Color -- Monochrome




The use of color in photos can have extreme effects on the tone and emotion a viewer receives from it.  For example, in this set of images, the overwhelming amount of blue personally causes a sort of sadness.  Different colors evoke different feelings and emotions for everyone, so when constructing a photo based on color, this is important to remember.  While experimenting with this element, I found it interesting that although my images were almost entirely blue, the elephant was still a very solid focal point.  When working with monochrome colors, I found that it is important to incorporate different textures in the image.
