Contre-Jour shot of hotel sunbeds. I love into-the-light or contre-jour images. I guess they have a similarity to the minimalist images eleswhere on this blog. Contre-jour images tend, like minimalist shots, to be simple and uncluttered, but whereas in minimalist shots, use might be made of bold colour, in contre-jour shots, use is made of bold shapes, which are usually silhouettes. It can be quite useful to obscure the sun in these kinds of images, as I have here by hiding it behind a flagpole. Nothing else was done with this image, it was taken using the camera meter reading as it was.
