RE: Picture a Day - Its rainy!

Yes, the burdock leaf! :)))))
Personally, I don't like to borrow an umbrella with me (thats too much excessive weight!), and protect myself from the rain with either a cap or a windbreaker. When rain is light, I dont mind to become a little wet, and when it is heavy - then even an umbrella does not really help much, > I prefer simply not to get out at all :)

During the rain, one may take a lot of interesting photos, people actively react to what is happening, from the outside spectator position it looks funny :) someone pulls a jacket over their head, someone covers themselves with a briefcase or a large post box; and this girl managed to pick up a suitable burdock leaf at a lawn. Funny scene! Luckily, I noticed the approach of this scene in time and managed to take my photo not from behind.

Sort:  

The leaf is magic. I love walking in the rain, light rain. I have a hat made of treated straw, with a wide brim that works wonderfully to cover the head. Umbrellas have limited utility because there always seems to be a wind that turns them upside down. Plus they take up a hand! That's no fun :)

+++ Apparently so! I use backpack for umbrlla, but it already houses camera and 2 lenses, and a book; adding more weight is no good.

a photo?..

Here is mine: this H&M cap doing its job for me the last 15 years, I think!

That is a well used hat

I am a hat fanatic. My family is always buying me hats because I have issues with the sun. The hats double nicely in the rain though. This one is in relatively good shape (I go through them). My favorite was from California and looked as though it might have been used by farm workers. Really stiff and a broad brim that sloped down instead of up. Not cosmetic, but useful. It unraveled eventually and I had to discard it. The one pictured here is not good in the wind because it doesn't have a draw string under the chin.
