Rainbows
After I made my plans to photograph my friend Heather with the red umbrella (yesterday's post), the rainy Saturday I've mentioned before arrived and umbrella's were suddenly everywhere. I pulled into a restaurant parking lot to pop out for some take-out lunch but as often happens, I was engrossed in a story on the radio so I sat there for a while before making a dash for the restaurant. Suddenly I spotted this young girl with her rainbow umbrella and her rainbow socks. I jumped out of the car with my camera in hand so I could catch the scene. As you can see, the rain was coming down at a good pace so I jumped right back in the car before I and my camera got drenched. It's not the best photo but, I think the combination of umbrella and socks is just irresistible.
Irresistible indeed!
ReplyDeleteAnd most photographers know the feeling of a picture they did not take for a reason or another... it is still in their mind at this day. :-)
You had to do it Sharon, this combination of colours and patterns is just begging to be captured!
ReplyDeleteI think she must be wear all the colours of the spectrum.
ReplyDeleteThe stockings have the same colors as the umbrella, cool !!
ReplyDeleteCool! It reminds me of a series of shots a friend of mine took in Tokyo.
ReplyDeleteSocky, sox.
ReplyDeleteA blast of multiple colour on a very grey day!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! She isn't shy when it comes to color.
ReplyDeleteGood job and quick thinking! You got it perfectly. Fun and funky!
ReplyDeleteOh, I totally agree. Even her skirt and jacket add to the picture! Even though nothing matches I think it's a wonderful combination.
ReplyDeleteThis woman is into colour!
ReplyDeleteThat little girl is just as cute as she could be, Sharon!
ReplyDeleteWhat a colorful young lady.
ReplyDeleteGreat pic, such a fun idea to make it all better :-)
ReplyDeleteShe is a colorful young woman and quite a bright subject to photograph!
