Wow! I can’t believe how many of you responded to the call for entries for RED! Thank you! It wasn’t easy narrowing it down, but I have chosen 15 images to share with you. Entries from women out-numbered those from men by an almost 3-1 ratio and that is reflected in the final selections. Entries were all submitted by email and were chosen by how they read digitally.
 
So without further ado, I present you RED!
