The Low Season Photo

Photographer’s Note

I was on a business trip to Stockholm last week. I hadn't visited the city for more than 30 years. And it really is worth a visit. But if you want to do the tourist trail, go there in the spring or the summer or the autumn. The winter is cold and grey. But still there are interesting sides to the low season, such as a tourist boat sitting empty in a harbour full of ice and snow. Not many colours on a late afternoon in February though.

Cropped, resized and sharpened.

Hi Per,
I think we should show each other the world in all its beauty and all its ugliness, the warmth and the cold, the sunshine and bad weather. Stockholm isn’t just to be shown in summer but also in winter like you did with this excellent picture.

Hej Per,
A very good compostion for this sightseeing boat. The ice on and around the boat is a nice detail and I like the view of the city in the background. Good work!
Hilsner,
Lars

This is unusual as these boats are pictured allways in the summer time, the composition is interesting and also attrative by this iced water, the lemon on the ice and the position of the boat.
very interesting
