Teal (and Orange) - _TNY_0158

Teal and orange are complimentary colours - they are each others opposites and thus have the maximum contrast in between them. Since skin tones fit in the orange spectrum and blue skies are near the teal, the "teal and orange" look is very popular in film grading, in photos and also movie posters.

 

Here is nature's own version - the beautiful demoiselle (Calopteryx virgo)

 

The metallic teal one here is a male and the females instead rock an equally metallic orange. From the same day

at Åva-Stensjödal in the Tyresta National Park, here is a female showing her (just as pretty) colours: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/53215905983/
