Support the landscape is under fog -- Ggia (talk) 19:47, 11 November 2010 (UTC)- Support --The High Fin Sperm Whale 19:58, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
Comment very good, but it seems a bit tilted ccw to me --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 20:02, 11 November 2010 (UTC)- Conditional Support as long as there are no stitching errors, would be strong if it weren't so cloudy (or is that smog?) --IdLoveOne (talk) 01:36, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support -- colors are weak and the picture is not so clear but it is teaching and technically very good. Mulazimoglu (talk) 07:00, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
Oppose -- Not the best meteorologic conditions for this kind of shot, resulting in washed-out colors and poor detail. Geometric distortion is obvious in the right part of the horizon. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:53, 12 November 2010 (UTC)- Comment this is the 'magic' of this photo.. the fog that part of the details are hidden. and in Istanbul (en:Istanbul#Climate) it is not exceptional to have fog.. so this weather conditions (colors etc) are not exceptional.. Ggia (talk) 16:34, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- and what about the tilt/distortion(s)? --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 16:58, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- till 16/11 I am traveling.. and I cannot re-stitch the images to see if it can be corrected.. this distortion is in the right side.. and I don't consider it as a fatal flaw. But as soon as I will have access to the source images (16/11) I will try to correct it. Ggia (talk) 17:13, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support--Wertuose (talk) 07:57, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
- Info the image has been updated.. no tilt-distortions in the right side. Ggia (talk) 09:35, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support now --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 12:26, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support why not! --Citron (talk) 16:57, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose Sorry, to me the fog doesn't make the scene seem magical, just dirty and polluted. --Avenue (talk) 09:24, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support Well made realistic photograph under difficult climatic conditions. The smog is reality in Istanbul, therefore it is ok to show it. --Michael Gäbler (talk) 22:28, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support Even if the right part (the boat alone) looks "unnecessary" to me, because out of the main subject. Very sharp at high resolution, good corrections IMO. Very illustrative and informative. I personally appreciate very much the choice of re-uploading improved versions after the beginning of the review, with Info to the reviewers, instead of "alternative" versions. It is fair and "clean" (literal and figurative sense of this word). Everybody can understand what happen, and the quality of the image increases. I hope this way should be a rule...--Jebulon (talk) 10:51, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Comment actually what I like most in this image is the boat alone in th right side with the smoke coming out of the chimney ;-). The direction of the boat is to the left (the boat is situated in the right side), and balances the composition. (IMO) Ggia (talk) 12:21, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- I understand what you mean. Matter of taste, then...I didn't say "ugly" though, I wrote "unnecessary", between "-"--Jebulon (talk) 14:49, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
