No - there is no viewing angle that will make a nose appear elongated. A nose will appear to stick out from the face the most if the view is a straight profile - as in the Clarke photos I posted (unless the nose is substantially bent right or left). For any other angle it will appear to stick out less.
In light of a few emails I received and the way the poll questions are posed, I want to be sure my position is understood. I am saying that I can't eliminate the batter being Wagner based on facial feature comparison (maybe someone else can), and that the batter is very unlikely to be Clarke or Wilson.That's it, and that is why I did not vote in the poll.
I would hesitate to recommend that someone buy the piece based on it depicting Wagner - it may be him, but there is a risk.
The comments on stature do seem reasonable. To me the waist seems narrow - but he may just have his belt pulled tight - I don't know.
