Harvest of yellows

Assignment: Analogous colors

 

I found this assignment difficult. The concept of analogous colors isn't so hard - it is two or more colors that are adjacent on the color wheel. However, there is a stricter definition that it be one primary (red, blue, yellow) and two tertiary colors. So for example, if the primary is yellow, the tertiary colors would be yellow-orange and yellow-green. I found very few examples of the primary and two tertiary combinations! In fact, this is the only one in which I achieved it (photo in comments). In the main photo here, the primary is yellow. The tertiary yellow-orange and yellow-green are also present. However, this image also contains green and orange.

 

For the gardeners, the yellow-green squash is Striata d'Italia, the dark green is Black Zucchini, the yellow is Zephyr (!), the tomatoes are Sun Sugar, Galina's Yellow, and Super Sweet 100.
