In this print captured by FILIPPO MONTEFORTE from Agence France-Presse (AFP), workers can be seen meticulously preparing the slope of the Large Hill individual ski jumping in the World Ski Jump Championship. The image, taken on 12 January 2008 in Tesero, Val di Fiemme, showcases an offbeat perspective with a high angle view that adds a unique touch to the composition. The scene is bustling with activity as workers scurry around like ants, each playing their part in ensuring that every detail is perfect for this prestigious event. With an umbrella-like structure providing shade overhead, they work tirelessly to create a flawless surface for the fearless athletes who will soon take flight. This snapshot captures not only the physical preparations but also conveys a sense of anticipation and excitement that fills the air during such world championships. As skiers from different nations gear up to showcase their skills and compete against one another, tension builds up among spectators and participants alike. Ultimately, it was Norway's Tom Hilde who emerged victorious in this thrilling race, leaving his compatriot Sigurd Pettersen and Austrian Wolfgang Loitzl trailing behind. This photograph immortalizes both the intense preparations leading up to this momentous event and serves as a reminder of Hilde's triumph on that memorable day. With its horizontal frame capturing all these elements harmoniously combined with Monteforte's artistic vision, this print truly encapsulates the spirit and grandeur of ski jumping at its finest.
