Leaves and flowers both vie for attention with their shades of red.
Maybe the cheerful colour will take our mind off the frightening reality of today for a while.

My find for this week is my acceptance of the colour red.
I've never truly cared for reds, even though I had a pretty little red sports car once, in the so-called 'Leyland' red, named after the last british car manufacturers, now gone.
But seeing that half our garden is bathed in red, with vines doing a turn that must be seen to be believed, I tried to capture its essence.
However. none of my cameras are at ease with capturing the colour red the way my eyes see it.

ReplyDeleteI joke about getting a red car next time. I have white now and it is such a pain to keep clean.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I love the colours in the first photo.

Beautiful! I love red, all shades of it, but especially the warm autumn-y ones.
ReplyDeleteNICE! Red is particular beautiful in the autumn landscape because there are so many shades of red mingling with many shades of yellow, orange and green.
ReplyDeleteRed is a difficult colour to deal with and not only in photography... We "see red" when we are angry, red inflames the passions, it incites to violent acts and urges to action. But as you have found out, red can also stop us and make us contemplate - especially when mixed in with other autumnal tones...
