I desaturated some areas while using the paint bucket to fill others. I then used the blur tool to soften the edges to give a more liquid appearance.

To make the students' artwork pop, I used Photoshop to duplicate the background layer, make the duplicated layer black and white, and then reintroduced the color only in the students' paintings.

The coarse, sun-baked texture of an ancient adobe wall is rendered in striking detail, glowing with the rich terracotta hues characteristic of the Argentine Northwest. Rough layers of dried mud and clay peel back to reveal an intricate topography of earthy materials, bearing the unmistakable marks of traditional, hand-crafted construction. Flecks of organic matter and fibrous straw, used for centuries as a vital binding agent by indigenous builders, are embedded deeply within the burnt orange matrix. A razor-thin depth of field isolates the central ridge of the crumbling facade, instantly drawing the viewer's eye to the rugged, tactile surface. The foreground and background dissolve into a warm, creamy bokeh, emphasizing the organic irregularity of the structure while obscuring its broader architectural form. Natural, diffused sunlight grazes the uneven surface, casting subtle micro-shadows that accentuate the deep crevices and flaking plaster. This intimate macro perspective captures the essence of Iruya's enduring vernacular architecture, where homes literally rise from the dust of the surrounding Andean canyons. The weathering of the wall speaks volumes about the harsh, arid climate of the Quebrada region, narrating a silent history of sun, wind, and time. Vibrant ochres and deep siennas dominate the frame, perfectly mirroring the geological pigment of the majestic mountains that cradle these high-altitude settlements. It is a testament to sustainable, ancestral building techniques that harmoniously blend human habitation with the raw, rugged beauty of the Puna. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Project 23.

La textura áspera y bañada por el sol de una antigua pared de adobe se presenta con un detalle sorprendente, brillando con los ricos tonos terracota caracterÃsticos del noroeste argentino. Capas rugosas de barro seco y arcilla se desprenden para revelar una intrincada topografÃa de materiales terrosos, que llevan las marcas inconfundibles de la construcción tradicional y artesanal. Motas de materia orgánica y paja fibrosa, utilizadas durante siglos como aglutinante vital por los constructores indÃgenas, están incrustadas profundamente dentro de la matriz naranja quemado. Una profundidad de campo extremadamente fina aÃsla la cresta central de la fachada desmoronada, atrayendo instantáneamente el ojo del espectador hacia la superficie rugosa y táctil. El primer plano y el fondo se disuelven en un cálido y cremoso bokeh, enfatizando la irregularidad orgánica de la estructura mientras oculta su forma arquitectónica más amplia. La luz solar natural y difusa roza la superficie irregular, proyectando sutiles micro-sombras que acentúan las profundas grietas y el yeso descascarado. Esta perspectiva macro Ãntima captura la esencia de la perdurable arquitectura vernácula de Iruya, donde las casas se levantan literalmente del polvo de los cañones andinos circundantes. El desgaste de la pared dice mucho sobre el clima duro y árido de la región de la Quebrada, narrando una historia silenciosa de sol, viento y tiempo. Ocres vibrantes y sienas profundos dominan el encuadre, reflejando perfectamente el pigmento geológico de las majestuosas montañas que acunan estos asentamientos de gran altitud. Es un testimonio de las técnicas de construcción ancestrales y sostenibles que combinan armoniosamente la vivienda humana con la belleza cruda y escarpada de la Puna. Esta imagen es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para el Proyecto 23.

I lowered the exposure by -one stop since the building in the distance was over exposed and cropped the image on the right side to focus on reflections and angles in the photo.
A vintage, weathered dump truck crawls across the blindingly white expanse of Salinas Grandes, its bed heavily laden with freshly harvested salt crystals. The immense scale of the Argentine Northwest is palpable here, where the stark, geometric flatness of the salt pan collides with the undulating, arid foothills. Bathed in the warm, raking light of the late afternoon golden hour, the scene takes on a cinematic quality. The photographer leverages a deep depth of field to keep both the isolated mechanical subject and the distant, textured mountain range in sharp focus. Brilliant contrasts dominate the composition, from the deep azure sky and fluffy low-hanging clouds to the rich ochre and rust hues of the Andean topography. This image captures the harsh reality of traditional salt mining in the Puna region, an industry deeply woven into the local economy and culture of Norte Argentino. The truck itself, coated in a fine layer of saline dust, stands as a testament to the rugged endurance required to operate in such an unforgiving, high-altitude desert environment. Placed slightly off-center, the vehicle provides a crucial anchor of scale against the seemingly infinite horizon. One can almost hear the crunch of the salt crust beneath the heavy tires and feel the dry, crisp mountain air sweeping across the plains. It is a profound documentary shot that beautifully balances human industrial effort with the overwhelming majesty of nature. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Project 23.

Un viejo y desgastado camión volquete avanza lentamente por la deslumbrante y blanca extensión de Salinas Grandes, con su caja fuertemente cargada de cristales de sal recién cosechados. La inmensa escala del Noroeste Argentino es palpable aquÃ, donde la cruda planicie geométrica del salar choca con las estribaciones áridas y ondulantes. Bañada por la cálida luz rasante de la hora dorada de las últimas horas de la tarde, la escena adquiere una calidad cinematográfica. El fotógrafo aprovecha una gran profundidad de campo para mantener nÃtidamente enfocados tanto al aislado sujeto mecánico como a la distante y texturizada cordillera. Los contrastes brillantes dominan la composición, desde el profundo cielo azul y las esponjosas nubes bajas hasta los ricos tonos ocre y óxido de la topografÃa andina. Esta imagen captura la dura realidad de la minerÃa tradicional de sal en la región de la Puna, una industria profundamente entrelazada en la economÃa local y la cultura del Norte Argentino. El camión en sÃ, cubierto por una fina capa de polvo salino, se erige como un testimonio de la dura resistencia requerida para operar en un entorno desértico de gran altitud tan implacable. Colocado ligeramente descentrado, el vehÃculo proporciona un anclaje crucial de escala contra el horizonte aparentemente infinito. Casi se puede escuchar el crujido de la costra de sal bajo los pesados neumáticos y sentir el aire seco y fresco de la montaña barriendo las llanuras. Es una profunda toma documental que equilibra maravillosamente el esfuerzo industrial humano con la abrumadora majestuosidad de la naturaleza. Esta imagen es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para el Proyecto 23.
