~~Weak Support Alt~~ You replaced the alt image I added on Cologne with yours, I feel the alt is better composed and visually compelling so I put it here and voted for it. Weakly supporting it though because it's focus isn't entirely on the bridge and it's probably not the best vantage point for illustrating the bridge since it doesn't show it all. — raeky ^{(talk | edits)} 11:54, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- You've gone and confused things by adding the alt (which was not nominated, nor is it in any articles currently), so I've changed the caption to state it is not for voting. You should probably adjust your vote too - either support or oppose the nominated image. However, I agree with you. They are both good images but I prefer the composition (with the focus more on the cathedral) in the Alt image, although the control of the highlights is superior in the nominated image.

  - The Alt image was in articles before the nominator replaced it with his image... I just didn't revert his changes. — raeky ^{(talk | edits)} 12:43, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - Yes, I understand that, but the way it works here is that the image has to currently be in an article to quality as a candidate (the exception is usually when various edits of the original photo are presented for consideration in the nomination, not different images by different authors). If there is debate over which image should be used, the appropriate location for that debate is the article talk page, not here. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 15:10, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      - I'm aware, but when i was looking where this image was used I noticed it was placed as the lead infobox image on Cologne and just put there before the nomination, so I looked at what was there before and I found the image it replaced to be likely better in my opinion. I sorta have an issue with putting a self-made image in the article lead replacing existing good images in the processes. But yea It should be brought up at Talk:Cologne. — raeky ^{(talk | edits)} 20:41, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support original, very good result --George Chernilevsky ^talk 12:51, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support original. The tight cropping of the alt does not look natural.-Caspian blue 19:20, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Amazing. - ☩Damërung ☩. -- 21:02, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support original on the basis of high EV for Cologne, as it presents three important buildings (including the Museum Ludwig on the left), and is more centered on the Cathedral. For the Hohenzollernbrücke article I would use the Alt as it is better focused on the bridge. Elekhh (talk) 22:42, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support orig. Very clear, lovely colours. Only slight shame is the scaffolding in the RH spire... Gazhiley (talk) 11:10, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
