- Info The 'Neckarfront', a set of houses along the Neckar river in Tübingen, Germany, almost all of which are listed buildings - and, I feel, captured here in a sensitive and well-composed shot. created by Aristeas - uploaded by Aristeas - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 11:25, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

- Oppose FP, if the disturbing tree on the upper right part wasn´t there. --Milseburg (talk) 14:12, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Comment I have actually tried to take this photo with less hedge and tree at the right, but it was not possible – I could not stand on the other side of the hedge (there’s a pretty steep slope there), and if I moved farther forward or backward along the river, the perspective of the buildings was worse. Therefore I decided it was the best possible solution to include the tree, which is actually interesting because it is typical for the Plataneninsel. --Aristeas (talk) 19:56, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support Thank you for nominating ;–). I have added an English description. --Aristeas (talk) 18:10, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support high-quality and beautiful. And yes, as A.Savin mentioned above, this place truely is a nice place to live. Ahmadtalk 18:39, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

- Support - As others have said, this photo really sells Tübingen effectively. I want to go there now. Perhaps their Tourism Agency would like to use this photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:01, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Very nice, but why blurring all the faces? As far as I understand COM:PEOPLE#Identification, Commons does not encourage this practice. These people are very small in the picture, then I don't think publishing an image with them is really a problem. In any case nobody usually do that when uploading a picture of a touristic site with a crowd for example. Here this attempt to anonymise ruins it a bit at full size, in my view. Beautiful riverbank with colorful buildings, but I would prefer to support the non-retouched version -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:18, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - I agree with this. When you are outside in public, you have no presumption of not being seen or photographed, and they are not the main subjects. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:22, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Comment The blurred faces were my attempt to satisfy the GDPR at least partially (there is much unsureness about the exact meaning of the GDPR for photos like this one under German photographers and lawyers), but now that you're all saying it's not necessary, I will be brave and upload a on-retouched version. ;–) --Aristeas (talk) 09:38, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support Very nice. And would these people be sitting along the river or rowing on a pleasure-craft instead of being at their office, I'm sure even their boss would not recognize them -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:52, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
oppose- was going to support, because it is a lovely photo, but when I look at it in full resolution I just can't look past the blurred faces. even the people really far off have little smudges. happy to switch to support with a new version. — Rhododendrites talk | 04:52, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Comment @Basile Morin: @Rhododendrites: New version without masking uploaded. Best, --Aristeas (talk) 10:36, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for that, for what it's worth I think it's an improvement too. Huge numbers of FP landscapes contain little figures like that, I don't think any of them are prominent enough that there should be any GDPR concerns. Cmao20 (talk) 13:37, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
