Was taking a few pictures after an evening out on the southbank when this couple strolled into shot under the street lamp with their red umbrella. Seemed like a nice enough scene for my photo today.
Thank you all for you kind comments and Favs on The White Horse, found its way briefly onto the PP which made my day :)
Or were they friends you dragged along to be models?? Only kidding what a stroke of luck, definitely adds to the shot. I read a quote in a post yesterday which said words to the effect that to make a perfect picture all an artist has to do is include the colour red - I think they have a point.
Absolutely brilliant shot. Got to be a fav. The red umbrella really makes this. A really right place right time photo. Fantastic. Congrats on the PP for Mr Ed!! too. He deserved to be there.
@paulaw haha, I don't think I know anyone that would be willing to wander along the Thames in the rain like that to pose for me! No was just one of those moments, was taking shots of the view but not very interesting until these two wandered along, so just waited for them to come into view. True about red, although I tried that in my next shot today and I'm not so sure it worked!
the umbrella makes the shot for sure
