Peel Castle at night[edit]
I believe this may meet the FP criteria as it is encylopedic, well composed and visually pleasing. The image is sharp, despite the long exposure, apart from the reflection which gives a deliberately ghostly appearnce due to the movemnent of ripples on the water during the exposure. My only concern is the possible overexposure from the lights, which is why I'd like a second opinion here before I nominate it at FP.

- It won't pass FP IMO. Honestly, it's too poorly placed and only is on one artice. That means that it will be that much more likely to be picked apart for the lighting. Do you have a daytime photo from the same spot? Nezzadar [SPEAK] 17:31, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
- It's certainly not as detailed as you'd expect from a 14MP camera, at first I thought it was a compact... you'd get much better results at a wider aperture (ƒ8 should be fine) and with more light (twilight would work well, see the images at blue hour) you'd have less noise and better definition. You should still get some blurry water at ~1sec and it's a good candidate for stitching. It's encyclopedic enough as it is, but with a bit of work it could easily be the lead image in the article. One further thought: FP reviewers can be picky about not including the whole structure, ie you've cropped the left side here. Good luck if you decide to re-shoot. mikaultalk 21:45, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
