Project 3- Colors and Grids

For this project, we explored colors.  With our colorful photographs, we created 4 grids using Lightroom.  These grids were made of cool colors, warm colors, complementary colors, and monochrome.  Our last photo was not made into a grid, and was intended to set a certain mood.  I took all new photos for this project and took advantage of the Portland fall colors to make the color grids.
