Raleigh in the rain!

Perhaps inspired by the paintings of San Francisco artist Po Pin Lin, I headed downtown to capture the wet streets of Raleigh.  It was really a downpour and I shot until my camera started becoming temperamental.  As much as we try to stay out of the rain, there is so much more to see when one braves the elements.  Anyone can photograph on a sunny day...most choose to stay home when it's not.
