The little girl in a pink fluffy world

Sun, 13 Jun 2010 21:00 +0200

A little girl in a selling booth in the bazaar of Bursa, Turkey.I was saving this picture for some more post processing work. The main reason was that the jersey of the girl was orange. So it made the overall shot a bit weird with many colors that were not matching that well.I used the hue adjustment filter in CS3 to adjust the whole thing. I combined it with a gradient map to soften the overall colors and highlight mainly pinks and greens. Hope it works.Until next time...

The crowd emerge from the depth of Moscow underground network at Kiyevskaya station, Moscow.Before going back to the cold, I took this picture at the exit of the station. There was a large flow of people walking out of the escalators and passing through the hall under a cool yellowish light.I really like the Moscow metro system for its amazing ornament from the communist era. It is quite an old fashioned style but it reaaly put it to the level of London or Paris underground architecture.see you...

Statue of Poseidon in front of Göteborg museum of Art, Sweden.
I was in Göteborg some weeks ago for work reason. I brought my camera and tripod and was lucky enough to have a nice evening, free of rain and with plenty of time to walk in the city center.It was good to walk back in these streets, remembering of my time in this city. One of my first stop was in front of this statue at the end of the Avenue, the main street of Göteborg full of Restaurant and Night life. Well, it was pretty quiet that evening as it was a week day, but anyway it was a good time.
