I'll just get right down to business. In these articles, the author uses imagery that I cannot comprehend. I have never been an art major, or taken art classes where we talked about color. I know very little about it. And when these articles were assigned I was excited to read them. However, I have been a little disappointed.  In the '3 variables of color' section, the author starts out broad and says that he is going to explain this color model. Here I'm pretty happy with where its going. Then about a sentence into the next paragraph I find myself blindsided by advanced concepts of color. The author gets into very fine details and likely loses most of his "recreational photographers" readers. Perhaps for a person who is a little more aware of the concepts and terminology this article is much more interesting. Yet for me, who is at the most basic level of experience with photography, it came up strikingly short of my hopes of education. I had hoped I would learn something to make me a better photographer but found myself reading endlessly through what seemed to be a different language. Maybe I will come back to these articles in the future when my photography is a little more advanced. For know I think sticking to what I think looks good is fine.
