From a day of torrential rain, went out with a tripod - the street was so quiet and anyone who was down was moving quickly. It was overcast and dark and I had FP4 which is only 125 asa so an fstop of 22 gave quite long exposures, from 1/2 a second ish. I've cropped this square as I've been playing with my mamiya and it's all loaded up with film, I am waiting oh so patiently for a day off - hahahaha.
Yes that is a tree growing in the street and this street is open to traffic too.

Oh! Fabulous.... I was going to ask if this was film..... I love it. Digital is all very well but this is terrific! :-)

I love the contrast and motion. It has such a real "feel" to it. Nicely done.

I like the slice of life and movement. So glad the tree was left to grow. Another shot for another time, perhaps?

Really enjoying this. Love the rush movements of a rainy street, people move much slower in good weather. Fav
