LOFOTEN ISLANDS,
NORWAY
Space
oddity
Photos of big air jumps are not
uncommon: look online and
you’ll find numerous images of
spectacular tricks. This shot
of German skier Sven Kueenle,
however, is different. When
British photographer Pally
Learmond first caught sight of
the white suit, he saw Kueenle
not as an athlete, but as a man
sent from space. “Armed with
the spaceman analogy, it was
obvious to me that we needed
to see Sven flying,” explains
Learmond. “The result was this
perfect shot of spaceman
Sven leaving a trail of snow like
the Milky Way across the deep
blue Lofoten sky.”
