Today, Eye See Red II

Red Canopy, Taco Boy Restaurant, Folly Beach, SC  © Doug Hickok
(Canon 5D Mark II camera, 24-105mm f/4L lens, at 105mm, 3.2 secs., f11, ISO 100, tripod)


There are certain hues that catch the eye no matter where you are.
 One of those hues is red.
The seam of a canvas canopy on a Folly Beach restaurant offered an opportunity for a simple color abstract, one which couldn't be ignored.


Quick take: What's it like to parachute off a mountain? Take a look at this 2 min. video and leap into your day with a thrill!

    A fine color, and the seam in the middle works well.
    The video is super!

    Folly Beach is already a promising name and this canvas is a work of art, at least through your eyes (or lens).

    a dazzling display of red, doug! (it's not my favorite color, but here it is very pleasing to the eye!)

    This is so Rothko-ish!
    Simple composition yet abstract idea.
    Folly Beach is indeed a great place to explore!

    The transparency of a canvas canopy makes for an exquisite show of light.
