    Why mate? Wilfredor (talk) 22:15, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't know man, there may be kids around. But to answer your question, it may be that the subject of this photo is very awkward or just straight up embarrassing to talk about or even look at. I also don't think the female contributors would appreciate this. Wolverine XI 16:49, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for taking the time to respond. I hope that the image has not generated any unpleasant sensations in you. Show that even with our age and disabilities, our minds remain young. Wilfredor (talk) 16:53, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    To start, I had no sensations at all. I get the message you are attempting to convey, but is it one that people find acceptable? In case my purplish-pink signature misled you into thinking I'm a woman, I'm not.Wolverine XI 19:43, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    No matter if you're a woman, man, or any non-binary gender, everyone deserves equal treatment. I never assumed you were a woman, Wolverine is actually a very macho name, but if you are, it doesn't change anything. Once, I found out that someone I thought was a man was actually a woman. Since then, I've been more mindful of certain topics because I understand that Commons can be a tough place for women due to their small numbers. Wilfredor (talk) 20:30, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I want to be quite clear: I am a male (XY chromosomes), not a woman or any other gender. Also, I believe that these kinds of nominations will make any female contributor turn tail and skedaddle outta here. Now that I think about it, if pictures like these are being nominated, I don't blame women for not participating. Wilfredor, I understand your good intentions, but this picture is cringe. One female I know called this image a blatant example of sexual objectification and the so called "male gaze". I can't say I disagree with her, so... Wolverine XI 16:17, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment If you think it's photos like this that keeps most women away from FPC, you are dead wrong. It's the overall toxic man-cave atmosphere at FPC that keeps most women as well as many decent male photographers away. All people have desires, dreams and urges, and if they are depicted in a good and respectful way in a photo they can certainly be promoted here. This photo however has composition problems. If it had been taken a few seconds later with a smaller F-number, then the woman would have been smaller in frame, more dreamlike (blurred) and the man would have been the main subject — just another old lonely man with dreams of a woman. Now the woman is too close to the frame and the thing that is most noticeable, is her butt and not the old man. That is what makes this photo sub-standard and not something I would support. --Cart (talk) 14:08, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks dear Cart, based on your perspective and comments, I want to express my admiration for your strength and for highlighting the importance of having women among us. Personally, I openly support women's inclusion and would like to encourage more to join us. I apologize for my past behavior towards you. I am genuinely tired of male supremacy, which is not just a problem here but a societal issue. This photo also makes me uncomfortable, and seeing it from your viewpoint, it's a critique of our society that mistreats women and perpetuates sexist stereotypes. Long live freedom, equality, and down with the imperialist patriarchal system!! Wilfredor (talk) 14:30, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Calling FAC a "toxic man-cave" is amusing, and I don't see how that will alleviate the problem. I also don't think that this is the appropriate forum for discussing political issues, so we just have to accept the status quo. Wolverine XI 16:21, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Don't worry, I'm not going to start some revolution, I know that is impossible, so your status quo is safe. I only thought that rather than you guessing why women aren't attracted to FPC, it might be ok for a woman to give a reason. --Cart (talk) 17:42, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I might have overreacted Wilfredor (talk) 17:52, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well it is – denialism isn't going to solve anything, Wolverine XI. --SHB2000 (talk) 04:17, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not that I'm denying anything, but how are men toxic on FPC? I fail to see it. Is it that there are more guys than girls? Beyond the reasons I described above, I don't see any other explanation for women's lack of participation. Wolverine XI 14:37, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, you could start with not calling the women here "girls". I don't call the guys here "boys" since I think that would be equally demeaning to you men. The language flying around here is overly harsh and blind to that people are addressing other human beings. Adding to that, there is the rather competitive tone in comments. This forum used to be more about helping each other and the Commons project. Issues were solved with discussions rather than the heated confrontations we see today. This was some years ago when there were more women and skilled male photographers participating here. The "man cave" part is because the technical side of photography, and the race to get hold of the best and latest gadgets, now weighs heavier than composition and story. This is because it's easier for non-photographers to evaluate some rouge pixels than a bad compo. It makes for a lot of exclusion and inadvertently hard condescending comments. Also, try to be open to new subjects and trends in photography and not automatically sneer at something that is unfamiliar. However much some users here argue that choosing subjects and point of view is more down to individuals, the way you see the world and compose photos is very much a product of your gender and background. Nominating something new here and you basically get the same reactions the first Impressionist painters got at the Paris Salon more than a century ago.
I have written similar things many times before, but since you are relatively new here, you haven't seen them. (Apologies to the rest for repeating myself) Like before, this post too will be ignored and forgotten within a day or so and FPC will return to what it is now. Nothing will change. --Cart (talk) 15:39, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
+1 I've been on a bit of a break from FPC for a few days now, but this nomination was still on my watch because I was afraid it might lead to some heated discourse. I frankly agree with Cart's statement because she is right. I wish there was more constructive help, especially for newbies or rare nominators. Fortunately, there are a few users who share their image editing experience in a tangible and concrete way with users who need help, in the sense of live and let live. This should be the norm rather than the exception. Best, -- Radomianin (talk) 21:30, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
+2 Thank you, Cart. It's always good to hear from you; you truly are an inspiración, not only for your work but also on a personal level. Our users come from many different places, making this a multicultural space where misunderstandings often occur. Photography is not just about técnica; it is an expression of each individual's experience, and to capture that diversidad, we need an inclusive and respectful environment, especially towards women. We live in a sociedad where women have had to fight hard for their derechos and for a place in spaces traditionally dominated by men, and FPC is no exception. If we genuinely want this to be a space where creatividad and colaboración flourish as you mentioned it used to be, we must strive to break down the barriers that limit female participation in FPC. I don't know how it is in other culturas, but in Brazil, women bring sensibilidades that can only come from them. We cannot afford to lose these valuable contributions due to a macho culture or the ego-stroking of testosterone-filled men, which can make this community seem exclusionary or dismissive. Another thing, the nivel of the entire community. I perceive this difference you mentioned, and it is evident to me at least, that this section is becoming increasingly problemática and tóxica. Many are no longer participating for this reason. This ambiente must be a place where everyone and not just by not being sexist; we must be actively inclusive. We must listen, learn, and change our practices because we are fostering the same issues seen on Wikipedia—a white European version of FPC. We all benefit from a more inclusive comunidad. Thank you for your coraje in writing this here, despite the likely opposition to these topics. --Wilfredor (talk) 22:05, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
+3 I have also took a bit of a break from FPC, QIC and just Commons outside of FR for this very same reason. I wish I could say there's a solution to this, but I'm afraid we can't exactly do much as individuals other than call out misogyny and toxic behaviour when we see it.

Bluethroat's head and neck in Katonkaragay national park. Katonkaragay District, East Kazakhstan Region, Kazakhstan.
  •  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)[reply]
  •  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)[reply]

  •  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)[reply]
    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 (talk) 13:38, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • @ 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)[reply]
  • I see your point. It sounds like a good idea. I tried it in several ways. To get the maximum two thirds look out of it, I have to cut off very much content and can not win some new in the bright right part. This would waste too much detail of the still limited film information. I think the image just was not composed for that approach in the first place. August (talk) 09:04, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disk-shaped nebula formed by the winds of the type Wolf-Rayet star WR 134. This blue nebula is embedded within an interstellar region rich in gas and dust clouds in the constellation Cygnus.
  • Usually no mountains required for astrophotography (not many of those in Hamois, Belgium where this is taken), just absence of too much disturbing light or air pollution. When I do aurora photos, I just load my stuff in a shopping caddy and head out to a field near a nature reserve or down to the shore of the fjord. --Cart (talk) 12:47, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I remember climbing a 5,000 meter peak (Bolivar) for 8 days to take some photos of the stars, but we arrived at the top so tired that we fell asleep in a tent, I remember that taking a step there is like running in a football stadium, my heart beats very fast, but in the middle of the night I woke up to a windless night with incredible clarity, when I saw the sky that night it was so beautiful that I simply began to cry perhaps also affected by the lack of oxygen, I could not think rationally and take the photos properly, but I remember that the sky there is completely different, the stars are brighter and you can see the shapes of the constellations, it is very different from the sky we see.1 2 3 Wilfredor (talk) 13:37, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  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)[reply]
  •  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)[reply]
  • 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)[reply]

Bahram, an Iranian underground rapper who has immigrated to Sweden
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 a beautiful image and composition but unfortunately it has irreparable technical details that go beyond the minimum requirements to be a remarkable image: Blurred face, excessive processing. --Wilfredor (talk) 23:41, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply] Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support.

I don't think it is clever to renominate again and again the same FPCs that get 5 supports or 6 supports, until you get the 7. If a picture gets lack of participation, it is usually an indicator of moderate or low wow. Then it's better to try a different candidate. Otherwise you will exhaust the participants with repetitive visuals. And we will support only to get rid of these patterns. Apart from that, this image is of low quality, in my opinion, even for the period.

With all respect, Basile, if I had done it, you'd have every right to complain, but I didn't renominate it. Adam Cuerden (talk) 21:15, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Low quality for 1890? This can be explained in part due to the process of "whitening" Machado de Assis (many photographers at the time perhaps did not want to show the fact that the country's greatest writer was pardo/black). 21:32, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I worked very hard to try and get the skin tone as close to correct as I could with this image. I found a report calling him a "light-skinned mestizo" - I believe the term is much more acceptable in South America - so I'm not sure what's perfect, but I did my best. Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:54, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The jacket is ok but not the face -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:47, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
With all respect, Adam, you're not responsible. But ArionStar had been warned several times in the past, with quite clear messages. I understand this is your picture and want it promoted, since you nominated it the first time. But both of you had voted already last week. So what do you expect? Many of us may get tired with such repetitive tasks, if it gets a norm. Let's maintain FPC as an enthusiastic and emulative voting place instead, with diversity.
If a picture fails, no problem, just accept the consensus and try something better! See the list of similar candidatures which didn't pass last month, only because one or two votes were missing:
score 5-0, score 6-0, score 5-0, score 7-4, score 13-7, score 7-4, score 5-2, score 6-1, score 5-2, score 6-0, score 5-3, score 5-0. Imagine all of them nominated for a second round, hell :-) "Okay, bad luck, I'll try again next week" :-)
We had related discussions in previous nominations and the FP talk page, and I remember most of the people consider we have to wait a relatively long period of time before renominating a picture, unless there are modifications made since the last time. Which is not the case here. Best regards -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:52, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is similar to Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Couillet - chevalements de la mine du Pêchon - 7.jpg/2 also nominated by the same user ArionEstar = ArionStar = ★ with the reason "Per 6 supports × 0 opposes.". This result may impact the voting process in the future. Adam Cuerden is certainly aware of this "tacit rule" since he made this suggestion in the FPC talk page in 2019 . @Ikan Kekek: proposed to wait at least 12 months here. Like Daniel Case's procedural oppose, many participants agree. What others think? -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:28, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Portrait of Empress Maria Alexandrovna
  • Ask yourself, if we don't remove the patina on an FP of this, why should we remove it from other paintings? Restauration work on oil paintings should be done by a professional conservator-restorer to reveal the original colors, not by Photoshop. --Cart (talk) 20:08, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for your clarification. I confess that I recently went to see the Mona Lisa and I confess that I found a painting with the "original" or restored colors, very different from the image I had of the Mona Lisa for so many years. It left me with a taste of falseness in my mouth, and all the paintings seemed bluish. I still have that feeling of having seen a fake Mona Lisa, even though I know it was the original. In some old objects such as coins, restoring them reduces their value because during the restoration process the passage of time is removed and sometimes implies destruction of something. I remember having taken some other photos (not in the Louvre) where the light was yellow and direct on the painting, which made the painting turn yellowish and with a reflection that I had to carefully remove in post-production, but it was not easy to find a reference point for the true color without removing the natural coloring of the painting.

No. I'm not quite sure what you mean by over-sharpened. Isn't sharpness fixed when shooting?

  •  Comment I tried to photograph this monument a couple times during Wikimania, too, and found it surprisingly difficult (light, but also background/composition). I didn't wind up uploading any of them. Maybe better with a wide angle lens... — Rhododendrites talk16:08, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
  •  Comment Good point, thanks for the research, Yann. Regarding the different coloration, I found the following information in the Russian language WP article: In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the color of the lake changed to turquoise, and in 2008 to azure gray. The coloration of the lake is caused by tiny sulfur particles floating in the water column and carried by underwater fumaroles. This information might help to explain this one point.
