One of the most beautiful effect of impressionistic photo art is the “halo“. This is a brighter background over a small area that tends to back light the subject in front. I have found that a macro photo gives the best situation to create and emphasize such a “halo” effect.
The Impressionistic Halo effect on a California wild flower.
As again with the art, there are many ways of creating such a halo. Theone that I love to do is on Fuji Velvia 50. The saturation, as you can see above, is high and the contrast is tremendous. The higher the contrast, the better the impact, however, you would need to limit the contrast so that not to render a large portion dark.
