Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Mt hotham summer scenery tilt

Original

Reason: I feel this picture, while it has the most obvious problem of tilt, demonstrates its purpose very well. It does not exist to be aesthetically pleasing, or to have perfect composition. It merely exists to show tilt problems. And that is exactly what it does.
Proposed caption: This photo demonstrates one of the most common technical errors in photography: tilting. The house in this photo appears to be straight, until compared with the red lines, which shows that, in reality, the house is tilted very much to throw off the balance of the photo.

Comment Shouldn't an FP appear in an article in the main article namespace? Spebudmak 02:30, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
speedy close not eligible as it's not in an article, besides, way too small. Debivort 03:09, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Since the first criterion for a featured picture is a high technical standard, I don't think a picture used as an example of a technical problem should be featured. Also, WAY too small.--Uberlemur 03:09, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I don't know what I'm looking at in Tilt (optics), where this pic was recently added, but I'm fairly certain the picture is not illustrative of the phenomenon described. thegreen J Are you green? 04:04, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
