Swimming on the Edge

Newer Older

Explored #86.

Trying something a bit different this time. The cool swimming pool of the Intercontinental Hotel, Festival City, Dubai.

When I took that shot I was only carrying my fisheye lens, so I ended cropping a lot to get that minimalistic composition. Thanks to this anonymous swimmer to be in the right position at the right time! ;-)

Digital blending, 3 exposures, handheld. I intentionally boosted the saturation/contrast to give this surreal look. May be I should also try a highly contrasted B&W version.
