光暗度

[edit]

在讨论图像的光暗度的时候，投票者有必要知道他们的屏幕显示有否被适当地调整。不同的屏幕显示，它们显示阴影细节的能力亦大有不同。旁边为一幅画了四个暗灰色的圆圈的图片。如果您能辨明其中三个（甚至四个）圈子，那表示你的的屏幕可以正确地显示阴影细节。如果你只能够看到三个以下的圈子，你可能需要调整你的屏幕以及/或者电脑显示设置。一些显示设备可能无法被调整至观察阴影细节的最理想度数，故此请在投票的时候考虑这点。如果可行的话，也可以考虑把它打印出来。

色彩度

[edit]

在伽玛调整的屏幕显示上从几尺之外观看右图，图中四个不同颜色的圈子会自然混入背景之中。如果他们完全跟背景混合，你则须要调校你的伽玛设置（在电脑的输出设置上，而不在于屏幕显示），直到它们能彼此融合。调校的过程也许会非常困难，然而轻微的偏差并不是致命伤。未能更正的个人电脑显示通常会显示出比背景深色的圈子。请注意，在液晶显示（无论膝上电脑或者平面屏幕）上观看图片，你的观看角度有很大可能影响屏幕上的图像质素。如有需要，请点击图像以获得更多技术信息。

No, it's supposed to be natural :-) And please, assume good faith, it's your work. You should know (better than us) what you've done in the sky -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:29, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You brought it up, so I'm interested in what you consider being "artificial" in the sky. Is it about emphasising the structure of the Milky Way (high/low or white/black)? I don't understand, assuming good faith, what you're getting at. A. Öztas (talk) 04:37, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. "Emphasising the structure". "High / low, white / black" -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:52, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Will you also explain why you quote it like that or do you want me to guess? A. Öztas (talk) 04:58, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You guessed well and put words (your own words) on the issue mentioned above -- Basile Morin (talk) 06:04, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I honestly don't think a painting brush was used, the milky way has brighter borders on each side that can naturally be captured by long exposure photos -- Giles Laurent (talk) 09:53, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Giles Laurent: , thanks for your comment. Please take a look at the 3 versions in the history. Resize them at the same size, and superimpose them, each separately. Then you realize very clearly that yes, a painting brush was used. Moreover, it's very possible also that the initial upload was already more or less heavily edited. In this version, the center of the sky is too dark, and certainly not faithful -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:32, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I still don't know exactly what you mean by painting brush - it's the first time I've heard the term in this context - but if you mean masking, I've already commented on this with regard to the white and black levels. I'm just surprised at the astonishment, as this is a common process in image processing. Or are we talking at cross purposes? A. Öztas (talk) 13:11, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Painting brush" is the official name on many software editors, isn't it? Usually an icon with a "painting brush" 🖌. Now there's a 4th version uploaded. Not yet observed. But If you darken selectively some areas here and there, while the sky is supposed to be a giant uniform surface, it makes it fake -- Basile Morin (talk) 13:41, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for clarifying, what you mean. By your reasoning, wouldn't most photos then qualify as "fake", not only on FP? We can discuss this matter on my talk page, if you want. This would not only apply to (even slight) HDR images but also to those where, for example, a building is subtly emphasized. If you set the threshold for "fake" at any adjustment that doesn’t globally affect the entire image, then so be it — at least that's a clear position. As for the term "painting brush", as I mentioned earlier, I wasn't familiar with it in this context. In the software I use, this tool is called "draw mask". Either way, I hope we’ve now discussed this topic thoroughly. --A. Öztas (talk) 18:45, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Discussion continues below and I'm also interested in talking with other participants, having different points of view -- Basile Morin (talk) 22:50, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've just checked the picture on my computer (I was previously on my phone) and it seems you were right that a painting brush was used.
However I don't think the result is very different at first sight from adjusting curves/exposure adjustments, which is something a lot of people do and the result doesn't look unatural to me (especially if you compare it to something really unnatural like this). But perhaps the center of the milky way was darkened too much (it's not supposed to be that much darker) and perhaps the brighter part shouldn't have been brightened with a paiting brush but with a global exposure/contrast adjustment because looking at thumbnail we see the brushstrokes and comparing it to the previous version, the brighter parts changed shape and were extended, which in the end changed a bit the shape of the milky way and is something that shouldn't happen.
Also, there's one other new thing I've noted now, there's a strange change change of exposure in this zone that might be improved -- Giles Laurent (talk) 17:28, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Should be fixed, both. --A. Öztas (talk) 18:45, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Abstain Painting brush removed. @Giles Laurent: there's a noticeable difference between the second-third-fourth and the fifth version, and in the previous ones, there was no reason to darken artificially some zones in the sky so as to create strong and unnatural contrasts. Thanks for pointing this out, and for confirming the manipulation was not only my subjective impression. The sky is supposed to be flat. So the normal processing in this case is not local touches but should be global, yes -- Basile Morin (talk) 22:50, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yes, and sharpness could be better too. I'm honestly not sure about this one. I made this downsample which is 8.5 megapixels and better but still corner sharpness isn't great. But the motif is really cool so unsure how to vote, will think about this one. Cmao20 (talk) 01:46, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SHORT DESCRIPTION
+ The author created the image to be viewed as you see it. It is not okay for the viewer to download the image to their computer, make changes in Photoshop, and then find errors. If you don't see errors right away, then there are none. You can ruin any image in Photoshop, but the author doesn't create the image so that someone can edit it in Photoshop. Janeklass (talk) 04:58, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  What?! "make changes in Photoshop, and then find errors"? I would be the last person to do that. And it's very clear from the file page that you are the sole and only uploader. You're of course free to do what you like with your pictures, but for me it's a similar case to this one or that one nominated last week. Sorry to be allowed to review here... When I read Ikan's review below ("I do see details well"), I had the impression it was a mirror of my comment (now crossed out) above ("Some details look interesting"). I got curious and then noticed the stacking issues. Please fix these errors like in this nomination. By the way, where do you find that "It is not okay for the viewer to download the image to their computer"? -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:13, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    You downloaded the image to your computer, increased the light in Photoshop, and then you saw the errors. The "errors" you pointed out do not disturb or affect the image. I am very sorry, but I think your assessment is unfair and is not given because they somehow affect the photo, but because you just want to scold. Janeklass (talk) 05:29, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • You darkened the image, not me ("background made darker" in your summary). And you made this change without notifying a (weak) supporter writing "Definitely too dark for me", nor other participants who could also find the image (really) too dark now. Photoshop helps to find potential issues like wrong embedded color profiles (which can make the appearance vary from a computer to another, example here). This was done to help you. It was a tool. But the stacking issues (now located) also appear in the current version -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:49, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    You raised the light and only then did you see errors that were otherwise not visible. For me, they do not affect the image and the problem does not exist. If you add light, you can see all sorts of things. As an author, the light is set the way I want it and it is not intended to be changed by anyone else. Janeklass (talk) 06:28, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  1. You darkened the picture (for everyone, not only for me). Proof in the history of the file page and in the summary you left. Given the critics (here and elsewhere by other participants), it would have been more judicious to brighten the picture instead of the contrary. Otherwise it's like you want to hide the mistakes. You also hide the whole content in this blackness.
  2. No, my first impression was : "Some details look interesting at the bottom". But because it was dark, it could be a wrong impression. Confirmation (I mean denial of "interesting details") comes now, yes. Same as here. I think light should be adjusted and FS problems resolved -- Basile Morin (talk) 06:52, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Your words " + After increasing the light on Photoshop, I also notice focus stacking errors. Image notes added". I'm referring to the fact that you didn't see the errors before you increased the light. So you amplified the errors yourself, which are otherwise not so visible and they don't affect the overall impression of the image. But okay, I added a little more light and I won't change this file any more Janeklass (talk) 07:00, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment If my eyes are good, there is no difference in the light between the first version and this one? And your words "It is not okay for the viewer to download the image to their computer"... and worse: "the author doesn't create the image so that someone can edit it in Photoshop." Apologies, but this idea "If you don't see errors right away, then there are none" sounds a bit clumsy, according to the ton of similar nominations where errors / stitching problems are detected in the middle or even at the end of the voting period. A bunch of examples available in the archives. Currently the focus stacking errors are still present. Thus I don't change my vote -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:07, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Editing an image to amplify small flaws that aren't actually visible is very strange behavior to me. Janeklass (talk) 09:30, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Very visible now, even in the darkness. And also at the top right.
  2. Could be fixed / uploaded by someone else (not necessarily you).
  3. Alternative could be proposed. At least for the FS issues. Then it's a democratic choice. Could be also delisted and replaced by a more accurate version later. If you change your mind, or if someone else improves your image.
  4. Like it or not, that's how it works, actually. And how divergent opinions offer chances to improve.
  5. It's a mistake to believe that the purpose of increasing the light was "to amplify flaws". Certainly anyone else would / will do the same as observer or re-user, because it's very dark, then trying to evaluate the content fairly and see it under more favorable conditions is useful and / or necessary. The FS flaws popped up at this moment, and were not expected. Most of the users here are happy to meet the opportunity to correct their own images -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:16, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I am happy to correct mistakes when I see that the criticism is relevant. At this moment, I feel that the criticism has been overdone and criticized for the sake of criticizing. These "mistakes" are not visible in the picture and do not spoil the picture. Janeklass (talk) 11:28, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
These mistakes have just been revealed a few hours ago. And first reaction, you darkened the image, which had the effect of making the situation worse, and lengthening the discussion for everyone. It would undoubtedly be wiser to fix the issues like here or there. See also this interesting case -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:59, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't darken the image because of your alleged "errors". I cropped the image and at the same time noticed lighter areas in the background and thought that the background would be better completely black. Janeklass (talk) 14:51, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm... noticed something, too? For the record, you said "If you don't see errors right away, then there are none.". You changed the crop? You changed the light? Twice, already? Yes, things happen / appear in the light of a discussion, like in the light of a (well-exposed) photo -- Basile Morin (talk) 15:21, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You can keep your opinion. I'll stick to my position and won't fix alleged errors that aren't actually visible and don't affect the image. Besides, this picture's value lies elsewhere for me (and for Wikipedia). What we actually see in the picture is much more important here - whether it ranks among the best is secondary. In my opinion, Wikipedia isn't Instagram, and I add pictures that have genuine informative value. Janeklass (talk) 03:35, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
🛑Stop it now. "You can keep your opinion" and other derogatory comments written above are against COM:CIVIL. All various and subjective opinions here are welcome and encouraged on this section, per the guidelines at COM:FPC "A well-written review helps participants (photographers, nominators and reviewers) improve their skills by providing insight into the strengths and weaknesses of a picture. Explain your reasoning, especially when opposing a candidate". You don't like criticisms, this does not give you permission to be disrespectful to those who don't share your view. You voted above, fine, we all respect your choice, did not contest anything. Do the same, please. Now enough. It's an open project. -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:34, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is the author's position not important, or do you always have to agree with criticism? If so, I will try to improve myself in the future and will not engage in further discussion.
For now, this discussion is over for me. Janeklass (talk) 05:00, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Very good. -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:18, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support When we want to show people walking on a city street the background will usually be busy; somehow the variety of the city must be included – if the background consists just of windows reflecting the sky or a wall we would not get the feeling that we are in the downtown. The vanishing lines of the row of cars on the left and of the buildings on the right, which converge above the centre of the picture, bring order to the composition; the woman seems to be walking towards this vanishing point, her placement slightly to the left adds tension to the composition. This placement, the bright colours of her clothing and the out-of-focus background make her stand out clearly from the background. For me, this is a good example of an intense, orderly and yet dynamic composition in the middle of the variety of a city centre. – Aristeas (talk) 16:14, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion about technical details
  • I wonder why Bill Ingalls (given that he is/was a professional photographer) did not pay more attention to details, both in the composition (which he could have checked calmly before the start) and in the post-processing (which is done later). We can accept the leaning verticals, but the cropped flowers at the bottom are unsatisfying (either there should be more of them in the frame or they should have been cut off completely), the CAs are obvious and (given the low resolution) quite prominent. And the whole image, which has been underexposed to preserve the highlights, should have been brightened in post-processing. Given the incredible expenditure necessary for space missions, one could expect a bit more care from the photographer, too. – Aristeas (talk) 10:50, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
     Comment I'm pretty sure this specific type of picture is taken remotely. The focal length is 16mm in full frame, it's unlikely a person would be allowed this close to a rocket launch. Chromatic aberration might have been corrected, I agree. I know what you mean about preservation of highlights and underexposure, but I think the key to this picture being "wow" are the dramatic steam clouds. To make them dramatic, you need the darker shadows within them. Even if you correct the levels to enhance the dark foreground with flowers, you might make the vapor cloud less dramatic and therefore the photo less "wow". Of course, it's possible to make a feathered selection of the grass/flowers area and correct it while preserving dramatic vapor, but I'm not sure it's allowed for journalistic type of photos from NASA.

     Comment Of course I did not want to say that this is a bad photo; it has much “wow” and high educational value. I just stumbled over a certain disparity between the incredible expenditure and expense for such a space mission on the one hand and a certain lack of care for the details shown by the photographer on the other hand. – You are certainly right that this photo has been taken remotely; and I would also assume that the camera was set to continuous shooting (burst mode), so the photographer triggered remotely the start of the continuous series and this is just one photo selected from that series. That’s all fine. I just meant that whoever has placed the camera on the tripod (or whatever) before could have thought a little bit longer about the framing. You are also completely right that the underexposure is intentional and correct in order to get a good image of the dramatic steam clouds. I just think that whoever has processed the raw image file later could have spent a little bit more time to remove the CAs and to lift the exposure again, just to achieve a more realistic impression. It should not even be necessary to make a feathured selection of the dark parts; just increasing the exposure by e.g. 0.25 EV, reducing the highlights by 0.25 EV and increasing the brightness of the shadows by 0.5 EV or so would already improve the image without sacrificing the clouds or adulterating the realistic impression. No offence, I really appreciate your selection of this photo and (as said above) just stumbled about the details. – Aristeas (talk) 11:15, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Also this one by "AstroAnthony" is clearly a fake. There might be many other manipulations by this uploader (I don't want to waste hours examining each with a magnifying glass). It is not worth risking another time-consuming delisting process after potential POTY qualification like the previous case. -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:21, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sure, if the author could provide the RAWs I would be happy to reconsider, but I think it's fair to assume that images by this user may be photomontages, particularly if they look 'too good to be true', and to vote accordingly. Cmao20 (talk) 02:59, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Courtyard and workers’ houses below high factory chimneys in Nikiszowiec, Katowice, Poland
  • ✓ Improved file uploaded Thank you for the constructive feedback, Basile. The bluish hue of the right chimney has been removed. You are right about the different shades of red, I already noticed this during the development. On site, they actually look like this, I suspect the red paint on the right chimney is either older than the left one, or was a different quality of paint that allows the azo dyes to fade faster due to ultraviolet radiation. Here are a few examples from the same month this year, where you can see that they are just as different as in my photo: 01, 02, 03, 04 and 05. If you compare these with a photo from 10 years ago, the suspected UV light bleaching seems reasonable. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 10:33, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Thanks to both of you! This is a very interesting hint, Basile. I wanted to answer that the difference seems to be mostly real, as other photos show, but Radomianin has already explained this and also improved the image – great! Best, – Aristeas (talk) 10:52, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Follow-up  Comment Jerzy, this is really a lovely and wonderful photo, I (and other users) would really like to become it a Featured picture. We just think that the post-processing is not up to what your photo deserves. Modern tools allow to reduce the image noise greatly without sacrificing details (as old-styled noise removal did), therefore the new tools have rapidly become standard especially with wildlife photos. Just contact Poco a poco or e.g. Radomianin or me if you would appreciate a little help with this. Best, – Aristeas (talk) 10:57, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks to Aristeas for his engagement. The photo is too beautiful to let this nomination die. SwissTransfer link provided: This version is similar to Poco's (thanks for the edit), but in mine the colors are closer to the photographer's original. However, the degree of denoising and sharpness is similar to Poco's version. If you and the community find the edit acceptable, feel free to use it for an update.

Photographically the focus is wrong (and the crop tight at the left), it's a shame, but this image has its own story (and yes, also own article on en-wiki). It has become an iconic photograph. We should take this into account.
Finally, a reminder about the voting process. COM:FPC: The meaning of the image should be judged according to the cultural context of the image, not by the cultural context of the observer. An image "speaks" to people, and it has the capacity to evoke emotion such as tenderness, rage, rejection, happiness, sadness, etc. Good photographs are not limited to evoking pleasant sensations... -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:37, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Milky Way
  •  Comment It is certainly a lot better, but I don't know how much of the colours here are trustworthy. It's hard to know how far the original manipulations went and thus how far they should be reversed. Cmao20 (talk) 22:19, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Many thanks to Cmao20 and Giles for your evaluations. It is difficult to adjust saturation and level values based on guesswork when the original file is not available. But I didn't want to leave it untried. I created a second version in which I reduced the brightness, contrast and saturation values significantly: SwissTransfer link 2/2. There are still a few days left until the end of the nomination period and I'm still hoping that the author will respond with his personal feedback. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 00:12, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • The green and red colors in the sky still come out of nowhere and don't exist in reality. There's also many blue weird zones in the black zones that look like it was painted (I think they are remains of the painting brush used to darken the sky). The whites also seem a bit too illuminated. And also the black part of the sky is underexposed in my opinion (but underexposed because of the way it was edited by painting it darker and not by the way of taking the photo). I think the image has to be reworked from raw because the way it was edited to make everything else than the milky way much darker probably caused details to be lost there -- Giles Laurent (talk) 21:44, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yes, I hear you. I guess it's more a matter of taste and what the image is being used for. In my opinion, for a piece of art to be hung on the wall, it would be wonderful. But in an encyclopedic context, the heavy-handed processing is just to much. At least for me. Given the artistic merit, I'd be perfectly ok with it being promoted.--Frank Schulenburg (talk) 16:37, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
