OMG I'm going to be seeing RED in my dreams tonight, after having viewed this image! :-)
What can I say, very red! Like it. Markjay

Alexeig, I was joking about the Gayle's hungover comment and blurry sales guy. :-) I perfectly understand why he is blurry and that is OK. No prob. -Cat

I feel sorry for the sales people in that shop. Being surrounded by red for 8 hours a day must be very painful. Very nice photo, like it a lot.

Well, this is 1/20s exposure ... Not enough to stop the movement

The salesguy looks a little blurred to me or could it be that I am looking at it after the hungover Gayle is talking about LOL :-) Cat

I like this photo very much! But gosh, you wouldn't want to visit this place when hungover, huh?

Alexeig,
If you consider the the sales man and the lady in red are discussing the "inside" of the smaller box, I would say that would make this picture on-topic. I don't see any thing wrong there. My only comment would be: It would help to crop out all un-necessary red from the picture so one can focus on the "smaller box". BTW I like the fact that you selected a lady in red in a surrounding where red is everywhere... its unique.

Don, many thanks for sincere appraisal. BUT, the lady on the picture is clearly here because she is interested in what is INSIDE this small red box which she is holding, isn't she? And she is selecting just this type of box maybe because she is not interested in what is INSIDE other, maybe larger boxes?
Just trying to interpret the topic a bit wider. Somehow I do not have pics for exhibition which display contents of boxes literally speaking.
CAT, what do you think about this my interpretation, is it on topic?
However, I realize that it fits even better the topic "Everything red" LOL

This strikes me as outside the box... the only box I'm inside is the room... and I fear we're going to be seeing a lot of room shots in this challenge. You're better than this... I know because I've seen and admired your work.

Oved, it may very well be too much, but ... it was not me who arranged all this red in the shop

Good shot, alexeig. But IMHO the red is just too much, but that is just me... \Oved
