# Color Filter Image Gallery

> Color filter image gallery for React and Tailwind CSS (shadcn/ui): browse photos by color. It is built to make finding things feel like play: photos rest in black and white, and picking a color makes every matching photo bloom into full color, so a visitor thinking of something blue sees it in a second. Choose a swatch and the matching photos open in a circular bloom while the rest fade back; hover a photo and it blooms from where the pointer entered; click a photo to see everything in its color. Set each photo's color yourself or let it be detected from the image. Autoplay steps through the palette until someone picks a color, with keyboard support and a reduced-motion fallback. Use it for shop-by-color product grids, interior and fashion catalogs, portfolios and mood boards.
