Water is such a fascinating thing to photograph. It reflects light which is one of the reasons why when you watch movies, the streets are always slick and gleaming - even when it hasn't rained in months. It makes things visually interesting and is so much prettier. I love photographing it, and finding the many different ways it can evoke a mood. The above image was taken on an overcast day when the sky was especially bright. Great for capturing the glassy waters edge.
This image was shot at a bit of a slower shutter speed to catch the droplets as they fell. Doesn't it make you want to jump in for a little singing and splashing in the rain?
Okay, I knew I had a money shot when I got this one off. This was shot about 12:30 am when there weren't a lot of cars on the road. I grabbed my tripod and did a long exposure to make sure to capture as much detail as I could in the sky and in the background. I can't wait for another rainy day. I have some ideas of where I want to shoot next.

You can just FEEL the water droplets in that second picture! That last photo is awesome!
