Red London Buses
Double-decker buses were popularized in Great Britain at the start of the 20th century and today the best-known example is the red London bus, namely the AEC Routemaster. By the mid-1920s there were about 20 different companies with buses driving all over the city. The largest of these businesses, The London General Omnibus Company (LGOC), sought to differentiate from their competition and painted their buses bright red.
While the building in this photo has a traditional design, the red bus strikingly adds color to the image.

Monochrome Images
Switching our posts for the next two weeks from color to monochrome.
Monochrome photography is an artistic type of photography that uses tones of a single color to colorize a photograph. Instead of having colors from all over the spectrum, a monochrome photo has just one color scale. All black and white images are monochrome images, but not all monochrome images are black and white.
Here is an image captured from Glacier Point in Yosemite National Park in California, that is converted from color to monochrome making it balanced and visually appealing.
