I thought this shot has the potential to be a classic, if only you can isolate the woman with umbrella and frame it with the curvy bridge. Just my 2 cents.

that doesn't sound like a good reason to slant ... at least not for me ... a super low angle shot will make it really interesting (if you make use of whatever reflection off the wet ground as well)

I think a tighter crop around the lady with the umbrella would've been better. The people sitting on the left, the leg on the right of the photo and the empty space at the bottom don't do much for the photo IMHO.

But if you're too brave, then you're a fool!

Q: what to do when caught in the rain?
A: Take out your camera and shoot. (Most ppl will keep their cameras in double plastic cover to keep the rain out, and miss all the interesting happenings out in the rain.)
