Very cool effect with the slow s-speed and long rain drops Carol.
These are the kind of images I'll remember you by, your signature style if you will.
Still checking out of BP in Oct when my membership runs out, I've just too many other sites to manage, not enough time..
Or money.
It all adds up for some reason ;) #8766652
