1400: Raining splats and sprogs. With a wind would get right up me kilt if I wore one.

A little too heavy to pull out my camera without it getting soaked. And it isn’t that waterproof. So it’s umbrella dogems to steal a few shots…then hold up the foot traffic under some small shopfront eave to chimp¹ off the rubbish ones.

A rainy setting can be El Supremo for monochrome photography. But my umbrella leaks and holding it in this wind makes focusing a sketchy nightmare.
