Sergels torg Photo

Photographer’s Note

It's very seldom I take photos like this, mine is usually kind of foretry ones with some old spoky house in it.
this is from the main square in Stockholm Sergels Torg where you can find this little but very pretty statue.

I like this! Very sweet, although I hope we won't have to be in suspense too long, I'd love to see the other side of her too :) A very beautiful statue!! Nice detail and lighting. Good focus and dof. TFS

hi Anders

Yeah, imagine you went into the Borneo jungle and shooting not the forest and this one :)

But changing your subject can be a good direction of seeing things differently. I like this style of sitting and it resembles very much the Buddha style, with backdrop of smoke-like screen [from fountain water?] as if burning incense sticks.

Good TE post.

tfs, bill

Hej Anders,
first of all - I want to congratulate you on such a terrific shot of this little girl the tiny statue of whom I know as well as my fingers on the hands :)
The fountain jets look a wonderful background - what a creative idea to take a shot from the back! So many times I passed by... and never took a single shot of her (let alone from such an unusual POV), can you imagine??
Kind regards,
Elena

Hi Anders. Unusual but effective POV, showing from the back adds mystery and enchantment. Wonderfully defocused BG. Nice work and thanks for sharing.
Have a good weekend, Paul.
