Before the rain

There was rain in those clouds but nothing could get in the way for an evening run on the beach.

Rain droplets

Summer's humidity and heat has now engulfed my subtropical city.
The drizzle and cloudy sky allowed me to explore the possibility of a vintage lens adapted to work on my modern camera.

The close-up capabilities and focusing really please me.

Secret

On a slightly cooler, wetter January day.

I don't often photograph in an urban environment since most of my free time is spent away from the city, in nature. There is a real challenge for me to "see" an interesting subject in the visual clutter of concrete, glass and steel.

Kiss in the rain

The day started sunny but heavy clouds gathered after lunch.
We paddled an open stretch of water when the storm hit and lightening was around us.
Reaching the shore was a relief.
