- Comment Is it me, is it the lighting or the whitebalance? The image seems a bit yellow to me. I like the action though. The dutch phrase "boer met kiespijn" ("to smile like a farmer with a tooth-ache") comes to mind looking at the second and third place-teams. Kleuske (talk) 11:50, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, the white balance was a headache. There was the standard light, but near the floor there was another light (an advertisement) and also the playing field makes a warmer reflection. This was the best WB I could get for the series after trying different temperatures. --Kadellar (talk) 18:18, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose No wow to me, just a documentary image without anything special. Unfortunate framing too (feet of the Men In Black cut off, and half man on the left). --Kreuzschnabel (talk) 15:46, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose Special and wow : for me it is, however the "feet of the Men In Black cut off" are an issue, sorry. -- Christian Ferrer Talk 06:51, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
- Kreuzschnabel, Christian Ferrer: Well, I nominate it because I was expecting this being featured as documentary image, we don't have many teams celebrating. About the crop: I cut the feet so the players are more important in the picture. With the feet, there's also too much uninteresting floor at the bottom. Thanks for the reviews anyway. What do you think of this other image: File:Nazionale di hockey su pista dell'Italia - 02.jpg?--Kadellar (talk) 16:20, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- The composition is indeed better or at least more striking on the other but the quality is much better on the current nomination. The quality is even very good IMO, but if we forget the subject, the value, and the quality; and that we look only at the visual object which is the image so sorry the cut men are disturbing, a bit too much for to be compensated by the value of this documentary image. However I understand your point of view. I think will not support the other image too because of the DoF a bit small IMO, really sorry... -- Christian Ferrer Talk 17:09, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, I know, f2.8 and they were very close, I focused on the middle approximately, but still... Thanks for taking a look! --Kadellar (talk) 18:43, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
