Cool shots, Mr. Bill.

I can remember years ago playing around with PS 5.5 and gray-scaling a photo and then enhancing only the red.

Judging from your past picture posts I can tell. You have a keen eye for composition as well as any technical skills with a camera. Composition is at the true core (and art) of good photography

That's why I took the time to offer my suggestions on the girl with red lips. Cars and honeys go together.
