F-35 Lightning II


The image appears to be of a very high technical quality: zooming reveals no noise or editing artefacts or colour issues. The resolution is very high and the composition seems good to me with only a very small part of the wing of another aircraft at the very bottom of the image. The license is public domain (as a work of the US military or Department of Defense). In my opinion the image adds significant value to the article by giving a very detailed image which clearly shows the main features of the aircraft rather than specific parts (which are present but give little idea as to the overall scale of the aircraft) The image is presumably accurate since it is a work by one of the defence agencies building/designing the aircraft and there has been no unnecessary image manipulation (if any at all). The caption I made up could probably be improved though.

 * It is a very large and very sharp image and it is interesting as well. I added the link to the gallery it resides in on the military site to the image information because I had a difficult time finding where some other military images come from.  This thing seems to have nothing to do with requirements for a Featured Picture though.  To improve the image, consider a crop at the top and bottom.  A little bit of the aircraft which I assume the photographer was riding in is at the bottom of the image and there is this law of thirds for pictures of all sorts that seems to be a good one, that the image should have three mostly equal areas -- so a little off the top and the bottom would probably help.  After the crop, it just might make it through the FP review.  It lands vertical eh?  That would be very interesting to see. -- carol (talk) 02:42, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
 * How's this crop? [[Image:F35test edit.jpg|thumb|Edit 1]] Elephantissimo (talk) 16:15, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's the frame that seems to work. I have no idea what they like in FP but this image now has none of the things they don't like. -- carol (talk) 18:25, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
