Newcastle Harbour

I am so busy at the moment that I think for the next few weeks I will be putting in a few fillers and not photos on the day they were taken.

I am trying to catch up with viewing your photos, but if I have missed you for any reason I am so sorry.

Thank you all so much for your comments on my recent photos too. I think I have replied to most, but if not I apologise again. Hopefully life here will settle down again soon.

This photo was taken at Newcastle harbour yesterday. It was starting to get pretty dull and grey and I think the red brightened up the image. We were expecting rain, but none came.

Today's topics photo - rust

Fillers? Not good enough babs

[dh (delena)]

I like that pop of red.

[Eve Pulsater]

Lovely steel grey water and that splash of red makes it work so nicely.

[Annie D]

the pop of red is wonderful - take care of yourself Babs don't go too fast

[sally agnew]

Well done to capture both the red buoy and red boat on such a grey day :-)

[Rachel]

It almost looks like selective colouring in red. Don't worry about putting up fillers.

[tony gig]

Wonderful shot of the waterway Babs.

[Peter_1966]

Nice SC

[Laurie F]

love it

[Molly]

This is a lovely composition. I know exactly what you mean about time pressure!

[Hazel]

Lovely pops of red!

[Peter]

At first sight I though it had the selective coloring treatment, but not the case, reds really stand out against the white and greys, great shot Babs;)

[Deb]

Those reds add so much to the shot Babs. The clouds are amazing with the line between clear skies and storms.

[Lee Potter]

Great shot, the sky looks more like the permanent sky in the Newcastle I live in lol.

[Pat Knowles]

That looks like a man standing on that buoy...he has two arms & a hat on! Take it easy if you are busy Babs & give yourself a break with the individual thanking....you are excellent at the commenting but it is so time consuming if you are having a busy time!

[Kathie]

Lovely shot. At first I thought it was sc but realized it was a grey day with super pops of red.

[Marnie]

Lots of interesting stuff to look at in this shot Babs.

[Debbie]

It does look like SC even tho its not - well done!

[April]

I like to two pops of red!

[Babs]

@happypat Thanks Pat. It does look a bit robotic doesn't. Wearing a fez too. I do try and catch up when I can, but so many things to do at the moment and I will be in hospital for day surgery next month too. so things to do before then as well.

@lpot1985 I remember your Newcastle and I agree. I know it is winter here, but it isn't grey every day and this day was still around 19 degrees C, but just threatening rain, which never came.

[Babs]

@terryliv Perish the thought Terry!

Thank you all so much. It does look like selective colouring doesn't it. That's what I liked about the photo. It made the red stand out. It was just a pretty grey day though. Still quite warm, but just a very low sky.

I don't know about not going too fast though Annie. I am rushing about so much at the moment I am nearly meeting myself coming back. ha ha.

[Brianna]

A gorgeous capture and Newcastle is one of my favourite places to go, it is always so beautiful there. A magnificent shot!

[Gena Pegg]

Love you composition here Babs....the pops of red are great!

[Babs]

@lilminimonka I love going to Newcastle too, so many different things to photograph there. Maybe I should do a monthly topic on Newcastle.

@eyesmile Thanks Gena. The red is just what was needed on a rather grey day.
