This practical guide distills technical study into a clear framework for understanding color in photography. It covers the traditional RYB wheel with its primary, secondary, and tertiary hues, standard harmony schemes such as complementary, analogous, and triadic, and the real physics of color temperature in Kelvin. The author explains where these concepts matter most: at capture, in composition, under different lighting conditions, and during post-production. Written for serious amateurs who wants to start studying the subject and value optical precision and repeatable results over theory alone.
