Final Reflection: Complementary Colors

After you have turned in your final two Complementary Color photos post the two images to your visual journal.  Write a post answering all of the questions below in your reflection, not just a one sentence answer.

Describe the process, or workflow, you went through to create these images? How did you incorporate the two complementary color into your photos? What blending methods did you use in Photoshop? What did the addition of complementary colors do for your images? What moods or emotions stood out as a result of enhancing the complementary colors?

Explain how you were able to enhance the mood of the photographs with Photoshop or Lightroom? How well do your final images show the complementary colors?

What did you learn about color theory as a result of working on this project? Do you think your photos tell a good story?
What would you do differently if you could do it all again?
What are you most proud of?

When you have finished and double checked spelling and punctuation, post to Google. Final reflection is due Thursday before the end of the period.
