Photographer’s Note
This picture is taken in fishing village of Kuggören. This village is situated by the Baltic Sea in a peninsula called Hornslandet in the province of Hälsingland. Most of the houses of the village are now summer houses, but there are still two or three fishermen left in the village.

Hej Ulf,
These are my favorite colours, at least in a photo: the red hut, the white corners and the blue sea! This is also well composed with the clear white corners etc. in good angles. The ground looks very stony and sterile although there are some green patches in the background. A very Nordic picture!

Hi Ulf,
Nice contrast of colors with such a light, perfect sharpness, concerning the composition i think that a position more on the right for the cabin was more interesting to have a large view of the blue water on the left side ...

Hej Ulf,
These sturdy and colourful little fishermen's houses dominate the scene in a striking way. The combi of different lines/textures (houses vs the rocky ground) is pleasing to the eye too. A simple and lovely compo - I like it a lot !
Cheers,
Have a great weekend!

Hej Ulf,
This is a very appealing image, probably also because of the clean attractive colours!
Kyrkans Hus, hmmmm....
A lovely composition where my eyes tend to move on and seek the horizon!

Hej Ulf,
it is indeed the Scandinavian mix of colors that makes this impression very attractive. The perspective of the houses is fantastic and the colors are amazingly bright. A very pleasant composition. There was one important lesson among the many rules I learned here and that is trying not to center the subject of a composition. I think this will work here too. But it is nevertheless a very fine photo. TFS!
Warm regards

Hi Ulf!
So typically Swedish and typical of the Baltic coast! The Swedih red comes out perfectly on the Brownish rocks and on the beautiful blue sea!
The sharpness is excellent!
Thanks for sharing, and have a wonderful weekend!
Marie louise.
