Rain in Portland

So much weather to photograph here!  The last of our heavy rain systems rolled through midday today when we were driving in downtown Portland.  I tried photographing people crossing with umbrellas or on bikes, but those shots didn't turn out so well. This one ended up being the best 'through my rainy windshield' photo (#3).

It reminds me of a luscious oil painting...captures the colors of the city, even though we think of rainy days as being dull & gray...And it captures well the feeling of a Downtown, makes me want to be there too...Love it.

Your watery image is so pretty! Love it!! Hope the rain slacks off; I know y'all get tired of it as we tire of heat and humidity.

Like this rainy technique -- looks so impressive. Rainy season is so moody in feeling. -- barbaara

Całkiem ciekawie to wygląda, jak namalowany obraz. Pozdrawiam.
Quite interestingly it looks like a painting. Yours.
