Why is red such a pretty colour?

This is the 50mm lens.
I'd complained about the quality of the scans before. Now, though, after having not seen the transparencies with a lightbox in a while, this image isn't so bad. I was all set to sharpen, reduce noise, and all that crap in Photoshop. No, I said to my self, correct the levels, and walk away.
No, it could be a better image. I don't have the time to make it beautiful.
Do we really care what it's about, where it's from? It's pretty. The colours work with this site. I like this photo. Reason enough.
What are the hands doing in this photograph?

Martin!
The only way to repay you for posting up these gorgeous pictures are these comments.
Your site is growing...and I think it's these pictures that are adding so much meaning to it. The last photo, was so hypnotically beautiful. I spent a whole day at a temple in Penang taking photos and could not get a shot with quite as much substance as that one. Kudos.
I think you work well with red. Out of the last 5 photos posted, I liked 1,2 and 5 the most. Just realized that they all speak redness. Different languages and subtleties of redness, but redness as the key colour nonetheless....
I forgive u for not visiting bubblog. The layout is frustrating me. I think I might just go simple again. Unless I'm really bored one day...
You could give me money.
