The perspective is excellent because it appear she is diving toward the sky. Good point of view with excellent details and placement of the subject. A refreshing view! Thanks Christian :-)

Hi Christian,
I like this one a bit better then the previous one since the girl is on it completely.
I copied both photo's and had this one rotated back to see the difference between them except for being closer to the water. A bit more rotation and no more dive into the sun.
Nice thought to rotate it.
Well timed and well captured!
Have a nice evening,
Harko

Hi Christian
Great idea... the effect is perfect.
And the composition is well done with the shadow.
Bravo

great technical prowess on this shot. How can i compete? Super. Janos

Jeppo (11862) 2009-09-21 14:46

tja, du hast das Bild 180° gedreht...und es sieht aus, als diese Frau fliegt rueber ins Wasser auf!

tja,....das Ergebnis ist gut...aber das Wassser sollte ziemlich kalt sein!

ciao

Hi Christian!

I think that from the both, I prefer this one. Despite it is less dynamic than the previous, I like the composition a lot. For its cheeky but very well thought POV, for the striking contrast between the body and the water, and the presence of the shadow. That is unconventional and you seem to enjoy a lot to try new things in photography. I like that curiosity! Bravo!

Marine

Ah ecco come era quel tuffo di schiena! Non era di schiena, ma era un tuo scherzo di voltare la foto!
Anche così è bellissima e anzi mi pare che il colore dell'acqua sia più piacevole.
Un capolavoro, comunque lo si giri!

InasiaJones (20102) 2009-09-21 23:41

Hi Christian,

Very catchy image, with beautiful gradient in the water.

Clever shot with an outstanding effect; I like how your subject dive near the sun reflection and the ultimate second before splashing the water.

Remarkable image with an artistic flair.

Cheers!

Andre

Excellent timing, a turquoise blue water, a perfect body.
Magnificent photo!

180° which make the difference with a standard picture. Well taken at the right moment, with the water reflection.
You're a magician, Christian!

Hi Christian.

Composition, POV, reflections... timming... exposure... everything is perfect on this photo.

WEll done.

BennyV (4646) 2009-09-22 9:40

This one gets me upside my head, Christian! Excellent idea to flip it over, it adds a fairy tale quality to it. This is done with good taste, I love it.

Hi Christian,
A great idea to turn the image upside down, giving a totally weird feeling. Love the trquoisy colour and the reflection of the diver in the rippled water, nice that she is jumping from the corner of the frame. A simple image with only three main elements but with a strong effect.
Regards
Wanda

cool picture! the upside down works nicely, and it's great to just see the model and the water, the lighting is interesting too

Ciao Christian,
This one is even better than the first one because you have the diver in its entirety.
Impressive!
Bravo!
Have a nice day

Like a painting with such master strokes of colors and hues. I love this composition and the drama. very well conceptualised

Uzi (1148) 2009-09-25 5:31

very good job

Leilani (1371) 2009-09-26 2:56

i'm completely taken with this image. I love the surreal effect by the rotation and the limited tonal range. It's like entering into another world. Rgds. Leilani

pastadog (12821) 2009-10-01 11:16

Ah, this is great stuff, clever rotation

Mistral (13694) 2009-10-15 13:21

Ciao Christian,
creativa l'idea di capovolgere l'immagine: dà più importanza al riflesso artisticamente segnato dai cerchi nell'acqua. Ottima la composizione e l'ottima qualità.
Un sorriso
