Red Alert!
Happy Saturday! Welcome to my blog.
The color for the colors of life contest this week is red, so i'm going to color your world with red. Hehehe.
But before I start, permit me to ask "what the color red means to you."
To me, red means life. When blood is lacking in one's body, the person has a slim chance of survival if nothing is done about it.
Away from that, red color always shines through wherever it's found. A vibrant and dynamic color that can evoke strong emotions and reactions, is red color.
Red can mean different things to different people. It can represent passion and energy, love and romance, danger, good luck and prosperity, life etc.
In the agricultural world, some fruits and vegetables like strawberries, bush cherry, pawpaw, watermelon, tomatoes, pepper, etc. crops can only be said to be ripe when they turn red. The color change of these crops indicate sweetness, flavor and readiness for consumption.
I captured this image at one of the popular markets in my city, Aba called Ahịa Ọhụrụ (New Market). I often pass by these women each day I visit the market.
As an attention-grabbing and bold color, red is often used for emphasis or to draw attention.
No wonder Christie de Burgh couldn't resist the charm and aura of the "Lady In Red". Lol.
In the culinary world, red color plays a significant role in the visual appeal and taste of various dishes.
Who would resist a taste of this ice cream. Not me either.. "A cup of ice cream a day takes the heat away" 🤣🤣
Eat or pass? 😂
Hmmm, Strawberries. Crunchy freezed strawberries in parfait taste heavenly. 😋
Although red isn't my favorite color, I often admire outfits, crafts or artworks that incorporate shades of red, as they can add a striking touch to an overall look.

Give it up for the Reds! ✌️

Nice outfit and it makes you look taller..😊
Your interpretation of the color red is interesting, and I agree with what was mentioned. For me, when someone is wearing red, it feels like she/he has a strong or commanding presence; like your eyes are really drawn towards that person, all the more so if the person is a good conversationalist.
Awwnnn, thank you. 🥰
I'm glad you could relate with my submission about the color red.
You're right. Red isn't a color that would go unnoticed. It always stands out.

We live in a colorful world and red is mentioned in the three primary colors. You look gorgeous on that red outfit on the fourth photo. Best wishes.
Indeed. The world wouldn't have been so beautiful without these colors.
Thank you.
Now I'm confused on which photo to choose for the contest. 🤣

I love the picture of the market women with their tomatoes and pepper, so healthy and fresh. You did justice to the theme: red.
Thank you. I love that particular picture the most, and it was one of those sneaky shots I took, hehehe. Didn't know it was going to be this captivating.
