CCP Photo Comp June 2022 - This month's comp is closed please refer to current month's theme

We love red - so much so we used it in our logo colours.

Red attracts the most attention and is associated with strong emotions such as love, passion and excitement. It's the universal colour to signify strength, power, courage, energy and danger.

We’d love to see how you see red.
