•  Comment User:Stephlonfils, your name is Antoine Rose? This is quite a good photo. I can't tell - are the skiers all different individuals, or were any of them Photoshopped? Even if they were, it's still a great composition, but it would be interesting to know. There's one thing that seems problematic to me: the shadows all look purplish to me. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:57, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

• @Ikan Kekek: , it seems that Stéphanie LONFILS is a different person, but working with or for the artist. -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:39, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

•  Comment I see. Thanks for explaining. I wish the artist would answer my questions, though. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:56, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

•  Support Very impressive. I really hope the legal aspects can be clarified, it would be wonderful to keep this as well as the other photos by Antoine Rose on Commons, they are excellent examples of creative photography. --Aristeas (talk) 18:56, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

•  Strong support. This is awesome. I could not believe it was a photo at first sight, given the elongated shapes of the shadows. The composition is breathtaking. There's a short Vimeo on this work -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:39, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
•  Support Very creative; let's hope it's an authorized upload. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:12, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
•  Comment I've emailed the artist directly in the hope of clearing up the licensing issue. — Rhododendrites ^talk |  14:07, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

  Me too :-) Till (talk) 14:39, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

• A big Thank you to both of you! Sometimes two is better than one ;–), and it is really important in this case. --Aristeas (talk) 15:58, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

• It sounds like it was uploaded with the consent of the photographer, but it does not sound to me like the terms of CC BY-SA are going to be compatible with his intentions (i.e. we don't allow NC). Email thread is ongoing. This nomination should just proceed, and if it's deleted so be it. At minimum, it was not uploaded by someone with no connection to the artist. — Rhododendrites ^talk |  15:40, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

•  Support assuming licence issue can be resolved. Very imaginative use of aerial perspective - looks even better zoomed in. --GRDN711 (talk) 11:51, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

•  Neutral since the image does not have a licensing tag and will be deleted in a couple of days without one. Daniel Case (talk) 02:14, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

•  Comment Sorry about the way this ended. I should have noticed (and resolved) the license issue before nominating this image. Many thanks to everyone who voted anyway. --Till (talk) 06:49, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

• @Till.niermann: Thank you! It’s really a pity. – Could you please add {{Withdraw}} to this nomination? That would be the usual way to end it. Else we could get the funny situation that the photo is promoted to FP status after being deleted ;–). Best, --Aristeas (talk) 08:54, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
