Rain

I spent the day moving boxes from our current home to the new place. While I did the heavens burst and it rained and rained and rained some more.
The sound of the rain has been a constant backing track today. Sometimes just a light smattering other times hitting so hard you had to check it wasn't hail.
I got half way home, the old home that is, during one of the heavy downpours when I realised that the street lights and the car head lights reflecting on the road with the rain bouncing and ripples in the puddles would make a great blip photo. I got wet trying to capture it, then I got cold and miserable realising I was never going to capture it. I sat in the car looking at the rain hit the windscreen and how the light shone through the drops and I took a picture of that instead!
The moral of this story is know your limits and change your goals sccordingly!!
