Heavy Rain (photos) |
|
A couple of days ago, it was raining really heavily. So, out came the trusty digital camera, and here are the best three shots of the night. (I took about 25. I'm glad that digital film is free!)
The really interesting thing about taking all the photos was holding the camera still whilst I was getting pelted with rain and wind. I had to tweak the shutter timings to try and get a good photo without the flash: the flash destroyed the image, the falling rain all reflected the light into the lense, and it ruined the photo. I've still got the images, if you want to see...
I'll post about my car in the not-too distant future (and why I was walking through the rain instead of driving...)
For the person found this blog through google with the Ubuntu terminal command:
cd / && sudo rm -rf
as your search term, DO NOT RUN IT! It will destroy your computer! In fact, don't run ANY terminal command with "rm" in unless you know exactly what its doing!

I really love that last one!
Really?! I didn't like the last one.. the only reason I put it in was because I had so few good photos. (Some of the others are so awful, motion blur and the flash problem :( )
My personal favourite is the second one: I thought I managed to capture the flowing water's motion in that one better...
What do you think of the second one?
The motion in the second one is great especially how you caught the wave of the puddle cresting near the curb. Also, I like the swirl of the headlights as the almost mimic the movement of the water.
What draws me so much to the third is how clearly you captured the contrast of light and dark in the water, the picture takes on a very textural quality. Coupled with the stark brightness of the headlights the composition just pops for me.
Great shots!
Thanks :)
