I found working with color in this particular image was successful as I was able to achieve a neutral image. I enjoy color most in this image because the simultaneous reflection and complimentary blue and orange tones. The subtle green in the center is a good contrast and then the blue in the top right is small but still in having that there keeps the viewers eye moving about the image and ties it back together with the blue in the lower half.
I found this image successful for the use of color to balance the image. The peach tones in the left to contrast the blue on the right. The image also has symmetry in multiple ways: having similar tones on the far left and far right to bring it all together, the dark of her skirt and the dark of under the bed, the highlight in the window with the contrasting dark under the bed, the highlight on the left portion is mirrored by the highlight on the side of the bed.
This image started difficult as it is night and there are a couple different light sources. The blue in the sky became muddy as I adjusted for a neutral. The greens in the tree and the grass started to become red. The biggest challenge was the grass on the right side had tones if blue while the other side had tones of red. The more I adjusted the more and more unnatural it became. Overall, I think it had yellowish tones and just hard to look at.
This image was a harsh mix of green tints in certain places and red tints in others. It was a mixture of different light sources. I added a layer of blue to the sky which helped a bit with the greens and reds. It made it a little better to look at and maybe even a little more natural. Everything on the lower half remained muddy. Both in this image and the one above, it was poor planning and poor lighting.
