About Chromatic minimalism

"Chromatic minimalism" here intends to be an alternative to the black and white aesthetics in photography.

It's about pictures that, though shot in colors, avoid the excess of chromatic information.

It's the pursuit of aesthetic effects through the contrast between two dominant colors. It's the “blue versus green”, the “brown versus lilac”, and so on, as options to the “black versus white”.

CM photographs would just not have the same impact if they were to be seen in B&W.

Photos here should:
- Have two dominant colors. Three is acceptable provided that one of them is either black or white.
- Have a contrast, a tension between the dominant colors.

Remember:
- B&W photos here are not considered CM photos.
- Computer enhanced photographs are accepted, but computer modifying their original colors to make them fit the CM features above mentioned is not.
- No pornography or nudity is acceptable here.
