Another edit that ended…

…completely different of what I had in mind when starting editing…

A couple of weeks ago we had a beautiful sunny autumn day. A perfect day for a walk, so we did.
During that walk we came across this place where I already shot this picture somewhere last year. Of course that guy wasn’t sitting there anymore 😊 but it gave me the idea to re-edit the picture with some color-splash.

When I started the idea was to only keep the yellow and orange colors, but the more I worked on the picture, the more I started to think it was a shame to alter such a beautiful sunset…
So, in the end, I kept the sky unaltered and only worked/converted the guy, the wall and the stairs to B&W.
And I think that was the right choice 😉

And…as a bonus… I now have a nice B&W foreground that I can use in different other settings…
I have a feeling that that little black guy will find himself in lot of different places in the future 😉

I second that. I love the contrast of the B&W of the concrete against the beautiful splash of color. I might be wrong, but I think you increased the contrast to make the sky pop, right? It adds an edge to make the picture even prettier!

It is a very beautiful sky you have pictured in your publication.
The editing process has given a special aspect to the photo.
