I don't post much over here but I was out and about yesterday with the intentions of shooting some birds, but with the lack of rain of late I had no luck. Instead I got these. I think they belong in this share. C&C appreciated.

This umbrella was next to the peer were the Great Blue Heron usually are. I thought it was a neat find.

I really like the first one, it's got a very powerful environmental message. Especially since the umbrella was obviously left there when it was still wet.

Thanks Pete.

Thank Izak

Jamie, they are both nice shots but the first one is great ! The first one stayed in my mind after i stopped veiwing it, the sign of a great photo. Great work.

Thanks Jim.

Here is the same version. I just went and burned the folds just a touch to give them a little more depth.

That first one is an excellent shot. it is a paradox of sorts, an umbrella which reminds one of rainy days, on parched earth. The umbrella is a bit blown though, but recovered nicely in the second version. Thanks for sharing.
