This photo was taken on a jetty at the Thülsfelder Talsperre reservoir near the village of Friesoythe in northern Germany.
This photo is ideally suited to black and white. With strong symmetry, clear silhouette formation and a subtle atmospheric perspective formed by the mist and fog in the background.
While shooting, I chose the lighting to emphasise the silhouette, while also keeping the mist and haze in the background clearly visible.
As a result, the photo has a slightly melancholic and somewhat mysterious atmosphere with strong contrasts in the grey tones.
The work fits well in all interiors and looks particularly good in clean and modern interiors.
