An End to Tranquility at Saltsjöbaden?

[Pete Askew]

As the agreement made in 1938 is broken for the first time, the waters at Saltsjöbaden darken!

Love the shot and treatment, Pete. But not sure what the agreement was. "Don't dump orange buckets in the water"? Lovely comp and colours.

And the centrist buoy promptly goes on strike!

Lovely tones to this image, Pete. Nice to see that the waters have remained calm despite the labor unrest.

With red floats, and their past and present (center), the image is meaningful and sombre, Pete.

Do the links equate with your title?

[Pete Askew]

Thanks all. They do indeed. And the bus strikes (and a broken down train) caused me all sorts of hassle (and very large taxi bills!).

i love the contrasting colors of the red buoys (is buoy that supposed to have a u in it?) and yellow/cyan water and sky. i think you must have been in a serene mood with the images you've been posting lately.

Although it seems like it should be a serine scene there is a tension underlying the image which I really like.

 

[Pete Askew]

My thoughts too. The water did look slightly threatening. You just knew there was something lurking below the surface.

 

[Peter McCullough]

Beautiful Pete, something mysterious about that great image. Love the light, great photography.

Wow! That water is pure silk
