Tuesday Photo Challenge: Focus
Posted on September 10, 2019
Frank’s theme this week is ‘Focus’. We’re all supposed to try and get our images pin-sharp, apparently, but sometimes a little judicious out-of-focus or bokeh seems to make the focus stand out even more.
The red (and I do mean red) tractor

This old tractor, seen at a nearby display of old agricultural machinery, has certainly been well driven and it’s undoubtedly colourful, so fits the brief for Cee’s Fun ‘Foto’ Challenge this week.

Posted on September 12, 2018
You could argue all night about what is the photographer’s greatest friend, but I’d have to say that a red foreground object must be among the frontrunners.
Imagine how dull this picture would be without that red railing.

Posted on September 27, 2017

Ladder
Posted on September 1, 2017
The theme for Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge this week is ‘Shadows’. This is the top of a ladder which allows sailors to step down into their boats from the jetty at Saint Andrews harbour, in Scotland. The low, bright sunlight casts strong shadows on and from the freshly painted metalwork – too red not to apply some selective colour to the image.

Early morning raindrops add interest to this bunch of bright red berries.

52 Weeks Photo Challenge: Week 6 – Red
Posted on September 12, 2016
Red features prominently in this image of a vintage car – although the red on the left side of the bodywork is actually a reflection of the car parked next to it, which was all red – but not very photogenic.
