RGB Days on 591 - April 30 thru May 7

RGB is an additive color model in which red, green, and blue light are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad array of colors. The name of the model comes from the initials of the three additive primary colors, red, green, and blue.

The main purpose of the RGB color model is for the sensing, representation, and display of images in electronic systems, such as televisions and computers, though it has also been used in conventional photography. Before the electronic age, the RGB color model already had a solid theory behind it, based in human perception of colors.



Ok, that’s the technical definition. But what we’re talking about on 591 is COLOR! After all it is spring, and color is returning to the world after the blustery, grey days of winter.

Hans Hofmann said, “The whole world, as we experience it visually, comes to us through the mystic realm of color.” Claude Monet said color was his “obsession, his joy and his torment.”

No torment here but we would like to see your color photographs. Much of our photographic traditions and inspirations sprang from black and white. But there is a world of color out there that we want to celebrate!


So send your color photographs in to rhondaprince@gmail.com (or any of the other contact email addresses) and we will publish them on April 30 – May 7, the 591 RGB days.
