Playing in the Rain.


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Playing in the Rain.
Playing in the Rain.
I shot this at the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha Nebraska last July. We had an unexpected rainstorm, and my grandson decided to have some fun. I should of been looking for shelter, but I couldn't pass up trying to get a shot of him playing in the rain. The camera got wet but survived. It stopped raining, and we had a great afternoon at the zoo.

This is simply great! I like how the boy is having fun and how rain falls into the floor. I like your choice of black and white.

  A typical boy loves to get wet until it’s time for a wash.

Great shot I love it.

  I'm very surprised that this image doesn't have many comments! In fact, this is the first time I come upon it myself. It is GREAT!!! I was struck by the dimensions in this photo: the pot with the cactus looks larger than life compared to the boy. This gives the photo a VERY unique and intersting perspective! Congrats on this well deserved finalist!
