Cette page recense les images qui sont proposées pour être affichées dans les Images remarquables. Notez qu'il ne s'agit pas de la même chose que l'image du jour ou que les images de qualité.

Les archives des votes précédents se trouvent sur cette page.

Il existe également une liste chronologique des images remarquables.

Conseils avant de proposer une image

[edit]

partie en cours de traduction depuis la version anglaise, votre avis est le bienvenu.

Lisez entièrement le guide avant de commencer

Quelques règles informelles à retenir avant de proposer une image (les termes en italiques sont la traduction anglaise des termes).

  • Définition (display resolution) : les images de Commons peuvent être utilisées sur d'autres supports qu'un écran d'ordinateur, par exemple pour être imprimées ou vues à très haute résolution. Il est important que les images proposées aient la plus haute résolution possible. Au moins 2 millions de pixels (par ex. 2000 x 1000) semble raisonnable à présent. Les images de définition inférieure sont systématiquement rejetées sauf s'il y a une bonne raison.
  • Mise au point (focus) : tous les objets importants de l'image devraient être nets. Dans l'idéal les objets non primordiaux sont nets.
  • Avant-plan et arrière-plan (background and foreground): ils peuvent être dérangeants. Le sujet principal ne devrait pas être caché par le premier plan, ni se confondre avec l'arrière-plan.
  • Qualité générale (general quality) : Les images proposées devraient avoir une très haute qualité technique.
  • Une retouche (digital manipulations) ne doit pas tromper l'observateur. La correction de quelques défauts dans l'image est acceptée pour autant que ce soit limité, bien fait, et non pour tromper. Les retouches courantes sont le recadrage, la correction de la perspective, de netteté, des couleurs ou de l'exposition. Des manipulations plus importantes, tels quel l'élimination d'éléments dans l'arrière plan, doivent être décrites dans la description de l'image, par le biais du modèle {{RetouchedPicture}}. Les retouches non décrites ou mal décrites qui transformeraient le sujet sont inacceptables.
  • Utilité (value) : notre but principal est de présenter des images utiles et précieuses. Les images devraient ainsi être spéciales d'une façon ou d'une autre, donc, entre autres :
    • La plupart des coucher de soleil sont beaux, et la plupart ne sont pas différents des autres existant déjà.
    • Les photos de nuit sont souvent belles mais davantage de détails sont visibles de jour.
    • "Beau" ne veut pas dire "utile".

Au niveau technique, nous avons l'exposition, la composition, le mouvement et la profondeur du champ.

  • L'exposition (exposure) est l'obturation du diaphragme qui modifie la luminosité (brightness) pour rendre avec qualité les ombres et les lumières au sein de l'image. Le manque d'ombres dans le détail n'est pas nécessairement négatif, cela peut être un effet désiré.
  • La composition (composition) est l'arrangement des éléments dans l'image. La "Règle de trois" est un bon guide pour la composition, c'est un héritage des écoles de peintures. L'idée est de diviser l'image par deux lignes horizontales et deux lignes verticales, nous avons donc trois parties dans chaque sens. L'objet ne doit pas forcément être centré. Les sujets intéressants doivent êtres placés aux 4 croisements des lignes. L'horizon ne doit jamais être mis au milieu, car il couperait l'image en deux. L'idée principale ici est de rendre l'image dynamique.
  • Netteté (sharpness) renvoie à la manière dont les mouvements sont représentés dans l'image. Ils peuvent être nets ou flous. Ils ne sont pas mieux l'un que l'autre, cela dépend de l'intention du photographe. L'impression de mouvement dépend des différents objets de l'image. Par exemple, photographier une voiture de course qui apparaît nette par rapport à l'arrière plan ne donne pas une idée de la vitesse. Il faudrait en fait que la voiture soit représentée nette, mais avec un arrière plan flou, créant ainsi le mouvement. D'un autre coté, représenter le saut d'un joueur de basket net avec le reste de l'image flou, en raison de la nature peu habituelle de la photo, lui conférerait de l'intérêt.
  • La profondeur de champ (depth of field or DOF) renvoie à la zone de mise au point devant et au delà du sujet principal. La profondeur de champ est choisie en fonction des besoins spécifiques à chaque image. Une profondeur grande ou petite peut améliorer ou dégrader la qualité de l'image. Une faible profondeur de champ peut attirer l'attention sur le sujet principal, en le séparant de son environnement. Les lentilles à petite distance focale (grand angle) ont une grande profondeur de champ, et vice versa, les lentilles à grande distance focale (petite ouverture) ont une petite profondeur de champ.

Règles générales

[edit]
  1. Le résultat est donné 9 jours après la proposition (voir le planning en bas de page). Les votes ajoutés le 10e jour ou après ne sont pas décomptés.
  2. Les utilisateurs non-enregistrés peuvent proposer des images, faire des commentaires, mais pas voter.
  3. La proposition elle-même ne compte pas comme un vote : il faut l'ajouter explicitement.
  4. Le proposant peut retirer une image à tout moment, en écrivant : {{Withdraw}} ~~~~
  5. Souvenez-vous que le but de Wikimedia Commons est une bibliothèque pour tous les projets Wikimedia, y compris des projets futurs ; les images n'ont pas à être utiles uniquement pour Wikipédia.
  6. Les images peuvent être retirées de la liste dès le 5e jour si elles n'ont reçu aucun vote "pour".
  7. Soyez attentifs et très sélectifs dans les choix que vous faites, car il ne peut y avoir que deux propositions actives par proposant. Toute proposition supplémentaire sera rejetée sans examen.
  8. Seulement 2 nominations actives par même utilisateur (qui est, en nomination sous "review" et non encore close) sont autorisées. Le principal but de cette mesure est de contribuer à une meilleure qualité moyenne des nominations, par un choix plus judicieux des photos présentes en nominations.

Règles de promotion

[edit]

L'image candidate devient une image remarquable si elle remplit les conditions suivantes :

  1. Une licence appropriée (bien sûr !)
  2. Au moins sept votes "pour".

Sculpture "Tetrahedron" (Bottrop, Germany) at night with light installation "Fraktal".
Addendum: This is a renomination. -- A. Öztas 11:13, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just to be complete at this point: One nomination did not reach the necessary total number of votes and the other was a different version of this picture, whose nomination I had withdrawn after less than a day. Without going any further into the discussion here, I should have included the reference above (as I subsequently did) when I nominated it. I didn't have in mind at the time that the photo had already been here before. -- A. Öztas 11:13, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is no strict rule about it but it is generally the case that we don't renominate a picture that has failed unless significant improvements have been made to it since the previous nomination. My support still stands in this case, but it isn't normally something we would do. Cmao20 (talk) 13:57, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, see this case for example, a few days ago -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:30, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You didn't have in mind that the structure had already been nominated twice? It's surprising. Anyway, too dark in my opinion -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:30, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The brief nomination that I withdrew after less than a day and the subsequent one felt like a single attempt to me and this was over a year ago – and quite a lot has happened since then. So yes, it simply slipped my mind. There's no reason to be surprised by that. It was pointed out, the reference was added, and that should suffice. As for the image, I understand that it might indeed appear a bit too dark. Whilst it can always change, at the moment it's just right for me, whether it's enough for an excellence rating or not. I appreciate your perspective and the time you've taken to review it. -- A. Öztas 16:43, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome to discuss here. "Brief nomination" but still three oppose, one question and one comment during this short time. Thus quite a logical withdrawal, in my opinion. We can of course AGF, but reciprocally, we, reviewers, remember that the two similar nominations failed not so long ago, for assumed fair reasons. As Ikan Kekek rightly said in a similar case "Not voting also counts as a lack of interest". Usually, it is obvious to the nominators that a photo has already been nominated, because they need to add "/2" at the end of the file name to create a new FPC, but here the file page has been renamed twice recently. With still no metadata. Of course, since the voters are not always the same at FPC every month, it can happen that a picture which failed the first time is finally promoted by insisting. But you should also understand, as you wrote after the first nomination "I will nominate the original as FP with the reasonable assumption that it will be rejected anyway", that the picture will struggle to pass, even though several of us reiterate their efforts to evaluate again. -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:14, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Discuss about what? After the first answer from you and me, everything was already said, or am I wrong? Of course, we are welcome to deepen the discussion, precisely because it is a topic that affects many aspects of the FP nomination processes and often offers room for different perspectives. In this context, I would like to address a few points that touch on both the past of previous nominations and the general guidelines for repeat submissions. As I mentioned, the first nomination was over a year ago. This distance in the time frame plays a role in my opinion, as it makes it clear that I did not submit the nomination of the structure out of a constant repetition so that it would, as you wrote, "finally be promoted by insisting". The motivation lies more in the fact that I continued to reflect on the image over time and adapted my own view of it. As a photographer, I often experience such processes; a certain development of my own view of the image. Photography, after all, is a medium through which we capture not just what we see, but what we feel at a given moment. And as those feelings evolve, so too can our interpretations of our own work. This growth is natural and, I believe, valuable to the community's understanding of a work as it evolves through the eyes of its creator. At the same time, I understand that for reviewers like you and others who regularly participate in the discussions, there is a certain habit and reminder value when similar or identical images are up for discussion again. What this has to do with AGF here is beyond me. I'm not as familiar with the practice in this area, I'm only on my fourth photo here. I see your references to a previous nomination as a helpful addition and not a criticism per se. The process of weighing up between a possible repetition and the search for new qualities in an image is essential and is shown in the current case by the different feedback and views. I would also like to note that my decision to quickly withdraw the previous nomination should not be understood as an endorsement of a "logical withdrawal". There were several factors at the time, including personal considerations, that led me to withdraw the nomination. It is true that this first nomination was - albeit briefly - on the table and led to reactions, but the circumstances were more complex than they appear at first glance. In my opinion, such a withdrawal should not be seen as a weakening factor for the quality of the picture itself, but as part of the individual process that each artist has to deal with. Furthermore, I would suggest having a broader discussion about the weighting of nominations that have already failed. Of course, there is no doubt that a clear majority should decide the relevance and quality of an image, but there may be cases where an image changes its relevance and quality over time. This could be due to technical improvements, a change in the community's perspective or simply time showing the work in a new light. Such an approach may well make sense for some FPC nominations, particularly for those images that have failed in the past but could potentially find new appreciation. After all, everything and nothing is set in stone here. With regard to the question about the brightness of the image, I agree that this is a subjective judgement and certainly open to discussion. The incidence of light and the colour scheme reflect the mood that I wanted to capture when taking the photograph and are not just technical parameters for me, but part of the aesthetic that I want to convey. Of course, the comment that the image may be perceived as too dark is justified and a question of personal taste - however, it is precisely this difference between subjective perception and objective quality that often leads to divergent assessments. Light plays a powerful role in shaping the emotional resonance of an image, influencing how viewers perceive and connect with it on a deeper level. By intentionally choosing a darker, more subdued lighting, I aimed to create an atmosphere that goes beyond a straightforward representation of the structure itself. This darkness, though perhaps unconventional, allows subtle textures and contrasts to emerge, lending the image a mysterious quality that invites viewers to look closer and consider the piece in a contemplative way. The interplay between shadows and faint highlights, in my view, captures a sense of introspection and draws attention to the sculptural lines of the structure. While brighter lighting may provide more clarity or detail, this more moody approach aligns with the feeling I experienced when taking the photograph, reflecting a quieter, almost meditative atmosphere. Shadows add depth and a sense of timelessness to the scene, suggesting that the image captures not just a single moment but a feeling that could exist outside of time. This play of light and shadow is a deliberate choice, one intended to evoke curiosity and to invite viewers into the scene, allowing them to experience the piece not merely as an architectural object but as a structure with an almost enigmatic presence. At least that's how I feel about this one. In the end, I understand that every image will resonate differently with each person who views it, and I fully respect the diverse perspectives within this community. The beauty of these discussions lies in their ability to reveal new interpretations and insights, both for the artist and for those who critique the work. I look forward to read more of your perspectives in other discussions as well, as these exchanges are invaluable not only for our individual growth but also for enriching the shared vision of what we seek to highlight here. -- A. Öztas 05:02, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • No need for a tripod to a get a HQ shot from a ceiling. I have done it so many times... I'm surprised and disappointed by the support this image is getting. The camera was off-centered, so that the arches on left and right are not symmetrical at all, the cop is a mess and the quality low. Poco a poco (talk) 14:06, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Weak oppose In the top left corner (please see annotation) there is a yellow coloration on the white surface, which indicates a subsequent coloring within a poorly made selection. However, this is only an assumption. Also, the saturation of the image seems too high to me. I would also suggest a square crop in favor of a more balanced composition. Also, I have to partially agree with the opponents above that the FP standard for church interiors is higher than this one. Nevertheless, the subject is great, and with careful reworking it would have a chance of becoming FP. I am very sorry. -- Radomianin (talk) 15:15, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Addendum: If you look at the original version, you can see a more natural coloring. Another indication of subsequent editing, which in my opinion was not done carefully enough. I would like to ask the nominator/editor to place a retouching template with the done work on the file page. Many thanks in advance. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 15:33, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you for your reply, Riad Salih. I am sure you have done your best to meet the FP standard. For this, the community thanks you, because every volunteer is needed to keep this project alive. And your work is just as valuable as that of any other volunteer. But participation in this forum thrives on constructive criticism that helps the volunteers maintain the professional standards of the FP project.

Addendum: This is a renomination. -- A. Öztas 11:13, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just to be complete at this point: One nomination did not reach the necessary total number of votes and the other was a different version of this picture, whose nomination I had withdrawn after less than a day. Without going any further into the discussion here, I should have included the reference above (as I subsequently did) when I nominated it. I didn't have in mind at the time that the photo had already been here before. -- A. Öztas 11:13, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is no strict rule about it but it is generally the case that we don't renominate a picture that has failed unless significant improvements have been made to it since the previous nomination. My support still stands in this case, but it isn't normally something we would do. Cmao20 (talk) 13:57, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, see this case for example, a few days ago -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:30, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You didn't have in mind that the structure had already been nominated twice? It's surprising. Anyway, too dark in my opinion -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:30, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The brief nomination that I withdrew after less than a day and the subsequent one felt like a single attempt to me and this was over a year ago – and quite a lot has happened since then. So yes, it simply slipped my mind. There's no reason to be surprised by that. It was pointed out, the reference was added, and that should suffice. As for the image, I understand that it might indeed appear a bit too dark. Whilst it can always change, at the moment it's just right for me, whether it's enough for an excellence rating or not. I appreciate your perspective and the time you've taken to review it. -- A. Öztas 16:43, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome to discuss here. "Brief nomination" but still three oppose, one question and one comment during this short time. Thus quite a logical withdrawal, in my opinion. We can of course AGF, but reciprocally, we, reviewers, remember that the two similar nominations failed not so long ago, for assumed fair reasons. As Ikan Kekek rightly said in a similar case "Not voting also counts as a lack of interest". Usually, it is obvious to the nominators that a photo has already been nominated, because they need to add "/2" at the end of the file name to create a new FPC, but here the file page has been renamed twice recently. With still no metadata. Of course, since the voters are not always the same at FPC every month, it can happen that a picture which failed the first time is finally promoted by insisting. But you should also understand, as you wrote after the first nomination "I will nominate the original as FP with the reasonable assumption that it will be rejected anyway", that the picture will struggle to pass, even though several of us reiterate their efforts to evaluate again. -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:14, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Discuss about what? After the first answer from you and me, everything was already said, or am I wrong? Of course, we are welcome to deepen the discussion, precisely because it is a topic that affects many aspects of the FP nomination processes and often offers room for different perspectives. In this context, I would like to address a few points that touch on both the past of previous nominations and the general guidelines for repeat submissions. As I mentioned, the first nomination was over a year ago. This distance in the time frame plays a role in my opinion, as it makes it clear that I did not submit the nomination of the structure out of a constant repetition so that it would, as you wrote, "finally be promoted by insisting". The motivation lies more in the fact that I continued to reflect on the image over time and adapted my own view of it. As a photographer, I often experience such processes; a certain development of my own view of the image. Photography, after all, is a medium through which we capture not just what we see, but what we feel at a given moment. And as those feelings evolve, so too can our interpretations of our own work. This growth is natural and, I believe, valuable to the community's understanding of a work as it evolves through the eyes of its creator. At the same time, I understand that for reviewers like you and others who regularly participate in the discussions, there is a certain habit and reminder value when similar or identical images are up for discussion again. What this has to do with AGF here is beyond me. I'm not as familiar with the practice in this area, I'm only on my fourth photo here. I see your references to a previous nomination as a helpful addition and not a criticism per se. The process of weighing up between a possible repetition and the search for new qualities in an image is essential and is shown in the current case by the different feedback and views. I would also like to note that my decision to quickly withdraw the previous nomination should not be understood as an endorsement of a "logical withdrawal". There were several factors at the time, including personal considerations, that led me to withdraw the nomination. It is true that this first nomination was - albeit briefly - on the table and led to reactions, but the circumstances were more complex than they appear at first glance. In my opinion, such a withdrawal should not be seen as a weakening factor for the quality of the picture itself, but as part of the individual process that each artist has to deal with. Furthermore, I would suggest having a broader discussion about the weighting of nominations that have already failed. Of course, there is no doubt that a clear majority should decide the relevance and quality of an image, but there may be cases where an image changes its relevance and quality over time. This could be due to technical improvements, a change in the community's perspective or simply time showing the work in a new light. Such an approach may well make sense for some FPC nominations, particularly for those images that have failed in the past but could potentially find new appreciation. After all, everything and nothing is set in stone here. With regard to the question about the brightness of the image, I agree that this is a subjective judgement and certainly open to discussion. The incidence of light and the colour scheme reflect the mood that I wanted to capture when taking the photograph and are not just technical parameters for me, but part of the aesthetic that I want to convey. Of course, the comment that the image may be perceived as too dark is justified and a question of personal taste - however, it is precisely this difference between subjective perception and objective quality that often leads to divergent assessments. Light plays a powerful role in shaping the emotional resonance of an image, influencing how viewers perceive and connect with it on a deeper level. By intentionally choosing a darker, more subdued lighting, I aimed to create an atmosphere that goes beyond a straightforward representation of the structure itself. This darkness, though perhaps unconventional, allows subtle textures and contrasts to emerge, lending the image a mysterious quality that invites viewers to look closer and consider the piece in a contemplative way. The interplay between shadows and faint highlights, in my view, captures a sense of introspection and draws attention to the sculptural lines of the structure. While brighter lighting may provide more clarity or detail, this more moody approach aligns with the feeling I experienced when taking the photograph, reflecting a quieter, almost meditative atmosphere. Shadows add depth and a sense of timelessness to the scene, suggesting that the image captures not just a single moment but a feeling that could exist outside of time. This play of light and shadow is a deliberate choice, one intended to evoke curiosity and to invite viewers into the scene, allowing them to experience the piece not merely as an architectural object but as a structure with an almost enigmatic presence. At least that's how I feel about this one. In the end, I understand that every image will resonate differently with each person who views it, and I fully respect the diverse perspectives within this community. The beauty of these discussions lies in their ability to reveal new interpretations and insights, both for the artist and for those who critique the work. I look forward to read more of your perspectives in other discussions as well, as these exchanges are invaluable not only for our individual growth but also for enriching the shared vision of what we seek to highlight here. -- A.

  • No need for a tripod to a get a HQ shot from a ceiling. I have done it so many times... I'm surprised and disappointed by the support this image is getting.

  •  Weak oppose In the top left corner (please see annotation) there is a yellow coloration on the white surface, which indicates a subsequent coloring within a poorly made selection. However, this is only an assumption. Also, the saturation of the image seems too high to me. I would also suggest a square crop in favor of a more balanced composition. Also, I have to partially agree with the opponents above that the FP standard for church interiors is higher than this one. Nevertheless, the subject is great, and with careful reworking it would have a chance of becoming FP. I am very sorry. -- Radomianin (talk) 15:15, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Addendum: If you look at the original version, you can see a more natural coloring. Another indication of subsequent editing, which in my opinion was not done carefully enough.
