 Just taking random street shots when I see a pretty girl with a nice polka dot umbrella so I snap the shot. I look back later and realize it's Famke Janssen (of X-Men fame).

Nice capture. Her face appears a bit out-of-focus though.

This would have been perfect if you could have timed it so that the person in front were not there. Otherwise, a gorgeous shot!

Is that Famke Janssen? Nice b/w tones, wish it were a tad more in focus but overall I like the mood of this shot.

Nice capture - Like the drops of rain very much - She looks like the woman from X-Men - The person infront of her is a little distracting though.

Strange, looking at this I am sure I either know that girl or I have also taken a candid photo of her on the street. Maybe she was a waitress. Maybe she's always in the street. Maybe she's always rushing like everyone. Lensbaby? I'm not even going to comment on the umbrella. 7
