detailed. I try to respond step by step:
- Colours: I am always using reference slides with LUT for film digitalization. Here I used a Agfa Precisa CT 100 reference as colour table. So I can rule out any colour shift between slide and this image produced with my DSLR. Of course the film itself was making some shift compared to the real world in the first place. This file is looking very close to what the slide is looking like. And the image is very close to reality. You have to know that this room was built to have that kind of intense low light. I visited the "volcano" several times. And every time I am very impressed by this room. It is very dark in there. So for the first seconds you can not see any stone of that dome, just the very saturated yellow / orange glass. After a while the eyes adapt and the dome becomes visible.
- Sharpness: Yes it was partially intentional. I tried to focus on the glass, more than onto the dome. Additionally it is a compromise for exposure time, because the tripod was not installable as stable as one would wish to. The is a statue below, and the tripod has to stand one one foot to not touch the statue.
- The "strange black line" is a scratch at the film produced while processing. The "burnt pixel" is not a pixel but a film corn which somehow developed wrong. I will retouch both errors today.

- @ August Got it. Looking at this, i think you could put cupola in upper third with some crop (as shown), what would i do, maybe as Alternative. Do you know what Dmax you have from this type of scan ? --Mile (talk) 08:50, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- Support This photo is a piece of art in many ways, not only because of the weather at that time and place, but also the technique used, the camera used, it is a look at the past and the present.

- Oppose 6 FPs at once is a lot of FPs. Quality is good but right now I don't see what makes this pulpit special. It lacks wow to me and I couldn't find on the Internet anything special about it. Poco a poco (talk) 17:38, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- Info Not the pulpit itself, but the church, where it is located. St. Genesius (Riedböhringen) is the burial church of cardinal Augustin Bea, one of the most important personalities of the Second Vatican Council and personal confessor of Pope Pius XII. -- Llez (talk) 18:34, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose First and last pictures are not extraordinary, in my opinion. Unexceptional angles of view, distorsions in the first case, yellowish interior light. The four statues also seem quite repetitive. When opened individually, each image has limited wow factor, I think. The last one, if nominated alone, would certainly fail, due to the composition. Thus the only reason to be part of this set seems to show the stairs, which are not really special, sorry -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:57, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Info 1.) It is not a yellowish light, but the walls are slightly beige. You can check it by comparing them with the white tablecloth in the left picture. 2.) The reason was not to show the stairs, but it was, in connection with the first picture, the only way to show the position of the four evangelists at the pulpit. --Llez (talk) 09:06, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- In a set, each picture should be FP-level, and not only "in connection with" the others. That angle, with the angel from behind, numerous busy elements, uneven ground, and shadows, is particularly unappealing -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:30, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose Reading about lens and adaptor ystdray, i think this could be much sharper, compo is nice colors ok, but unsharp. Problem might be you set ISO to low and handshaking made it. --Mile (talk) 07:56, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- Like Basile pointed out above, this bird is rare to see (in fact, I've only seen it once). Wild life shot at long distance (600 mm) and still 24 MPx. It can always be sharper but still a decent shot under the given conditions. Poco a poco (talk) 13:38, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

- Comment Converting master images (i.e., versions of what Wikimedia Commons uses as source images when scaling) from lossless images to lossy compression is a bad idea as it degrades the image quality. Also, Wikimedia Commons does a good enough transparent conversion from TIFF to JPEG on the fly that there is no need for manual conversions for general use just to get a JPEG version of the file. --Zache (talk) 23:16, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Weak support A JPG version is a standard format that has the advantage of a low weigh. It is also easy to download, and to display in many softwares and browsers. You can choose the best conversion rate with minimum loss, almost insignificant.

- Oppose Original photo is here. It is a famous photograph, part of the "Finnish Heritage Agency". You can't change the appearance of a widespread cover of magazine Eeva, and pretend the author is the photographer Seppo Konstig with such a fancy effect as this white gradient all around. Many photographers don't like this nebulous, cloudy style, and it would be misleading to believe that the photographer chose this appearance for that portrait. You can modify the photos that belong to you as much as you want, but for the significant photos that are anchored in history, it seems essential to me to respect the original source, even if it is not to the taste of all the participants from Wikimedia in 2024. Imagine Che Guevara, or Louis Armstrong with a similar white cloud outline, it would be ridiculous to promote such a version.

- Comment No need for a half-bird. Charlesjsharp (talk) 07:30, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- Support I think this photo deserves a little bit more discussion. Perspective, focus and crop are certainly unusual. But people often consider the colourful throat as the most interesting feature of this species, and therefore it makes some sense that the photo emphasizes the throat and shows it in all its beauty. – Aristeas (talk) 09:09, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment More discussion, then, though I know Aristeas does not welcome my critiques. Apologies to the photographer for going into more detail: The composition is unnatural, awkward and unbalanced. The point of view is well below the bird which is surprising considering a 600mm lens was used. The foreground bush is distracting, as is the blurred tail. The chest feathers are nicely in focus but the eye and top of the head are not. The choice of lens means that even with F8 the depth of field is poor. So 3/10 for artistic impression and 3/10 for technical merit. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:39, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment Charles, I appreciate your critiques, especially when they are clear and detailed as this one. When I emphasize the strenghs of a photo which has been criticized by you (or anybody else), I do not do this because I want to contradict you, but because IMHO photos deserve a good discussion which considers both the merits and the vices of each image. This a good way to encourage others to examine the image in detail for themselves, and ultimately to arrive together at a balanced judgment in a lively exchange of opinions. -- Aristeas (talk) 18:59, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose Problem of focus and depth of field. Eye and top of the head are out of focus. The whole body lacks detail. Also the unappealing blurry tail. In addition to the feet missing, the distracting foreground makes the composition cluttered -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:44, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose Per above, detail level in some areas is though nice, but the eyes are critical Poco a poco (talk) 06:50, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
