A Shelter From the Rain

Monday, December 27, 2010

Today was very fun. I stayed over at a friend's house and stayed up till 3 AM

watching two Pirates of the Caribbean movies...then at noon we went skiing!

Fresh powder, quick lines, snowing. It was so great. I had so much fun! :) On a

different note, here's a shot I took a while ago. I really liked the bright of the

yellow umbrella against the rich blue of the sky. A little editing and it turned

out quite nicely.

50 Word Story:

Rain Repellent

Grey skies and the chill of rain to come. As the thick clouds begin to cry -

lightly at first, then harder and harder - a wind sweeps over the grass,

blowing the tears sideways into a driving rain. A bright yellow umbrella,

like a sun. Defiant against the sheets of rain.
