Definitely rain, and the expression on the subject's face just makes me smile. :)

Good emotive shot. It's almost too soft, but that does help add to the feeling of it.

Great capture, and I love the expression on his face. The colors contrast nicely as well.

Great composition! You can almost feel the "joy" of splashing. My only nitpick is that the knees look a little plastic-y and colorless. There's just enough color to keep it from being bw, but not enough to look like the healthy child that it seems to be.

very nice macro. The colors complement/contrast each other nicely.

Rain Shadow

Interesting idea. I too tried a deck shot, but, alas, it just didn't look like rain (probably because it wasn't :) ).

I think if you had composed it so that the deck lines were running diagonally through the picture (more extremely than they are now), it would have been more interesting and dynamic. Also, the colors are kinda flat, maybe a conversion to sepia or bw would help.

Intensity

I really like the tonal range in this one. Good blacks without seeming "dark" because your lighter areas are well done as well. Congrats on the lightning capture -- hope you got out safely. :) Very nice shot.

I like the minimalist feel and the contrast of the yellow light and the blue cloudy sky.

Brewing a Storm at 14,000 Feet

This shot is rather intimidating feeling. The men, who are obviously not tiny little runts, are being dwarfed and overcome by nature. Though not exactly "rain" (my opinion, obviously), definitely gives the idea that it has either just rained, or these guys are going to get wet in the very near future.

Good exposure as well.
