Critiques[edit]

Sometimes I do not agree with your critiques, but I respect them. Your observations are well grounded. Keep on, and take the heat. Welcome. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:07, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou very much. Your objectivity is very much respected and appreciated.Fotoriety (talk) 22:31, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi Fotoriety (nice nickname). I agree with Tomascastelazo, and hope you will enjoy your stay in FPC page. As french, I have a question. Almost all of your reviews begin by the letters "Cons.", and I don't understand what it means. Could you explain please ? Thank you for answer and welcome again.--Jebulon (talk) 21:43, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
LOL! Thankyou. Yes i knew i would ruffle some feathers, so i chose this nickname to meld notoriety with photo. I would be more than happy to answer your question regarding the word "cons". Cons just means things you are opposed to - which is why i list things i am opposed to after it. The opposite of cons would be "pros". Thanks for asking and making me feel welcome.Fotoriety (talk) 22:40, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
OK thanks for answering, that was my idea but I was not sure. The "s" disturbed me. "Pro" vs "Contra", as french (again) I'm unforgiveable, because it is latin ! Lol ! --Jebulon (talk) 23:34, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
LOL! Yes i understand. As English, we tend to invent all kinds of new words - even if they fail to uphold the standards of accuracy & proper procedure! LOL.Fotoriety (talk) 23:42, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

File:Saint Isaac's Cathedral Sept. 2012 Interior.jpg[edit]

The file was updated. Please review your vote at the nomination page --Ximeg (talk) 11:10, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

I can see it has improved. However, i still don't think it is FP status. It still looks too noisy and i think you will struggle to eliminate that with the settings you have had to work with. Perhaps you could retake the photo to account for the noise and perhaps look at photo-shopping out any unwanted results from that?Fotoriety (talk) 00:30, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
Unfortunately I cannot retake it, as it is 2000 km away from me... And anyway, with my camera it's not possible to obtain better results without tripod, which is prohibited there. Anyway, thank you! --Ximeg (talk) 22:52, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
I'm sorry i couldn't be of more help.Fotoriety (talk) 01:15, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
