Another Night Shot

I had to work late again, so by the time I got out of work, it was dark and rainy. As I walked home I noticed a few flowers covered in raindrops. It's a bit too bright thanks to the flash, but it's late and I didn't want to spend too much time editing the picture. Maybe later.

I just noticed that several of my recent pictures have been at night or in the dark. I think I should try to get something nicer during the day.

At Night

I've always liked the look of trees at night during winter while it's raining and a lamp is shinning through them. Ok, that was a mouthful. I guess you can't really see the rain in this picture, but I was sure getting wet while I took the picture.



After a couple of suggestions from my post on Photoblog, I cropped the picture and removed the empty spaces on the top and right. Let me know what you thing of this edit.

Splash

As I walked home from work a few days ago, I noticed the splash some steady streams of water were making on the pavement. I thought it would make a good picture, but it was dark, cold and wet. So today that it rained, I remembered the splash and went back and took this picture. The lighting wasn't great and it came out a bit grainy, but I still think it's a neat picture.

Fun fact: it took me 70 pictures to get this shot. I did have a few others with only one splash or two, but this was the best one. Thank goodness for digital cameras.

Raindrops

It's stopped snowing. But now it's back to rain. Most people at work are glad the snow is over. But I honestly prefer the snow. I know if I commuted, I would have a different opinion, but walking in snow is much nicer than walking in the rain. I took this picture on my way to work this morning.

By the way, what color would you say this is? I can't decide if it's violet, lilac, purple, magenta, fuchsia, plum or what.

Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear

Fall in the Rain

As I was driving back to my apartment from the post office I quickly stopped by the Microsoft campus to take a couple of pictures. This first picture is looking down 36th Ave. into the campus. See this location on Live Maps.


This second picture is of employees playing flag football in the rain at the fields on the Microsoft Campus. See this location on Live Maps.

Yet Another Rainy Day

Just another rainy day. I wasn't feeling very good in the afternoon, so I didn't go anywhere. This tree is right outside the building I work in.

Another Rainy Day

Seattle is starting to show the weather it's famous for. Every once in a while there was a ray of sun making it through the clouds.
