The discussion revolves around a photo contest themed around the color red, where participants must submit a digital photo featuring red as the prominent color. Key rules include accepting only one submission per member, requiring photos to be resized to specific dimensions, and prohibiting extensive editing beyond brightness and contrast adjustments. Participants share their entries and engage in light-hearted banter about the photos, including comments on depth of field and color perception. There are mentions of personal anecdotes related to the photos, such as a participant's grandson helping select a photo of a toy car. The conversation also touches on the challenge of voting due to the variety of shades presented, with some members humorously questioning the color accuracy of certain submissions. The deadline for submissions is emphasized, urging members not to miss it. Overall, the thread showcases creativity, community interaction, and a shared appreciation for photography.

I think I'll post my little tomatoes.

Shiny, red, and sparkly, this one is dedicated to Kurdt. :-p

Tomatoes dedicated to me, how lovely! :!):blushing:

Not sure how it is being displayed on everyone else's screen, but this picture looks more orange'ish to me than red.

Ok. I don't seem to be able to edit my post, so you'll have to remove it for me.

Unless you have a different picture to submit, we can leave it as it is and let the voting members decide if it is "red" or "orange".

The voting is going to be tough, indeed. Not just because of of the great photos, but seeing red for so long, it will take your eyes some time to adjust to normal. :bugeye:

One more flower. Our Hibiscus were way late this year, and small to boot. This guy is only about 7" across. I got a tomato shot also, looks TOO much like Evo's, yes they are sweet!

You have less than 2 days left to submit a photo for this contest. Don't miss the deadline or you'll be seeing red.

It looks like a toy car to me the way the photo was taken.

Just to clarify, I certainly wasn't trying to fool anyone with the picture of the die cast scale model of a 1937 Buick coupe. I even included model in the photo I.D http://img394.imageshack.us/img394/3331/1000703jpg modelzr0.jpg

My seven year old grandson was with me last weekend. I asked him to find something red that I could take a picture of. He looked at the shelf and grabbed the model.

I took about 12 pictures and let him decide which one to post. LOL at that point I was locked into posting it because the little twerp knows how to bring up the forum and look at the Pictures. :smile:
