  • Decline Composition good. Lighting bad - green colour cast (even a green shadow on the monkeys arm), low light on face. Not quite in focus (or is that camera movement - only 1/100th shutter speed) --Tony Wills 08:23, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
• 
  khan 15:47, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Promotion I doubt the species identification, I see it was taken in a zoo so I guess you got the ID from there but I have lived in close proximity with red-necks and swamp wallabys (which I suspect this is) all my life, see the two red-necked wallaby photos of mine down lower on this page, they are much lighter and have a rufus coloring behind the ears and back of the neck, It's possible that this is a very dark phase, perhaps caused by the environment in the zoo or climate, but it is extremely dark for a red-neck benjamint Location of the animal suggest that ID is correct, I like hte composition.

  • Nomination Great White egret (Ardea alba alba) hunting for fish in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt. --Chris huh 11:35, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Decline Sharpness is not too good, but could be improved using an unsharp mask. A higher or lower viewpoint would have avoided the horizon cutting through the subject just at the wrong point. --MichaelMaggs 16:10, 22 March 2007 (UTC) And very noisy.---donald- 17:20, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

• 
  • Nomination Mongolia deserts--Arad 19:12, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

•

• 
  • Nomination Baltic Cup, Denmark 2006 --Malene Thyssen 23:33, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Decline Messy composition, tight crop, blown-out tent. The BG should be more out of focus to concentrate on the FG. --Dschwen 09:47, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
• 
  • Nomination Grib Forest. New beech leaves May 2005 --Malene Thyssen 23:33, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

• 
  • Nomination Yaquina Bay Bridge --Cacophony 01:37, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Consensual Review

• Nomination Fishing at Foz do Arelho beach, west coast of Portugal - Alvesgaspar 00:15, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
• Decline Good composition, but the surf is overexposed --Simonizer 10:48, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

•  Support I disagree that the blown highlights on some of the surf is a problem. Examining the surf shows it is very, very white but relatively few bits are actually over blown. There are a couple of reflections off the water that are over blown highlights. The overall image is not detracted from by these bright points, I would nominate it as QI. --Tony Wills 21:45, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
• Hmm, the surf isn't bothering me that much either, but there is considerable chrominance noise on the beach and there are precedences of QI declines for that. --Dschwen 17:14, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
•  Comment - Dschwen is right, but I have no idea what is the cause of the noise. This was originally a pretty big image (8Mb) and even with a downsample it wasn't possible to get rid of it. After all, the sun was to too strong for this kind of picture. Alvesgaspar 21:25, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Well upload the original and see if someone else can produce a better version! :-) --Tony Wills 22:00, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

• Nomination Memorial at the former site of the Synagogue in Goettingen, Germany. --Dschwen 15:28, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
• Promotion I vote for the abstract beauy of this picture despite some obvious photographic flaws. I think Escher would have liked this geometric pattern - Alvesgaspar 21:15, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm not disputing your promotion, but wondered if you want to transfer it to the alternative that I asked Dschwen to find - one that doesn't cut the corners of the 'star of david' geometric pattern. --Tony Wills 09:53, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

• Review needed

i have a question refering this picture and this other one who was already promoted. . i was about to decline the promotion of the first becouse it is overexposed. then by chance looked at the one already promoted, and it is also overexposed. so that i can not decline this one, in order to be fair i would have to promote it.

we have not a section to discuss weather or not images should be depromoted. so before making a mistake i wanted to ask your opinion. should it be promoted or not?

also we have several cases of pictures being simple crops from other QI. how far can this go?-LadyofHats 08:09, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

• From what I know about histograms, the second picture the red is a bit overexposed, but the panorama is not overexposed. Second, the other picture is not a simple crop of the panorama. It is a version of a picture that was included to make the panorama. --Digon3 16:39, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

• OK I'm not going to let this pass until it's clarified how it's made. We need a detailed information on the image page. Because the image claims it's impossible to have this in nature and it still doesn't say exactly what it is. When that is included by Benjamint444, I would support. If not, then the image is nothing special (we don't know what it is) and the quality can be much better. And those reflections which look like frost are also a major issue. --Arad 22:07, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
• I Agree theres a claim its impossible but look heres the photo, To be a QI it needs to have a description that makes the image useful to others. Without methods thats lacking, the haze around the glasses becomes a serious flaw that should result in it not being promoted unless it's cause is explained Gnangarra 11:58, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
• This looks fishy and I withdraw my support vote until the subject is clarified. It is OK to puzzle the users with our pictures, it is not OK trying to fool the reviewers. The author claims that the glasses were in an accelerating platform at the moment of the shot. However, that does not explain the frost or the weird texture of the "water" surface, as if it were frozen or made of some plastic material. Alvesgaspar 14:28, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

•  Info I withdrew the claim that it was impossible when I revised the description, I wasn't trying to hoodwink anyone by that. Anyone looking at it would see imediately that it was just taken with the subject and camera on an angle. As to the smokey reflections, it could be from the surface they were sitting on (which was not completely white) or nearly anything else since it was taken outside. It was water in a liquid state in the glasses though. --Benjamint444 03:39, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose Another thing you forgot to say is that this is a composite image, formed by three images of a single glass. I'm really having some difficulty in believing in your good faith. By the way, there is still an explanation in the picture file claiming the glasses are in an acelerating platform - Alvesgaspar 10:03, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
• OK, I still don't see any information explaining how it's made. Subject and the camera on an angle? What does that mean? And the image page should be updated when it's cleared. --Arad 14:29, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

The second time all I did was copy and paste the description sugested by Alvesgaspar, an image like this is not worth the effort; it's just the prototype of an image I would like to do with more ornate glasses.

Too much noise and a slightly skewed colour balance. Too little post processing has been attempted to make this potential candidate into a quality image. I'm not an expert, but had a go at denoising and downsampling in version 2 Lycaon 15:50, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree that your version is better. norro 16:12, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

I actually did use a photo editing tool for this image before uploading it. However, I didn't downsample it. I'm still getting used to the editing software and I'm sure I'll get better at it, but I'm not sure I agree with downsampling. As a thumbnail, the images look identical. There is a discussion going on regarding this on the talk page. --Jnpet 00:59, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

The downsampling I did was only minor, the denoising more substantial. Pictures will never be "used" as thumbnails (except on a website, ofcourse). Lycaon 18:17, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

I confess, I'm having a hard time seeing the difference between the two images. I see some shadows reduced, but not much else. The editing I had done was substantial, you should see the original image. Anyway, I would appreciate if you could tell me where this "noise" is so I can identify this in the future.

• Decline Good quality, but the depth of field is irritatingly small and there's some grain in the shadows. --Pharaoh Hound 13:57, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

The narrow depth of field is deliberate. The idea was to draw the eye to "The Book Of Isaiah" text and give a sense of depth to what could have been a flat, plain image of text.I am not sure what Pharaoh Hound means about the grain in the shadows. There is text from the underside of the page slightly showing through. This is a characteristic of Bibles which use a lighter than standard paper. I liked this effect.

That sort of leads me to a question (not sure if this is the place). On this Quality Image candidate page if one person likes (or dislikes the image for whatever reason) is that it? Its the opinion of whoever gets to the photo first? For example in my photo here of the Isaiah page, Pharaoh Hound found the depth of field irritating, whereas I tried hard to achieve the narrow depth of field and quite like it. Am I right thinking that if by chance someone who liked the effect came across the image before Pharaoh Hound and tagged it for promotion, then it would have been accepted?

Sorry for the question, this is my first time doing this.--Trounce 15:07, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

• You think you have an QI photo. The idea of this QI-page is to let the photo check from a second person. So you are right. The one who reviewed it first is the one who decideds if the photo is QI or not. But he should not judge it by personal liking, but by the guidlines (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Quality_images_guidelines). If you or another reviewer think he might be wrong with his decision, then you have the consensual review. Now other reviewers can give there opinion, and depending on whether they are supporting the decision of the reviewer or not your image will become QI.--Simonizer 12:11, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for clarifying that.--Trounce 14:46, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

I like the images idea a lot but the way this lens renders unsharp image parts (bookeh) is bad. There is heavy grain in the middle of the book. The DOF coud be even smaller to point out the title. Play with the lightening! --Ikiwaner 18:28, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

I personally would have said nothing about Depth of Field because to me the focus is on something that must be seem from its context in in the book, and either a whole shot of the entire book or a close-up of text alone would have detracted from its purpose.

• Promote, size is sufficient here Lycaon 18:39, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
• We're not here for Exact criteria, we're here to compare the photo with the criteria and 50px short of size is not enough to reject. --22:41, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

• Promotion Beautiful dog and mystical foggy colours. QI. --Lestat 16:45, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, beautiful dog and mystical colours, but the resolution is too small and it seems a little out of focus! --Simonizer 11:31, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Agree with Simonizer, also a bit overexposed. Lycaon 11:45, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

• Decline it is cut out below, but not above. and it mises just a tic contrast. speacially the stone againt the red-LadyofHats 22:43, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

• I don't agree with this opinion. Contrast and crop is good. Below is end of carvin. --Lestat 23:41, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Agree with LadyofHats on the crop, image is also slightly tilted CW. Not a QI. Lycaon 22:05, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

I would love to support this if the background wasn't red and it had a higher resolution to show more detail. Maybe we can edit it with photoshop and put a more balanced background? --66.36.139.108 23:00, 20 February 2007 (UTC) No voting rights. --Leyo 22:33, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
