137. Fooling around with the JPEG

Taking liberties with Gaudi's stained glass window
This is a section taken from a picture of a stained glass window.  The image has been cloned, rotated and joined for the kaleidoscope effect.

122. Rednesday

Minimalist decoration in a jeweller's window
Red is the lucky colour for Chinese New Year.  Here are a couple of shop windows decorated with good luck red symbols.
Shop selling  "intelligent" toilets - despite the red decorations, a celebratory, festive feeling is quite lacking

These are chocolates, not fire-crackers

100. Rednesday

Beautiful  Japanese wrapping paper
Japanese packaging and wrapping paper are art objects.

In fact, I find the package more appealing than the contents. I gaze at the package and don't want to open it as I'm afraid to ruin the beautiful wrapping.

I can't bear to throw the boxes and paper away.  I don't remember what was wrapped in this paper but I have kept the paper for many years.

Do you save wrapping paper, shopping bags, ribbons, etc.?

058. Red in my kitchen

Nothing cheers up a kitchen as red does.  Don't you agree?
I always buy red things for the kitchen.
Happy Rednesday!
