The subject of my photo essay is the Braga and the area surrounding it. I selected this place because of its sentimental value to me, and all the good times(and the bad) I've had here. I'm trying to portray the concepts of architecture melancholy. My images highlighted the architectural values of the bridge and elements that demonstrate that is is old and solid. I used leading lines and black and white editing to connect all of the pictures I took into one unified photo essay. I tried to focus on the lighting while I composed my pictures. The dark lighting and use of negative space effect the viewers ideas of sadness and mystery.
