Spring Blues Are Dark Gray

So... we had to do an assignment for my photojournalism class that illustrated spring fever/relationships.  Either or.  My original idea was to have a student in full golf attire practicing his iron shots in the rain with a title "Can't Wait till Spring?"  Thankfully my contacts fell through so I was able to take these shots of the three course meal of a man Thomas Freeman.  

In the shots he's depressed because the weather is putting a damper on his tennis plans.  Imagine this scenario.  Thomas had a date scheduled with a sassy temptress, but a passing storm system came so she cancelled.
