Re: Rain

David:
Great cormorant in the rain!

Your picture made me think of one I captured last spring - I'd forgotten I'd shown wildlife in the rain:

An hour or so ago, on one of the other lists, Mark Bohrer posted a couple of shots depicting rain... as a droplet on the end of a leaf.

I can understand his concern... for unlike snow, rain is very difficult- no, almost impossible - to portray on film. The droplets are too tiny, too fast, and unless the light is at the absolutely perfect angle, it virtually disappears in the shots. No wonder so many folks try to shoot rain by showing the reflections in puddles, rain drops on flowers and the like.

About two weeks ago, I got lucky.

Comments appreciated... criticism grudgingly accepted.

Thanks for looking.  :-)
