Dreary Day

“It was a dark and stormy night…” There - I’ve done it. I’ve always wanted to start my novel with that famous first line from Snoopy’s novel. I imagine this photo would be the cover photo for Snoopy’s great American novel.

My husband and I were driving in the late afternoon of a rainy autumn day. We came up with this idea of shooting him walking away from me. I believe the umbrella makes the whole thing work - it adds a sense of mystery to the photo. Who is that guy, and why is he walking alone in the rain? This one, for obvious reasons, is best in black and white.

By the way, you can find the entire text of Snoopy’s novel here. It’s a great read!
