[edit]Nominierung
[edit]Leitsätze für die Nominierung
[edit]Bitte lies alle Leitsätze (Englisch) vor der Nominierung.
Dies ist eine Zusammenfassung von Kriterien, auf die du bei der Einreichung und Bewertung von Exzellenz-Kandidaten achten solltest:
- Auflösung – Fotografien mit einer Auflösung unter 2 Millionen Pixel werden in der Regel abgelehnt, außer unter „stark mildernden Umständen“. Beachte, dass ein 1600 x 1200 großes Foto 1,92 Megapixel hat und damit weniger als 2 Millionen.
- Grafiken auf Commons können auch in anderen Weisen als zur Anzeige auf einen herkömmlichen Computerbildschirm verwendet werden. Sie können auch als Ausdruck oder zur Anzeige auf hochauflösenden Bildschirmen verwendet werden. Man kann nicht vorhersagen, welche Geräte in Zukunft Anwendung finden, deshalb ist es wichtig, dass die nominierten Bilder die höchstmögliche Auflösung haben.
- Eingescannte Bilder – solange es keine offizielle Richtlinie gibt, findet man unter Help:Scannen für verschiedene Typen von Bildern Hinweise für die Vorbereitung, die hilfreich sein können.
- Fokus – jedes wichtige Objekt im Bild sollte normalerweise scharf sein.
- Vordergrund und Hintergrund – Objekte im Vorder- und Hintergrund können stören. Kontrolliere, ob etwas vor dem Motiv des Bildes wichtige Elemente verdeckt. Auch soll nichts im Hintergrund die Komposition verderben, zum Beispiel eine Straßenlampe, die über dem Kopf einer abgebildeten Person „steht“.
- Allgemeine Qualität – nominierte Bilder sollten von hoher technischer Qualität sein.
- Digitale Manipulationen betrügen nicht in jedem Fall den Betrachter. Digitale Nachbearbeitungen, um Fehler von Fotografien zu korrigieren, sind allgemein akzeptiert, vorausgesetzt, sie sind begrenzt und gut gemacht, ohne dabei betrügen zu wollen. Akzeptiert werden normalerweise Beschneiden, perspektivische Korrekturen, Schärfen und Verwischen sowie Farb- und Belichtungskorrekturen. Umfangreichere Korrekturen wie das Entfernen von störenden Hintergrundobjekten sollten in der Bildbeschreibung mit Hilfe der Vorlage {{Retouched picture}} klar beschrieben werden. Nicht oder falsch beschriebenen Manipulationen, die dazu führen, dass das Hauptmotiv falsch dargestellt wird, sind unter keinen Umständen akzeptabel.
- Wert – unser Hauptziel ist das Hervorheben der wertvollsten Bilder von allen anderen. Bilder sollten irgendwie etwas Besonderes sein. Darum sei dir bewusst, dass:
- nahezu jeder Sonnenuntergang ästhetisch ansprechend ist und die meisten keinen wesentlichen Unterschied aufweisen zu anderen,
- Nachtaufnahmen hübsch sind, aber dass man normalerweise mit Aufnahmen bei Tag mehr Details zeigen kann,
- schön nicht immer wertvoll bedeuten muss.
Auf der fachlichen Seite gibt es die Belichtung, die Komposition, die Bewegungskontrolle und die Fokustiefe zu beachten.
- Belichtung bezieht sich auf die Verschluss-Blende-Kombination, die ein Bild mit einer Tonkurve wiedergibt. Idealerweise bildet diese Tonkurve in akzeptabler Genauigkeit Schatten- und Spitzlichtbereiche im Bild ab. Dies nennt man „Belichtungsspielraum“. Bilder können im niedrigen Teil der Tonkurve (unterer Bereich), im mittleren (mittlerer Bereich) oder hohen Teil (oberer Bereich) liegen. Digitale Kameras (oder Bilder) haben einen engeren Belichtungsspielraum als Fotofilme. Fehlende Genauigkeit im Schattenbereich ist nicht unbedingt ein Nachteil. Tatsächlich kann dies ein gewünschter Effekt sein. Eingebrannte Spitzenlichter sind dagegen ein störendes Element.
- Komposition bezieht sich auf die Anordnung der Elemente im Bild selbst. Die „Drittel-Regel“ ist ein guter Grundsatz für die Komposition und ein Erbe der Gemäldemalerei. Die Idee ist, das Bild mit jeweils zwei horizontalen und zwei vertikalen Linien zu teilen. Dadurch wird das Bild in horizontale und vertikale Drittel geteilt. Das Motiv im Zentrum des Bildes zu platzieren, ist oft weniger interessant, als es auf einem der vier Schnittpunkte der horizontalen und vertikalen Schnittlinien zu platzieren. Der Horizont sollte eigentlich niemals in der Mitte des Bildes liegen, wo er das Bild in zwei Hälften „teilt“. Die obere oder untere horizontale Linie ist oft eine gute Wahl. Der Hauptgedanke ist, den Raum zu nutzen, um ein dynamisches Bild zu schaffen.
- Bewegungskontrolle bezieht sich auf die Weise, wie die Bewegung im Bild abgebildet wird. Die Bewegung kann stillstehend oder verschwommen sein. Weder das eine noch das andere ist besser; es kommt auf den Zweck der Aufnahme an. Bewegung ist relativ innerhalb der Objekte des Bildes. Zum Beispiel vermittelt uns das Fotografieren eines relativ zum Hintergrund stillstehenden Rennwagens kein Gefühl für das Tempo oder die Bewegung. Also zwingt uns die Fototechnik, das Motiv stillstehend vor verschwommenem Hintergrund abzubilden, wodurch ein Gefühl für die Bewegung entsteht. Dies nennt man „Schwenken“. Andererseits kann eine Aufnahme eines im Vergleich zur Umgebung stillstehenden Basketballspielers während eines hohen Sprunges das „Unnatürliche“ der Natur dieser Pose sichtbar machen.
- Fokustiefe (DOF – Depth Of Field) bezieht sich auf den Fokusbereich vor und hinter dem Hauptmotiv. Die Fokustiefe wird abhängig von den spezifischen Erfordernissen jedes Bildes gewählt. Große oder kleine Fokustiefe kann auf die eine oder andere Weise die Qualität der Aufnahme vergrößern oder schmälern. Geringe Fokustiefe kann die Aufmerksamkeit auf das Hauptmotiv des Bildes lenken, das Hauptmotiv erscheint dadurch von seiner Umgebung gelöst. Hohe Fokustiefe bringt Abstände zwischen Motiven zur Geltung. Objektive mit kurzer Brennweite (Weitwinkel) ergeben eine hohe Fokustiefe, umgekehrt haben Objektive mit langer Brennweite (Teleobjektive) eine flache Fokustiefe. Kleine Blendenöffnungen bringen große Fokustiefe, und umgekehrt große Blendenöffnungen bringen flache Fokustiefen.
Bei den grafischen Elementen gibt es Form, Volumen, Farbe, Struktur, Perspektive, Balance, Proportion, usw.
- Form bezieht sich auf den Umriss des Hauptmotivs.
- Volumen bezieht sich die dreidimensionale Qualität des Motivs. Diese wird durch Seitenlicht herausgebildet. Im Gegenteil zum allgemeinen Glauben ist Frontbeleuchtung nicht die beste Wahl. Frontbeleuchtung lässt das Motiv abflachen. Das beste Tageslicht hat man am frühen Morgen oder nachmittags.
- Farbe ist wichtig. Übersättigte Farben sind nicht gut.
- Struktur bezieht sich auf die Oberflächenqualität des Motivs. Diese wird durch Seitenbeleuchtung verbessert.
- Perspektive bezieht sich auf den „Grad“ zusammen mit Linien, die in einen Fluchtpunkt innerhalb oder außerhalb des Bildes enden.
- Balance bezieht sich auf die Anordnung der Motive innerhalb des Bildes, die entweder das scheinbar gleiche Gewicht haben oder schwerer auf einer Seite erscheinen.
- Proportion bezieht sich auf die Größenunterschiede der Objekte im Bild. Normalerweise tendieren wir dazu, kleine Gegenstände klein im Vergleich zu anderen darzustellen. Eine gute Methode kann aber sein, kleine Objekte groß im Gegensatz zu wirklichen Größenverhältnissen abzubilden. Zum Beispiel: Eine kleine Blume überwiegt gegenüber einem großen Berg. Dies nennt man Maßstabsinversion.
- Nicht alle Elemente müssen berücksichtigt werden. Einige Fotografien können anhand individueller Eigenschaften beurteilt werden. Für ein Bild kann die Farbe oder die Struktur wichtig sein, oder Farbe und Strukur, usw.
- Symbolische Aussage oder Relevanz…. Der Meinungskrieg kann hier beginnen…. Ein schlechtes Bild von einem sehr schwierigen Motiv ist ein besseres Bild als ein gutes Bild von einem gewöhnlichen Motiv. Ein gutes Bild von einem schwierigen Motiv ist ein außergewöhnliches Foto.
- Bilder können kulturell beeinflusst sein durch den Fotografen und/oder den Betrachter. Die Bedeutung des Bildes sollte vor dem kulturellen Hintergrund des Bildes beurteilt werden, nicht durch den kulturellen Hintergrund des Betrachters. Ein Bild „spricht“ zu Menschen und hat die Möglichkeit, Emotionen auszulösen, wie zum Beispiel Zärtlichkeit, Zorn, Ablehnung, Heiterkeit, Traurigkeit usw. Gute Fotografen sind nicht darauf beschränkt, gefällige Emotionen zu provozieren.
Um die Chancen für einen Erfolg deiner Nominierung zu erhöhen, lies vor der Nominierung alle Leitsätze.

Richtlinien für Exzellenz-Kandidaten
[edit]Allgemeine Regeln
[edit]- Nach dem Ende des Abstimmungs-Zeitraumes wird das Ergebnis am Tag 10 nach der Nominierung festgestellt (im Zeitplan weiter unten gezeigt). Also dauert der Abstimmungs-Zeitraum 9 Tage, plus die Stunden bis zum Ende von Tag 9. Stimmen, die an Tag 10 oder danach abgeben wurden, werden nicht gezählt.
- Nominierungen von anonymen Mitwirkenden sind erwünscht.
- Mitwirken bei Diskussionen von anonymen Mitwirkenden sind erwünscht.
- Nur Nutzer mit einem commons-account, der mindestens 10 Tage alt ist und 50 Beiträge hat, können wählen. Ausnahme: Die eigene Nominierung kann gewählt werden, unabhängig von Alter und Beiträge.
- Die Nominierung zählt nicht als Stimme. Unterstützung muss explizit angegeben werden.
- Nominierungen können vom Einsteller jederzeit zurückgezogen werden. Dies geschieht einfach durch das Schreiben von „I withdraw my nomination“ (eng. Ich ziehe meine Nominierung zurück)
oder durch Hinzufügen von{{withdraw}} ~~~~
. - Denke daran, das Ziel von Wikimedia Commons ist es, einen zentralen Speicher für freie Bilder, genutzt von allen Wikimedia-Projekten, bereitzustellen, einschließlich für mögliche zukünftige Projekte. Dies ist nicht einfach ein Speicher für Wikipedia-Bilder, deshalb sollten hier die Bilder nicht danach beurteilt werden, ob sie zu diesem Projekt passen.
- Bilder können vorzeitig am Tag 5 (fünfter Tag nach der Nominierung) von der Abstimmungsliste genommen werden („Regel des 5. Tages“):
- Wenn sie keine Unterstützung erhalten, die Einsteller nicht mitgezählt.
- Wenn sie 10 oder mehr Pro und kein Kontra erhalten haben.
- Bilder, welche durch die Vorlage {{FPX}} markiert wurden, können 48 Stunden, nachdem die Vorlage gesetzt wurde, von der Liste entfernt werden, vorausgesetzt, das Bild hat außer von den Einstellern keine positiven Stimmen (Unterstützung) erhalten.
- Bilder, welche durch die Vorlage {{FPD}} (FP denied) markiert wurden, können 48 Stunden, nachdem die Vorlage gesetzt wurde, von der Liste entfernt werden.
- Es dürfen von einem Benutzer maximal 2 Nominierungen gleichzeitig platziert werden.
Regeln zur Wahl und Abwahl
[edit]Ein Kandidat wird in die Galerie der exzellenten Bilder aufgenommen, wenn folgende Bedingungen erfüllt sind:
- Passende Lizenz (selbstverständlich)
- Mindestens 7 positive Stimmen (Pro-Stimmen)
- Das Verhältnis von unterstützenden zu ablehnenden Stimmen ist mindestens 2/1 (eine Zwei-Drittel-Mehrheit)
- Zwei verschiedene Versionen desselben Bildes können nicht beide exzellent werden, sondern nur das mit der höheren Zahl an Stimmen.
Die Abwahl-Regeln sind dieselben wie zur Wahl der exzellenten Bilder bei gleichbleibenden Abstimmungs-Zeitraum. Die Regel des 5. Tages gilt für Abwahlkandidaten, die keine Stimme für die Aberkennung des Exzellenz-Status' bis zum Tag 5 erhalten haben, außer die des Antragstellers.
Ein erfahrener Nutzer kann die Anfrage beenden. Wie man eine Anfrage beendet, siehe unter Commons:Kandidaten für exzellente Bilder/Was tun, wenn der Abstimmungszeitraum zu Ende ist.
Vor allem sei freundlich
[edit]Bitte bedenke, dass das Bild, das du beurteilst, das wohlüberlegte Werk von jemandem ist. Vermeide Phrasen wie „it looks terrible“ (eng. sieht schrecklich aus) oder „I hate it“ (eng. Ich hasse es). Wenn du dagegen Stellung nehmen musst, tu dies bitte mit Rücksichtnahme. Bedenke außerdem, dass deine Englischkenntnisse nicht die gleichen sein müssen wie die eines anderen. Wähle deine Worte sorgfältig.
Viel Spaß beim Bewerten …, und denke daran: Alle Regeln können gebrochen werden.

- Comment I agree with Tupungato. The full view is very much better than the trail, but also there the crop is too tight, since the tops of the trees are cut, and the border of the photograph is too close to the summit of the mountain. Very nice colors. --Harlock81 (talk) 14:41, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

- Support I gave this nomination a lot of thought. The athlete is not perfectly sharp, but the photo resolution is big enough for this to not be an issue. The image greatly showcases the dynamics of cross-country finish line "reach out" technique, while having a nice overall composition and good setting without visual clutter (it's hard to have a sporting event image without ever present advertising posters etc). I had a look at hundreds of cross-country photos in Commons and this is one of the best.-- Tupungato (talk) 11:24, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

- I would make it even brighter. I looked at the whole thing again and noticed more issues. I added four notes to the image: 2 dust spots, white "ghost" artefacting below the bill/head, and strange patterns in the sky. I especially see the strange patterns in the sky, when trying to brighten the photo to see how it looks. I don't know what's going on there. Was there some serious Clone Brushing / Clone Stamping editing there? Sorry for being so picky. I'm a fellow birdwatcher and it's a better photo than I have ever taken of any moving bird, but still I feel it needs to be slightly better. Tupungato (talk) 12:56, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

- Neutral, but leaning Weak support – I don't love how my eyes are drawn to the background, which isn't the main subject (the grey heron) and feels rather unsharp, but the foreground is fairly good. That said I'm not sure what can be done about this. --SHB2000 (talk) 07:48, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you very much, SHB2000, for your feedback. The background is not spectacular but I find the contrast between natural environment and skyscrapers uncommon compared to what we usually see here. The fact that the park is populated by large birds in total freedom is a local specificity that I find astonishing. As for sharpness, I did my best to optimize it according to the scene including a living being, but perhaps F/13 instead of F/11 would have increased the depth of field. The weather was beautiful that day, and it's a photo I like because it combines two contradictory ideas: nature and urbanization. Like a balance between the two.

- Support There aren't a lot of featured pictures of tropical cyclones, especially ones taken from the International Space Station (ISS). Most ISS photos of tropical cyclones don't show the entirety of the storm's structure, have a perspective distortion (which sometimes makes the image look flat), were taken at an awkward position, or had lots of distracting elements/interior surroundings. I found this image, which I believe could be a featured picture, since the photo contains most, if not all of the tropical cyclone's structure and was taken at a good position. The image cannot be retaken since the storm in the picture no longer exists. This image is used in the tropical cyclone article on the English Wikipedia (the majority of the time being the one that was uncropped before I changed it to the cropped version), so I believe it implies that it is one of the best images of a tropical cyclone taken from the ISS. Although there is another FP, I don't think it is the best since it does not show all of the tropical cyclones and is of inferior quality in terms of resolution and file size. Although some elements are present in this image and could be distracting, they do determine the image's orientation at the time of imaging and make the image appear less artificial. They obscure little of the tropical cyclone and, in my opinion, do not interfere with the significant encyclopaedic value of the image. I mentioned this image in COM:CRIT right here and it was supported by a single person, so I feel it's ready for FPC. --Zzzs (talk) 04:34, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

- Comment A tad oversaturated? The sky looks a bit fake -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:34, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
- Info This photo have been taken after sunset when the sky had enough light and clouds had specific colors after sunset, but the groud was too dark to take one shot and avoid gaps in shadows and highlights. So I had to use HDR to receive balance in light between the sky and the ground. Maybe this can explain your thoughts about fake sky. --Rbrechko (talk) 13:54, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
- The problem with drone pictures taken in low light is that they are not stabilized like a tripod. It's possible that this lack of quality impacted the result when enhancing the colors afterwards in post-treatment -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:45, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

A user from France added to photo a fews weeks ago to https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orque#Captivit%C3%A9 You can like these kinds of shows or not. However, I see no reason why there shouldn't be well-composed and well-done photos of them on Commons. Perhaps you could use the photo in connection with a critical article about orca shows, if you like. --Tuxyso (talk) 13:07, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- No comment on the photo (although the composition is poor, not showing the orca well and obstruction in the foreground); that just that I thought orca shows would have stopped by now. It is more than 30 years after the film Free Willy. I think it's OK to comment on controversial subject at FPC - see this FPC or this one and others featuring children or nudity.

- Comment I quite understand the comment. The water isn't strictly speaking murky. It is very clean. The problem is the physics of how light behaves underwater. Have a look online at pictures of humpbacks taken from the same distance that show the whole adult animal in profile, you will see they all look like this.

- Weak oppose Nice thumbnail, but low quality at full resolution. Similar to many other nice pictures we have on Commons, but not "one of the best" in my opinion. The narrow DoF (F/5.6) makes the background blurry, and also the walls. High (2500) ISO reduce the level of detail. Perhaps a tripod would have helped here -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:00, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose Reasons are similar to Basile's above. Judging from the ISO and timestamp this was taken in low light, yet the WB in the photograph looks like it was shot during the day. Main issue is that the high ISO and subsequent noise reduction have significantly affected the image quality to the extent that it has the appearance of a smartphone image when viewed fullscreen. I agree with Basile that this is nice, but unfortunately not the best of the best. BigDom (talk) 06:05, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

- Info Your rainbow panorama installation by Ólafur Eliasson at the ARoS Aarhus Art Museum, Denmark. c/u/n by GRDN711 -- GRDN711 (talk) 05:31, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support At the suggestion of another user, have re-cropped this image from the original in a larger size. While still small, IMHO, this image has merit for FP consideration. -- GRDN711 (talk) 05:31, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support IMHO it works better now; the image is still not big, but meets our minimum requirements, and the new crop has the advantage that it shows how this installation is located between sky and earth. From this perspective the visitors look like a part of the installation. – Aristeas (talk) 10:45, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose Too small compared with current FPC. Such a resolution is acceptable only for something very special, which could not be photographed again. Yann (talk) 11:10, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose Great subject but sorry, I do think 862 pixels high is just too small for an FP in 2024. Cmao20 (talk) 02:48, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- Comment Yann, Cmao20 - I welcome your opinions but as listed above, the FP resolution requirement is a minimum of 2 MB (and even less with strong mitigating circumstances). If you want to change FP criteria, that argument goes to a different forum. If you judge this image on its own (taken in 2011 when this rainbow panorama was created) and work through the FP critera at the top of the page, I think you will find it meets all, particularly the last one - value in illustrating the intended, interactive use of an architectural work of art by a significant modern artist. IMHO, it has a little wow too. --GRDN711 (talk) 06:28, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- There are many images which would pass in 2011, but not today. We had 10 millions files, and we have now more than 110 M. Sorry, but we can't get back in time. Yann (talk) 09:01, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, the lower limit is 2 megapixels, but in practice, photos of an easily reproducible subject should be much larger. I would not vote for a picture this size unless either it was a technically difficult photograph or it was very difficult or impossible to replace. And it isn't even that sharp even at this small size. Cmao20 (talk) 15:07, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

- Comment Interesting, and good composition, but low resolution. It is possible to get much higher resolution images in this field: File:Fordson tractor with members of British Women's Land Army 1940s.jpg. Yann (talk) 21:38, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
- Weak support The resolution is indeed low, but we may allow it as this is a historical image, and it is sharp, with good composition and exposure. It’s also interesting as it represents the official interpretation of the Women’s Land Army especially nicely, giving an impression of cheerful cooperation and leaving out the difficulties and trouble. – Aristeas (talk) 15:51, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

- Weak support Wonderfully atmospheric and great colours, but a bit small for FP. Cmao20 (talk) 19:20, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose Relevant parts of the photo are underexposed, this concerns the gravestones and the tree trunks, where any structure or natural colour is lost in blackness. I recognize the intention to create a gloomy mood, which the picture succeeds in doing. However, in my opinion, this would also be possible without that massive underexposure. As far as I can tell, this is more of a technical issue than a purposeful image design. --Superbass (talk) 19:39, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
