Rain, Rain, Rain

Rain, rain, rain.The start of this summer has been “amazing”. It’s been raining for weeks now and it just keeps going. Next week weather forecast looks even worse. This is really strange and really atypical for New York.

Summer Sunshower

Sunshower — Слепой ДождикIt was a nice, cool and sunny day. Than it decided to rain. Hard. However the sun didn’t disappear.

There is a term in Russian for it — “слепой дождик” which literally means “blind rain”. Turns out there is a term for it in English too — “sunshower”. I never heard it before. Also turns out there is a whole article on Wikipedia about it.

Random Ramblings

Get out of my way, I do not care where my brake pedal is.Yesterday we drove out to Floyd Bennett Field to give Alena some driving lessons. She’s got her Learner’s Permit this Monday.

Get out of my way, I do not know where my brake pedal is.Just two random photos from the series. “Get out of my way, I don’t care to know where my brake pedal is.” And “Get out of my way, I don’t know where my brake pedal is.”

Then it started raining. And it keeps taking breaks and then resuming again. And it keeps going still. I want to publish a photo, but there is already one posted that represents the mood just right.

New York for Obama t-shirt.And on a different topic we ordered a pair of Obama t-shirts with Alena. The site advised to get one size bigger then you normally get and while that works fine for me it was a mistake for Alena. We’ll see if it shrinks after a wash.

P.S. Yes, I know. Car wash. Must take car to.

Rainy Day

Rainy spring day.Here’s another photograph from my favorite series it seems.

It’s been a rainy day, but unlike usually rainy days this one doesn’t seem too depressing. I guess it’s because all the trees are finally turning green and there is spring in the air after a long gray winter.

The photo is an HDR composed of 3 images. The bright white circles that are visible in some portions of the picture are drops of rain.

Raining

Rainy NightIt’s been raining all evening yesterday, then it rained all night, and it’s still raining today. The streets look so unwelcoming today that you just want to stay inside and only glance at it from behind the closed windows covered in rain drops.

But then again, in order to appreciate the sun and blue skies you probably do need to have days like these.

The picture to the left is another HDR completed from a single shot taken in RAW format.
