Bike in Red Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Today we are back in Ystad.

I do not know if this bike belongs to the "Lady in Red" but it was standing at the entrance to the inner yard that could barely be seen in the Lady in Red picture from the other day.

Note the simple design of the bike.

The sign outside the building reveals that it is used as some kind of youth center.

Saturated and framed.

Thanks,
Magnus

:D

Nicely observed motif, and very well managed tech.

Hi Magnus,
I really like the composition of this picture, and the red teints. Perhaps it would have been better if the foreground and the bike would have been lightened by a flash because it is a bit underexposed compared to the street light behind.

Hej Magnus, fin bild, väl komponerad, vacker backgrund och fint ljus. Bra gjort!

Hälsningar, Christian

Hi Magnus, I am sure this is not the bike you will ride to take your tree 50 km away, or I would worry about if you could get there.
From the structure style, I think this place is not too far away from you were taking “Lady in Red” picture. I guess this bike could belong to her. A well taken picture with the complicated under the shade lighting condition. Well done.

I'm in a big shadows and light mood and your shot fits perfectly in this. I love the underexposition of the bike and those line that frame it perfectly. Well seen.

hi magnus, this is an amazing picture - basically limited to the expressive set of red, orange, yello colours; exposure is excellent and simplicity of the subject combined with the perfect composition - it all works so well here;
have a nice evening (so, that small ystad is so beautiful, lovely, was there 3 times on my way from the port up to norge);
har de bra!

Bonsoir Magnus,
De trsè jolies couleurs et un éclairage doux, on peut admirer le finesse des détails car la mise-au-point est excellente.
Le cadre est simple mais très réussi.
Bien à toi.
Daniel.

Excellent photo, Magnus. The main colors of red and yellow work very well together. Well done!

Tjena !

Well seen ! I like all those red teints. From bright in the back, to darker red in the middle, and even darker on the bike. Seems to me as if the bike wanted to escape that darkness and go back to the street and freedom...

Hälsningar,
Youssef.

Clochette (8076) 2005-05-09 15:28

WOW !!! Fortunately you have "the eye" ! As a matter of fact, the red dominant is incredible. I also like very much the half-shadow where the bicycle stands. EXCELLENT !!!

yannick (1467) 2005-05-09 15:36

It is a very nice picture, with an old time atmosphere, and very nice colours in a red harmony.
Well done,
Yannick

Hanssie (9133) 2005-05-09 16:26

The light is good,
the colours are fine,
the scene is funny,
this picture is fantastic, Magnus ! ! !

bip-bip (1837) 2005-05-09 16:41

A lot of harmony in the tones and a beautiful mix of different textures with a nice light
A great image full of character
One minor remark about the roof : too much or not enough ;)
Véro

jjbach (9101) 2005-05-09 17:00

What a lovely shot. Excellent composition with beautiful warm colours !! This goes to my favorites of course !! Excellent work Magnus. Thanks for sharing a photo like this!

Regards John

Hi Magnus,
Are you sure it isn't your own bike. It's a great composition in red. I hope the lady in red will return and you will ride her home on the luggage carrier.
groet Rob

Hej Magnus,
Et meget roligt og fredeligt billede og det er meget fedt at se en svensk cykel efter alle mine egne hollandske! ;-)
Flot at du har fanget de skånske farver her i Ystad! Godt gjort! :-D
Grtz, Lars

Fixfocus (9377) 2005-05-09 19:31

Hi Magnus!
Yes Ystad,(I tell you a secret,I´ve reed all
Wallander thrillers from Henning Mankell so I´m quite familar with Ystad ;-))))
A fine moody compo,good handling of the light contrast from fore,-to background!The red bike repeats the color of the wooden construction of the houses,-excellent shot.
regards!

singuanti (15240) 2005-05-09 22:36

Hello Magnus. What a beautiful little scene we have here. I love the way the bike is leaning over plus the look of the dirt in the cobblestones is fantastic. I think the saturation boost gave this shot a nice visual boost. I like this shot a great deal Magnus, congrats!

baba_flies (7937) 2005-05-10 3:23

What a cosy little corner you show us here. The colors give it a special and warm atmosphere.

cessy (13647) 2005-05-10 4:58

nice !!
excellent compo, great control on light. the tone also superb

supereira (9576) 2005-05-10 6:45

Interesting shot.I like the composition and point of view.Good textures,light and sharpness.Very good colors and contrasts.Well done!

hdl (6733) 2005-05-10 10:17

Very good picture! Original, good quality and great atmosphere you created here. I think the tyres need some air ;-)

greg64g (11193) 2005-05-11 3:33

Hello Magnus,

cheers
greg

naxius (16679) 2005-05-11 4:19

Hello Magnus,
I did not see this photograph yesterday!
This is really nice. I like the light that gives warm colors.
Bravo Magnus !!
Alex

kent_s (1911) 2005-05-11 5:59

Magnus eftersom vi nu är i Wallanders håla får vi gå till botten med det här.
Hojen ser lite väl dansk ut. Dessutom ser den ut som en herrcykel ombyggd till dito dam. Vi har ju redan konstaterat att bönan på föregående bild var klädd i rött. Vilket oxä är Danmarks nationalfärg. Enligt mitt sätt att se på det hela så har vi en skäligen misstänkt ägarinna till jonnen ovan.

Angående bilden i sig själv, Helt enkelt fantastisk. Ytterligare ett bevis på att enkelheten gör perfektionen.

Snygg skjutet
Hälsningar
Kent

Jeppe (18623) 2005-05-11 17:03

Oh I missed this one - a very special bike construction as well and with a fine background - thanks magnus for this fine capture whitch fits in two of the themes.

mumek (17464) 2005-05-13 16:42

What a beautiful warm colours Magnus!
Nice composition, excellent light, very good details.
Congratulations
ziggy

joseelias (367) 2005-05-16 8:51

Great atmosphere in this one. The careful balance of the exposure created a very soft, warm and pleasant image. Great color also. If I would ask for something it would be for someone entering the frame from the right part and looking at you or the bike, but it’s still a great image.

RegisMinot (1317) 2005-05-16 18:05

Congratulations for your sense of observation. The red colour and the diagonale of the bike's frame are in harmony with the shape and colours of timberings. It is also telleing a story or at least suggesting it. Who owns the bike ? Considering its style and the way it was placed near the wall, one can imagine some young boy.
Very good picture !

faubry (32197) 2005-05-20 18:19

i like this shot with this bicycle are waiting somebody in front of the red house, good light and colors
thanks
francine

devimeuxbe (55673) 2005-05-21 18:15

Hi Magnus
Beautifull composition. I like the light and the graphism. The different red colors and well done too.
Thanks Bertrand

Stepan (27167) 2005-05-22 5:49

A classical and arty touch. A right dof, a sweet light, sweet colors too... A great shot.
What else could I say !?
Stéphane

jafadabret (38927) 2006-03-28 4:34

Bonjour Magnus, j'aime le décor très géométrique et coloré pour ce vélo d'un autre âge. C'est une photo qui plaît tout de suite. Merci de montrer de tels clichés.
