I loved this too much to not enter. I had something that might’ve scored better, but this one spoke to me. I was at the foreshore, and it pelted down with rain, so I sat in the parked car and took a few photos of pedestrians walking by. I took a pretty cool one of some joggers.. I felt so sorry for them. I’m not sure if they knew the rain was coming, they probably did but didn’t care.

Congratulations! this gives me the feeling of Grey in a few ways, color, weather, and unhappy. I think you covered it here.

Way to go snapping up first place with this one. :-) This is the kind of seeing I love these challenges for. And I still think a rainy window is an awesome photo filter, when used this atmospherically.
