"Aim: To help understand the basic properties of colour, to learn how to control, alter and modify them in photography and to use them as an element of design"
Colour functions as an element of design in photographs as much as tone or lines but it works in a different way. We all respond to colour uniquely; when used in certain ways it can evoke strong responses, both physically and emotionally. Learning to use colour well gives a photographer much more control over their photographs. Certain colours are associated with specific conditions, orange with warmth, blue with cold, red with passion or danger. I am looking forward to learning more about how to use colour in my photographs and how it can be controlled or manipulated to achieve the best results.
