This is a simple theme, as simple as people walking on the Women's Bridge in a very quiet and cold afternoon. But what is interesting in this? It's actually a place that I have always liked, especially because I can play with different tones in the edition. Those who have followed my work know that I love composing cinematic style scenes and for this the edition is fundamental. Although there are many ways to do it, one of them is to give it a bluish appearance and then adjust color by color.
Some colors are suppressed and others are replaced by others. This style has the peculiarity on many occasions to highlight some tones more than others and low light levels. It all depends on what you want to convey.
This image is a perfect example of this. Seeing the image I can perceive nostalgic tones and the bluish one that I mentioned before goes very well with the winter season. I think that the jacket that this gentleman is wearing is great for this style. So I try to do everything possible to make my shots seem like a movie scene... It's like a class of obsession.
The famous brick buildings of Puerto Madero, originally are much brighter, are very much but should lower saturation levels and darken it a bit to give greater emphasis or prominence to the person who crosses the bridge.
In this type of editions there are some colors that I almost eliminated as green, magenta, yellow and blue. I wanted this series especially to have a cold appearance, faint colors.
The only exception I made was with this last photo of this boy but I still obscured red, I didn't want anything scandalous and these were the results.
I hope you liked this series on the Women's Bridge :)
