Red Photo Contest
Take one picture of something red. No poinsettias!
You have until Sunday, December 5, 11:59:59pm to post your pic. The winner gets to look down his/her nose at the rest of us in a haughty manner. In the event of a tie, the winner will be selected based on shoe size. Go. |
no,no no, nose length!
|
Big nose and small feet, huh?
|
haha I'm laugh'n. I think you might be right. I have my grandmother's Cherokee nose. It probably not prominent enough to break a tie though.
|
If I'm going to win, I'd better start lying, pronto.
|
:lol2:
|
I'll be entering. Coincidentally my photo may end up being my nose.
I am coming down with a stupid stinking stinky stupid cold. |
Amusing. A photo contest, in a photo thread, with no photos.
It's like that painting. |
Or that movie made with no film in the camera. Which I saw, by the way. It was ok, but the last 20 minutes were predictable.
|
Please! no spoilers.
|
Maybe I'll take a photo of my wall.
Or the book I just red. |
I win. Fuck all o' ya.
|
Bunch o' damn poinsettia lovers...
|
I'm working on it.
|
Maybe there's just too much red out there to choose.
I would but gave my camera to my mother. I don't have a data cable for my phone, yet I could try, but you guys have better cameras...so*sigh* *drumming fingers on the desktop waiting for red* |
My camera is red.
|
I just now found this thread, my face is red! :blush:

That is a nice picture.
Sometimes you need to stop and thaw the roses! |
Not submissions, just red, for the heck of it.

Funky ole lampshade my mother gave me. It's not her style AT ALL. It is in my bedroom where people can't see it. It makes a great night time lamp.
Cute little plate. Not much for photo quality. These are taken with my cell phone. I had to send the photos to my email then download them. I need a data cable. Are data cables universal? I wonder. |

Oh hey check it, I actually have a photo that meets the criteria, for once:
|
Does the three bite red dessert have a name? Looks good.
|
It's a coconut milk custard with strawberry sauce. Recipe is at the link in my signature. :)
|
Thank you.
Great site. I can't wait to make THAT one, in particular. Coconut milk is so healthy. I have a carton in my fridge. Now I know what do do with it. |
What do you mean by "healthy"?
|
Well, outside of a Pina Colada, it has many health benefits. Fatty acids are one example.
|
It also contains caprylic acid, which is a potent antimicrobial.
|
So is cinnamaldehyde, which is why it's used in gum.
|
So is Everclear which is why it's used in, umm, drinks.
|
And for cleaning copy machines.
|
Copy machines! That's what I meant!
|
I was completely driven to take some pics of suction canisters and sponges soaked in blood from a C-Section last night for this contest but I resisted. Carry on.

It's blooming for Christmas!
and so is my African violet. It would be an ugly plant if it wasn't so perfect. |

Did not make it for Christmas... planted on Halloween
It would be a perfect plant if it wasn't so ugly ! |
:p:

Merry Christmas, Sky.
The Christmas Cactus is quite special in our family. It started with a cutting (?) from my grandmother in Tennessee, went with my Mom to California for a generation, then to my wife while we were in Texas. It's now divided among our 3 daughters, and still blooming at Christmas time. So, not making fun, yours is perfect and a great remembrance for me. |
@ foot.....which half? half a foot?
Thanks Lamp. Merry Christmas to you! and thank you. It needs re-potted. When is a good time? I've let it go for so long, I am afraid of killing it but by what you said, they are very hardy plants. |

You can tell I've entered boredom-land as I set about posting pictures of a growing plant.
Xmas+12, and after a top-heavy tumble to the floor, Amaryllis now has 4 blossoms + sprouts. Unfortunately, her tumble may have damaged the stalk because the two new blossoms don't look all that healthy. Who knows how far she will grow, and how far I can sink in this "...artificially peach-and-vanilla scented swamp of regurgitate-reminiscent slime that currently passes for banter in here" |
my parents had one of those, and it actually bloomed on Christmas day itself. Pretty impressive.
|
I won't show a picture of the sad state of our pet amaryllis.
It ended up with 4 blossoms. But either the tumble to the floor or it's natural life cycle has ended it's fashion show. Does anyone know about the care and feeding of an amaryllis after it's blooming cycle ? We'd like to try to keep it going, but maybe it is just a one-off event. |
