Yellow is the official color of the sun, at least when we were children and want to draw one (sun). It is also the color of many types of flowers. In fact, it is a very dynamic color, mostly positive in many different human cultures. True that it has another significance by inducing danger warnings of all sorts, a kind of "beware" visual frequency. Today other fellow colors have become "beware" sign like the “fluo” ones, lime-green, orange, or red for more extreme contexts. Yellow won't suit to everybody taste especially for those who have a more "gothic" point of view.
In photography, yellow is a basic primary color in the subtractive color synthesis alongside with the cyan (sky blue) and magenta (red purple) and are represent by the CMY or CMYK (K for the black in the printing processing) logos. Combined with each other, they reproduce all the color variations we can observe in nature around us.
Yellow is symbolizing many different aspects of our everyday life but there is not a lot of people that will wear on a regular base, maybe because of its flashy apparency. Often use more as an accent color than a complete one, your eyes will be easily attracted by its presence even the more subtle one. In black and white photography, yellow will be represented by an almost white renderer and will create strong contrasts with other cold colors like the green for example. Finally, we can also take note about the multiple yellow tints that are part of your surroundings.
Yellow, a yelling color, may be for some but for others, a "bright" one!
