National Gallery Singapore: aerial view[edit]
-
Reference
Article(s): w:National Gallery Singapore
- Request
- Just inspired by above photo, which was taken in 2011. After two building were converted to National Gallery Singapore, I see it would be meaningful to take photo again for the same site and the similar viewpoint. It would be nice if anyone who have a drone to do so. 😀 -- Great Brightstar (talk) 17:47, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- Original photographer here; I shot it from the top of Marina Bay Sands with a superzoom (Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ38) so a drone isn't needed. Good luck! cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 00:50, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
Photo of Alemu Aga[edit]

- Request
- Please remove the concentric circle overlay. It's centered on the base/resonator of his instrument, and one circle overlaps with his face (look under his nose). Thank you so much! --Zanahary (talk) 18:35, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- @Zanahary: In my opinion, working here makes no sense. The watermark is almost invisible, and removing it would require an amount of work disproportionate to the expected effect. PawełMM (talk) 07:11, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

- See Commons:Quality images candidates/Archives September 12 2016; Poco a poco requested that "you remove[] the CA". I think the CA is the result of using an inexpensive kit lens. I don't know how to remove it. --grendel|khan 22:11, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Lens correction[edit]

Cropped image of Jade McGlynn
-
original image (for reference)
Article(s): en:Jade McGlynn
- Request
- Hi, I saw someone added the first image to the article en:Jade McGlynn that I wrote some time ago. It's a nice picture, but due to the convex lens of the camera, and the fact that she is standing far away from the centre of the original photograph, the proportions of her face are a bit off from what they should be. Is it possible to do some lens correction? Thanks. --Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 17:02, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- It might not be worth the effort as the source image is only of XGA resolution. The crop is only thumbnail size. Distorting it gives poor results. If a higher-resolution source is available, ask again. Cheers, cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 01:29, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

- It would be great if the watermark could be removed; any other improvements that experts see as sensible would also be welcome! The local image for the subject currently in use on enwiki is unfortunately copyrighted in the US due to the URAA and will have to be removed, so this is the only one we have.

Watermark removal would be very much appreciated. This bears the only image of the subject I could find that is unaffected by URAA restoration. If it were possible to have a cropped version of the right-hand image without the top-right corner of the archive stamp, that would be even better! Felix QW (talk) 10:15, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Article(s): [[]]
- Request
- Please remove the CA/purple fringing from around the leaves. I've tried to use G'MIC-Qt in Gimp (the "Chromatic Abberation" filter), but I think I just don't have a good enough eye, unfortunately. Please upload fixed versions over the originals. Thank you! grendel|khan 20:35, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- @Grendelkhan: In my opinion, there is nothing to do here. The photos are correct. The only drawback is the over-lit parts, where the sun shines through the trees. In photos taken against light, this is a natural effect. However, this adds naturalness to the images presented here. PawełMM (talk) 06:28, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
