Went swimming with my grandson and camera. The rain started pelting down so I took some shots. Didn’t realise there were people walking across the bridge until I saw the shots on my screen. It was raining so hard there was so little colour that the original image looked black and white. I love rain.

I like to blur the line between Art and Photography. I am addicted to taking photographs and then manipulating them. All images including textures are my own.
There are many subjects that interest me, but my favourite is people…and I think the hardest to capture.
Thanks for visiting my gallery.

Wow, that’s amazing! Where did all those people come from?
Thanks Mel. I bought this camera to capture such moments. Maybe the people were there because I had a camera :)????. There is a paddle board person hiding under the bridge on the left to stay out of the stinging rain.

This is an incredible capture Jillian. The fact that this was not planned but purely opportunistic makes it a timeless shot.
