The theme for July squares is ‘‘Simply Red‘ and the one rule is that your main photograph must be square. If colour is not your thing, then don’t worry why not play around with some red idioms such as;

  • A red rag to a bull – means provocation but for squares perhaps you could photograph a warning sign, or a moment of danger
  • As red as a beetroot – means embarrassed but for the content of your squares I am also thinking hot or excited
  • Paint the town red– means having a very good time but for squares I am thinking flamboyance!
  • Red herring – something that is deliberately misleading, so for squares I was thinking perhaps an illusion
  • Red letter day– is a memorable day or experience, so I know everyone will have at least one photograph that captures this. Today’s announcement square was definitely a red letter experience.
  • Roll out the red carpet – or why not give your blog the red carpet treatment in July by sharing your favourite images and perhaps a little bit of glamour

if you haven’t joined us yet this month, then why not dip yourself in red for the final seven days. The only must is to keep your photo square, and to pingback with #SimplyRed!

        1. What I haven’t mentioned is that they have arrived full of cold and the youngest is also teething. So as you can imagine tireder parents than usual and at times very grumpy youngsters!

        3. Surprisingly not – no sign of the parents though. They have long since gone to bed. Ask me again though on Sunday evening after they have gone!
