Color Harmony
Can anyone recommend a good tutorial on understanding color harmony and also where i can download resources (Photoshop) for it. I came across this site http://www.azzurrapiccardi.com and i really liked the use of color in the photo's so any tutorial on understanding how to achieve such colors would be really appreciated. Thanks Aug 20 17 03:03 pm Link https://color.adobe.com/ This website (tool) has everything I studied for one semester of Color Theory class.. Simply said, you can use those "Color Rules" as a tool to make color harmony. I think Photoshop has this tool as plug-in, which is be very handy. And as for the website you shared, it seems the colors are very natural. The color tints in some of the pictures were result of color gels.. Aug 20 17 07:29 pm Link Start with classic. Johannes Itten is a good read. Aug 21 17 05:58 pm Link Classic theory like the one of Johannes Itten is for sure very important and not to be underestimated. Other, more practical links: 1. https://www.slrlounge.com/introduction-to-color-theory/ 2. The video in this link is in my opinion of little use but read the written guide to color theory underneath. Very informative. https://www.davemorrowphotography.com/c … hotography 3.

Where to apply them in the image is up to your own artistic view. You can input the pantone rgb code on the bottom right of the wheel by clicking on it. Then hover the cursor over the chart on the right to get the rgb code for the complimentary colors. You can even click on the different types of complimentary along the top. http://colorschemedesigner.com/csd-3.5/ Aug 23 17 10:42 am Link Lovely recommendations so far.
