THEME DAY--Umbrellas

Was a bit stressed that I might have to dig in my archives for an umbrella photo for Theme Day, but lo and behold, thanks to my phone camera when it's raining and I don't carry my biggie, I was able to capture these umbrellas (I used the solarize application) that were waiting for their owners to dry out at Cafe Teatro on Republic Square.

Oh...a lapsus...I said 'dry out', which sounds like they're tipsy, but I meant to say 'dry off '...

I hate it when I see a mess of umbrellas like this in our office. Unfortunately, I have yet to see an umbrella stand for folding umbrellas.

Love the filter that you used.

Whew...good thing it was raining and you had your phone camera at the ready. This is a neat effect --- kind of looks like a painting. Good one for theme day.

L'effet est super amusant! La pluie un peu moins mais moins genante que la neige et souvent moins froide...
Bon week-end!
