- Support OK technical quality; reasonable EV for illustrating parks and recreation in Chiyoda. It would be nice to have more saturated colours but it is better to have faithful colours. The blown highlight is annoying but not too big of a deal. Overall I enjoy the composition depicting an idyllic scene. The cherry blossoms are great since they only last for a short period of time and are strongly associated with Japan. dllu (t,c) 03:04, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
Question before I vote.Is the appearing rather soft to anyone other than myself? --WingtipvorteX PTT ∅ 19:59, 16 April 2013 (UTC)- My question being answered, I'm going to Oppose. --WingtipvorteX PTT ∅ 18:14, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
- Note that the image is of very high resolution and even if you downsample it to a quarter of the size (which would make it appear super sharp) it would still meet FPC criteria. dllu (t,c) 20:14, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose No, it's appearing soft to me as well. I'm also going to make a huge guess here, but the photo appears to be "washed out" like most un-retouched landscape images tend to be, and I don't believe the colors are representative of the location. I have never been to Tokyo, so I'm only guessing here, but I think the photo could be punched up very slightly. It could also be some other issue (hazy day) or no issue at all. That's just what it looks like to me. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 04:20, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- I think the colours are faithful, based on looking at many cherry blossoms in my area (I've also been to Tokyo once). The sky does seem a bit drab though... dllu (t,c) 20:14, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
