Great shot, I love it-Arie

Thank you CJ. Yes, I tried a focusing on the foreground more too, but wasn't quite pleased with the result. I was just happy to keep enough water off my lens to get anything :-)

Another nice rainy day "city" shot Brent. This might have been interesting with a shallow DOF and focus on the water with a colorful blurry b/g too. Did you try that? CJ

Thanks Jano and Sue/Mary Annes ;-)

Nice one, Brent. The colored lights on the water from the fountain give a really special touch to it.

Wow when it rains, it pours ! I like the night colors.

Thanks Rod. I thought for sure rain drops on my lens would mess this up, but all shots I took looked pretty clear with the wide aperture I had to use. Not bad for handheld, eh?

This works really well for me, nicely done Brent:-)
