 Taken in an alleyway in Melbourne, was standing in the bright sunshine of day in this spot for about ten minutes because i just felt something was going to eventuate, then from above a lady from a top story balcony started watering her plants, and water fell just beautifully in the sunshine. I felt very lucky to witness it, im not sure this scale of image brings out this photograph but it is one of my favourite i have taken to date.

It seems as though light is what showers down softly upon the crowd. maybe a little too much oof, though, even for me. 7

Those lamps in the rain with the beautiful lighting are quite elegant.
