Default Rainy Day Blues

I didn't actually use the proper white balance on this shot, because I liked the feel the cooler colors gave it.



I decided the weather called for me to break out the record player.

Agreed, it definitely captures the feel of a rainy day. White balance doesn't always have to be spot on

Thanks all.

I was really hoping to sneak in without being spotted as a noob. Oh well.

Love the cool feel to the flower shot and wonderful perspective on the record player, nothing like the crackle of a great album to bring back memories.

Your first shot not only looks rainy it feels rainy. Good job!
