34: 65:- Very nice pic, but a bit small and there are thousands of jpeg compression artefacts in the sky, especially between the branches. It also looks like it has been enlarged beyond original dpi. Good subject though. If someone could take it again or something very similar it would be good, but that picture as it is isn't good enough. — 84:
Sorry, but with that many, and so obvious, it would be impossible to remove them. To get rid of them all, you'd have to blur the sky, and that would remove all the detail into a smudge. As a thumbnail it looks good, but the full size is too small and irreversibly compressed. Sorry!

I see what you mean, about the compression artifacts. Pity, the original contributer has left Knowledge (XXG), or I would see if he has another copy. I really like the subject and composition. Is there any way to clean the current version up?
117: 236: 17: 45:. I think the contrast between the silhouette of the joshua tree and the spectacular sunset make this a great pic. It says it is public domain. 113:. Lovely picture ruined by its small size and insane level of artifacts. I'd happily support a high-res version. 221: 204: 192: 170: 158: 146: 134: 105: 89: 79: 69: 57: 184: 86: 66: 201: 179: 131: 230: 214: 155: 114: 76: 54: 167: 102: 143: 101:- Nice, but as said above, too many artifacts. The thumbnail was really nice. -- 42: 127: 33: 32: 41:
I found this on Wikimedia commons, and it is now on the article
142:. Agree with previous - too small, bad jpeg artifacts. 8: 18:Knowledge (XXG):Featured picture candidates 7: 237:Ended featured picture nominations 24: 1: 222:02:32, 15 December 2005 (UTC) 205:01:04, 12 December 2005 (UTC) 193:17:33, 11 December 2005 (UTC) 58:23:01, 30 November 2005 (UTC) 171:21:33, 4 December 2005 (UTC) 159:15:18, 4 December 2005 (UTC) 147:15:42, 2 December 2005 (UTC) 135:09:57, 2 December 2005 (UTC) 118:07:11, 2 December 2005 (UTC) 106:17:06, 1 December 2005 (UTC) 90:10:55, 2 December 2005 (UTC) 80:01:23, 2 December 2005 (UTC) 70:08:56, 1 December 2005 (UTC) 166:Agree with Vanderdecken. -- 253: 38: 37:Joshua tree at sunset 36: 39: 219: 191: 244: 217: 213: 188: 182: 252: 251: 247: 246: 245: 243: 242: 241: 227: 226: 215: 186: 31: 22: 21: 20: 12: 11: 5: 250: 248: 240: 239: 229: 228: 224: 211:Not promoted 208: 207: 195: 173: 161: 149: 137: 120: 108: 96: 95: 94: 93: 92: 60: 30: 25: 23: 15: 14: 13: 10: 9: 6: 4: 3: 2: 249: 238: 235: 234: 232: 225: 223: 218: 212: 206: 203: 199: 196: 194: 189: 181: 178:- too small. 177: 174: 172: 169: 165: 162: 160: 157: 153: 150: 148: 145: 141: 138: 136: 133: 129: 125: 121: 119: 116: 112: 109: 107: 104: 100: 97: 91: 88: 83: 82: 81: 78: 73: 72: 71: 68: 64: 61: 59: 56: 52: 49:Nominate and 48: 47: 46: 44: 35: 29: 26: 19: 210: 209: 197: 175: 164:( − ) Oppose 163: 151: 139: 123: 110: 99:Weak support 98: 87:Vanderdecken 67:Vanderdecken 62: 50: 40: 27: 200:- As above 63:Weak Oppose 43:Joshua tree 28:Joshua tree 202:JustinWick 180:Flcelloguy 154:as above. 231:Category 216:Jtkiefer 156:Enochlau 115:—DO'Neil 198:Opppose 168:Fir0002 122:Ditto, 103:Vidarlo 51:support 176:Oppose 152:Oppose 144:Diliff 140:Oppose 124:oppose 111:Oppose 220:---- 187:note? 128:Janke 16:< 132:Talk 126:. -- 53:. - 77:Jon 55:Jon 233:: 185:A 130:| 190:) 183:( 85:—
