She had me at ladybug

ladybug and umbrella rainy day pic 
Saturday's rainy weather didn't stop us from getting out of the house for provisions and a treat at mamacoffee. Caroline decided to go out dressed up, and I snapped lots of pictures of her walking through the gloom, armed and capped with a pink umbrella and ladybug hat. None of the pictures came out as sparkly as reality so I added a filter and a poem to dress this one up a bit.

Happy Monday!!

Ok, have to beg you for your filter tips. (BEG!) Am also rather fond of the poem...

Thanks guys! Ee, at Christmas I promise to bring my filters. And in the meantime, flash outside to smooth out shadows, then rebalancing contrasts and highlights in picasa is a great fast trick for poppy colors.

If I had a ladybug hat and a pink umbrella, I think I'd be much happier on these dark, cold, rainy days.

Fab! She certainly brightens the day up.
