1. A Sense of color
by: gabriela

2. Yellow
This is a
photo of a
sunflower
illuminated
by a yellow
reading
light.
To take this picture,
I held the sunflower
up to a white wall.
Then shined a light
on the flowers to get
the shadow on the
wall and brighten the
color on the three
sunflowers.
This shows a sense of color
because there is a variety of
different types of yellows. The
yellows are projected through the
light and flowers. Although there
are different colors in the photo,
the colors are given a yellowish
tint.

3. greenish-yel
low
I took this photo using
the natural light coming
from the sky and the light
coming through the leaves.
To get this angle I took
the photo from underneath
the tree near the trunk.
This is a
photo of a
green and
yellow
leafed
tree. This
tree was in
the big
park across
the street
from my
home.
This photograph shows a
sense of color because of
light shining through the
leaves in the background.
Also, the green leaves pop
out with all the yellow
leaves surrounding them.
Also, the yellow that is
starting seep in and take
over the green leaves.

4. Blue and pink
This photo was
from a fish tank
in Connecticut.
This a photo of
a coral from the
fish tank in my
dad’s home.
I took this photo by
placing my phone close
to the glass of the
tank. This was so there
wouldn’t be any glare
from the windows. Also
to make the coral the
main focus, cutting out
the other rocks and
corals that are in the
background. Then I found
the area I wanted to
focus my photo on.
This photo shows a sense of color
because of the UV light that is shining
from the top of the tank. This light
makes the coral and the water inside
blue. This also makes the other colors
on the coral more vibrant.

5. orange
This photo consist
of orange flowers.
This photo was taken
when waiting on the
line for a haunted
hayride.
I took this photo with my phone by
getting close to the flower arrangement
in the pot. This blurred the two front
flowers in the photograph and the pink
flowers towards the end of the picture.
I then increased the exposure and
darkened the shadows.
This shows a
sense of color
because of the
frequent color
orange throughout
the picture. The
orange flowers is
also the main
focal point.

6. pink
This
photo is
of a tree
at sesame
street
that had
red and
pink
leaves.
I took this by getting close to
the leaves/tree. Also to create
a short depth of field in the
background and to make the
reddish-pink leaves the focal
point of the photo. This also
caused a slight blur effect on
the green leaves in the
background.
This photo shows a sense of color because
the main color shown is the color is on
the reddish leaves. Also, the greenery in
the background makes the leaves pop more
in the photograph. Although there are
different colors, they are colors that
don’t clash with each other.
