The red bus

Red buses & red post boxes in London!

Three good things:
1. An afternoon in the garden planting up all the tubs with pale pink geraniums. I am determined to gave a good show this year after last years non event.
2. Three new hens.
3. The Eurovision Sing Concert, I wonder if we have any chance this year after Brexit?
Great shot with the tan frame of the street and the red centerpiece! Really great! Fav

Such a contrast with the pop of red !, really makes for a wonderful street shot ! Sounds as if your tubs will be wonderful Pat I looked for bedding geraniums the other day but couldn't find any but individual potted ( far too ;expensive !! ) I am sire you will have a wonderful show -- geraniums are so tolerant of all weathers !

@beryl Yes individual ones are so expensive Beryl. I managed to get three trays of eighteen & I bought five trailing ones too.

@quietpurplehaze Thanks Hazel, had to lighten it quite a bit, it was a grey murky day in London last week.

@brennieb I live London Brenda, my ideal would be to have a week on my own down there & I could wander around, go to art galleries, markets etc etc!

@julzmaioro Thanks Julz, have you ever been to London?

@carolmw Thank you Carol, pleased you like it enough to fave.

@dawnee Thank you very much.

Red seems to be the dominant colour in this picture - everything else is building colour. Its a very narrow street too! Good to be able to wander along the streets and not pass in too much of a hurry!

@maggiemae it was a bit of a dead loss actually maggie as it was cold, everything was shut as it was in the city part of London so no office workers to shop so they shut. Only redeemed by visiting the Borough Market next. We were a bit lost here.

Lovely shot. I really must have a trip to London one of these years. All the visits to family around the world don't leave time to revisit favourites here....like London and our favourite B&B 😃😃

Husband and I visited London many, many years ago. I remember that we took a lot of pictures of the busses and the mail boxes.

I really like this image - a real sense of London's buildings and the red buses. The people balance it nicely.
May 14th, 2017  
Lovely POV and great red splodges against the buildings.
