Palais Saint-Georges

Palais Saint-Georges in Rennes

was built in 1670 to replace an older abbey building and remained in use as an abbey until 1792, when the French Revolution forces evicted the Benedictine nuns and used the building as a barracks. It is now owned by the commune of Rennes and houses the fire department and other civil offices.

This image was nominated as a featured picture at Commons and, frustratingly, I was never told of the nomination. As you can see, it was a fairly damning set of opposes, though most of them fair. I've now reprocessed the images from RAW and restitched. I believe all of the stitching errors are fixed. I think I've fixed the white balance (presumably what was meant by "poor colours"). I'm assuming that the poor crop was in regards to the very tip of the antenna being cut off; is this really such a big problem? Finally, there are indeed about three small areas where the focus is off, but I think you have to be pixel peeping in order to see them, and it only means it's not quite as sharp as the rest. I think a lot of images look like those soft areas at even less resolution and still manage to pass somehow. But I'd rather have your opinions: should I give up on this one and never bother with a nomination? Julia\^talk 09:58, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
