[edit] Lichtenstein Castle

Lichtenstein Castle is in Germany, not Liechtenstein
Lichtenstein Castle is in Germany, not Liechtenstein

So good, I had to write the article on Lichtenstein Castle (which was quite confusing, given that neither this castle, its replica in South Africa, nor Castle Liechtenstein is actually in Liechtenstein.) This photo was taken and contributed by Andreas Tille. -- Solipsist 14:44, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Comment from the author to the story of the pic: When pulling out my Minolty 9000 for this shot I noticed that the batteries were low. Fortunately analog cameras do not need much power and thus putting the batteries into my pocket gave me two extra shots. Andreas Tille 14:22, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Oppose. Not good enough. Lower left is too dark. --Bernard Helmstetter 22:19, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment. Looks good small, but full version closeup looks heavily photoshopped, especially where the sky meets the castle. ed g2s • talk 00:15, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Uhmm, if at all it looks Gimped. :) And, yes I had to get rid of some dust which was on the slide when it was scanned for Kodak Photo CD. Andreas Tille 14:22, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Hmm, the sky seems to have been darker originally, right? Jonas Olson 15:49, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
No, it was not Andreas Tille 14:22, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Full res photo looks blurry --Fir0002 00:37, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak support. Maybe a bit of cropping in the lower left corner would better enhance the subject of the image. Sango123 15:54, Apr 24, 2005 (UTC)
I just cropped the image but it fits exactly my taste now. Andreas Tille 14:22, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Oppose. The thumbnail's worthy, but the full res is visibly out of focus (even if reduced to 50%). —Korath (Talk) 22:51, May 7, 2005 (UTC)
