Hallo Gunnar!
What an eyecatcher! This composition with the red boat and the diagonal of the bridge creates a wonderful depth into the scenery. Thank you for the most interesting link!
Greetings from a very autumnal Siegen! Brrr!!!

Hei igjen!
Jeg synes det er et flott motiv. Dumt at industrien i bakgrunen ødelegger litt. Jeg ville kanskje hatt litt sterkere farge. Grei komposisjon. Det blir også litt forstyrrende at det er så mange objekter som "toucher" hverandre. Ellers et fint bildet fra dagliglivet på havet i Sverige.

Hilsener, Fredrik

Dobro vece iz Srbije.
Sacekaj me ...
Dobra kompozicija, boje ostrina i trenutak snimka.
Boja broda daje car fotografiji.
Pozdrav, Paja.

Nicely composed shot, the red colour is so strong taht it CALLED me from the thumbnail:)
I really like the bridge, when I was there we had a boat trip (paddan) and we turned somewhere before the bridge...
Take care,
Gosia

Hello Gunnar
I have noticed your attraction to the colour red and this is a very good example. Lots of detail as she sails under the bridge. Tfs, Marlene

Could be nice thematic picture, Gunnar. I had a look at "at this site". Your note was necessary. So happy to visit Goteborg again with you. My family around me with the same interest.

patdeph (18270) 2009-09-07 3:03

hello Gunnar
the colors and the luminosity are excellent,the light on the boat emphasizes the red,that makes a strong and beautiful contrast with the blue water and sky!Very well seen!
Regards
Pascale

asajernigan (14252) 2009-09-07 6:09

Gunnar,
The bright red boat is a real eye catcher. The bridge creates a nice diagonal through the shot. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail.
TFS,
Asa

feather (50070) 2009-09-07 7:08

I wonder what it is about the colour red that draws us in! You timed the photo well as the boat is just about to go under the bridge. I enjoyed following the links. Now I would like to know who he is piloting in or who he has just piloted out! ;D

Bonjour Gunnar,
je pense que la force des couleurs est un élément clé de cette photo très réussie ou se mêlent mouvement et statique.
Une prise très bien cadrée et nette.
Regards from Liege.
Daniel.

Royaldevon (5938) 2009-09-08 0:52

Hello Gunnar,

Well spotted!
I love the movement in this shot!
The sharply focussed, red boat really makes a fine focal point and creates a fine composition with the receding, right angled bridge.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Gunnar.
Ce bateau rouge bien cadré est magnifique. L'ensemble de la photo le met bien en valeur. Le pont fait belle impression avec ses lignes très pures.
Amical salut !
Jacques

fanni (8811) 2009-09-14 11:33

Hej Gunnar,
I have missed this photo with this lovely red boat!! I am impressed with the quality of your camera again!
I should say that this photo conveys both cheerful and a bit alarming (or exciting?) elements - due to this bright red colour of the boat which attracts attention at once. I like the perspective view, too, without doubt :)
Kindest regards
Elena

Howdy Gunnar!
Wonderful red boat, ship, nice scenery, very nice light and colors.
Cordially!

holmertz (9913) 2009-09-27 8:39

Hej Gunnar,
A very catchy picture with a fine contrast between the red boat and the green parts of the bridge. The composition is dominated by the horizontal movement of the boat, the diagonal line created by the bridge and the vertical parts of the bridge.
Hälsningar,
Gert

npecanhuk (14532) 2009-10-19 5:59
