ERNST HAAS : Using color creatively
Austrian - born Ernst Haas is famous for his highly imaginative and evocative use of color , in particular for the way he uses color as an important visual element in itself - even , in some pictures , as the main subject interest . His supreme talent lies in conveying the essence of a scene by an impressionistic rendering of its light and color . Haas once defined photography as " a transformation , not a reproduction " . Where other photo- graphers may strive to reproduce the details and tones of a subject as realistically as possible , Haas produces more inter- pretive images in which he captures the atmosphere and mood of a scene .
His early color work was shot on Koda- chrome 1 , an extremely slow ( 12 ASA ) 35 mm film . The color characteristics of this film , combined with the slow shutter speeds it necessitated , greatly influenced his approach . He learned to control and exploit the effects of blurred color and line that were produced with moving subjects .
Haas achieves his blurred impressionistic effects in several ways . Sometimes the swirl- ing movement results from using a long exposure on a moving subject with the camera held still . In other shots he deliber- ately pans or jiggles the camera , mixing the colors of his subject with those of the background . His images are blurred so skil- fully that the subject remains recognizable and the colors are spread without turning muddy . Haas works with a direct vision camera , as unlike a single lens reflex its viewfinder enables him to continue to follow the action during exposure .
Haas is a highly versatile photographer . In his pictures of the outdoors - wild open country and pastoral scenes as well as cities as diverse as Venice and New York - he switches from one style to another accord- ing to his subject . He can communicate the excitement of a bullfight in swirls of vibrant color or the serenity of an autumn land- scape in dreamlike images and muted colors . But in all his work , color itself is his main creative concern . He often uses the effects of mist , rain , or other weather conditions to diffuse his colors , sometimes waiting days or weeks to obtain the right quality and direction of light for the effect he wants . Some of his more recent pictures , notably his close - ups of peeling paint or discarded junk , approach the abstract in their use of pure color and bold design .
Untitled , 1964
The picture , below , uses a single overall color scheme to express serenity and warmth . Haas took the picture when the trees were caught by soft , diffused lighting from the late afternoon sun . The warm light emphasizes the golden colors . linking the complex pattern of foliage into a single , harmonious color scheme .
Winter fantasy , 1966
The picture , left , again uses a single color scheme to convey a dominant mood - the cold atmosphere of winter . Haas carefully chose the exposure to create contrast between the dark , linear patterns of the branches in the foreground and the delicate , misty background .
Calf roper , 1958
Haas panned the camera in the direction of the movement during a long exposure in the picture , right . Blurring the subject and colors conveys a feeling of motion and excitement more effectively than a " frozen " picture would have done .
Sailboats , 1958
The picture below , like the one above , uses an impressionistic effect to convey movement . Haas took the photograph from a boat using a hand - held camera and a long exposure . The motion of the camera and the subject produced the multiple images in the picture . Notice how the exposure chosen for the contrasty back lighting has created brilliant highlights in the foreground , which counterbalance the darker , angular shapes of the boats .
