It rained all day on Saturday.
I thought it was time to get some rainy days pictures.
I don't get much but wet.

Mostly it was drab.

    Re: Rain
    Nice shots; i like the idea of taking photos of the type of scene - bad weather etc. - that people usually leave out. Rain makes great light-

    I love the color of the signs and the hustle and bustle of all those people walking in the rain.

    I like this first one because of the signs and hustle and bussle as mentioned above. But also because the traffic is going in two different directions. I just wish the people on the left were closer to the camera. But that doesn't really matter. You should keep ths one though its nice and shows the culture of the rain! All the different umbrellas!

    Jerry,

    Having a one year old daughter means I don't have that much free time to take photographs. It has helped me to try things I would not have thought of.

    Thanks for your comments. The irony is that because it was raining so hard there were a lot less people than usual. On a normal day there is no space to take a photograph.

    Ashley, thanks for your comments.
    I see what you mean about the space at the bottom. I was a little pre-occupied making sure that my umbrela was covering my camera to think too much about composition.
