•  Support I like the composition --Uoaei1 (talk) 06:32, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Comment I really like the composition, but the red in this photo seems way over the top compared to other photos of this lighthouse. Any chance of turning it down a bit? --Cart (talk) 12:21, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Comment Exactly, the image looks a bit oversaturated and maybe a bit underexposed. Further, the image IMO would gain a lot if you could eliminate the three people on it. --Basotxerri (talk) 13:56, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Oversaturated And it is not often that I say this. Daniel Case (talk) 21:09, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
  •  Support It looks like the luminance on the red has been suffiiciently decreased. Daniel Case (talk) 16:56, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

::* Support sorry I voted too quickly with the memory of the previous version.

•  Info This vote along with the {{oppose}} by the same user below, will remain striked until S. DÉNIEL has decided how he wants to vote. This vote is also invalid since it is unsigned. --Cart (talk) 09:43, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

• Please sign this post. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:40, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

•  Oppose per others --Milseburg (talk) 07:13, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Info Strong colours look strong in very shine conditions. I have reduced nevertheless the colour intensity and have brighten it up. Please have again a look at it. --Wladyslaw (talk) 13:45, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

• The red color is always a bit troublesome when it comes to digital cameras since the sensor is prone to shift that part of the spectrum into infrared. If you have big red areas in a photo, correction is almost always necessary to make it look natural. This is much better. --Cart (talk) 16:00, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Support - This photo has grown on me. It reminds me of William Carlos Williams' poem, "The red wheelbarrow". There's a kind of simple near-perfection of form to it, with only a few colors and lots of relaxing blue sky and white sand. Only a couple of contrails spoil the illusion a bit, but they're far enough away to also be gentle. Daniel, Milseburg and Basotxerri, do you still think this photo is oversaturated? I think it is good now. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:10, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

• Thank you. Exactly what I think too. Totally "clean" views are lifeless. --Wladyslaw (talk) 07:42, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

• Yes, Ikan, the saturation is OK now, however I have a problem with people in landscape images. If they could be cloned out, I would vote in favor. --Basotxerri (talk) 18:52, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

• Everything you can clone out. But as I argued I did not see the point why this few persons should disturb the image impression so much. In fact I cloned out some persons that was in the mid range of the image. But the far away few persons gives the image life without disturbing the relaxing and calmfull charakter. --Wladyslaw (talk) 07:28, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

•  Support --XRay ^talk 15:19, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

* Oppose the colours are oversaturated --S. DÉNIEL (talk) 09:19, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

•  Info See comment on the opposite vote above. --Cart (talk) 09:43, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

• I reduced even the nativ colours of the image, so this image is in fact not oversaturated. Maybe you disslike strong and fresh colours? --Wladyslaw (talk) 09:28, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
• Looking at his recent votes, this user is disruptive. Charles (talk) 10:29, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

• polarizing filter? --S. DÉNIEL (talk) 14:55, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

• It was not used a polarizing filter. And in fact the image was de-coloured. You seem not to know different light conditions and clear and fresh coloursituations which you have e.g. on high seas on shinny weather. --Wladyslaw (talk) 15:26, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

• That's probably why I don't understand 1/500 on shinny weather. --S. DÉNIEL (talk) 07:43, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

• Hand-held and and windy beach would justify 1/500. Charles (talk) 08:20, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

• What's the problem with the aperture of 1/500? And one again S. DÉNIEL: please decide whether you're vote pro or contra and if you want to vote pro please sign your voting. Thank you! --Wladyslaw (talk) 08:45, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

•  Support nice colors --Ralf Roleček  15:44, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose Besides nice or nt nice colours, there is no subject here. Technically the camera created a good file but I dont see anything wow here.Paolobon140 (talk) 11:20, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
