umbrella graveyard
After Ernesto last week, there were many of these makeshift graveyards throughout DC. When we lived in NYC we also saw many of them. I am always surprised and more than a little disappointed that adults will just toss their broken things to the ground like that. This case was particularly annoying as these umbrellas are at the base of a trash can. Does it really take that much effort to place the trash INTO the can???Secondly, I think collecting these discarded items and creating some large scale art would be an interesting and enlightening project.

I see this a lot after a big storm in my city. My take on the "uncanned umbrella syndrome" is that they break free from their already-drenched owners, take flight, and crash land at the first obstacle that stops them on the sidewalk.
That Ernesto was some kind of storm, yes?

just as you mentioned, this photo is artistic in some ways. IMHO!
