Yes! Yes! Yes!
I looked at these photos last night, and didn't really know what to say, but you've done it for me.
There's a certain "heroic" aspect to this series as a whole (especially the last one) that has an almost propagandistic feel about them. Almost like Reifenstal (sp?), but of course, not in a bad way, just stylistically.
Thanks for voicing what I couldn't.
cheers, frank

I like them; they give me an impression of a joyful play with photographic stereotypes. The archetypical athlete portait, the archetypcial strong youth, and with a touch of propaganda estethic as well.

The colors are those of the �landish flag, actually. Yellow and blue, plus a bit of red as well.
