It is, in fact, quite long, it's not a small cove, but that's not the issue. It's certainly possible to make a panorama from one of these viewpoints, but it's not possible to merge the views from the two opposite points into one, hence the set. The Cosmonaut (talk) 15:17, 22 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Lago di Carezza and Latemar, Carezza, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy
 Comment I can zoom in to 200% and scroll around in the top right corner but I cannot see any of the claimed artifacts. Also I can't make out any of the claimed chromatic aberrations in the mountains. Granada (talk) 12:06, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. I have noticed this forum growing rather paranoid about CA lately. In the past I've nominated pictures that do have slight chromatic aberrations but are extremely high resolution and otherwise good quality, and they have passed without opposition; lately I've seen opposes for CA that is so minor that I genuinely cannot see any evidence of it whatever. Perhaps standards are changing...I'd appreciate a note to show where this has been noticed. Cmao20 (talk) 12:29, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for nomination! I'm a bit confused about the CA and artefact claims as well. I can't see anything drastic myself. I've definitely had worse examples of CA in some of my other pictures, and tbh I don't personally feel too bothered about a little bit of CA. I think it's quite natural thing, that I sometimes fix a bit if I feel like it. The artefacts, I can't seem to find them on my screen. Surely they can't be that bad, because... uh? The other thing I can address a bit: Yeah, I honestly have a habit of downscaling, and it's purely my preference how I like to view my images when at 100%. I don't want to downscale much, but that's how I like to look at them. (I'm not so interested in evaluating how perfect the lenses are at every situation, or how well camera bodies translate the lens qualities into pixel clusters of varying quality at different corners of image at the full size. Instead, at 100% I like the eye to wander in the details of the landscape itself at that particular resolution, at the level of detail where everything worthy is still there identifiable, if that makes sense.) In short, I just want them to have just the appropriate amount of detail to be "perfect" for Wikipedia articles. The second reason is, i'm still a bit paranoid about where all my pictures might end up, so to ease my anxiety, I still like to have the original files and image sizes in my personal storage as a proof of original ownership. Greetings, --Ximonic (talk) 18:45, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Found some artefact patches and removed them. Looked like different level of pixel noise. They were very faint atleast for me - I had to really look closely to find them. --Ximonic (talk) 19:01, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for dropping in to make improvements and talk about your photo, Ximonic. You are most welcome for the nomination. I can see the artefacts now that I compare the before and after, but agree that they were very faint indeed! Cmao20 (talk) 19:11, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Stunning view and likely a POTY finalist or even winner. There is a very slight CA but only visible at very high zoom, so it is negligible. But I've noticed that original was 6,720х4,480px. Is the photo is cropped or downscaled? Юрий Д.К. 13:18, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you, agree. I have to go to 300% zoom to see anything that looks like colour fringing! Most of Ximonic's pictures seem to be cropped pretty extensively, often from larger panoramas. Cmao20 (talk) 16:02, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • UnpetitproleX, I am not sure how 'I can't see any signs of CA at all' is accusatory. (I won't address the other instances you felt were accusations, because I didn't say them.) It was merely a statement of fact. I couldn't see any, because it had not occurred to me that I was supposed to zoom in to 300% to see it. I will be honest, I absolutely think an issue does not matter if it is only visible at 300% zoom. I would call it pixel peeping. It is irrelevant to artistic enjoyment of the photograph, irrelevant to realistic use cases of the photograph in Wikimedia projects, and irrelevant to any realistic use case of the photograph by any third party reuser. If it is a standard practice to judge an image at FPC based on CAs at more than 100% zoom, then it is in my opinion a wrong practice and ought to change. You are free to have a different opinion, and you may of course choose to oppose images for this reason. But I am also free to speak my mind, and I don't think my tone was (or is) hostile. I fully stand by my original comments - I can't see any signs of CA at all at any magnification that I personally believe it is reasonable to judge a photograph. Cmao20 (talk) 10:57, 26 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • Im sorry but this is in fact a clear example of pixel peeping, one of the most notorious I've seen in almost 20 years experience on FPC. UnpetitproleX you don't even seem to care about the image resolution. I've to ask you to discontinue with this practice. It will just frustrate authors, reviewers and yourself, and if it makes a difference in the end, then we'll have more downsampling. Poco a poco (talk) 17:58, 26 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • Cmao20 I could see the multiple patches of artefacts (multiple as in more than one, patches as in portions of the image and just not some pixels) at less than 100% zoom and the CA at 100% zoom. Your personal inability to see them at less than 300% does not mean others can not. The accusations, now, of "pixel peeping" by you and Poco a poco, with whose image I pointed out similar issues though did not oppose since there were no patches of artefacts in it, are frankly offensive. I will continue to review nominations. UnpetitproleX (Talk) 03:02, 27 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • UnpetitproleX, no, they're not offensive. Sorry but they're just not. You may feel offended by them but that does not make them offensive, sorry. I didn't ask you not to continue to review nominations so am unsure why you are acting like I did. You have a right to your opinion and you may oppose any and all of my nominations if you wish. But I have a right to point out that I think your opinion is bad and that criticising images for such miniscule technical failings (as opposed to more substantive issues such as composition, light, and quality at sensible zoom levels) is bad for the project and makes FPC worse. Please don't try to shut down my right to my opinions by calling politely-expressed viewpoints that happen to conflict with your own opinions 'offensive.' Cmao20 (talk) 05:32, 27 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
    • I just don’t believe multiple large patches of visible artefacts are 'minuscule', and I’d be surprised if anyone thought so. You may believe me pointing out those patches are pixel peeping and "make FPC worse" but I don’t. Such accusations I do find offensive.
    UnpetitproleX (Talk) 05:46, 27 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, it seems that everyone else did think so, as the picture did not pick up any criticism from any other voter and even the creator could barely see the issues, but alright, this discussion will not be productive. I wish you all the best even though I wish you would be willing to tolerate civil disagreement. Cmao20 (talk) 05:56, 27 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
    I don’t think everyone said the multiple large patches of visible artefacts were minuscule, only that the CAs were minor—which I also said—but we’re all allowed to draw our own conclusions. I’m just glad those patches were removed, a FP shouldn’t have such issues, even if the minor CAs are still there. I wish people would be less hostile to those pointing out issues and not accuse them of inventing those. UnpetitproleX (Talk) 07:39, 27 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Windeck Castle, Bühl
The Image is 218% of native camera quality, maybe stitched panorama?, if yes, need to be added the panoramic template. depicts (P180) statement, MediaInfo has no "depicts" statement and the file description has no {{Depicts}} / {{Wikidata}} template either. This is the structured-data equivalent of categories: it tells other Wikimedia projects, search engines, and reuse tools what the image is of. Add at least one depicts entry on the file page, for example the Wikidata item for the main subject. Wilfredor (talk) 13:46, 1 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Question I have been uploading images to Commons since 2009, over 10,000 in total. For none of them was it necessary to add a {{Depicts}} / {{Wikidata}} template.

Stairway of Casa Milá
  • Gallery: Commons:Featured pictures/Objects/Architectural elements#Stairs
  •  Info Here is a risky nomination I can't resist to, due to my fascination for the creations of Antonio Gaudi. I have included two pictures of the stairway of Casa Milá because I found it difficult to make justice to its beauty with a single one. Yes, I do love what the French call Art Nouveau and the Spanish Modernism. All by Alvesgaspar (talk) 21:13, 24 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 21:13, 24 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support It is a beautiful building notwithstanding several technical flaws of the photographs (such as blown highlights, lack of sharpness, etc -- but you are no doubt already aware). The official regulations prohibit bringing a "professional camera" so probably we can't do much better than the Fujifilm X-T5 (although I am also disappointed in the X-T5, I thought it would be a lot better, but I checked your EXIF data and found your settings to be optimal for the situation). Overall, the harmonious textures and smooth curves are very nice. However, the regulations also mention that photography "requires special authorisation" and that the "Organization reserves the right to take legal action for the publication of any graphic, audiovisual or digital material of La Pedrera without prior authorization", which seems rather at odds with a free license for Commons. Would that be a problem? But I suppose Gaudi died 100 years ago and the copyright has expired so the architecture itself is public domain. dllu (talk) 23:12, 24 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment. The nomination should probably be withdrawn and, I assume, the images deleted. "No photos, video and/or sound recordings may be made or broadcast from the Basilica for commercial, advertising or dissemination (my emphasis) purposes without written authorisation in advance from the Foundation" Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:23, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • The rules you cite probably apply to the Sagrada Familia basilica, not Casa Milá. The norms concerning Casa Milá are much more ambiguous. By the way, there are hundreds of photos of this building in Commons.-- Alvesgaspar (talk) 09:49, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think these are the rules of Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera which runs the place. Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:42, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • In my understanding (but I'm not familiar with Spanish law), Gaudi and the other artists who worked here have been dead long enough for their work to be public domain, and the organization operating this place can claim whatever they want, they have no legal basis to restrain the use of any pictures taken here. A lot of organizations running heritage buildings have similar "rules" (in France, the RMN even claims it owns copyright on Renaissance paintings), but thankfully, there are laws and the simple fact that some organization says you can't do something doesn't make it true. --Benji 08:11, 27 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support --Petro Stelte (talk) 16:33, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Contrast is to high, composition is not interesting, colors neither. Despite you could out 2 original into set nomination. --Mile (talk) 17:18, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I think the atmosphere of the photos, and the presentation as a diptych, is artistic and elegant. I hope the pictures do not have to be deleted. I won't comment on that, as it is out of scope for what I'm judging here. Cmao20 (talk) 18:19, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose -- Per Mile, I think one photo with better postprocessing would do the job. Now it's kinda unappealing, mostly because of the colors. And I had to think to figure out that it was the same staircase from above and below. It's not that obvious. -- Krigore (talk) 09:45, 26 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose -- Per Mile and Krigore, the technical quality of this picture is not good enough (although I understand it is difficult to do better in a crowded place with restrictions on photography), the result is not appealing and I don't think making one file out of the two pictures was a good idea. --Benji 08:11, 27 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose No doubt that the place offers a bunch of possible FPs but I don't think that these images illustrate the beuty of the place. I agree that the images are not appealing (porbably not the nicest motives), look overporocessed and the light management is not the best either. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poco a poco (talk • contribs) 08:24, 27 June 2026 (UTC) Ineligible to vote: unsigned vote --Wilfredor (talk) 22:42, 3 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Mediterranean moray (Muraena helena), Catania, Sicily, Italy
  • Gallery: Commons:Featured pictures/Animals/Fish#Family_:_Muraenidae_(Moray_Eels)
  •  Info Mediterranean moray (Muraena helena) with a prey, Catania, Sicily, Italy. Mediterranean moray or Roman eel (Muraena helena) is a fish of the moray eel family. It has a long eel-like body and is found in coastal waters of the eastern Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. It prefers rocky bottoms and lives in depths of from 5 to 80 meters (16.5 to 264 feet). It is a solitary and territorial species. This moray spends most of the day in cavities and clefts between rocks and is more active at night. It hunts fish, crayfish and cephalopods, but also feeds on dead animals. A bite with its long and sharp-pointed teeth can be dangerous to humans also due to the mildly toxic slime of its skin. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 21:40, 29 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Add at least one depicts entry on the file page, for example the Wikidata item for the main subject --Wilfredor (talk) 02:44, 1 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • I expect that somewhen our tools get a bit more intelligent with help of AI and I don't need to fill out additional 5 more fields than I do now. For example, if I upload the image to iNaturalist it will tell mostly what is the species depicted on the image. Anything to say about the image? Poco a poco (talk) 08:12, 1 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
     Support The image itself is excellent—a lovely feeding moment, with proper focus and quality suitable for an underwater shot. Your comment has made me think about trying to make adding this structured data easier. For now, if you check the FPC talk page, you’ll see a tool I developed that helps identify these details when creating a new nomination. Wilfredor (talk) 13:44, 1 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you for your feedback, Wilfredor. The tool tells you if something could be improved. Right now I feel like a lot of people here spend their precious time in tasks that could be easily automated (e.g. Italy photographs taken on 2025-07-06, Taken with Canon EOS R5 Mark II or the main subject on the image). I managed to gather enough motivation to upload a bunch of images to Commons after some years, but I've to say that the time required for that is higher and higher especially to add structured data for Wikidata. Wenn will pay that off? Poco a poco (talk) 15:48, 2 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
    I understand your point but sometimes add structure information is almost like add a category. That said, Wikimedia Commons seems like a system frozen in time, built on the premise that if it works, it is better not to touch it. It feels like a page from the 90s, both aesthetically and in terms of how difficult it is to upload and document an image. Editing Wikipedia has also become so complex that one needs to take a course on how to edit. I agree that we spend our time here, but personally, I still hope that what we do can be used educationally. Wilfredor (talk) 22:47, 3 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Captured by the Artemis II crew during their lunar flyby on April 6, 2026, this image shows the Moon fully eclipsing the Sun. From the crew’s perspective, the Moon appears large enough to completely block the Sun, creating nearly 54 minutes of totality and extending the view far beyond what is possible from Earth. We see a glowing halo around the dark lunar disk. The science community is investigating whether this effect is due to the corona, zodiacal light, or a combination of the two. Also visible are stars, typically too faint to see when imaging the Moon, but with the Moon in darkness stars are readily imaged. This unique vantage point provides both a striking visual and a valuable opportunity for astronauts to document their observations during humanity’s return to deep space. The faint glow of the nearside of the Moon is visible in this image, having been illuminated by light reflected off the Earth.

Lord Laurence Olivier taken in England
  • Aristeas’s arguments have convinced me not to keep this support. I think I was too influenced by rhe fact that this is taken by a famous portrait photographer. It isn’t an outstanding example of his work. Cmao20 (talk) 17:36, 4 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I’m very sorry, but while Laurence Olivier is an excellent actor, this photo doesn’t do him justice. Nothing is really sharp, the detail resolution is poor, it almost looks like upscaled, and there are also CAs. Furthermore IMHO the lighting is rather shallow and boring (but this is a matter of taste, of course). – Aristeas (talk) 08:34, 4 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you for the hint, but film photography can be sharp, too. I would not object if this was a photo from some event with moving people, but it is a simple portrait photo, the subject is not moving, and such photos were sharper in 1972, too, if the photographer did it right and used a decent camera and a decent lens. If the photo had an interesting composition, an impressive look or some other aspect which makes it outstanding, I would say that’s more important. But here I only see a mediocre photo with the composition of a passport photograph and the quality of a passport photograph, so I take the liberty to oppose. Of course everybody can see things different and support it. – Aristeas (talk) 16:16, 4 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Times Square April 2022

  •  Support -- (talk) 15:09, 8 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I'd expect that for Times Square, which is basically the most photographed square in the world ever, it should be possible to source a photo of better technical quality than a cellphone capture. Due to being taken with a cellphone, it is grainy, has wormy AI denoise artifacts typical of modern smartphones, sharpening halos around high-contrast edges, etc. Slightly lower technical quality would have been acceptable if it were one of your awesome aerial photos, but I really think we can do better for a popular tourist perspective on the ground. Also, I hate being one of those "perspective correction" guys, but this picture could use some of it, and also the center of the image is tilted counterclockwise a little bit. dllu (talk) 17:05, 8 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support Unlike most JWST images that have been brought to FCP, this time there is no sign of extraordinary resolution. In fact, this pic doesn't even meet the minimum 2 million pixels requirement (I ignore that for obvious reasons), but to my eyes, it still comes across as an FP. -- IamMM (talk) 16:18, 7 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose The JWST is producing lots of near-infrared photos of galaxies and although beautiful, I don't think this one is particularly special in terms of scientific interest or composition, so this does not outweigh the low resolution to me, sorry. Please note that although the source appears to have higher resolution versions, these are actually (badly) upscaled versions for use as computer wallpapers, and preserve no extra detail; they therefore should not be uploaded over the top of this.

  •  Oppose Judged purely from a photographic perspective, this image does not reach FP level for me: apart from the eyes, nothing is really sharp on the relatively flat fish, the background shows clearly visible noise, and even though it is apparently a rare fish, I find the visual impact of the subject rather uninteresting. --Tuxyso (talk) 20:48, 3 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • Tuxyso: I've denoised the water and removed all dust I saw. So, that should be adressed now. To my understanding and experience I see a sharp body and a very sharp eye / mouth (which is the most important area). The tail is rather unsharp, because it was moving. It's wildlife and an underwater shot I'm sometimes not sure what the expectation might be. Yeah, probably not the most spectacular fish you'll find out there, though.

  • From my perspective, although this is a clear FP, I don't find it as interesting as many of your underwater photos, and I honestly think it's because of the plain blue background. Of course, the sea is blue, so this is inevitable for a large number of underwater shots...but it means that although this picture is a great ID shot for a wikibox, it's maybe not an outstanding composition because there's not as much going on as usual.

    I still think this reaches FP level. The composition is simple, but here that simplicity works well, it gives a clean full-body view, good separation, and strong encyclopedic value for a genus that still has no FPs on Commons. In underwater wildlife photography, a plain blue background and some softness in the moving tail are not major drawbacks to me when the eye and head and most of the body are well rendered. --Wilfredor (talk) 17:54, 4 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you for your comments, Cmao20 and Wilfredor. I also believe that it deserves the star (specially in terms of sharpness and originality added to underwater difficulty pus) and therefore I'll keep this nom. I understand, that the compo is simple and this isn't the most appealing fish species you can see, therefore I understand some concerns. Poco a poco (talk) 19:42, 4 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Ponta Negra beach with Careca hill visible in the background
  • I don't want to talk about another Commons project badly. I don't think the standard of many QIs is good, but their reviewing process is very different to ours. For me QIC is a good place to look for potential FP candidates but just being QI is not enough by itself to stand as a benchmark of good quality. Cmao20 (talk) 23:57, 7 July 2026 (UTC)[reply]
