Wet Wednesday by judithg

Wet Wednesday

I've chosen this title partly to remind me what day we're on - with the study leave/exams I'm pretty confused. Thanks so much for the response to my cow in the cow parsley. The herd was blocking the path and I ummed and aahhed about going through the field with the dog even though I really wanted a cow-cow parsley combo (it's the problem with choosing your title before you've got the shot!) However, the cows that are stationed around town are a docile breed and I found I could divert off the path and put a good stretch of cow parsley between canine and bovine. I had loads of stuff to do today (some of which couldn't start until Adam was safely on the bus to his exam) so it was a bit later than usual when Monty and I hit our walk and, bingo, the Heavens opened again. Luckily it didn't last long but there were a lot of wry looks passing between dog walkers in our winter coats...
Three good things:
1. An exam (English Language) with a bizarre marking scheme so it's impossible to declare it a disaster at this stage - hurrah! (And it didn't throw any complete surprises :0) )
2. Progress with Rachel's bedroom (but I've just realised I've forgotten to buy skirting board - drat!)
3. Book Club later - be nice to get out and everybody else's kids are too old for GCSEs so we can put some other part of the world to rights...
You've captured the rain amazingly and I love the sepia tones

It's a very current and universal shot in England right now I think! Like the sepia. Enjoy the book club!

That's quite a downpour and you captured it and the mood perfectly.

@fueast Thanks - I enjoyed that :0)

Could be a mid winter photo, nicely captured and processed. The sepia really suits it!
May 15th, 2013  
good shot and the sepia suits it
May 15th, 2013  
That's about how we all feel with the weather at the moment. Captured it well.
May 15th, 2013  
That looks like a good English downpour. Poor doggie! But a beautiful timeless picture.
May 15th, 2013  
The sepia tones make it look like somewhere else in the world.Brilliant.

We don't often see shots of the rain, so well captured and a great representation of this week really!
May 15th, 2013  
Not easy to photograph rain! This is super!
May 15th, 2013  
Love that you captured the rain!
I got hailed on, rained on and brilliant sunshine - all in my lunch hour.
May 15th, 2013  
Nice atmospheric image. Looks a bit like our neck of the woods right now.
May 15th, 2013  
Brilliant capture of the rain. Love the processing too
May 15th, 2013  
Great tones
May 15th, 2013  
Definitely catches the cold feel of spring rain.
May 15th, 2013  
Good shot you have captured the lovely British weather
May 15th, 2013  
I like this in sepia.
May 15th, 2013  
Oh this is miserable. But well done. Was just looking at your exif info and if all that came down in .008 seconds, you were really in for it!
May 16th, 2013  
Love the rain in sepia!
May 16th, 2013  
Miserable day yesterday. This captures the rain beautifully. Monty must be extremely patient (2.11pm) ours would have eaten us if they're not out by 9am :)
May 16th, 2013  
Terrific processing.
May 16th, 2013  
Aaah, those April showers...hold on, it's May now though isn't it!? Love the processing. My sympathies re. GCSE exam headaches. Youngest son is doing his AS levels and is hoping to get an interview for one of the colleges at Cambridge so has realised he now has to pull his finger out and is actually doing some revision. Wonders will never cease ;o) xx

@judithg Haha - brilliant!
May 16th, 2013  
that's some serious rain judith....love the post processed sepia colours.....gr8 to see a dog too ...although it's tail would be better at 45 degrees :)
May 16th, 2013  
I love this too and the processing. That is a lot of rain! Makes me glad I have a cat.
