Saturday Snapshot July 20, 2013 Rainy Day Images

I am enjoying capturing shots of nature. These images are a rainy morning two Saturdays ago when I went to the office to work.

It was not raining when I got in the car but within a mile I was driving through rain.
This is a shot on main street after I parked.

Looking across the street from my office, across the four lanes, 
the Courthouse is blurred by the rain.

I was hoping to get the 'rooster tail' of water from one of the passing cars 
but it didn't really come through in the picture.

I had to exit my car and dash up the steps to get into my office.
See the rain pouring off the awning to the right?
I waited about ten minutes then made the dash.
Even with an umbrella I got soaked!

That was a week of rain; then we had several hot days.
I hope you are staying dry if it is raining where you live. :-)


Thanks to all who stop by and visit.

  3. It's been a dry, but cool summer for us. Unusual here along the Texas Gulf Coast. Last week we happily got several days of rain.

    Your photos take me right into this rainy day and I like that.

    Here's my Saturday Snapshot, a visit to Blue Willow Books to hear children's picture book author and illustrator, John Rocco.
