weekly photo challenge: red

This week’s photo challenge offered by Jenn at Traveling at Wits End is to photograph the color red.

Yesterday I woke to snow that was hiding a layer of ice. A few weeks ago I realized that one of the identifications of aging is when the presence of ice is less and less seen as an opportunity to enjoy the excitement of ice sledding and more and more of a “danger, danger” message.

So instead of undertaking a photo walk this weekend, I decided to take this time to wander about my photo library to find photos that have a “pop of red” to share this winterly weekend.
