========================================
dpc, please accept my deepest apologies

when i came back from vacation and entered this challenge, i was absolutely sure that i had taken that photo on monday, not sunday, and i was thrilled at the thought of having taken an image that might fit a topic. it was through an absolute mental lapse that i overlooked the actual date. while i appreciate the votes, comments, and such, i feel terrible for them to have come at the expense of the other legitimate entries.

maybe this might have helped...

I like the over exposure really helps the red and the subtle shadow/reflection of the chair show up.
