EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Stewart Fraser from Colorsport Images, we witness the sheer determination and skill of Austria's Wolfram Ortner as he competes in the 1979 FIS World Cup Men's Slalom event. The image transports us back to a time when skiing was at its peak, showcasing the raw intensity and adrenaline that characterized this thrilling sport. Ortner's unwavering focus is evident as he navigates through the treacherous slopes of Kitzbuehel, one of the most challenging ski resorts in the world. His body leans forward with precision, perfectly balanced on his skis as he tackles each turn with remarkable agility. The frozen spray of snow behind him adds an element of dynamism to the photograph, emphasizing his incredible speed and control. Fraser's expert timing captures Ortner mid-action, freezing a fleeting moment that encapsulates both power and grace. The monochromatic tones further enhance the timeless quality of this image, transporting viewers into an era where skiing legends like Ortner pushed boundaries and defied gravity. This print serves not only as a testament to Ortner's exceptional talent but also pays homage to an era when ski racing reached new heights. It invites us to marvel at these fearless athletes who dared to conquer nature's formidable challenges while leaving their mark on sporting history.
