At least 3 photographs
Purpose
To explore the impact on mood which using soft colours has
in landscape images
Technical learning
- Muted colours create their own mood
- Fog or mist are nautral softeners of colour
- Water as a reflective surface does the same
- Location can provide a small range of colours, e.g. autumn leaves, clay quarry
Exercise instructions
Shoot at least 3 scenes where the colour range is
neutralised, i.e. the ranges of hues is so small that the image has a colour
cast. Each picture should be different. Do not use filters.
Images and Review
Road by the golf course in fog, Weybridge
Fog The fog muted the colours of the trees, grass and the road running through the course |
Seagull launches on semi-frozen lake, Bushy Park
Water reflection The contrast between the gull and its reflection in the lake shows how water tones down colours. The overcast conditions add to the effect. |
Dawn at Sanxenxo, Galicia
Light Early dawn light created a blue colour cast over the sky, town and water |
