THE PORTE CAILHAU
In the style of the old Flemish painters and traditional views of architecture, this photograph attempts to highlight the beauty of this medieval building with sobriety and gravity.
The long exposure lets the clues of modern life disappear. No one disturbs this elevation, the traces of life evaporate in a light mist that gives the foreground a touch of mystery. The gate is centered and only the lighting detaches it from the other facades. The reduced saturation and the warmth of the image give this scene a feeling of melancholy.
Porte Cailhau, Bordeaux
