Red Over Canal/ Weekend Reflections

Bridge over canal in the Holland Marsh, East Gwillimbury, Ontario

Wasn't I lucky to have a red car drive over this bridge just as I snapped the shutter? Gotta love  synchronicity!

    Serendipity...and it can only happen when you have a camera with you. Terrific photos, EG!

    A typically dirty car in Canadian springtime. Nice reflection!

    No other color would have looked as good as red! I would have liked the shot without it, but once seeing the red car, that just completes it somehow or other...

    If that had been a gray car, it wouldn't have been as interesting. You were in the right place and the right time. Love the shot!

    Hi EG! Re your comment on Ocala DP: I dunno whether he's the "real" Easter bunny or just a helper. I asked for his birth certificate and he said it was in Hawaii with his Momma Bunny. Can you believe that? He's probably just an imposter bunny, born in Canada where his father was a plain ol' jackrabbit!

    The reflection of the red car goes well with the reflection of the red bush. This is a wonderful picture.

    Yes, you wherever lucky...and the red refection is the best. I just love it when I catch some nice color in my reflection shot. The car all by itself crossing the bridge is a neat image.

    Yes, you are absolutely right! No color is more suitable than red. Strongest accent. You had a pleasant spring day.
    Have a great weekend.
