Back To Summer Photo

Photographer’s Note

The weather in Gothenburg today was very grey. Much better to look at this photo from June, last year.

This is Asperö, in the southern archipelago of Gothenburg.

Good evening, Gunnar!
Yes, back to summer! A really summerly picture with the wonderful detail of this "flying" boy. For a landlubber also the structure of the water surface is noteworthy here. The rope with the yellow floats in the foreground in terms of colour is a nice additon here.
Greetings from today grey and cold (-2°C) Siegen!

Hej Gunnar,
I guess for the boy in the green swimming-trunks there could be no better way of spending winter than hanging just above the surface of this tempting water. A fine, balanced composition with some nice yellow elements filling the foreground.
Hälsningar,
Gert

Hello Gunnar,
A nice summery feel to this pretty composition, very redolent of summer family holidays. The inclusion of the yellow buoys is well thought out; they add depth to the scene and make a foreground anchor point. Thanks for sharing.

Hej Gunnar,
perfectly timed picture from you. The image is so dynamic with the guy suspended in the air before crashing in that wonderful blue sea. Your focus is very good to accommodate all of the various depths. A most wonderful picture full of colour and joy.
All the best.

Hej Gunnar,
while still living in the midst of cold winter, it's a pleasure to look at bright summer photos - especially at photos taken in those places/countries where the summer is short and warm sunny days are so precious!
It's funny how you captured that boy in the air! Was it a series of consecutive shots?
Warm greetings from cold Moscow (it's freezing again here)!

Gunnar,
This is a nice action shot! Your composition is fine with the inclusion of the yellow floats in the foreground and the dock leading in from the side of the frame. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail.
TFS,
Asa
