Color BLAST

Hard to believe, this is a self-taken photo of my daughter. In high school, she really got into photography and would experiment with taking photos. This was a good one. Even though it is in black and white, a big blast of color all around will bring your eye to the center. Almost monochromatic, the bold colors add drama. Over doing it on embellishments will draw the eye away from the photo.Try keeping the detail in one area. Notice how there are no embellishments except in the flowers...and they are embellished as much as you want with flowers, button centers with ribbon in the button holes. This one was a lot of fun!!
