52 Week Challenge- Split Tone

The 52 week challenge falls under the technical category this week with the assignment to process a shot in "splint tone". Split tone is an editing technique where the shadows are toned one color, and the highlights a second color. Split toning is often used with color grading in the media to give a scene a desired look and feel according to the instructions. I took this shot in the middle of our big storm this week and decided to give the shot a moody semi-dark feel by choosing a more monochromatic color scheme using two shades of purple.

I like your choice of colour and subject

[Debs Stott]

The subject works well for a split tone. I had completely forgotten about the 52-week challenge. You image prompted me to go and check out t his year's one, thank you.

[Janet B.]

Thank you for the explanation of split toning. I was never quite sure what it was before. Your subject works perfectly with this fun technique! FAV!

[Henri Russell]

Good job. I really did not understand split toning. Thanks for the explanation.

[Kathy]

I wasn't sure what split tone referred to. It was one of those things I needed to research. Thanks for the quick version.

[Pyrrhula]

Never hear of it to. But did once the opposite. https://365project.org/pyrrhula/365/2012-06-15
