Blue, by it’s meaning, it’s an important color in art, and therefore in photography. Anyway, it’s present all over: sky, water… (we live on the Blue Planet, right?). If you use a polarization filter, light blue turns into dark blue.
Note: the filter effect is greater if the angle between the sun light and the direction of the photographer is 40 to 60 degrees.
The blue tone of the evening creates a mystical atmosphere. That for the natural blue. But artificial blue goes to architecture and technical objects.
Truth blue you create the illusion of perspective (human brain identifies objects with fuzzy colors as being farther). If we can say that an image done only in blue tones gives a feeling of calm and peace, if you also use a complementary color (red, orange, yellow), the red spots tend to appear closer than the blue-green background.
Tip: A red filter in front of the flash will highlight a tone in a blue illuminated environment.
