Blown Away! by ukandie1

Blown Away!

Sometimes, when you look for a shot of something that will be your shot of the day here on 365, you find something quite unexpected.

An abandoned and obnoxiously bright umbrella that has been blown out by the wind and then abandoned becomes a metaphor for a celebration that is personal to my husband and I. Today we celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary, we are about as opposite as could possibly be in every possible way (and that is a lot of possibles)!
Just super!

Happy anniversary! Hope y'all have a great day and many more to come. Great capture of the eye popping umbrella, contrasts nicely in those leaves.

A wonderful capture. It looks all the more wrecked because it is so brightly coloured. Happy Anniversary! 20 years of being opposites and staying together is great!

Sometimes things that aren't meant to go together, in the end make the best photos. Congrats!

I definitely looks like a Chicago umbrella! ;)

Many happy returns on the day for you and your hubby! Twenty years is an amazing accomplishment. Congrats!

Happy anniversary Andie! And well done on 20 years! I love this shot. It tells a story (or many different stories) all on its own
December 4th, 2014  
Happy happy anniversary and this is just a great capture!
December 4th, 2014  
Happy anniversary. My husband and I are complete opposites too! It makes it easy to know what he thinks about thing.... I come up with my decision- then I automatically know that he will think the exact opposite. We have been married 7 years and happy as clams. I guess the saying "opposites attract", has truth to it!

A great find that can tell many different stories as well as providing the interesting metaphor.
December 5th, 2014
