Bikers at Burning Man[edit]

This picture, in the Burning Man article, is I think quite a good and encyclopedic picture, it is just very grainy. I was just wondering if someone could run it through a good grain-reducing edit as well as maybe cropping out the blown-highlight area, so I could nominate it at FPC.

To be honest I really don't like this at all. I think it's just all too far away, and that blown out area on the right (is it smoke from the fire?) just looks awful in thumbnail, and not much better at full size. Don't think cropping will save it - you would have to crop at least a third of the picture. And the grain! It's up to you, but I would oppose for sure. --jjron 10:42, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Don't get me wrong, I agree with you, I just wanted to see what someone could do with an edit. NauticaShad e s 16:08, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - I think it's far too low resolution and already grainy for an edit to do much. I think to get a close to a good photo you'd need a really good camera to do a panorama... but, I'm not expert. It had the makings of a really nifty shot... but, you just need to spend a few thousand more on your camera :) gren グレン 20:26, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    - I would second this if it didn't have the graininess problems. Very similar to a lot Richard Misrach's desert canto pictures. ~ trialsanderrors 02:14, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
