Info created & uploaded by David Gubler - nominated by Ivar (talk) 13:13, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
Support -- Ivar (talk) 13:13, 24 August 2020 (UTC)- Support Maybe not one of Kabelleger's best but I like it anyway. The thing that elevates it to FP for me are the figures in orange jackets, one of them looking at the camera and carrying a shovel to scoop snow. It means that this photo isn't just a snapshot, it tells a story - of men working hard to battle tough weather conditions and keep the trains running. Cmao20 (talk) 15:49, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- Support --Uoaei1 (talk) 16:20, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
Oppose It's a picture of good atmosphere, but not composed as well as it could be. The train is not really reaching the foreground and so I am missing some depth. --Augustgeyler (talk) 16:40, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
Abstain Thanks for the nomination! I like this photo very much for the light and the scene, but IMHO the image quality isn't there for FP. The (well, at least my) 24-70 f2.8L II just isn't very good at f2.8 and the picture might even have a slight front focus. --Kabelleger (talk) 17:01, 24 August 2020 (UTC)- Support Christian Ferrer (talk) 17:38, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
Comment I think the quality is there for this to be an FP, considering that it's shot in a snowstorm, and I agree with Cmao20's argument, but it's hard to support a photo the photographer doesn't support. Kabelleger, do you think the nomination should be withdrawn, and/or would you vote against it? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:56, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- I noticed the slight unsharpness/lack of focus, it's the reason I said I don't think it's one of Kabelleger's best. I will keep my support though unless Kabelleger chooses explicitly to vote against. Cmao20 (talk) 19:03, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I just added my opinion, no more, no less. I'm very happy if other people think that its other merits make up for the slight quality issues. Should it be withdrawn? I see no reason to. Would I vote agains it? No, I choose abstain because it is my photo. I do not feel qualified to vote on my photos, but I do feel qualified to give an informal opinion. --Kabelleger (talk) 19:12, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Not the best framing/composition. Too much blank space at the bottom, and messy wires at the top. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:54, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Per King --StellarHalo (talk) 05:09, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
- Support per others and my comments above. A little bit of snowy space in the foreground is fine for me and the wires are good for the eyes to move around. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:17, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Agree with KoH Poco a poco (talk) 19:16, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
- Abstain I do not feel more qualified than Kabelleger to vote on this photos, but I agree with him, KoH and Augustgeyler -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:12, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose per David. Composition could indeed be improved by the right crop, but no point in suggesting it when it's this unsharp. Daniel Case (talk) 03:42, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination --Ivar (talk) 04:24, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
