I would not definitely sit on that bench on such a rainy day, but I would enjoy the beautiful buildings there... not very easy to have such lovely and atmospheric images when it's pouring, dear Rosa! I like the framing in the main picture and...I guess you had a great time with your daughter, despite the rain!
HBM and enjoy your day, my friend

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Adele club
Thank you for your very kind comments dear Adele. Not easy taking photos with gloves on...but it was cold :-) My daughter always tells me, never let the weather spoil your day, so we didn't ;-))
Have a good and safe new week my friend.

It really is an attractive place with those beautiful old buildings Rosa. I love the framing in the main shot and would agree with your choice - coffee in the car is best on a day like this!

 Keith Burton
Keith Burton club
Two lovely images Rosa...............but definitely not the sort of weather to be sitting outside on a bench! I note you had coffee and cheese straws in the car........a good choice :-)

The image in the PiP is my favourite of the two...........you've captured the driving rain perfectly and the composition and detail is spot on!

HBM to you............have a great week.
2 years ago.
Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Keith Burton club
I have sat on this bench many times, but definitely not that day Keith! There were 5 cheese straws in the pack, so we decided to snap the last one and have half each....they were a ft long and delicious!

The PiP is also my favourite Keith, but I thought it better to show the bench more clearly...as it's Monday! Many thanks for your kind comments and I hope you enjoy a great week too.

Añosos pero fuertes y hermosos edificios de piedra con arquitectura propia del lugar. Fantástico como conseguiste que las gotas se prolongaran y viesen en la foto estupendamente. Los reclamos del banco los apaga la lluvia, pero bajo el arco desde el que disparas se estaría bien y mejor al calor de algún Pub. HBM ¡Buena semana, Rosa!

The big plus of such weathers: you won't always have (stupid) people standing in front of you and your cam .. ;-)
I have almost the same pov, like in your pip, but some drops less.
It's a beauty of a small town.

Hi Rosa
A wonderful and interesting picture, which I like very much!
Very nice composition
The reflections on the wet footpath work really well.
Also, I am sorry to hear that your family have come down with the dreaded virus. Hope they get better soon!
Best Wishes, (slightly late) HBM, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!
