- Color contrast (complementary hues).
- Color harmony (related hues).
- Vivid, pastel, or neutral colors (high, low, and zero saturation).
- Value contrast (high and low luminance).
- What makes this color combination appropriate or inappropriate for this particular image?
- Home activities

- In the textbook, read chapter 7 (pp. 112-125) and read the photography section of chapter 10 (pp. 153-165).

A Tribute to John Parker.
- Record your attendance on the sign-up sheet (ask for it at the front desk of the gallery). This is worth 2 points.
