Parapluies

Prior to traveling to Carcassonne, France, in July 2018, I spent some time looking at recent Carcassonne photos on Instagram. I find this a good way to research what’s going on and what photo opportunities might be present. I noticed that one of the streets in the old town had umbrellas strung above it. This seems to be a relatively common thing to do in Europe, though I hadn’t been anywhere where I could get a good photo. After arriving, we walked from our hotel down to the old town, and I took a dozen or so photos of the umbrellas. I ended up cropping out a few things, and this was what I ended up with.
