Part 1: inspired by Gary Winogrand's Women are beautiful

To start of my collection of photographs in the style of Garry Winogrand I have created to pictures inspired by his collection Women are beautiful. In this collection women in ordinary situations are photographed, either posing or naturally. One picture that struck me the most was this image of a woman walking because of the skewed horizon line and the fact that her walk is more of a pose than an actual movement. I tried to convey the same sense of stillness and motion utilizing the motion blur tool, I took still shots but gave them a fake motion Another was this image of a woman in a phone booth. The picture is tilted however because of the position of the women it looks like the tilt is real and she is accommodating it. I left two of my images in black and white but left parts of the others in color.

New York: post 1

This is a small cropped portion of a larger image of New York. I decided to crop it to give a more panoramic-like view and to isolate the scene I liked. Then in photoshop I reduced the saturation except in some parts and in others gave it a yellow/red tint. I cropped it even further so half the scene is under the scaffold with a black background and scattered color and they other is relatively grey with no color. I made the crossing sign the focal point with a bright yellow color
