Rainy Day

Talkin’ to myself and feelin’ old

Sometimes I’d like to quit

Nothing ever seems to fit

Hangin’ around

Nothing to do but frown

Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

What I’ve got they used to call the blues

Nothin’ is really wrong

Feelin’ like I don’t belong

Walkin’ around

Some kind of lonely clown

Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

  1. I always love raindrops on windows, watching and waiting for the beads to give in to gravity and choose a bizarre pathway to obliteration as they descend.There is a glorious riot of colour in the background which craves my attention, but I’m so attracted to those water beads, now which one will fall next……

  2. Raindrops are cool, the reflections they create are cool… did I say I like raindrops? Well I do. And your image is cool. 😉 It doesnt hurt that you have a colorful background either. I like it. 🙂

  3. Very nice.

  4. I think this is one of your best work. Amazing abstract colour composition. I could imagine this blown up to 2 metres hanging on the wall

  5. I always liked that song and your picture goes with it perfectly

  6. Excellent color through the rain. Nice, moody image. Great work!

  7. So usual in Vancouver. The winter rain. Glad you were warm inside and not getting wet.

  8. The background colors make this image delightful. Enough to lift the spirits of someone downhearted on a rainy Monday. :o)

  9. such a great song and a wonderful capture to go with it, it may be rainy but its not dreary with the lovely colors

  16. Love the blurred color and mood created by the drops on the window. Such a nice soft way to view the world.

  17. encore une histoire d’eau……..lol

  18. I really really dig this one. I dont like rain but I like photos with rain water on windows 😉 Excellent shot.

  19. Great depth, good contrast, great color!

  20. I really like the undefined color in the background and how you cant quite make out what it is.

  21. Waiting behind the glass until the rain stops, I always feel trapped in a shot like this 🙂

  22. Isn’t this fun! I can make out a car, sort of, and still I’m captivated by the color and the rain on the window.

  23. If you’re gonna be down, Elaine, you might as well cheer us all up with this!

  24. Cool raindrops, love the details and the colours, wonderful!

  25. amazing shot — i love the darkness of this shot — and the colors are simply magical!! bravo!!

  26. Brillant colors and good sharpness. Very well done!!

  27. This is lovely shot, its raining outside right now…its kinda apt. I got a similar shot slotted for the 13th, dont miss it 😉

  28. I love this, Elaine. Such rich colors through the droplets. Nice capture.

  29. Such a fine abstract! I see you have some pretty pink petals in the corner of your blog:-) I like them.

  30. My what big drops you have. Beautiful.

  31. Each droplet is a jewel. Do you know of Indira’s Web? I fluctuate between attending to foreground and background. Great balance!

  32. Looks like my windows. Been raining cats and dogs lately. The focuspoint is set just right.

  33. Nice array of droplets and the colours mixed in with them are great-oh and I love that song!

  34. You have done some really good work here. I’m surprised I haven’t run across it earlier. Well done…especially this one.

  35. I like clarity of the raindrops and the hints of blue and red in the background.
