COLOUR HARMONY THROUGH COMPLIMENTARY COLOURS

 

I gained feedback suggesting the glasses shot would have benifited from being square

on instead of at an angle as I had originally included. I have taken the photo again

using this suggestion and found that it does in fact work better.

It was also suggested in this section that the image to show green and red, I.e. the

lollipops, was weak and needed attention. As I stated in the reflections page I hadn't

realised that the yellow in the picture took away from the colours actually trying to be

portrayed. I have changed this image using skittles as I wanted to keep to the same

sort of subject.

 

By using a black background, the red and green are emphasised and stand out more.

COLOUR HARMONY THROUGH SIMILAR COLOURS

The image with the vacuum and the mop showed purple as more blue. This was a

colour combination I struggled with and have struggled to find another image to

replace it. However again not wanting to stray away to a completely new subject to

shoot, I used mega blocks and found these to colours work well together.

 

I also took a more natural picture to illustrate this combination further. I personally

like the top image best for showing the colours but I like the below image for the

composition.

 

 

COLOUR CONTRAST THROUGH CONTRASTING COLOURS

As suggested for the tractor having more space around it to improve the composition.

I have done this and agree with my tutor, it works very well.

 

I have changed the image for green and purple giving it a new subject matter and

hopefully better execution.

 

 

I like this image. It shows the purple in focus showing it off more against the green.

 

The image taken for purple and orange has been removed as suggested. The image

wasn't one of my strongest and didn't sit well with the other images.
