•  Info all by Kabelleger -- Kabelleger (talk) 21:46, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
•  Info CargoNet El 14 with a container train on the Dovre Line, near Dombås, Norway, about one second before transforming us into snowmen :) I quite like the light and the dark background in this picture.

•  Oppose The sky is quite badly posterized on my screen. Is this my screen's fault? If not, can this be fixed? --99of9 (talk) 05:55, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
  •  Comment It seems to depend on the screen. Might also be JPEG artifacts. I'll see if I can do something about it. --Kabelleger (talk) 06:41, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
  •  Comment I checked a few cases of clearly visible (!) posterization and in most cases the two colors differed only by one bit in two of three color channels. So at the moment I think that no, this can't be fixed, because it seems that a resolution of 8 bit per RGB color (a limitation of the JPEG file format and the screens everybody has at home) is just not enough in this case. --Kabelleger (talk) 16:48, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
  •  Comment I'm using a Apple iMac with LED-backlit display, and on that screen no posterization is visible. -- MJJR (talk) 19:14, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
  •  Support I've viewed this on a different screen and there's no problem at all. Sorry for the bother. --99of9 (talk) 10:30, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
•  Support Per Herby. Think I can see what you mean about the sky, only on my screen it´s not that bad. But to me the first version without the rotation appeared more natural (you can see it when looking at the trees to the left). I think instead of just rotating it, a slight correction of the perspective would produce a slightly better result. Nikopol (talk) 15:46, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
  •  Comment I think the issue here is that the catenary masts are far from vertical; I tried to find a good compromise, but still, some lean to the left, some to the right... --Kabelleger (talk) 16:57, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
•  Info I just uploaded a new version. I corrected the perspective a bit, because after Nikopols comment I noticed that the masts of a power line in the left background were not vertical as well. Moreover, I used Photoshop's highest possible JPEG export quality, hoping that it might mitigate the posterization issue somewhat (however, on my two screens, S-PVA and TN, I don't see much change). --Kabelleger (talk) 20:15, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
