- Comment – Nice photo. About this being in infobox: This shows a specific behavior and is shot from the back. The other female image is better for infobox. Either way, it has the same EV. Bammesk (talk) 15:14, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
- For those who have a specialist interest in birds Bammesk, the back feathers have as much relevance as the chest feathers and are often diagnostic. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:41, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

- Comment – The original upload's file size is small (310 KB). There is posterization (easy to see at the bottom). Bammesk (talk) 14:41, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
- What has the original file size got to do with it? Nothing wrong with it anyway. The image dimensions are almost the same. Image-processing software can make file sizes much bigger. Please only vote on the nominated photo unless you believe there has been unacceptable digital manipulation between two versions. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:37, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- Posterization and small file size (file compression) go hand in hand, see Posterization#Cause. Nominated image is posterized, because it's derived from the original upload which is also posterized due to its small file size. BTW, the file source says there is an uncompressed 18 MB version.

- Fascinating, but not a great quality reproduction. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:28, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
- We don't know the physical size of this painting, i.e. the scan/captured pixels-per-inch resolution. However, looking at it at full size (or larger), there is a writing in Arabic alphabet at the bottom left. Also there are small writings on many turbans (and collars). The painting is old so there is some natural fading, but still the writings on the turbans are so muddled (and indistinct) that I suspect insufficient capture/scan resolution. Bammesk (talk) 14:28, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
- Resolution is definitely not up to snuff, I see signs of it being a scan of a printed source; also damage in lower left corner. --Janke | Talk 07:58, 27 June 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose – Details aren't sharp on chest and neck (quality of the original upload is poor). We have a better/sharper FP of this bird on Commons here. Bammesk (talk) 03:43, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- The quality of the original out-of-camera-jpg upload Bammesk is totally irrelevant. This is the second time you've said this. Perhpas you do not understand post-processing. Post-processing technology has improved since 2017 and sophisticated software was used on the other image. In 2017 I did not process from RAW. You may be aware that inn photo competitions, photographers must be prepared to provide the out-of-camera-RAW file to check for untoward digital manipulation. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:27, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- I disagree that out-of-camera-jpg quality is irrelevant, because cameras don't put out poor quality jpegs when the RAW capture quality is good. But regardless of its relevance (or lack of), it's parenthetical; my oppose rationale precedes the parenthesis. The 'sophisticated' post-process difference (now versus 2017) is the 'Topaz AI' software (primarily to sharpen and denoise [1]). The enhancements fall short in my opinion in this case. Others can disagree. Bammesk (talk) 01:25, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
- On Canon, the quality of out-of camera jpgs depends on the jpg quality level chosen before you shoot an image. Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:30, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Don't think we should be looking at an older JPG when this has been processed from raw but the other image linked by Bammesk is indeed much better and should precede this one--Muhammad(talk) 09:07, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

- This image has been at the head of the article for 9 years (please verify for yoursef). Upload today was just to increase resolution which was the point of contention when this image was presented for POTD in 2012. See FP criterion #5. Please consider revoting on this basis. --HeartSpoon (talk)
- The image hasn't been in the infobox continuously for 9 years - in fact, May 10th to June 26 it wasn't in the article at all, and currently, it's not. I'll let others decide if that makes it ineligible or not. (Added proviso to my oppose above. There's an ongoing discussion on the article's talk page: [[2]]) --Janke | Talk 07:58, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
- But if you look BEFORE those couple of months this year, it's about 9 consecutive years. The point is, this is not a new image. HeartSpoon (talk)
- I think that rule is meant to quickly disqualify images that get uploaded and added into the article purely for a FP nom; clearly not that case here. Belle (talk) 12:09, 6 July 2021 (UTC)

- For my education only, how is this poorly composed, say, to the turkey above it? --HeartSpoon (talk)
- Oppose I agree with the above comments about the trunk and I'm also distracted by the large branches on the ground behind the dog which break up its outline. I'm also distracted by odd noises and balloons; though this has nothing to do with the picture, it will come in useful if you are trying to stealthily steal my purse.

- Support This photo, and similar photos, are often used to illustrate the Allied success in the Normandy landings in books and the like and has very strong EV. Consider what the photo shows: the day after the bloody and almost-defeated landing at Omaha Beach, it has been tidied up and is being used to land large numbers of troops and vehicles in broad daylight. The troops are bunched together and the landing craft appear to be operating freely, which illustrates that the Germans were unable to hinder the follow-up landings. This was the foundation on which the Allied victory was built. 08:22, 8 July 2021 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nick-D (talk • contribs)

- @Belle and 245CMR: I'm not sure. I used to adjust the color balance in my previous uploads, but it was a point of contention especially from those with museum curation background. So nowadays I upload stuff as-is. I doubt that it changed on the Google Arts side, as I saw that a new ID gets assigned. For example, the Stoclet Frieze by Klimt has been uploaded twice. In any case, please feel free to reupload the image if it is clear that there is a difference. Avindratalk 14:56, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
- The colour is noticeably different from the original upload. It's better looking but unless there is some reference for the change it probably shouldn't be changed (unless you put it in day glo colours on a black background in which case I'd definitely support) Belle (talk) 01:00, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

- Reason
- I nominated Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Dumbarton Rail Bridge with a previous version of this photo. My friend, who is a very good photographer, saw this and sent me the following message: "
jesus you nommed this thing? cringe
". After some helpful advice, I was able to go out and take a far better photo, which I present here for your consideration here. As with the other one, I think it's a well-composed photo that clearly, distinctly and effectively shows the thing it's a photo of, brings encyclopedic value to the articles it's on, and is pretty. - Articles in which this image appears

- @Nick-D: My understanding is that this rule didn't apply in cases where an image was an improved version of a previous one (the previous one here being File:Dumbarton Rail Bridge 2021.JPG). If this isn't the case, I would be happy to withdraw. Well, not happy, I'd be a little embarrassed at having misinterpreted it, but you get the idea. jp×g 07:55, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
- I think that this is a fairly different picture, given the lighting is quite different - sunset photos are pretty, but not always the best for EV, so I think that this needs to be in the various articles for a while for reviewers to have confidence that it is accepted by the relevant editors. Nick-D (talk) 07:57, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

- An FP on Commons. Shirts with figurative art are rare, so this is significant both as a work of art and a piece of religious symbolism. This photograph has a very high resolution.

- Reason
- I think this is a good photograph of a relatively uncommon event; not only does it show the immediate aftermath of a wildfire (which was still burning when I took this photo -- maybe that makes it the duringmath), it also shows the effectiveness of techniques used to contain it, with sharp contrast between the charred carbon to the left of the firebreak and the intact vegetation to its right. I also took a different picture of the same fire, which shows the same thing (burnt material to the left of a firebreak and unburnt material to its right) as well as some dramatic stuff like still-burning fires, atmospheric haze, et cetera -- but it's a little blurrier, and doesn't show the firebreaks as clearly.
