color color everywhere

I recently came across the blog of photographer Sarah Underhill. As I scrolled down her blog I was at first envious of all the places she’s been and then as I spent more time looking over her work I was struck by her unique vision and sense of color. I think some of her best work is from her Morocco series. I’ve seen other photos from Morocco in the past and have always wanted to visit because the colors there seem so intense and harmonious. Sarah’s work does justice to Morocco’s color palette. Based on the photos on her blog it looks like she’s been working in Asia, Mexico and India just to name a few. She clearly knows how to work in a variety of cultural environments.

She also has some great color abstracts on her flickr gallery. I could go on and on about her color work but it’s best to take a look at yourself, with every picture I wanted to see another.

It looks like she’s been doing a lot of work with the Army recently. It’s too bad such an eye for color is wasted on so much olive drab.
