Microfiction Monday #66

Threat of sunburn on his belly had him hiding behind a parasol which, luckily, served to keep his foe at arms length into the bargain!
Thanks go to Susan at Stony River for a delicate, grey image prompt that inspired me to play, yet again, to produce the above sunny variation!

    Cool. How did you add color to the photo? I agree that he is clever, indeed. A parasol...who would have thought? Guess he had to use what was at hand. Good job!

    N.B. If one whom I shall call 'Boycott Bill' comes by to see what happened to his comment, he can find the answer over on Napple Notes

    Clever thought on dual purpose of the parasol. The belly can be a good target when burnt red, must be!

    Ah, we can all use dual purpose accessories! And a big, red stomach does become a target! Fun one for the day! Have a great week!

    Thanks for the coloring! In the original the warriors seem airborne. A fun-filled response.

    A pity he had no access to sunscreen. But a parasol can be handy, why, its beauty could distract the fiercest of warriors! :D Nice retouching...
