On the (t)rail to Pleasures

Lisbon, Portugal

A first attempt at using desaturation to separate a subject from the background.
It was a quick experience and I quite liked the results.
As for the subject itself, it's the number 28 tram after climbing this twisty line.

Great capture, the use of B&W and selective color is highly appropriate.
