Colour
Colour is the aspect of things that is caused by differing qualities of light
being reflected or emitted by them
Saturation: the saturation of a photograph tells us how intense the colours are, a saturated image has overly bright colours.
Muted colour: muted colours are colours that are less intense; they have usually had black, white, or a complimentary colour added to them to make them like this.
Analogous colours: analogous colours are colours that are next to each other on the colour wheel, usually one of them is a primary colour, for example red, red-violet, and red-orange.
Complimentary colours: complimentary colours are colours that are opposite each other on the colour wheel, for example purple and yellow or red and green.
This is a colour wheel, we can use this in photography to see what colours go together, opposite colours on the wheel are complimentary so an example wold be blue and orange or red and green. Although these colours do compliment each other, it can sometimes look bad so I need to be wary of that when I go and take photographs
