I really enjoyed taking pictures that were focused on one color. As I started I wanted to do red, however, when I looked around I saw that there were so many different things around that were yellow, so I decided to change my focus. Yellow has such an amazing vibrance and was often paired with black, allowing for beautifully strong contrast in these photos. I didn't add many enhancements other then simple adjustment because I wanted the original composition to stay as original as possible. I also enjoyed taking more pictures of the abstract than I ever thought that I would. Overall, I have enjoyed this blog entry so much!

So the last photograph of the parking line is my favorite I think. I really like it because you have some strong lines going through the photograph. As you look closer however you really get a different experience with all the imperfections of the asphalt. Very cool.

The yellow is so cool!! The contrast is great. My favorite was the power line one. The angle is neat and the yellow is really bright. But all your photos are really colorful, it was hard to pick a favorite.

Your Pacific Corp sign is real nice. Good angle and nice bokah. I think all of the yellow photos are a great choice of color. great Job!

I love that you picked yellow! I especially loved the texture of the picture you took of the pavement with the painted line. I really like the angles you used with the sign.
