Tone and Color

A.  Tone in this photo proves once again that it is key element in photograph.  The tone in this photo does many things.  For instance, the tone in this photo is used to bring out great detail.  The viewer can easily see the detailed waves in the background to the black rocks, and even the details in the wedding dress.  The tone also gives this picture a mood.  The bright detail in the sky that reflect off the dark rocks create a sense of equal harmony and drama in the photo.
B.  The tone that shows great detail in the picture works lovely the way they it is combined with texture.  For instance, because the tone in the picture creates an awesome clarity, it allows the various textures in the photo to spring out.  The cracks in the black rock, the foam in the sea, and the folds in the dress fabric all add to the dramatic mood.
C.  The color in this photograph is used in a couple different ways.  First of all, color in this photo brings focus to the the bride and the scarf she is holding.  The bride and scarf really pop out of the background because of the contrast in the photo.  It begins with the bright blue sky contrasting with the black rocks in the forground.  The white brides dress really stands out from the blue sky and black rocks.  This makes here a great central theme in the photo.
D.  The color works well in this photograph when combined with motion.  The color in the photo causes to immediatly go to the scarf which stands out in the photo.  This is where the motion takes over.  Because the scarf is twisting and turning, the eyes are able to use the scarf to naturally flow through the whole photo.
