Overview

In The Power of Color in Nature Photography, author and photographer Rob Sheppard teaches you how to master color and create compelling and effective photos every time. He shows how you can use colors to change emphasis in a photo to affect where the viewer looks, and he walks you through the effects of light on color, from front to back light, and gentle to dramatic, so you can get just the effect you want. Finally, he discusses how to strengthen the composition of your photographs through your color choices or by creating color contrast, and how the wrong colors can detract from your images.

Follow along with Rob and you will:

  • Strengthen the composition and effectiveness of your photos using the power of color

  • Use a variety of light effects to enrich and highlight the colors in your images

  • Create mellow images with gentle colors or dramatic images with color contrast
