Rain, rain, give me rain!

Some people may hate rain, but I love rain for three reasons:
#1 One of the reasons that you can live
#2 Great too chill you after a hot summer
#3 Great to take lots of photos of it!

Thanks Lilley, I've used a Olympus E-500 camera, and settings was as follow:

Shutter: 1/160 sec
F.No: F8
Flash: On (auto flash)
Shooting mode: Macro

Try this yourself, and you too can get some good results!! :D

Cheers Theis

Thanks Doug :)
Yea, I guess that I have a talent for that, but maybe it's because I'm a little autistic ;D

Cool shots!  

Not exactly related, but water is so awesome.  On mythbusters they once popped a water ballon and filmed it on the high speed camera.  The ballon just pulled off of the water and a sphere of water was left sitting there for a second and then it splashed down.  Gotta love surface tension 8)

Wonderful shots Theis, different and just to let you know it is raining here again. ;)
We are having what we call in this area ("a wet summer").  It is great for the lakes, rivers and wells but our garden will soon need some sunshine. :)

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
