Rhapsody in Blue

Apr 12, 2024 | stevemccurry.blog | Steve McCurry

Why make so much of fragmentary blueIn here and there a bird, or butterfly,Or flower, or wearing-stone, or open eye,When heaven presents in sheets the solid hue?

Red has always been my color because red stands out. Red is one of the strongest colors, its blood, it has a power with the eye. That’s why traffic lights are red I guess, and stop signs as well… In fact, I use red in all of my paintings. – Keith HaringRed is the greatest clarifier – bright and revealing. I can’t imagine becoming bored with red – it would be like becoming bored with the person you love. – Diana VreelandRed is uplifting. – J. LewisRed protects itself. No color is as territorial.

You have to try to put your camera between the skin of a person and his shirt.
