Terrible image
Wrong person on image, terrible pic as well.
Horrible, horrible image. Might change to something better MartinSjöborg (talk) 11:55, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
- Like what? Any ideas?
Vmavanti (talk) 15:15, 18 April 2020 (UTC) - Partly a product of the crop, the slight movement blurring is accentuated? I'd suggest the original, with Becker (and Jeff young on keyboards) might be better. Nothing else much better currently at Commons. Martinevans123 (talk) 15:28, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
- I suspect the comment was made by someone who knows little or nothing about how difficult it is for Wikipedia to get photos. In this generous world of ours, almost no one is willing to contribute one photo...not one...for the good of the project. All of these rich, famous people, all the photos that have been taken over the years, and it's difficult to find one photo that Wikipedia is allowed to use. That's why you sometimes see editors who are also amateur photographers take their own photos, which can be quite good. Good for them for taking the initiative. If you want something done, you have to do it yourself.
Vmavanti (talk) 15:43, 18 April 2020 (UTC)- And that one was taken 13 years ago, by Kotivalo, who still deserves thanks. Suggest you use a zoom, especially these days. Martinevans123 (talk) 15:52, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

Done I have replaced this with a better image from Commons. DemonDays64 (talk) 20:25, 20 May 2020 (UTC) (please ping on reply)
