This photo was a bit of a happy accident. My son and I were at Legoland, CA, enjoying a water ride when we found we were gonna get wet! As it turns out, we didn't really get that wet - it was mostly mist - but the film grain (Photoshop Add Noise) seems to make it look wetter than it really is.
I don't know how this one will do - I've not been doing well with my submissions as of late. Time will tell...

Strong shot - though I lament the lack of a touch more environment - a sense of what the hell's going on would, I think, help; where you have simply a portrait - a well done, well toned, great contrast portrait however. I can see the rain, and a sense of steaminess/fogginess behind, but only s sense. Black and white works well, especially in the cpature of that reflected light around his face, but the half-silhouette, and his weak position in frame detract somewhat from great-shot potential. It looks like full frame, so even some juducious cropping might have helped a touch - if it's going to b e a portrait, really force the attention to the subject, huh? Pretty good work, though, for all those points.
