I like the use of color on the newer structure, but it's a little too bold for me.

Comment by vadvirag:
I would like this one with full colours. The natural colours of the stone bridge and nature would be opposing enough with the unnatural reds of the new bridge. Composition is great and the subject is loveable, too. I am very curious about the full-coloured version, because personally I think making pastel colours for the yet desaturated elements would have made your shot better. This way it's a bit agressive for me. If it was the purpose, it works well, but be careful with selective desaturation. I love this technique, too, anyway. :-)

How did you do the color change. I am new and want to learn all these tricks. Thanks!

Comment by badov:
A good example of new and old but a very curious mix of forms. I hope the new bridge is not really painted bright red

the desat works well here.

Comment by Ivo:
This is really a mgnificent capture and the colorizing of the bridge was a wise decision. I feel that Sepia may have been better that B&W but otherwise....a great entry.

Comment by digitalknight:
this is too obvious. I feel like you have no faith in your audience, so you underline the point in red. Instead of going all the way to sepia in the rest of the image, maybe just subtley scale back on the saturation to make the bridge "pop", but without beating me over the head with it. Subtle is the key word for effect work.

The selective color really doesn't work and is really over-done in any case -- perhaps a duotone would have been a better choice.
