A feel of motion and of our northern activities in the winter! The diagonal you captured with his arm and leg extended make this perfect.

A feel of freedom, and i particularly like the sense of him skating on water, well he does obviously, but i get the feel of him skating on not frozen water.. I like that, it makes my brain jitterbug! :O) Love the golden light and that speed i feel in it!

like he was skating on oil.
perfect feeling of freedom, i miss times when we had winters like that and we could go ice skateing on our lake.
thank you for sharing it!

Jacob Jovelou Yeah, I am glad we still have cold enough to get some decent ice. I haven't skated in a while though, I will kick Ralf in the butt and go skating with him next week ;)

I voted for it. So nice colors and the blur makes the ice to water. ;)

Jacob Jovelou I am very glad you like it Willy! It was actually a lucky shot. I was following the skaters with my camera and shot perhaps 100 pictures and only one came out with OK sharpness and a good pose. Luck...

Velvet-smooth texture! :-)

Fantastic catch :) looks almost unreal! love the texture and the colours of the surface, and the pose of the skater. Well done, M :)

Jacob Jovelou Thank you so much M :) I had to wait a long time for a professional skater to pass by. All these kids and parents didn't exactly work. My hands was freezing although I had gloves... :)
