Red #1:This is a shot overlooking the town where we live in Spain. Note all the houses are virtually identical brick, but there is one house where the owners decided to be different.



Red #2: Red fall leaves, Latvia




Red #3: Precious child, Asia


Red #4: Here's a photo of our new red helicopter that we dedicated for God's use in Cameroon, Africa. You can see our reflection in the window.



Red #5: Peru


Red #6: Red dress; this is such a beautiful little girl that I teach in Sunday School and she often wears this red dress to church.



Red #7: Praying at kids' club


Red #8: I love the idea that life (the apples) seems to continue in spite of harsh conditions, Latvia.


Red #9: Niger

Red #10: Mali

Red #11: Bottle Brush tree, Paraguay. My toddler loves to pick these flowers up from the ground and touch them to his face.


Red #12: Italy



Red #13: Flovia. She is three-years-old, HIV+ and almost died of malnourishment last year. She is now thriving in an adoptive family.

Red #14: Working women, Congo

Red #15: When I first arrived in Tokyo I wouldn't have seen the beauty in this shot, now that I'm getting ready to move to another city in Japan, well, my perspective has changed.

Lots of beautiful photos! But why is there an English sign on the cherries if the photo was taken in Italy?
