Poppies (of course :) )
Hardly did any editing because the danger with the red colours is you will be loosing details when you add light. I've got some other poppy shots in mind, hope I will find the time the next days.

From a sunny January walk in Bowmont Park, Calgary. A modest chinook brought a temperature of +4°C and I wandered down to the river with my Canon 30D camera and 28-105 f/3.5-4.5 II USM lens.

Red and green has always been the traditional Christmas colour scheme for me. I actually wanted to avoid it today, and look for the other two colour pairs, but then, cycling home from school, I saw this red post box in the middle of the green conifers. It looked such a bright sight in our otherwise brown spring surroundings that I just had to snap a picture of it. Nothing Christmasy in this warm, sunny afternoon picture - at least not for me.
