   Yep, there ya go Tim, it's amazing how images deviate from what you 
actually wanted in the first place. I'm doing it all the time.

   I like it. It does convey 'loneliness' to me, which I often understand. I 
like the rain effect, it works well as it is, but I wonder if you can't add 
a spotlight in a horizontal plane just above the umbrella and then add some 
rain in a small patch (half body length?), just to show the direction of 
where it's coming from? I think that would look good against a black 
background.
