Sunday Challenge 28 - Bright and bold. Any subject, with bright colour/s as at least 50% of the photo. Can be abstract, or flowers, clothing, jewellery ... might need to be macro to achieve 50% in the colour/s selected. One primary colour, or more, whatever works for you. Using sections of recent photos for red (7Jan) and blue (9 Jan), see PiP. Archive photos for white (2015) and yellow (2021). On a roll with the style of Mondrian :-) Much easier to do using squares rather than rectangles.

Dora's umbrella

She can never resist checking out the photo props :-) It has actually been raining overnight. National Umbrella Day We can credit the Chinese for being the first to protect us from the rain. Their paper parasols received a layer of wax followed by lacquer that made the umbrella withstand the elements. One of the first umbrella shops in existence opened in 1830 at 53 New Oxford Street in London, England. The shop, operated by James Smith and Sons, still operates regular hours at the same location today. In 1928, Hans Haupt’s pocket umbrellas appeared. In 1969, Bradford E. Phillips, the owner of Totes Incorporated of Loveland, Ohio, obtained a patent for the first “working folding umbrella.” nationaldaycalendar.com/national-umbrella-day-february-10/
