Hi Grace!
Perhaps it's 'The Season of the Witch',my friend! : D
Whatever the story behind this odd looking situation might be it certainly does make for an enjoyably unusual scene,doesn't it?
'Good Show'! : D

Comment from Sange


Ha! This was a fun find!
The bright umbrella with flower pattern stands out nicely from the monochromatic tone.
The snow, the leaves and the whimsical brella are all a fine entry for this contest.
Great angle, focus and nice Control on white balance.

It is quite a contrast between an umbrella and snow, but it is also a striking contrast between the vibrant colors of the umbrella and the dull colors of winter and autumn. I therefore think this is a fine entry for this contest.

Your photo is also nice and sharp and it is clear and well defined details to be seen in the umbrella. The exposure is perfect.

I also think the photo is nicely cropped and with the umbrella placed off to the left, it is a good balance in the composition. I think this is a very nice and well taken photo with a good DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

Yes, you have an odd combination here, although, living in Alaska, this weather combo is a real thing, well captured to show the way the seasons can overlap. Good focus, natural colors and tones, lighting it adequate. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from El-mundo


A great example of and entry for this competition, showing the summery brolly seemingly discarded on the leafy, snowy path, as though it had just fallen from the sky. The colours of light blue and pink flowers on the brolly contrast well with the shades of brown on the leaves and walls surrounding, and the neat white snow atop the concrete. Sharp clarity focusing on the umbrella, and good DOF that gives soft but still distinct fous to the b/g and the window and blind inside. A great obscure piece, good luck in the polls! :)

A curious image to be sure. I don't know about that umbrella, but when the leaves are fallen and the ground is covered with snow it seems an awful lot like winter. A fine shot with great colors and good composition. Good luck in the contest.

Well it is not spring or summer. Could be early winter or late fall. The only thing out of place appears to be the umbrella. Nice composition and framing and a good entry for this contest. Thank you for sharing

It's just an umbrella that has been put down! Your image is well composed. It is also sharp and has good exposure. Well done and good luck!

Impressive capture!
An interesting initial impact.
Aptly captured for the contest theme...
I find difficulty in looking for subjects to enter from my stock photos.

Sharply focused. Fine features & textures.
Subdued lighting.
Improve tilted framing.
Pin sharp focusing.
Good perspective & long depth of field...

Best of luck in the contest!
Thanks for sharing...
