i just want to say: old p/s camera = slow. slr = fast. my camera took a split second too long to shoot this. i was in a moving car and i wanted them in the frame. ah well.

I ended up giving this a four. The main reason was because the couple is leaving the frame, which was somewhat explained in the title. I feel that the title was created to overcome the composition, however. I did like how the rain was handled. The distortion is fun.
I think I'd prefer if the umbrella and feet weren't cropped off, but I think this is one of the few natural and spontaneous shots involving people for this challenge :)
Nice shooting. I like the dynamic, and for once someone has used the out of focus distortions of rain on window rather than simply focussing on the drops. it lends a mystery and sadness top the lines of those bricks and trees.
