Creator
This file is in the public domain in the United States because it was solely created by NASA.
Note: the technology of the time is inherently shown in the photo, since both the foreground and distant Earth could not be in sharp focus using cameras available in 1965. (It's a feature, not a bug.) (โ€” ๐ฌ๐๐’๐๐ฌ โ€” - talk) 03:23, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - bad composition. MER-C 11:10, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Can you provide any details on that? (โ€” ๐ฌ๐๐’๐๐ฌ โ€” - talk) 07:58, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Seriously wondering which criterion it fails to meet:
    1. Line โ€” the visual path that enables the eye to move within the piece
    2. Shape โ€” areas defined by edges within the piece, whether geometric or organic
    3. Color โ€” hues with their various values and intensities
    4. Texture โ€” surface qualities which translate into tactile illusions
    5. Value โ€” Shading used to emphasize form
    6. Form โ€” 3-D length, width, or depth
    7. Space โ€” the space taken up by (positive) or in between (negative) objects
    8. Line and shape
    Replies will aid understanding for future candidate proposals. Thanks! (โ€” ๐ฌ๐๐’๐๐ฌ โ€” - talk) 00:04, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
