Umbrellas Of Verona
I just love the muted but colorful tones on this shot taken through a wet bus window. Hope you like it too.
This reminded me of a Renoir painting, The Umbrellas

So cool! Love the raindrop effect- really drives home the feeling of a rainshower- and the swirling colours of the umbies is pure magic!!

Different Al. But yet brings out the fun of being a kid again. Dancing in the rain comes to mind. Excellent.

Brilliant capture! Excellent composition! The subdued colors are magnificent!
This reminds me of a Quebec artist by the name of Theberge. He uses umbrellas and raindrops a lot in his images!
