The diving platform just peeking into the frame, and the gently scattered clouds in the background tell us we are looking upwards at a woman who is in the middle of a dive. The upper part of the frame is dominated by the darkly colored surface of her swimsuit. Her arms and legs, stretching out straight, protrude boldly from the frame. At around this time Onchi Koshiro was showing a great deal of interest in cameras, and soon he began to add photographic expression to his output. The composition of this work is reminiscent of a momentary scene captured through the viewfinder. The simple and innovative composition creates a sense of movement that fills the frame.
