End of the Rainbow

photo 769
No bench action today, rain stopped play. But that just means reflections and umbrellas if you turn around. And a fortuitously abandoned one at that...

Wow - what an amazing shot!

Terrific find and reflection.

Huh I wonder what happened here!? Umbrella down! Love the person in the back as well, how long did you have to wait for them to show up lol? ;-P
posted April 26th, 2012  
@tamsg4 Haha well this is Trafalgar Square so it was kind of the opposite! Had to wait a few mins for a crowd free shot. In fact I was crouched down for way too long taking photos of a broken brolly. I really wanted a bright brolly behind and with a good reflection. But it cost me some aches and pains in the knees and back!

Brilliant - I'm always after dead umbrella shots but this is the best - brill colour and brill goings on behind with reflections and everything - you are so patient. And your knees are in quite good nick I think.
