Color





I used color to create different moods and effects in each photo. In the top photo, the colors are unnatural, loud, and almost overwhelming. The theme of the photo is similiar, having an unrealistic background, and surreal vibe.
In the second photo, the colors are eery, making the entire photo eery as well. The colors and in turn the composition are subdued, but not peaceful. Almost like the calm before the storm?
Finally, my last photo uses complementary colors in very vibrant tones as well as greatly contrasting hues of the same cool (as in skin tone) to further enhance the almost unsteadiness of the picture. There are many loud opposites being presented.

  2. These are all really good, the first one is my favorite. They each have really cool colors in them with good compositions that don't distract from the colors or anything. You can definitely tell that you wanted to capture the colors. The first one is my favorite, because the colors really pop. You can also tell that the message you were trying to get across was about nature and gardening. Good job

  3. I think that these were all very sucessfull. The thing I like about the first and third pictures is the contrast between the yellow, and the background color. In the second picture I think that the way the eye's match the background is very cool.

  4. What a great series! Great control of color temperature to convey a mood. They all tend to have a dramatic effect. Fantastic!
