Tom, it's a good question, ...Thanks, everybody. Tom, it's a good question, it's hardly a noticeable effect. What I mean by color corona is the halation or flare that lightens a dark area adjacent to a really bright source, such as the bright light reflecting off the water beyond the boat. I tried to paint the edge of the boat a little lighter as it approached those bright areas. Perhaps I should have called it by the other term "light spill" that I used in a recent post. <br /><br />Amuma, that's a real problem, and these bright reflections were nearly at the pain threshold. Looking directly toward a setting sun could damage a person's eyes, so you have to be careful. I don't know if there really is a solution, other than to pick days that are hazy enough to cut way down on the intensity of the sun, or to wear welding googles or something.<br /><br />Thanks, everyone else for your kind words.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-74888631074107296332012-06-12T07:20:41.318-04:002012-06-12T07:20:41.318-04:00This is just stunning :3This is just stunning :3Lee Jerretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05086492356538051129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-87896748396439165482012-06-11T15:31:33.402-04:002012-06-11T15:31:33.402-04:00When painting facing directly towards the sun, how...When painting facing directly towards the sun, how do you avoid being blinded by it? I always find that every time i attempt it im squinting and colors on canvas and real life look a lot different and its hard to tell if the relationships are right. <br />How do you solve this mystery?Amuna Laimahttp://www.amunalaima.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-39571361185085270822012-06-11T14:05:22.694-04:002012-06-11T14:05:22.694-04:00I feel like I'm being thick on the issue of th...I feel like I'm being thick on the issue of the color corona - or maybe my nautical terms aren't up to snuff. But I'm having a hard time identifying the areas you refer to as corona. What I think of as the hull is on the side away from the sun. But I thought color corona was an effect of strong direct light influencing the color of an object. Can you straighten me out on what I'm misunderstanding?
