Selective Color (sos)

“Lest we forget” – three very simple, yet also very powerful words. First used in an 1897 poem written by Rudyard Kipling called “Recessional”, to mark Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee, they caution us to be careful not to forget.

As we take a moment this Armistice Day to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our peace, prosperity and stability, and those who fight today to protect us still, let us also hope that conflicts around the world will come to a swift conclusion, not least of all in Ukraine and in Gaza. One human hand it very powerful. It can be raised in anger and inflict pain, or it can be raised in peace and bring comfort and joy. Lest we forget.

Armistice Day or Remembrance Day is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth member states since the end of the First World War to honour armed forces members who have died in the line of duty. It falls on the 11th of November every year. Remembrance Day is marked at eleven o’clock (the time that the armistice was declared) with a minute’s silence to honour the fallen. Following a tradition inaugurated by King George V in 1919, the day is also marked by war remembrances in many non-Commonwealth countries.

Flori & SQL do a great balancing act! We had such fun doing this, I tried with dog treats, but they just wanted to eat them. The pansy is balancing, it's not fixed or photoshopped on - HSoS!

Another effort at Selective Colour, this time on a pile of cherry tomatoes. The editing takes a while, but the results are worth it.

The most famous graffitist in the history of the world has not visited this place. But given he's anonymous I can't be certain of that. In any case it is nice to see a little colour in such a place.

Smile On Saturday-Selective Colour

I love the selective colour feature on my Nikon-P1000. It is so easy to operate! Little Chippie was good enough to pose for me. In reality he figures if he stays still I can't see him...silly little Chipmunk

Back to the new Watermark building in Southampton. I thought this image would be suitable to wish all my Chinese friends and contacts a Happy New Year. I think these lanterns are just a decoration, put there in an effort to connect the two parts of Westquay shopping centre, but they do look a little Chinese to me.

Last evening we went there to see what it would look like in the dark, more images to follow.

(surprisingly my camera doesn't have a selective colour feature so I can only try to eliminate/minimise other colours)

Saw this on my way to work one day, brought my camera the next day...luckily it was still there ;)

I've been saving this one for ages....just for this weeks theme !!

(no, it's not snowing here today...this was taken In the winter) though I wouldn't put it past Mother Nature ! lol

A bit of selective colour in this monochrome. As passé as selective colour may be, I think it's the right thing here.
