Driving Rain

My entry in this week theme transport, shot taken in the pouring rain from a motorway bridge at 4:22pm today and yes I got soaked to the skin but my camera was dry protected with an umbrella rigged to the tripod. BoB
This is great - well worth the effort. Fav.

wonderful movement Peter...

@pcoulson Why, yes, I have noticed in movies that Englishmen carry umbrellas, mine of course is always in the back of my car - never with me when I need it!

Well done Peter, and how brave of you to do this in the pouring rain. I like the sense of movement and the lights from the vehicles. :)
