Seeing as there aren’t many warm days left with fall progressing quickly and winter rapidly approaching, I decided to take the opportunity today to go out for a ride. It was a balmy 15°C / 59°F and windy as heck!
Unfortunately the weather decided to play tricks on me, as soon as I got E2046’s Horo out of her protective foam it started to spit. This wasn’t much of an issue as I was sheltered by trees, but after capturing the photos below it pretty much started to outright rain. Since I don’t know how well E2046’s paint holds up to rain and Horo’s protection was a cardboard box, I opted to pack her up quickly and get out of there. Once back on the road, the rain stopped of course, a little annoying. Ok, extremely annoying. Because of this, I opted to make the photos as gloomy as I felt.





Another thing I noticed was the water level of the lake seemed awfully low. Some of you might remember a past post where I rode to this same lake, Conestogo Lake. The water level certainly wasn’t as high today as it was then that’s for sure. I suspect that it’s artificially adjusted by the dam near by, not sure if it’s to protect it from ice or what though.

Ooo, very nice — the bokeh really gave the images a gloomy look. Loving the tiny little droplets of water on her as well — they’re pretty much in-scale with the figure!
I assume no harm was done from the rain?
Thanks, I almost thought they could look like tears and then thought it would have been great to get them on her face then but had to rush unfortunately.
I don’t think any harm was done, I haven’t closely examined her since I returned.
Gloomy as the day was, Horo definitely brightened it up.
If only she could have contrasted more sharply against the gloom…
She could have, but that was by design really. I liked it best this way.
The backgound of the picture is so beautiful that Horo becomes more beautiful! Good photo skill and devices.
Thanks!
