Dancing despite the rain - a photo on Flickriver

1 mai 2006 near Paris, Argenteuil sur Seine
it was rainging, more and more, but the dancers continued their spectacle, without stopping, between them, she was the most courageous. This is one picture I printed big size and have now for years in my living room.

Drabble prompt from a story a day 100 letters

For me they remain the symbol of courage,
continuing with obstacles, rain falling (literally also) on their shoulder and dancing on slippery ground

French cancan music! Public around a stage under their umbrella. I approach: girls proudly dancing.
The rain gets stronger, they do not stop.

A woman lets me take a photo from under her umbrella.
That girl lifting her leg proudly with rain on her shoulders, surrounded by audience under umbrellas: that photo still gives me courage.
