Two Friends by Kirsten Bruening
This photograph shows two friends taking a walk together in the surrounding buildings of the Louvre Museum. The area around the Louvre is characterized by old buildings and narrow streets that just invite to create photographs in black and white. Paris is the city of black and white photography. A color photograph would never truly reflect the charm and beauty of this city.
Into the Light by Kirsten Bruening
This photo was taken on a rainy day in Paris. It was very hazy and the whole city just looked gray. On the banks of the Seine there are many bridges that cross the river. The stairs of the bridge were still after and the light reflected in the wet steps.
Shadows by Kirsten Bruening
This photograph was taken at the Orsay Museum in Paris. At that time there were various exhibitions on the subject of contemporary events. The only light source that was present was limited by the clock face.Due to the low incidence of light from the front, the people looking at the exhibition could only be represented as shadows.
