Lighting & Color Changes

Edited Photo

I basically just added some color to the photo's so they weren't so dull looking. I bumped up the highlights, shadowing, etc. That brought more depth to the picture also, all with photoshop!!!.

Landscapes Around Vermont

One thing i've learned about landscapes over time is that lighting essentially doesn't matter as much as another kind of shot would. It can be dark, bright, white, black, etc. but the view is what makes the landscape picture in my mind.

Apple Tree Lighting

I took tons and tons of pictures of this tree through out the day and have to say these are the ones tat stuck out the most. My favorite would have to be the morning shot, it's bright and full of color. The afternoon picture had the sun in the background which left it kind of hazy and shadowed. The night picture came out good, and I like the coloring in the background but I think it also kinda has that hazy, shadowed look.

Color Schemes

Monochrome

This is a pear tree we have in our yard. I thought all the different shades of green made for a good and simple picture.

Complementary

The whole top of this Burning Bush is turning a bright beautiful red and the bottom leaves are still green so I tried to get the half-way point.

Analogous

Fall leaves in our yard, red, orange, yellow, and everything in between.
