Description
"Buckets of rain Buckets of tears Got all them buckets coming out of my ears Buckets of moonbeams in my hand You got all the love honey baby I can stand." ~ lyrics from Buckets Of Rain by Bob Dylan (Thanks LovelyPoetess)
I figured I'd stick with the previous theme and share a wider angle view from the other afternoon, near the end of the torrential rainstorm. It took the water in the area behind the loading bay at work about 2 hours to recede. Luckily, I had a high vantage point and some cover from which to photograph these scenes. Like snowflakes, no ripple patterns are ever the same in body of water during a natural rain shower. The randomness of the drops and other factors conspired to make the ripple interact differently every tip I released the shutter. Fortunately, the sun came of for a bit and gave things a bit more punch. What I like about an image like this is the contrast between the overall pattern of the scene and then the little things happening in various parts of it -- the bottom right corner for example. And yes, those are leaves, not fish, in the water. ;'] -----

Fascinating shot, Kort. I love to watch rain falling on water like this, and the lighting on this one is just excellent.
This wide shot would make an awesome texture for a 3D object, the leaves add another level ! ~Cheers~

Yes I love the added colors and beauty of the leaves. Makes me what to jump around in a puddle lol.
Nothing new to add on this subject matter. See my previous comments on your first capture vis-a-vis these water effects.
Greetings Kort, As previously mentioned it is something I would love to recreate but I am also looking at the use of materials since an exact representation would not convey the real enery, while alternative materials would be more interesting. Thank you for sharing. egmont
