I would like your advice on my color combinations

Post Sun Mar 07, 2004 5:29 pm


I am interested in color and its affect on nearby colors. Sometimes I know there's a lack of harmony in my images but I'm not sure what's wrong. Could you give me your ideas on how I can improve my photos?

The Colour Wheel

Post Mon Mar 08, 2004 2:43 pm


Basic colour theory revolves around the colour wheel (from the Canon DSLR Challenge page)
Image

Colours opposite on the wheel are considered to be 'complimentary colours' eg (Orange and Blue, Yellow and Purple) and colours that sit next to each other are considered 'similar colours'. The third class of colour combinations are those colours that sit approx a third of the way round the wheel from each other, these have strong contrast.

Hope this helps.
