Colors

What kind of emotion is expressed through the color scheme?

Doesn't the stark contrast between the black and salmon
give a strong impression and feeling?

Colors can be used to represent so many things!

This picture was taken at sunset during fall, one of the best
times of the year for vivid colors.

Certain color schemes appeal to the eye (harmonious colors) and others disturb the balance (having blue and orange, red and green, purple and yellow...etc.).









Some people prefer painting or taking pictures during a sunset or sunrise because of the beautiful colors.  A good majority of pictures of the Grand Canyon were taken during sunrise or sunset, when colors were the most vivid.

Only having the green colored gives a new
meaning to this image.

Color can completely alter the message in a picture or support it, and it is important to learn to use this tool well to give interesting images.

How does the bright and perky pink flower make you feel?

They can add mood to a picture or pull your attention to a certain place on a picture and not another.
