It’s all red
It’s all red
The photo prompt from The Daily Post this week is Alphabet. I’ve been looking around for some naturally occurring letters, but nothing has stood out. So when I saw this sign at the swap meet the other day, I thought it was perfect. Especially since I was hungry.
This photo would also have worked for the Dogwood 52 week challenge, because the challenge there is Red (artistic).
But I wanted to try out the artistic part of this weeks challenge, so I took some different shots.
This first photo happened when I was taking sunset shots the other night. I looked towards the truck and the sunset was reflected so vividly in the tail light. I snapped a quick shot, did some fun editing stuff, and ended up with this.
The idea for this photo happened when I was walking yesterday. I’m so glad to be out of the rain and mud, and here were it’s dry. I thought my red rain boots (seemingly) discarded beside a cactus would tell that story pretty good.
This isn’t red, or an alphabet letter. But it is the reason I love the desert so much, a beautiful sunrise.
Yep, you guys are going to get slammed with sunrise, sunset shots again. I hope that’s ok. Lol
Sunrises and sunsets are awesome for me Mary!! LOVE them!! I also like the cactus and the rainboots! Bet you are glad to be back in your own stomping grounds!
I LOVE a sunrise, sunset, and it never, ever gets old! AND I love this prompt that is so specific and detailed. THOSE BOOTS, that is a fabulous shot, and the idea to look for ALPHABET is really a good exercise to look for DETAIL in unexpected places. Excellent share, Mary!
Slam away! Can’t wait to see more wonders of the world of the desert through your eyes!
(Love the red boots!) :)
the boots and the cactus look great together, that would make a great canvas print for my wall :o)
Oh wow, the sunrise shot is stunning! Happy Tuesday!
Super fun photo ideas for red. Love the boots by the cactus.
Loving the color!
That sunrise sure is gorgeous!
The sunrising scene is stunning! Beautiful red rain boots, Mary :)
Great idea with the tail light photo! Lots of things to see in its reflection.
The red boots look so cute in front of the cactus. My first glance I thought there was snow in desert. Your editing gives the photo a winter feel especially with the boots.
I love when people post sunrises since it is something I always miss:)
I really loved the boots with the cactus.
And I saw a lot of red in the sunset. After all, red skies at night, sailor’s delight (although probably not in the desert).
I have some naturally occurring letters spelling out our last name hanging on the boat. I suspect it takes a photographer quite a while to train her eye to spot those things. It’s like looking for sea glass. So many people miss it.
Your end of day photo is awesome, the red boots image is such fun.
Love them Mary!…:)JP
I love them all, but I think the red boots shot definitely says it all! Bring on the sunrise/sunset photos…we can take it! :)
We’ll never get tired of the sunrises and sunsets that you show us! That one is gorgeous.
