Sergel Torg, a photo from Uppland, Svealand

Photographer's Note

Sergel Torg - Plaza is the center of Downtown Stockholm with the Central Undergroundstation, the Kulturhuset on one side and half a dozend of shopping malls and many shopping centers and huge department stores around it. There is a lot of streetlife & action of all kind there in summer and many takeaway food tents with specialities from all over the world.

The place's name is tribute to Johan Tobias Sergel (7 September 1740 � 26 February 1814) a famous swedish sculptuerer who was born and died in Stockholm.

Extra note: this is taken from the rooftop Cafe on the 6th floor of the Kulturhuset, which also offers outdoor seating in summer. The September late afternoon sun created some nice long shadows on this popular view.

Hej Thomas
I could not imagine that the pavement of Sergel Torj could be the object of such a graphic pattern but you show us that it definitely does
I like the inclusion of the right part which frames the compo by a curve
Best regards

Ciao Thomas,
uno scatto preparato e ben studiato per creare questi effetti grafici di solito fini a se stessi ma questa volta l'immagine grafica � accompagnata dalla presenza di persone che la rendono reale .
Esecuzione tecnica di alto livello!
Complimenti
Mario

Hi Thomas
You have keen eyes in spotting daily subjects transforming it into something artistic. Good focus, sharp and the brilliant shapes form wonderful patterns, strong graphical effect and the contrast is stunning. A happy flooring obviously attracts viewers easily and thanks to your attention to detail to reveal the 'beauty' An intriguing close up, great light and contrast, that speck of red is so influential together in making this image attractive. Well done
Best regards
