P52.2 Framed {Week 34} - Color Study 4

It's Photographer's Choice in our final week of color study and we are finding creative ways to put what we've learned to use. My images are not particularly colorful, but shot with our lessons in mind. The first is a nod to analogous color schemes, with hints of green and blue, and the second draws on the complementary tones of red and green. 

Please head over to Who We Become and see how my fellow participants rounded out the month. 


P52.2 Framed {Week 33} - Color Study 3

This week in our color study, we are investigating achromatic photography. An achromatic image is one that is without color. This can be a black and white image, or a color image shot composed of only greyscale tones. I attempted to find the latter. Graffiti, pavement, my favorite mug and a black granite countertop...it was fun to try and locate spots lacking in color. 

Please stop by Who We Become to see everyone's interpretations - our achromatic efforts make for a harmonious collage, yet stand in stark contrast to the bright imagery posted in recent weeks. 

P52.2 Framed {Week 32} - Color Study 2

Happy Mother's Day and welcome to week 32 of P52.2 Framed. We are in our second week of color study - this time using complimentary colors (colors across from each other on the color wheel) as the foundation of our images. 

I was searching all over for useable color combinations this week and at the eleventh hour I hit upon some blue/yellow combinations. First, some bubbly at brunch and then some fun graffiti. 

Please check out what the rest of the group has found this week over at our collaborative site, Who We Become

P52.2 Framed {Week 31} - Color Study 1

It's a new month and spring has finally arrived for most of us. With the improving weather, we are hoping to brighten things up a bit by embarking on a color study. For our first week's assignment, we focused on creating images with analogous colors (colors adjacent to each other on the color wheel, such as the warm tones in my image) or with a monochromatic color scheme - varying tones of the same underlying color or the more traditional black and white. 

I admit, this shot was not taken with our assignment in mind, but with the beautiful red and yellow flowers, her orange shirt and her gorgeous smile, I had no choice but to post this image of my dear, dear friend and fellow P52 participant, Kami Chaudhery.
