John Lewis Putting Colour to Work in Photography

Putting Colour to Work in Photography.

Colour is how we see the world. Colour catches the eye, time is inferred by the image colour (day, year, decade), the mood of a picture can be communicated by the colour scheme and the ability to emphasise relationships between subject matter is key. Most important of all, colour can evoke an emotional response in the viewer. This presentation will track the history of colour photography, examine why colour contrasts enhance compositions, discuss colour harmonies and colour grading to produce beautiful images.
