Hallo Gunnar!
A photo which puts the viewer into good humor - and a sight which is very appropriate in these times of rain and grey. I like the composition of the picture, these wonderful colours and the relaxed atmsophere ...
Greetings from - well - hazy and grey Germany!

Hi Gunnar
I like the flattened perspective from the zoom lens. Good sharpness, contrast, & colour. The rollerblader makes a nice focal point, & good repetition of the bg palm trees. Tfs!

Hello Gunnar,
I'm afraid I was never able to get to grips with the film of the same name ;-) A good composition which captures well the essence of the lifestyle in Southern California.

Hi Gunnar,
Lovely tropical west coast scene with the lovely plams contrast brilliantly with the vivid blue sky where the joggger meets to roller blader.
Here in my neck of the woods the winter snow is melting into a sea of mud.

Hej Gunnar,
Bra action-bild! Den gröna linje av palmer i bakgrunden står mycket fint mot de blå bergen i fjärran.

Hi Gunnar, Nice view, so sunny! These pallms are so tall, silar ones were in Palm Springs. I like also this green carpet - I have read lately it is called donkey's ears. It is not so bad in California... Very pleasant view, I could go there again..
Regards
How is your brother in India?

A very attractive photo. The row of palms against the blue background is giving an almost graphical effect. Beautiful light and colours, excellent clarity and sharpness. A joy to view!

Hello Gunnar,
The title of the image refers to a superb film, from which environment is quite different from this peaceful and healthy scene. I appreciate the blue bottom of the image. I like the elegance and the grace of this sporting young person. Framing is judicious, the excellent realization. Cheer.
Have a nice evening
Cordially

This image just has to be California, or at least the idea of California gleaned from movies. The palms, skater and jogger all seem typical. You caught the skater at a good time with one foot off the ground.

Hej,
A well composed picture where the curved line of palms catch my attention just as much as the blade runner. The "body language" of the woman speaks of a quite good speed.

Hello Gunnar,
excellent perspective view. The "blade runner" is the key "attraction" in this case :)
I like the place which looks very beautiful: all those palm-trees in a row, very hazy blue mountains and a sunny day!
Very good choice of a square format of the composition.
Best regards,
Elena
