The [color and the light](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color) are the main elements that create a melancholic mood and a graceful tone to the series.

The [vintage tonality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrova) of most of the photos creates a beautiful feel to every image. With a mixture of natural light, which usually comes from a window and a more opaque, artificial light, Rodriguez composed frames that record the solitary life of women.
