The theme for the latest photography challenge was
Using Colour in Photography
This challenge was all about really thinking how you use colour in your composition, and the different effects it can have.
Colour can be used to create a mood or atmosphere in the scene you're photographing, and this can be achieved by emphasising certain colours, or choosing to highlight just one colour.
All of the photo entries from this competition theme can be seen on the
Photoh Facebook page competition
here.
Here are our finalists for the Using Colour in Photography competition:
Dinny Kelly, Adelaide
Lisa Lawrie, Brisbane
Michael Reid, Canberra
David Reichert, Melbourne
Carolyn Black, Perth
Ann Hodgson, Sydney
The Winner
The winner this fortnight is...
David Reichert from Melbourne!!
Congratulations David! You have won a $100 photography voucher!
This image really stood out to us! What a brilliant and creative use of contrast in colour.
Red and green are opposite colours, so when used together they can create such a dramatic effect. The placement of the green leaf slightly off centre also helps to add punch to the composition, whilst keeping its simplicity and effectiveness.
The theme for next fortnight is
Moody Street Photography
Photography is all about playing with light, but for this theme we're taking things a little darker.
This is all about exploring the dark, moody and black&white side to photography, and creating some hauntingly atmospheric shots with light and shadow.
Winter is the perfect time for creating some moody shots, as the sun sets a little earlier, and the fading sunlight creates interesting shadows across the city.
