UB40


For my first blog about colour proportion I chose this landscape photo, of unknown origin (from my personal reference). This is a great image in terms of colour balance, it is dominated by greens and blues but has been balanced with post-processing effects in order to bring out the more neutral colours. You could argue that it has had its saturation increased slightly too high. The photographer has obviously tried to push the orange glare of the sun, and the grey/red tone of the mountain rocks as far as possible in order to make the image as interesting as possible, but in my opinion this has brought the greens out slightly too much, carefully desaturating the greens would bring this image into harmony.
