My camera seems to have become an extension of my amateur photographer eyes! All photos prior to 2007 are scanned and were taken with a Fuji camera.

Very rouge and very impressive. Excellent choice for the theme.

Re your comment on Ocala DP - the photo was taken during a rare lull in traffic...that area is usually jammed with cars going every which way!

Glorious reflection. I love the red trucks!

Don and Krise said...

Now that is a brilliant red. Very nice.

That sure is bright and glowing red. I've wanted to visit that canal. Now I can see some of it . . . twice with the reflection.

I remember the place, but I didn't get a so nice reflection.

It is no wonder that red is associated with fir stations and cars - very vivid.

Whoa, fabulous reflection and rich color! Where I live the fire stations and vehicles are chartreuse colored. :D

What a beautiful picture. I love that red.

Great reflections of the bright red colors. I would never have guessed that this was Paris. The building reminds me of the U.S.

Matty said...

I love the brilliant reds.

Unknown said...

Wow. These were my two favorite pictures so far. Amazing. Spectacular images. I am so thankful for firemen! They have such dangerous jobs!

The framing on the first photo is nice, the reflection and "red" really stand out!

Nothing makes a photo pop better that red...and add a reflection and you have perfection!

Lovely reflection shot. Having the water so close to the station is handy for filling the fire trucks.

Julie said...

What gorgeous splodges of red. I love Canal Saint Martin and had a ride along its entirety duriing my last visit.

Michael said...

I was thinking also that the water was handy there. Don't want HQ burning down. Nice pics. Love the reds.

Great reds and fantastic reflection on the top shot!
