Through the Bus Window in the Rain - OOPS! by 


While I don’t know if this photo can be considered art, I’ve always liked it for it’s oddness. We were on a tour bus in Nashville, Tennessee on a rainy day, and the raindrops were all over the bus windows. I saw this woman carrying packages and an umbrella, when suddenly a gust of wind blew the umbrella inside out. I thought I could get a clear shot of her, but instead I got all these reflections of the raindrops on the window. If you stretch your imagination, they could look like umbrellas, too!

Having lived most of my life in the northeast U.S., I am enjoying retired life in sunny Florida. I enjoy photographing many different kinds of things, but especially flowers and animals, including the beautiful birds found here in Florida. I am currently using a Canon EOS Rebel XSi/450D camera, a Canon 55-250 mm telescopic zoom lens, and a Sony P10 Cyber-shot digital camera. My newest acquisition is a Canon PowerShot SX260 HS, a point and shoot which I will be carrying in my purse.
