<div class="pull-left"><p> While scrolling through my feed I noticed a post from @melinda010100 promoting another Red Color contest in the Photo-essay community. Usually, when I see such type of contests, I quietly pass by, because they, huh, seem rather dull... but not this time. I made an exception cause haven't participated in a long while and miss it, a bit. Alas, the topic of photo contests on the Hive seems a little faded, especially compared to what it was 5 years ago (though not completely dried up... yet). Which is of course quite sad - because it is an honest indicator of activity. </p><p> I could easily fill the post with Fly Agaric photos - that was my very 1st idea where to go. But instead I looked in my recent folder and immediately found another entry. (You will see it at the end of the post). It is a cute little 2-cent stamp... and I could easily fill the rest of the blog with (various and interesting) stamps, but I found it boring. So instead, I opened my #streetphoto folder and looked at what I had... </p></div><div class="pull-right"><p> Просматривая свою ленту, я заметил пост от моего друга Мелинды, рекламирующий конкурс в сообществе фото-эссе. Как правило видя подобные конкурсы с цветом я тихо прохожу мимо, потому что они, ну, кажутся слишком простыми. А тут решил сделать исключение - давно не участвовал, соскучился... увы, тема фото-конкурсов на Улье кажется слегка увядшей, особенно по сравнению с тем что было 5 лет назад (хотя и не вовсе засохшей... пока еще). Что конечно довольно грустно - ибо это честный индикатор активности. </p><p> Так или иначе, я выбрал свою ячейку моментально (ее вы увидите в конце поста). Это маленькая симпатичная 2-центовая марка... и я легко мог бы заполнить (разными и интересными) марками остаток блога, но это показало мне скучным. Поэтому вместо того я открыл свою папку #streetphoto и посмотрел, что у меня имеется... </p></div> ---------  May 9 is the Victory Day - scene during the festive demonstration. All around was covered with loads of red, the folks carried flags and badges, I took a lot of photos of which I selected this one, with baby sitting on her Dad shoulders. I remembered that many many moons ago I acted the same... Charming! Below is uncropped version of the photo.  --------------------  Pizzeria counter. Nothing special except of required red color 🎈 but I enjoyed the colour contrasts and the angle. 😎 -------------  A vintage earring (not sure what gem it is, but nothing ultra rare/expensive). -------------  The cup of coffee late at January night.... was astonishing red! ------ Canada is the country of maples, right? and the maple leaves can be astonishing red... but it is not the right time to capture red maples. Actually, I wanted to round up my post with something different, and closed my #streetphoto folder for this.  King George V in vintage Canada stamp. Isnt it a beautiful work of art! By the way, did you know that the British ruling dynasty and the Russian Romanov family, including the last Russian emperor, are related? King George V looked very similar to Nicholas II, who was his cousin by mother's side. When I bought this stamp, my wife exclaimed in surprise: wow! what (emperor) Nicholas I is doing on a Canadian stamp? lol. <br> ###### <center>All images taken by me, copyright (c) @qwerrie</center> ###### <center>My posts at [worldmappin](https://worldmappin.com/@qwerrie)</center> ###### <center>Thanks for visiting my blog!</center>
