Place des Vosges (22)

Here's one that has been sitting in my "to be published" folder for a long time. And to this day, I still don't know what to think of it.

The shot was taken 2 years ago at Place des Vosges in Paris. It is probably my favorite spot in this city of favorites. The sun was setting and creating a nice light on the east side of the place, which I increased(!) with some PP. By the way, the trees are real, not super-imposed on the shot.

PP Notes:
- Well, it's been so long that I don't remember all the steps, but it involved playing with Levels and Contrast a lot.

Let me know what you think!

because I love so much the contrast and the combination red-black, I wanted to turn more on abstract and crop the trees, letting only the branches

hope you don't mind!
