SUMMARY
Photographer Alex Kilbee explains how to elevate images by making a single color the dominant element in the frame, a technique that goes beyond monochrome. He illustrates this with three examples: using orange to highlight a lighthouse against blues and browns, employing vibrant green in a street scene to calm potential chaos, and utilizing a red-orange roof for contrast against a seaside house's blue and green surroundings. Kilbee emphasizes that intentional framing and post-processing can enhance these color compositions to create striking fine art.
