May 2022 Monthly Challege, RED

Natalie, "fits the bill", Mark Greenhill would be proud of you.  He was a master at puns.
And Natalie, yes, I remember putting the zip lot back around the lens.  It really is a lot cheaper than a lens baby!  Though, I can afford a lens baby now but have no idea if they make them for my camera.  I am going to research that when I get a chance.  I feel the need to buy a new addition for my camera and think that something like that just might fill the bill. Grant mentioned that his his company has lenses for a Pentex and I think Pentex and Olympus's are interchangeable. Further research needed. 

I am not sure if pink is allowed but I sure do like how pink and orange look together.  Maybe I will use THOSE colors for my front yard flowers instead of Purple and red.

All awesome additions, the birds, flags, and flowers. Let's keep it going.

I thought of GRANT when I took this photo.  It was the first thing I shot when I was at the zoo.  My two photo friends that I was walking with looked at me strangely when I stopped to compose the shot and then they just keep walking.

Good one Don, I have painted that bird in Watercolor!

Steve, interesting!

Michael, now there is an eye catching sign!

Natalie,
I don't remember it but good job! I like it!
I would carry a ziplock bag just in case it rained to protect the lens. Gives a nice soft effect too!.
Fire house wall must be on the south side!

Lorell, funny! Yes, I have no doubt they raised an eyebrow or two!


Not a fire engine red but wanted to show it. This belongs to a colleague that worked for the same school system. Know him quite well. A 1930 Model A. He was on Main last night.

About time I posted something on FotoFriends. This is an image that I am sure that I must have posted on WC before. I called it "American Dream". Interestingly the original (being stored as a 16-bit ProPhoto RGB TIFF image) is seriously out of gamut for just about any monitor or printer!

Hi ya Peter. I have missed you and your crafty engineered uploads. This one looks like a piece of paper that you could cut out and bend at certain points and the end result is a model car. Looks like you had fun making it.

Rich, that's a snazzy looking car! Has your friend given you a ride in it?
Peter, whoa.....that makes me dizzy, trying to figure out which way is up! 90° clockwise! Those are some vibrant colors!!

Rich, I like how the engine is exposed on some of these old cars, especially since there is so much chrome inside of them. AND, it looks like simple mechanics, not like under the hood of today's cars. No chips in that one!

Wow Pete, a flashback to the psychedelic 60's! Nice!

Thanks Natalie. I don't think he gives rides.

Thanks Lorell, I do too! No driving on gravel roads!

Natalie, that is the perfect color when I think of RED.
Beautiful

I can't even figure out where to begin. These photos of "RED" are flat out amazing!!
The technique and eye this group has is really just amazing for the size we are.
