Rain Man

Uploaded: April 10, 2013

Description

My son went outside and got caught in a huge downpour. When I went to check on him, he was just standing there smiling in the rain as if it were the best thing in the world!

Got out his new umbrella for this reinactment.

Nice - I thought of "Singing in the Rain", but that's not the 80's now, is it?

Cute shot of your son. I like that the shutter speed was sufficiently slow to blur the rain before it hit the umbrella. #10648498

What a charming portrait, Michele! I love the rain coming down at an angle on the umbrella, and the warm light underneath it highlighting his sweet smile! #10648552
