The Shared Umbrella

Comment by jdannels:
When I met my girlfriend in in Guadalajara Mexico, we obviously had no car or personal transportation of our own. We also were staying with families as part of the a Study Abroad program and we weren't allowed to be alone as is the custom there. We headed in a taxi downtown and spent the whole day together and at one point it had been one of the those flash afternoon storms that pass in a half hour. We had only one umbrella and walked underneath for so long, we finally realized that storm had been long gone and there was no one else but us walking around with an umbrella over our heads. We've been together ever since. :)

Good composition. Looks a bit like a shot you would see in a travel guide though. Good effort.

Very nice lighting and composition. I like the almost gritty feel in the face.

Excellent lighting. Love the textures in here top as well. And I would suggest running out right now and buying lights. It's so much fun and there is so much to learn! What workshop did you attend? How did you find it?

Deb!!! What amazing lighting you captured! This is absolutely beautiful. I'm very sorry I didn't get to voting on it, you would have had another very high score. Great job!
