unruly umbrella

for get pushed this week MissyAnn asked me to look at the work of Elliot Erwitt, i really like his fun photosequences and he has one about an umbrella that did not want to be closed. Apparently he saw the scene unfolding on the beach and followed the people, shooting two rolls of film as they struggled with their umbrella https://juan314.wordpress.com/2012/04/27/pequena-historia-de-una-sombrilla-que-no-queria-ser-cerrada-little-story-of-an-umbrella-that-did-not-want-to-be-closed-by-elliott-erwitt/
he also took an iconic shot of a man leaping with his umbrella in front of the Eiffel Tower, https://d32dm0rphc51dk.cloudfront.net/hWJPurKf9JYF4uJma4wpyA/larger.jpg but i am not that athletic, especially with cars passing me!
