When it rains...

Fun facts about this photo:

1. I didn't have an umbrella either. Thank god the D300 is waterproof - or so I keep telling myself.

2. That taxi on the right really should have its lights on. Tsk tsk. (Edit: You're right, I think it's parked).

3. I have no clue who the woman in the photo is, but I love the way her cap matches the yellow of the taxis.

Good use of telephoto. One thing I don't miss about NY are the sudden torrential downpours (and being caught unprepared).

It's good for you that your D300 is waterproof. If I were you I should throw out my camera.
I wish we had a little rain here to to fresh the hot weather.
