Oppose per Basile and Giles. --Ermell (talk) 23:31, 29 November 2024 (UTC).svg/15px-Pictogram_voting_comment_(orange).svg.png)
Comment It's of course a beautiful picture at thumbnail but when looking closer at the separation between the sky and land I wonder if the background is real or if it is a photomontage of a sky photographed from another place/angle/time. The file description says the file was taken by putting a camera on a tripod and taking 30sec exposure shots and assembling them, which would mean that the background is supposed to really have been behind that foreground. But the author is the same one than this church picture that was recently delisted for having undeclared photo manipulations (fake background) and having misled votes. -- Giles Laurent (talk) 08:32, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
Abstain Explicit abstention in line with Giles' analysis and reasoning. Personally, I'm tired of undisclosed manipulations on this forum, just recently I fell for a manipulation in my nomination of someone else's picture, which the author didn't really admit. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 11:52, 28 November 2024 (UTC)- Oppose per Giles Laurent. We shouldn't promote any more images from this user given the risk that they could be photomontages.

- I think we have to judge the picture and not the author. If the author shows us the original raw of this image and that he proves that it's not a photomontage, this picture (and other proven real pictures) should still be able to be promoted in my opinion -- Giles Laurent (talk) 16:33, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
- Also this one by "AstroAnthony" is clearly a fake. There might be many other manipulations by this uploader (I don't want to waste hours examining each with a magnifying glass). It is not worth risking another time-consuming delisting process after potential POTY qualification like the previous case. -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:21, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Sure, if the author could provide the RAWs I would be happy to reconsider, but I think it's fair to assume that images by this user may be photomontages, particularly if they look 'too good to be true', and to vote accordingly. Cmao20 (talk) 02:59, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose Too good to be true. --Thi (talk) 15:19, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
