October 20th - On The Drive Home

It's rained most of the night last night. We slept with the windows open, the lullabye of the tinkle-pitter-patter raindrops serenading us to sleep.
Today it rained almost non-stop. On my drive home from work, the sun broke through for just a little while.
I stopped and found a place to take a shot through the open window of the car before proceeding on my way.

The sky, of course, is stunning, but what stands out to me is the capture of the glinting of sun on the pavement and the hint of cars to the right.

Just beautiful! The dark pavement and sun's rays complement each other nicely.

It must have rained everywhere today! This is dramatic, and wonderful, Todd. Great light and mood.
