Red route

I saw a (probable) generation of ladies walking in front of me and I thought it was quite interesting.
I wonder how long the red roots have been running through their genes?

Red bike, green mist

I've seen this bike down in the basement of our building quite a few times now.
It's a relic of a past dream, to ride fast, to ride far and let's admit it...to look good.
When I see a Duke 748, 916, 996 or 998 (or a Honda VFR) I still feel lustful, but gone is the impulse.
I've had too many riding (pushbikes) and sports accidents and don't care for any more.

If only I had 9 lives...

Open for business

Although great B&W pictures can be stunning, I'm a sucker for colour.
Strong colours such as deep reds and blues are particularly appealing.
I'm not sure exactly why this is and I don't believe it has any deep, scientific meaning or subliminal messaging behind it (think MacDonald's red).
This one works for me because the stones are grey and the red seats really contrast against them, accented by the white tables.
