I'm cruising and have to make this quick! Joining in Donna's always fun Personal Photo Challenge.
All pics taken with my Olympus SP-590UZ with a little editing via PicMonkey.
A sunny welcome followed by a sudden and quite unexpected snowstorm - even the
penguins seemed startled - and I was grateful I had a big warm parka and gloves.

The old city of Hue, Vietnam - December 2012
It poured down hard but was so very beautiful, the rainstorms went on and on - sightseeing
was definitely soggy! It was of course "the wet", one of the two seasons in this part of the world.
Hue, Vietnam, still in the pelting rain - "taxi anyone?"

ReplyDeleteLove the penguins! I can feel the cold. The taxi shot is nice, too. Lots of color amid the rain. My, you certainly get around...the world, that is!
ReplyDeleteFantastic! The colors and glistening rain in the final two are lovely. The penguins are too cute!
ReplyDeletePouring rain can certainly affect a day when one hoped to be outside with their camera. I like the group of taxis.
