概要[edit]

推薦にあたって[edit]

推薦者のためのガイドライン[edit]

まずはじめに、『秀逸な画像ガイドライン』、『画像のガイドライン』をお読みください。

ここでは推薦画像の評価を受ける・する際の必要事項を要約して紹介します。

  • 解像度 - 200万ピクセル以下の写真画像は、特別な理由が無い限り却下されます。1,600 x 1,200 ピクセル(1.92メガピクセル)は200万ピクセルには届いていない事にご注意ください。
コモンズに置かれた画像は一般的なPCモニターのみで閲覧されるとは限らず、プリントアウトや高解像度モニターで表示される可能性もあります。将来的にもどのような機器が用いられるようになるかは誰にも予想出来ないので、推薦画像が可能な限り高い解像度を保っている事は重要な事なのです。
  • スキャン画像 - 公式な方針ではありませんが、Help:スキャニングページで各種様々な画像を準備するための有用なアドバイスが提供されています。
  • フォーカス - 通常、重要な被写体は全て焦点が合っていなければいけません。
  • 前景と背景 - 前景や背景に主題ではない物が写り込むと、それは“余計なもの”になり得ます。前景にある物が主題の重要な部分を隠していないか、背景にあるものが構図を損ねていないか(例:後ろの街灯が人物の頭の上から生えているように見える、等)を確認しましょう。
  • 全体品質 - 推薦される画像には高い技術品質が要求されます。
  • デジタル補正 - 見る人を欺いてはいけません。写真画像のキズ・ホコリ等を修正する、良い編集、故意に人を騙す目的でない限り、デジタル補正は一般的に歓迎されます。例を挙げると、色合い/露出補正、シャープ/ボカシ、遠近感歪み補正、トリミング(切り取り)等がこれにあたります。背景に写り込んだ余計な物を取り除く等のさらに大がかりな修正は、{{Retouched picture}}テンプレートを画像ページへ貼付け、修正した旨を記述しましょう。記述漏れや記述ミスがある等、主題を不正確に見せる編集は決して受け入れられません。
  • 価値 - 『全ての画像の中でも特に際立ち、最も価値のある画像』が我々の大きな目標です。秀逸な画像はそれぞれの分野の中でも別格でなけらばならず、故に次の点に留意して下さい。
    • たいていの夕日は美しく見えますが、そういう画像のほとんどは他の夕日画像と大差ありません。
    • 夜景は美しいですが、普通は日中に撮影された写真の方がより詳細を見せてくれます。
    • 必ずしも『美しさに価値がある』わけではありません。

技術的側面では露出『構図』『動感表現』被写界深度等を見ます。

  • 露出とはシャッタースピードと絞りとの組み合わせの事を言い、適切なトーンカーブが見せる陰影〜ハイライトが有用なディティールを描写します。これをラティチュード(露光寛容度)と言い、このラティチュードの陰影〜ハイライトの領域内において、画像を暗め、中庸、明るめに作る事が出来ますが、デジタルカメラ及びデジタル画像はこのラティチュードの範囲がフィルムに比べて狭いです。ディティールの欠損した影部分は必ずしも「悪い」わけではなく、実際にその様な効果が望ましい場合(部分)もあります。ただしディティールの欠損したハイライト部分が大きく面積を占めるのは良くありません。
  • 構図とは画像画面内での各要素の配置の事を言います。“三分割法”は構図作成には良い方法で、美術学校でも教えられています。まず、画像に水平線と垂直線をそれぞれ2本引き、画像を水平・垂直方向とも3分割します。主題を中央に配置するとたいていは画面に面白味を欠き、水平線と垂直線が交差する4つの交点の内どれか1つに主題を置いた方が良い画面になるでしょう。地平線は画面を半分に切ってしまうので、通常は地平線を中央に配置するべきではありません。上寄り、若しくは下寄りに配置させる方が良いでしょう。主たる考え方としては空間を上手に使い、躍動感・臨場感のある画面を作るという事です。
  • 動感表現 - ここでは被写体の「動き」を表現する手法を紹介します。動きのある被写体は止まって見えるか、もしくはブレて写りますが、これらはどちらの方が良いとは必ずしも言えず、どのような表現意図を持っているかによります。「動感」は主題と共に写り込んでいる他の背景等との関係で表現されます。例えばレーシングカーの撮影。車と背景とが共に止まって見えては、見る側にスピード感は伝わってきません。 なので撮影手法によって車は画面内で止まっているように写り、かつ背景をブレさせることでスピード感が表現され、このような手法を「パンニング(流し撮り)」と呼びます。一方で、背景と共に止まって撮られた高く跳躍したバスケットボール選手は、これは決定的瞬間の「不自然」なポーズになり、これも良い写真になり得るでしょう。
  • 被写界深度(DOF)とは主題の前側から後ろ側までのフォーカスエリアの事を言います。被写界深度は全ての画像で明解な意図のもと選択され、深い、または浅い被写界深度は、画像に品質を与えもし、また損なわせもします。浅い被写界深度は、主題を他の被写体から切り離し、見せたい被写体に注目を集めることが出来ます。深い被写界深度は空間を強調させる事が出来ます。広角(短焦点)レンズは深い被写界深度、逆に望遠(長焦点)レンズは浅い被写界深度が得られる傾向があります。また絞りを絞り込むと被写界深度は深く、解放すると浅い被写界深度が得られます。

グラフィック要素では形状、ボリューム、色、テクスチャー、遠近感、バランス、比率 等を見ます。

  • 形状とは主題に対する輪郭線、及び形状を言います。
  • ボリュームとは主題の立体感に対する品質を言います。立体感は横からのライティングで表現出来、反対に正面からのライティングは被写体を平坦に見せる傾向があり、不向きとされています。自然光の中でベストな光を得るには、早朝か、もしくは夕方の日の光が良いでしょう。
  • は大変重要で、強すぎる色合いは好ましくありません。
  • テクスチャーとは主題の表面材質の描写性に於ける品質を言います。表面材質は横からのライティングにより強調され、手に触れて伝わるかのような質感を与えます。
  • 遠近感とは、画像の画面内若しくは外にある消失点で繋がる放射状の直線、これに沿った形で現れる「角度」により表現されます。
  • バランスでは画像の画面内での重心が左右均衡か、若しくは片方に寄る等適切な配置が成されているかを見ます。
  • 比率では画面の大きさに対する被写体の大きさを見ます。一般的に、小さな被写体は小さく写真に表現してしまう傾向にありますが、相応しい撮影手法により小さな被写体を実寸とは逆に大きく見せる事が可能です。例えば、小さな花を大きな山よりも大きく見る事が出来ます。この手法を指して「倒置法」と呼びます。
主題の全ての要素を画像に盛込む必要はありません。多くの写真はそれぞれの個性で評価出来ます。すなわち、画像の色やテクスチャー等々により判断出来ます。
  • 『象徴性か妥当性か』 ー 『秀逸な画像』ではしばしばこのようなテーマで意見論争が起こる傾向にあります。技術的・品質的には出来の悪い写真でも極めて撮影困難な被写体を捉えた写真は、凡庸な被写体を写した品質的に良い写真よりも評価されます。もちろん撮影困難な被写体を写し、かつ品質も良い写真は極めて価値の高い写真と言えます。
画像は時に撮影者と評価者、若しくはどちらか片方の文化的な偏りが見られます。画像の意図は画像そのものの文化的背景により評価されるべきであり、評価者の文化的背景に依存してはいけません。イメージは人に語りかけ、そして慈しみ、怒り、拒絶、幸せ、悲しみ等の感情を喚起させる力を持っています。良い写真から与えられる心地よさには限りがありません。


画像のガイドラインを事前に読めば、あなたの推薦が成就する可能性を最大限に引き伸ばしてくれるでしょう。

One issue: I'm pretty sure - and have sources to confirm - that it's actually Marcel Jambon - at least in modern spelling: back in the early 1900s it as a lot more common to change name spellings for different countries. I'm checking with the Wikimedian in Residence about that. It shouldn't matter at all, but would mean that this page and the file page will move to reflect that if it checks out.

  • Symbol support vote.svg Support Absolutely brilliant. A fascinating scene which takes several minutes to fully explore. It's well exposed, and has nice bursts of colour in amongst the chrome. The image is surprisingly noisy at 100%, but by the time the image is stretched to 100% it would be absolutely huge (nearly seven [4K 34-inch] monitors high and more than seven wide) so I see no real problem there. I can easily imagine seeing this in the Picture Of The Day box on the main page. --Bobulous (talk) 19:45, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

  • Pictogram voting info.svg Info With its decorative Italianate interior inspired by the work of Roman sculptors such as Luigi Fontana, St Mary le Strand is one of London's most unusual and interesting churches (still more for being located in the middle of a traffic island). Constructed between 1714 and 1724, its Baroque styling and plastered ceiling were highly controversial for an English church.

There is quite a lot of colour noise and a large amount of JPEG artefacting which is a shame for a photo that is not especially large.

  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment Looks like a top-down view to me. Doesn't make sense to fix the verticals in that case (I got the same remark in this nomination). Looking at the machine at full size, it's really tack sharp. Shot with an Hasselblad at 100 ISO. Apart from a very very little noise in the sky, I really don't see why the quality would be "clearly below FP" -- Basile Morin (talk) 13:26, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Indeed, the image quality looks fine to me. The grain is pretty minimal and not a big deal. And the excavator itself is really sharp. Cmao20 (talk) 17:28, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
  • I was confused by this comment, thought it looked rather crappy for a high-class medium format camera – until I realized that that "Hasselblad" is the 1″ sensor on-board camera of the Mavic 2 Pro. Now it makes sense. Actually looks pretty good for a drone shot. --El Grafo (talk) 15:13, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support I didn't like this shot the first several times I looked at its thumbnail. But on filling the screen with it, it does keep drawing the eye to the dozens of nested structures hidden within. And to my eye the detail on the main body of the machine is crispy even at 100%. The ancillary body to the right is softer but still offers enough detail to show off yet more structures within this beast of a machine. I like the parallel bands of colour, and the textures in the sandy layer. So I've changed my mind: this does feel like a striking image. --Bobulous (talk) 20:07, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

  • I understand that you're looking for an answer from the image, but I'll add an answer in text form anyway: this is along the Israel National Trail at the edge of Makhtesh Ramon. Basically a cliffside path. The bridge, if I recall correctly, only serves to take you to the little lookout area on the other side of it (the little area pictured). It was entirely optional, which I was glad for because it was old and missing planks and bowing in the middle and kind of scary. So the answers to "what is it there for" and "where does it go" are there... they're just not very interesting. :) Mainly I just liked the scene/composition. — Rhododendrites talk |  20:37, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose Welcome to FPC (as far as I know, i haven't seen you nominate before). I like the shot but I think it is for me a bit more QI than FP. The subject is IMO not really that outstanding and for a building that isn't that naturally impressive I would only support a photo shot under excellent light or really outstanding composition. I actually like the composition, but I think the light is a little bit less than ideal - per KoH the shadows caused by the backlighting are not that attractive for me. There is also a little bit of blue chromatic aberration in the branches at the top, though this is easily fixable and not the reason for my oppose. Please, keep trying at FPC - this is not too far off the standard. Cmao20 (talk) 00:09, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
    • @King of Hearts, Cmao20: Thank you for your reviews. The blurring of the branches at the very top of the image is not caused by CA, but by the extreme edge of a shifted lens (a Canon TS-E 24mm mk II, very possibly shifted to the maximum to give a 12mm rise). I don't believe that such loss of resolution can be fixed in post (but I am hoping Canon will soon release a newer model which exhibits this effect less severely). I did wonder if the backlighting would put off some people, but decided to nominate because my eye keeps getting caught by the soft glow of the building face even though it's in shade and competing with areas lit by direct sunlight. If anyone is interested, I could offer an alternative crop which removes most of the road, but I kept it originally because I liked the long shadows made by the gate in the low sun. --Bobulous (talk) 18:28, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

    • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment I don't think it's comparable with that composition. The "dark" wall is not an external facade like in the other picture you mention but the back wall of a passage. This windowless passage is very dark. I had to brighten it up a bit, in the original shot the wall was even darker. The background is a narrow inner courtyard, surrounded by high walls with no direct light (and not a large park; it was a sunny day when the picture was taken). --Llez (talk) 01:50, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Both compositions are comparable. Not the same images, but two centered compositions with round door in the wall, and vegetation behind. (And this is the aspect I like).
  • Now of course I notice the camera is located in a darker room. Still, overall the image is divided into two parts: 1) One very dark foreground 2) One grey background. And just a tiny luminous area at the top of the stairs. 90% of the surface is too dark. You're saying there was no direct light in this narrow courtyard, due to tall walls, and yes, unfortunately that's visible: the exposure is not well set in my view. Sorry but same problem as here before it was fixed.

Ceiling of Tabatabaee mosque at Fatima Masumeh Shrine, qom, iran
  • Thanks dear Cmao20. I didn't crop the picture. The picture merged from 5 frames (50mp) that form a square with(more 100mp). I tried to capture the ceiling symmetrical but the Chandelier wasn't in the center. I could locate the Chandelier in the center and correct the ceiling Symmetry in the Photoshop, but If I had done that, the circle would cut more than this. I need to 17mm TS-E canon to capture monuments like this.--Amir Pashaei (talk) 17:26, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

SHORT DESCRIPTION
Charlesjsharp I agree with you, but I also think that there is no way to cut this photo since it is a composition that never ends at the bottom --Wilfredor (talk) 02:52, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose It's a vibrant scene, but there's no clear main subject, and if the subject is the street itself then the composition doesn't feel like it balances the various pieces. The light grey structure to the left is very much sidelined, and its outline fights with the buildings seen beyond it on both sides. The long building on the right is interesting but not very prominent in the scene, and the same holds for the tall pagoda in the distance beyond it. Additionally, to my eye the image needs to be rotated about two degrees clockwise. --Bobulous (talk) 19:14, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment In this picture main subject is not just one building or street. This photo was taken from the terrace of small building as shown in this picture.

The image is surprisingly noisy at 100%, but by the time the image is stretched to 100% it would be absolutely huge (nearly seven [4K 34-inch] monitors high and more than seven wide) so I see no real problem there.

  • Gallery: Commons:Featured pictures/Places/Interiors/Religious buildings#London
  • Pictogram voting info.svg Info With its decorative Italianate interior inspired by the work of Roman sculptors such as Luigi Fontana, St Mary le Strand is one of London's most unusual and interesting churches (still more for being located in the middle of a traffic island). Constructed between 1714 and 1724, its Baroque styling and plastered ceiling were highly controversial for an English church. There is a more conventional pew-level view but I think this view from the balcony is better. created by Diliff - uploaded by Diliff - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 14:39, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment Looks like a top-down view to me. Doesn't make sense to fix the verticals in that case (I got the same remark in this nomination). Looking at the machine at full size, it's really tack sharp. Shot with an Hasselblad at 100 ISO. Apart from a very very little noise in the sky, I really don't see why the quality would be "clearly below FP" -- Basile Morin (talk) 13:26, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Indeed, the image quality looks fine to me. The grain is pretty minimal and not a big deal. And the excavator itself is really sharp. Cmao20 (talk) 17:28, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
  • I was confused by this comment, thought it looked rather crappy for a high-class medium format camera – until I realized that that "Hasselblad" is the 1″ sensor on-board camera of the Mavic 2 Pro. Now it makes sense. Actually looks pretty good for a drone shot. --El Grafo (talk) 15:13, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support I didn't like this shot the first several times I looked at its thumbnail. But on filling the screen with it, it does keep drawing the eye to the dozens of nested structures hidden within. And to my eye the detail on the main body of the machine is crispy even at 100%. The ancillary body to the right is softer but still offers enough detail to show off yet more structures within this beast of a machine. I like the parallel bands of colour, and the textures in the sandy layer. So I've changed my mind: this does feel like a striking image. --Bobulous (talk) 20:07, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

  • I understand that you're looking for an answer from the image, but I'll add an answer in text form anyway: this is along the Israel National Trail at the edge of Makhtesh Ramon. Basically a cliffside path. The bridge, if I recall correctly, only serves to take you to the little lookout area on the other side of it (the little area pictured). It was entirely optional, which I was glad for because it was old and missing planks and bowing in the middle and kind of scary. So the answers to "what is it there for" and "where does it go" are there... they're just not very interesting. :) Mainly I just liked the scene/composition. — Rhododendrites talk |  20:37, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose Welcome to FPC (as far as I know, i haven't seen you nominate before). I like the shot but I think it is for me a bit more QI than FP. The subject is IMO not really that outstanding and for a building that isn't that naturally impressive I would only support a photo shot under excellent light or really outstanding composition. I actually like the composition, but I think the light is a little bit less than ideal - per KoH the shadows caused by the backlighting are not that attractive for me. There is also a little bit of blue chromatic aberration in the branches at the top, though this is easily fixable and not the reason for my oppose. Please, keep trying at FPC - this is not too far off the standard. Cmao20 (talk) 00:09, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
    • @King of Hearts, Cmao20: Thank you for your reviews. The blurring of the branches at the very top of the image is not caused by CA, but by the extreme edge of a shifted lens (a Canon TS-E 24mm mk II, very possibly shifted to the maximum to give a 12mm rise). I don't believe that such loss of resolution can be fixed in post (but I am hoping Canon will soon release a newer model which exhibits this effect less severely). I did wonder if the backlighting would put off some people, but decided to nominate because my eye keeps getting caught by the soft glow of the building face even though it's in shade and competing with areas lit by direct sunlight. If anyone is interested, I could offer an alternative crop which removes most of the road, but I kept it originally because I liked the long shadows made by the gate in the low sun. --Bobulous (talk) 18:28, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

    • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment I don't think it's comparable with that composition. The "dark" wall is not an external facade like in the other picture you mention but the back wall of a passage. This windowless passage is very dark. I had to brighten it up a bit, in the original shot the wall was even darker. The background is a narrow inner courtyard, surrounded by high walls with no direct light (and not a large park; it was a sunny day when the picture was taken). --Llez (talk) 01:50, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Both compositions are comparable. Not the same images, but two centered compositions with round door in the wall, and vegetation behind. (And this is the aspect I like).
  • Now of course I notice the camera is located in a darker room. Still, overall the image is divided into two parts: 1) One very dark foreground 2) One grey background. And just a tiny luminous area at the top of the stairs. 90% of the surface is too dark. You're saying there was no direct light in this narrow courtyard, due to tall walls, and yes, unfortunately that's visible: the exposure is not well set in my view. Sorry but same problem as here before it was fixed.

White and golden graves in a Buddhist cemetery at sunrise in Vang Vieng, Laos
  • Interesting consideration, however, none of these graves are exactly vertical, and the ground itself is curved. At full size, it's visible some are leaning right, and some are leaning left. Rotating will increase the angle of the grave most at the right in the foreground, that is already slightly leaning CW. Currently the walls of the building in the background are vertical.

    Yes, I'm talking about the skulls here, not about the photo. See COM:DW. Don't know if they're supposed to be art, mass-produced decorative items or toys, but they are certainly not primarily utilitarian and above the threshold of originality. We can only keep them here if they're not subject to copyright for some reason, and in order for this to become FP this needs to be documented properly. --El Grafo (talk) 09:23, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
    Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment @Ikan Kekek & El Grafo There are unsigned pieces of a private collection in San Miguel Allende. As is almost always the case with Artesanías Mexicanas (Mexican curious) they are reinterpretations of very common cultural icons and I don´t think that they are truly original works. This type of figures can be found in just about any market in Mexico during Day of the Dead celebrations. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:38, 17 September 2020 (UTC)

    Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment El Grafo I suggest you read Mexican law. Between the Law and your opinion, I choose the Law. Under your rationale just about every picture of any object that depicts cultural ideas should be then be deleted. Mexican law refers to this type of work derivative work and it lacks enough originality to be granted copyright, on top of it not being signed. This is one of the millions of variants of skulls that relate to Mexican culture and death, day of the dead celebrations, etc. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 19:03, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

The light grey structure to the left is very much sidelined, and its outline fights with the buildings seen beyond it on both sides. The long building on the right is interesting but not very prominent in the scene, and the same holds for the tall pagoda in the distance beyond it.

  • @PetarM: it's a natural background. This smooth effect comes along with macro photography, if you shoot very close to the small subject. --Ivar (talk) 12:03, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose I see the idea, but while it makes a QI easily it just doesn't keep it together for FA. First, the light is a little harsh ... I know this may have been the only time of day you could get the buildings lit, but if that's so this is not the picture with taking for FA. Second, unlike the Diliff image that Cmao linked, the regularity of the buildings is not there in enough quantity to overcome all the distractions like the cars and the trees.
