Assignment 3 Feedback
Feedback from my tutor for my TAOP Assignment 3.
Exploring Color Photography
There is nothing wrong with Exploring Color Photography, and there is a lot of things right about it. It just feels like Robert Hirsch has taken a general photography manual and added the word color [sic] to every other heading, just like a house-owner looking to make a quick sale will get the decorator in to give all the walls a quick lick of magnolia. On the plus side, the book is lavishly illustrated with a large selection of beautiful (color) photographs.
TAOP Assignment 3: Colour
This assignment is all about colour. Harmonious, contrasting, complementary, accents, design, filtering, adding and subtracting, etc. I sometimes describe myself as a bit of a colour-holic, and here present 16 colourful pictures with commentaries on composition, balance and movement.
Colours into tones in black & white
In this exercise, I look at black and white conversions of a colour photograph, and how to change the tones in the picture.
Goethe’s colour relationships
From Goethe via Union Jack to autumn colours at the local crematorium. It’s about contrasts and harmonies; a lot about colours but no mentioning of Faust.
Newton’s Primary and secondary colours
I was asked to photograph scenes representing the three primary and the three secondary colours. What better place to look for colours than at the green grocer?
Back at it again
After a 7 months hiatus, I’m finally back at the study again. The first exercise is a gentle start with 20 pictures of dry paint 😉
