Color's of the Wind :D

Hahaha I love that song.

Blue

"Blue is a popular choice for favorite color and it’s a top pick for creating harmonious, open spaces—the right shades conjure images of vast blue oceans and skies. It emphasizes quiet moods and contemplation, but it’s also connected with depression (“feeling blue,” “got the blues,” etc.). A study published in the February 2009 issue of Science found that people explore their creative sides more when exposed to blue. Participants shown ads with blue backgrounds preferred ads that emphasized aesthetics, such as pretty or unique images of a product, over the product’s technical details."

In this description blue is said to be a depressing color. I used this photo because my model, Katie, does look sad. I brightened her shirt and I saturated the background and her skin a little bit to really make the blue stand out.

Green

"There’s something both refreshing and relaxing about the color green. Culturally, it suggests wealth and prosperity, but it also inspires renewal, openness, and peace. In a 2004 survey published in College Student Journal, participants were asked about their responses to certain colors. Most found that green increased their comfort and positivity levels because of green’s association with the environment and natural states. People also see green and think of lime flavor—one experiment showed that people given a cherry-flavored drink colored green thought it was lime."

Green is a very natural color that is found almost every where in nature. Because of this I had Katie lay on the grass. Green is also a relaxing color, and my model does look super relaxed and at peace in this photograph. In Photoshop I brightened the grass a bit, and made her shirt less blue because it was distracting.

Yellow

"Yellow is an energetic color representing sunshine, vitality, and happiness. Researchers at a university in Amsterdam found that it was a mood lifter for many participants, though some believe a yellow room encourages aggression in people. It might also improve brain functions like memorization. In 2007, researchers in New York City worked with paint specialists to analyze how people behaved at cocktail parties hosted in yellow, red, and blue rooms. Those in the yellow room were more lively and boisterous compared to partiers in the other rooms and they ended up eating twice as much as anyone else."

This is my brother's dog, Tucker. I think this photo represents yellow because it is a very happy and energetic color, and Tucker looks really excited in this picture. Once again I brightened the bandanna and just cropped the picture a little.
