Finding just the right balance when editing photos is difficult, but this collection of saturated color photography finds choose to over-accentuate certain features rather than produce an even flow. Saturation deals with the level of vibrancy when it comes to primary colors and photo editing consistently requires that the saturation levels are modified to create just the right effect.
When the saturation level is put to extremes, color pops like never before, but the photo then begins to take on a more dream-like, ethereal ambience. These photo sets embrace just that and use over-saturation as an artistic quality that exudes over-the-top visual opulence. Not just confined to scenic photography, the technique is heavily exercised in the fashion industry to help highlight the playful essence of the market.
