yellow Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

I photographed with the 35mm objective on the D90. This lens is very interesting, because one must concentrate strongly on the substantial. The photo was however a test and an experiment at the same time.

The color yellow has also psychological meaning.
Yellow is also one of the interesting signal colors, - particularly also for photographers.

"Yellow is the color evoked by light that stimulates both the L and M (long and medium wavelength) cone cells of the retina about equally, with no significant stimulation of the S (short-wavelength) cone cells. Light with a wavelength of 570–580 nm is yellow, as is light with a suitable mixture of somewhat longer and shorter wavelengths. Yellow's traditional RYB complementary color is purple, violet, or indigo, while its colorimetrically defined complementary color in both RGB and CMYK color spaces is blue." (thanks to wikipedia)

Hallo Wolfgang, guten Morgen,

da lieferst Du mir ja eine passende Erklärung für meinen derzeitigen Gelb-Tick.. ;-))
auch hier wieder eine tolle Annäherung an das Objekt, wobei man noch streiten kann, wem hier das Hauptaugenmerk gelten soll, der gelben Pfalnze oder doch eher dem Personenkreis im Hintergrund.. egal wie, einfach eine tolle Aufnahme

viele Grüße und einen schönen Feiertag, Gruß Bernd

Very interesting Note on Yellow..

According to the psychologists when you think about lemon you've got more saliva in your mouth... The pic is so well caught that I've just had tea with lemon;)))

Wolfgang,

Enjoyable shot - the way he conceals this lemon from his fellows - but the note is way too technical for my tiny brain! Think I'll just enjoy the shot! :)

Cheers
Colin

Hello Wolfgang, it's interesting to see a lemon branch and palm leaves in Germany. But if I am not mistaken it could be a flower market. Very mouth-watering photo with your excellent focus on the lemon :)

Best regards, Tolga
