Cropped to remove the un-fixable cloning and stitching errors
Cropped to remove the un-fixable cloning and stitching errors
- Reason
- What happens when the monsoon hits the Western Ghats? Well, this. Good quality and very high EV when seen side by side.

Support While the quality of it isn't perfect, the comparison between them is fantastic. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.8% of all FPs 01:10, 18 May 2022 (UTC)Sorry, MER-C is right. The top one isn't too bad, but the bottom one is really quite appalling in the lower left corner and less so (but stil bad) in the lower right, with some very bad stitching (?) errors on top of it. Reluctant oppose. Perhaps we could crop the sides?Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.8% of all FPs 21:26, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
- Since you did a great job so far, can you look at the lower left corner of the rain season one, where where's still a small stitching error? Support alt otherwise. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.8% of all FPs 22:04, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
- Done :) UnpetitproleX (talk) 22:52, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

- Support Alt.
providing that cloning errors are eliminated or at least improved.Top EV for the pair! --Janke | Talk 11:58, 18 May 2022 (UTC) - Support Alt Very captivating image. Well done.Taxin609 (Talk To Me) 00:33, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Taxin609: Due to errors in the original, a cropped alt has been uploaded, please update your vote accordingly. UnpetitproleX (talk) 20:46, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

- I stuck my support vote. I had not seen the stitch lines on the bottom image. Also the top image has dark patches along its top and bottom edge (artifact of stitching). These can be fixed/improved with some careful cloning, and I would support if that's done. Oppose as is (i.e. the original nominated versions). Bammesk (talk) 13:14, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Bammesk: Could you please strike out the now redundant oppose, so that it isn’t accidentally counted? UnpetitproleX (talk) 11:31, 27 May 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose - I can't overlook the dreadful cloning in the bottom corners of both images. MER-C 18:25, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
- Comment I'll try to fix the stitching errors of the top and the cloning problems in the bottom tomorrow. UnpetitproleX (talk) 21:08, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
- I’ve attempted to fix them. @Adam Cuerden and Bammesk: Should something else/more be done? Or perhaps these just aren’t FP. UnpetitproleX (talk) 13:57, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
- On the bottom image, the lower left corner is still too obvious (going from the darker grass to the lighter grass). It may be hard to fix. You can also renominate these at a later time, if you care to spend time on them. The top image still has two dark patched on its bottom edge (you may have to zoom in to see them). Bammesk (talk) 14:36, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
- I think, as Adam Cuerden suggested above, slight cropping on the sides and bottom of the monsoon image might be better. The dry one is easier to fix. UnpetitproleX (talk) 19:33, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
- I’ll upload the cropped versions and renominate. UnpetitproleX (talk) 19:36, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
- Aye, just crop them both the same, which probably means dropping the rainy season one to remove the weird green blob, then taking the same off dry season. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.8% of all FPs 20:16, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

Comment: Per the suggestions, I have uploaded the cropped versions as alt. Please recast your votes based on it if you wish to. Thanks! UnpetitproleX (talk) 20:42, 22 May 2022 (UTC)- Support Alt – Bammesk (talk) 02:48, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
