Fancy red swimsuit and hairy legs notwithstanding ... that is a very nice and different family photo.

Bjørn, you had and probably will have plenty of opportunities to see the lot in the flesh ;)
For instance, you seem to have forgotten my naked self in the bath tub when empty cans were being dropped on my stubborn head by Erik, the humongous flash illuminating the scene and you behind the viewfinder  ::)

This is what happens when a sexy male in red swim pants approaches a beautiful tourist female in the sea.

(Nikon's slogan would be: never go for a swim without the AW-1)

This must rank with your best, Jakov. Kudos to both parties. Plus the AW1 of course - very versatile and enticing camera ....

The red-painted  nail is perfectly positioned of course. And her entire action brings a new meaning to "underwater flash".

Although I am not really someone who makes B&W photos (don't know how to), I put the extra effort in and desaturated this one :)

Why B&W:
I like the reflection that appears on the subsurface, and the photo seems more elegant and sophisticated.

Nice 'flashes' indeed :D    The B&W is rather subtle, even mysterious. The watersurface gives the éxtra dimension to it in combination with the ..  'rest'  ;)
