LightroomThe Berlin sun showed up for 5 minutes and luckily Tom Tägtmeier (tombaenre on Instagram) was ready 😎. #MadeWithLightroom "I wanted to capture Berlin not just as a city, but as a rhythm. Each frame reflects a different beat - from the pulse of Friedrichstraße to the quiet elegance of the Gendarmenmarkt dome. I look for that tension between movement and stillness, light and shadow, chaos and control. That’s where Berlin comes alive for me. I shot everything in RAW and used Lightroom to dial in a warm, slightly cinematic tone. My go-tos were the Tone Curve (to give shadows that soft lift), Color Grading for split-tones (especially in the midtones to add a golden glow), and the Masking tool to pull focus onto my subjects. A bit of radial filtering helped isolate the light in busy scenes without over-processing. The aim was to guide the eye, not dominate it."
