- ??? - The image has been up for a month ([1]). - Veggies (talk) 11:11, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - Oops, my bad, I misread the date - it was the next-to-last update, that's what tripped me up... --Janke | Talk 11:22, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I know it's a sunset picture, but EV might be better if it was lightened? Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:44, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Taken in the daytime or given a longer exposure? -- Veggies (talk) 16:58, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - My first thought was that it could be lightened up a bit (Photoshop et al.) on the right side, to give it a better balance, but when you look at it in full size, it doesn't feel so necessary. I wouldn't oppose a careful lightening/gamma correction on the right half, though. --Janke | Talk 07:26, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    - I always think EV better in a daytime image, but otherwise you could do some lightening on the right I suppose. Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:16, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      - How about cropping out the right side, and to balance it, cropping out a bit of the left side? I added a CSS image crop. The harbor is almost entirely on the left side. The right side is dark and the buildings are cut off in the foreground. Bammesk (talk) 01:28, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        Looks good to me, thanks. Whatever people like best. I really try to avoid artificial colorizing or brightening/darkening as much as possible for WP images. I haven't had the chance to head out to Baltimore to do another pano in the daytime, yet. -- Veggies (talk) 17:10, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
