Golden soak

The rain had been falling heavily all day, almost relentlessly. But finally it cleared away, leaving a blaze of late sunlight which burned through the window. Hundreds of droplets clinging to the window caught the golden light. This didn’t last long, but needed to be captured.

Golden shower?!? …

I love it when the sun dries the raindrops on the windows. Unfortunately today there’s no sun, only lots, lots of rain.

Sometimes I think you and Cos are a bit thick lol :)
Entertaining though. Love the light in these and when cooped up by the weather why not take photos when the sun comes out.

  Ha! You mean we’re naive young lads?! Of course! Glad you like the shots – it was a question of seeing something and having to reach for the camera fairly quickly.
