I feel like I can really empathise with you in this picture. I love the contrasts and total topsy turvy subject ... it's a beautiful twist!

Haha perfect...how'd you think to capture that feeling?!
'Well... i'll go out in the caribbean and take a B/W holding an umbrella...yeh.'
You're some sweet genius girly. xx
aDeparture (65 months ago | reply)
Apparently humor isn't my strong suit and my comment did come with a disclaimer! So seriously, I love the concept here; checking for rain holding an umbrella while standing in the ocean, it's brilliant! The overall composition and treatment give it a somewhat surreal effect. Nice Job!

Amazing photo!
RobHodnett (65 months ago | reply)
This is wonderful, you've pulled it off brilliantly. I didn't notice the horizon being slightly askew, and when I did, it added to the off-kilter, wonky charm - I really love this :o)

i don't think you have things wrong anesh. you sometimes display the stuff that goes on inside from an outside point of view. sometimes you express what you observe on the outside via your internal quirky filter. you always manage to make me smile or at least smirk! for both, i am always grateful to get to see your visions... ; )
AArchibald (65 months ago | reply)
c_a_masson- Thanks!! :)
wmwrose- Wow! Thanks so much! What an honour!!! :D
Fritz9373- Haha! I'm glad you picked up on my horribly dry sense of humor :P
LaurelF- Hahah! Thanks! I think the people who were watching from a distance didn't find me much of a genius though :P
aDeparture- Hahahah! You're funny :P Thanks!
Crafty_witchy_girl- Thanks! I don't think I've seen you here before....welcome!! :)
RobHodnett- Hee hee...it's hard to set up a tripod on sand :P
Thanks so much!!
Richard Cody- Thanks!! :)
Tom O'Neil- Ohh wow! Haha! Another one! Thanks!!
I'm getting spoiled today :)
equusignis- Gosh, you always say the nicest things you know that? And you too always seem to leave me with a smile on my face :) So I owe you my gratitude :)
Thanks very much my friend!

I'm really late. Wonderful image. I'm trying to picture you sloshing as hard and as fast as you can thru the water trying to beat the 10 second self timer, only to stop suddenly and compose yourself quick, lol. Unless you have a remote or something, hehe.
AArchibald (65 months ago | reply)
EARTH 2015- Thanks!
CaptCaveman- You're not really late :P I posted it today! Hahaha
