Umbrella ella ella ella

"Now that it's raining more than ever, you can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella..."

Got up this morning and didn't feel any better than I had last night. Made it into work and struggled through the morning. Was very tempted to go and try to snooze in the car at lunchtime but talked myself out of it and decided some fresh air would do me the world of good even though it was a miserable day. I don't know if it's because I felt more confident hidden behind my big parka hood, but I got loads of photos and was spoilt for choice tonight!

After much umming & aaahing I finally decided I wanted to use this one because I liked how the womans reflection showed up on the wet path. I initially tried to do the focal b&w on Picasa but couldn't get it "tidy" enough for my liking. So I have driven my poor husband demented for the past hour or so by getting him to figure out for me how to do it on photoshop instead! I think I really tried his patience tonight, bless him!
