  • Question These are new to me and amazing. But what is the brown 'frame' that runs around the art? This doesn't appear other images on Google. Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:42, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I think it's because I have taken the picture with the flash. On the pictures I have not used the flash, the line doesn't appear but the pictures are not sharp.--Bgag (talk) 15:09, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It is related to the use of flash, but it looks very strange close up. I suspect the camera moved and the flash fired twice. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:01, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Awkwardly cut off at right, gives the impression of a cave, which it is not. --Janke | Talk 15:36, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – The shadow is from a typical on-camera flash, nothing unusual about it. It's a nice and valuable photo and it enhances the articles, but the right quarter of the photo isn't sharp (viewed at full size). A higher F-number or a sharper lens could've improved the sharpness.

  • Considering the geometry, with an overhanging ceiling and the distances involved, I agree with Bammesk's conclusion. Oppose because a better photo can certainly be shot. --Janke | Talk 16:54, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
