Do others see this flower as brown, then when you click on it it's red? Odd!
It's the one by bennysplace. BTW, it absolutely gorgeous, red or brown either way it is!!!

Well I've never seen anything like this before.

The image was made in Photoshop and has a "color profile", something I've never seen before. When my own software on the server here resized it down, the color profile apparently was lost and that's why it's brown.

I have no idea what causes this and will have to do some extensive research to figure it out.

Well...I figured it was a glitch in the thumbnail system somehow. But it just reminds me how it would be nice to find flowers in colors that just are not going to happen.
