Working in Color: Intermediate Photography

This intermediate digital color class via zoom will explore ways color can work with exposure and composition to produce compelling imagery. We'll examine how different colors interact to create a sense of mood and atmosphere. The selection of color and tone can have a calming effect or generate tension. Primary and secondary colors will be discussed along with warm & cool, monochromatic, and pastel colors. As well, the effects of different kinds of lighting (contrasty & overcast, e.g.) will be seen to influence the perception of color. Tripod is required. The class will have two Sunday morning field trips with the instructor on April 12 & 19 (details given in class). Instructor's work has appeared in National Geographic publications.
