Rainy days

A lone figure makes his way home from work through the park in the pouring rain. Do you ever wonder what peoples lives are like as you watch them…. does he have a wife and children waiting for him ….or does he go home to an empty house and live alone….who knows.

‘Rainy days’ was taken with a Canon EOS 500D and 250mm lens

    Love the clarity of the glistening umbrella and all around the blur of the wet. Very painterly but not a painting. One could also say very photographic but not purely a photograph. It’s right there in between where I like it most.

    When i see a picture like this i come to the obvious conclusion – Taking photos is not for anyone ( that´s just for people like you ) and of course, that isn´t done with a cybershot cam !

    Lyn I don’t remember seeing this one before … it is truly beautiful … but more than that … very thought provoking. Even without reading your words, those would have been my thoughts as well. This is one of my favorites of yours … and you know how much I admire your work … that’s saying a lot.
