 This image shows contain neon colors which are shown under a UV light. All the colors are mixed together which are covering the objects hands. The objects hands can hardly be seen due to the bright colors being the main focus and standing out the most.

In this image there are four brightly colored cars which are in a black and white set. The cars automatically standout as they are being contrasted against the black and white background.

This image is similar to the above image as the bight red car is being contrasted on the black and white background. Even the women in the car is in  black and white making her insignificant i  the image due the the car being the only thing in color.

In this image two main colors are being used which are blue and red. The two colors are exploding together on the person. The two colors almost look like smoke combining together.

My definition of color is an visual element which can create a mood/atmosphere within the image.
