Look for.. umbrellas

One of the things I learned in shooting for newspapers, is this: rainy days are good for “weather pictures”, like this (which incidentally is my assignment photo, as per yesterday’s assignment):

My tip of the day for you: on rainy days, look for wet reflections and colourful umbrellas.

(Shot with manual focus 45mm prime TS-E lens, 1Ds MkIII full-frame camera).

Sometimes these daily posts can be very short and still be very beneficial, don’t you think?)

OK, here’s one more shot, a “decisive moment”.
