Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is the color RED. These red items are mostly from my travels. Excerpts from my color essay on red are included.
Red says, “Look at me!” And we do because red stands out.
Many flowers are red – tulips, roses, dahlias and many others can be red – maybe these beautiful flowers are why some people choose red as their favorite color.

Some very delicious fruits are red – tart apples, succulent raspberries and yummy strawberries. Red tomatoes and red peppers are good and juicy too. But watch out! Red peppers can be HOT.

Speaking of hearts, we normally think of hearts as red. We give each other cards on Valentine’s Day with red or pink hearts.
