Friedrichs1961, please don't upload needless duplicates of files that already exist on Commons – especially if you're going to claim to be the author of other people's works. You did not create this photo; Daniel Schwen did. Taking credit for someone else's work when they're generously allowing anyone to use it as long as you meet a few simple requirements (like attributing the real author) is pretty uncool (and illegal). —LX (talk, contribs) 14:17, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
