...come again some other day...

We've had an unusually wet, rainy spring this year. A few days ago, I was playing around taking shots through my living room window. It was POURING rain, but the sun was out, providing some interesting backlighting. Playing with the Topaz "Spicify" filter gave me second thoughts about wanting the rain to go away. Click to really see the raindrops.

  1. That rain is really sheeting down! The light in your shot is really interesting. I hope you get some sunny days soon....

  3. Ah, but the rain makes everything that beautiful color of green. When I was in the southwest, I realized just how brown everything is -- while waiting for the rain to come.

  9. I'm all too familiar with the rain but it's great (if not a little frustrating!)to capture it raining while the sun is shining!
