My friend, Danny Clark, issued me a challenge the other day.  I was scheduled to shoot a party and on my way there we were talking and he gave me this assignment...take 5 pictures where the predominant color is a shade of red.  So, I got close!  I have 4.  It was pretty easy actually because the wallpaper was pink and the rug was red.  I punched the color on these and worked with some overlays to make them even more red.

The one below is kind of a cheat.  The pink is all part of an overlay and not in the original shot.  I just liked it so I had to make it fit into my assignment.

Danny, thanks for the assignment!  For all of you out there practicing with your cameras, assignments are a great to way to learn and challenge yourself.  If you are looking for an assignment, why not try one of my Monday Lessons?  I think a good starter would the lesson on expressions.
