You are an incorrigible paparazzi, not for the stars, but of ordinary people! For our greater happiness! All these people will never know that they are immortalized by the great John Van Aarle. Thanks for making us smile with your postings. Cheer! Annie

Hmmm...the lady on the right doesn't seem to enjoy the rain at all!!...and the husband is feeling the wrath of her temperous weather!! hahaha! :P

A nice street shot John. Good take!
Also, that reminds me that you sent me an email about starting a 'theme' (?) on our personal lives. How is it going on? I'm game for it but please give me some time...I'm busy for this month. Cheers.

Great rainshot John, happy crowd there - it isn't supposed to rain when you're on holiday!!
Good one
Janice

Hi John. Erg mooie opname van een regenachtig dag in het zonning zuiden. Zeer goed weer gegeven van iets wat niet makkelijk is vooral de kleur en de personen versterken het beeld mooi.

Hi John, well this is a bright sunny pic for a rainy day :) good street photo although it looks like a mall and there is rain, something I don't understand in the pic ;)

Nice and sharp photo. People are looking at you wondering why you are taking their picture lol.

Take care, Yan
p.s. did you get my email? Otherwise I will have to put my email visible. Cheers!

Dus het regent daar ook wel eens; welnu je liet dat al eerder zien, geloof ik.
Maf dametje op gympen met opgestoken plu onder het afdak; daarnaast dat sjagrijnige stel; 2 foto's in één. En het karretje heeft ook beentjes.
Leuke prent John.

Hi, John! I really like the orange theme here as well as the detail in the rain. I like the way you can see it splashing off the ground.

Great capture of people expressions - that lady on the right looks like she is about to explode - and her husband is praying to the heavens. Very nice shot John,

Hi John, this is a great street photograph. your desicion of cropping makes it look as though the lady holding the umbrella is under the shelter, while the couple on the right have their umbrellas down, and are kep dry by a miricale.
Great work,
Udi.

Hey John. I remember your first days of posting windmills!! Now you see a photo everywhere and you can capture anything. You have become a versatile photographer... Soon we will see the over 18 models?

Hi John,
very colourfull, a little graphic and again some pinch of coolness and a funny wink!
