Anticipation
During the pandemic no spectators were allowed to attend soccer games in Germany (and most parts of Europe) in 2021 and 2022. On October 1st 2022 after almost one year fans were allowed to attend a soccer game for the first time since August 2021. I had a ticket for this match and was allowed in early to take some pictures of the almost empty stadium. As the weather was typical for October (cold, cloudy) I took photos in B&W with my Smartphone I had that time (Oneplus 9 Pro) to capture the atmosphere.
Post processing notes:
Sharpening and noise reduction with the NoNoise AI, applying the "B&W Modern" B2 preset of Photo RAW MAX 2026, slight adjustments of the vignette of the B2 preset to itensify the already dramatic look of the original B&W picture.Exif information:
