Reason: There's a few good pictures of him on Gallica, but I've always preferred an "action" shot, where available. It's not perfect - The original was a bit overexposed, and while I could bring it down a bit, it's very contrasty between the pure white equipment and coat, and dark background.

Support. Good environmental portrait, high EV. There's still detail in the lights and darks, so I don't mind the high contrast. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:08, 25 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I really like the image, but could we have a clear explanation of the copyright status? Josh Milburn (talk) 21:56, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- The BnF says it's Public Domain; I believe this is because it was only ever credited to Agence Rol, hence it's basically an anonymous work. I should probably tweak the copyright tag. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.2% of all FPs} 01:15, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - @J Milburn: I've clarified. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.2% of all FPs} 01:26, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
