Thanks Frank. Glad you like it. I don't have the temperament for street photography, although I love it as a genre. So '"figures in a landscape" is as close as I get, and I try when I can to get incidental human subjects going about their business in interesting ways.
As the critiques of this picture have come in, I've noticed that the swimmer, although she is in her natural element, is often seen as the surprising intrusion. OTOH the businessman's presence is seldom questioned, even though his natural element is the office or the city street. Now THAT'S surreal. regards, Anthony Farr > -----Original Message----- > From: frank theriault [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > (previous message snipped) > > I like it. > > I like the geometry and perspective, the interesting sky, his pose, > the serendipitous swimmer with the shocking pink bathing cap.
