Ten scenes from Skeppsbrokajen

A pose Puddle shooter Boating Sutthoffska palatset The Captain Straight line Skeppsholmen Cinderella Noel IV Photographers Ribbåt
Often when I am out shooting in Stockholm, I stop at Skeppsbrokajen in the old town. A very good place for people photography, and more. It is across the street from the Royal palace, and there are a few good places to eat and drink down by the water. And if you cross the street, the old town alleyways are everywhere. So we have tourists posing. Puddle shooter. Boating with the dog and the girlfriend. The Sutthoffska Palace. A boat captain. Four mounted police officers at Slottsbacken. Old church turned into a concert hall at Skeppsholmen. Known as Eric Ericsson-hallen. Originally built in 1824. One of many super yachts visiting, this one is called Cinderella Noel I. Three photographers on a ferry close to the port snapping away towards The Royal Palace. And lastly, a rigid inflatable boat filled with people on their way out to the archipelago.

Nice pictures!

Regarding the uniform:
Two flat stripes plus one circle on the shoulder is usually worn by the Chief Officer, the Master (Captain) usually wear three flat plus one circle.

The puddle shooters shoe soles are in sync with his camera. I've never taken it that far.

Each of these is fascinating. Even looked closely at the guy on the top floor of Suttoffska. Wondering what he was doing besides looking out the window on a lovely sunny day. Such resolution in your photos!
