Peace In The Margins

Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby.

Langston Hughes

Night photos in the rain…this is what I call peace. As I continue to grow in this field, I find myself reading more professional blogs. Several have said to throw aside any fear of getting out in the rain because that is where you could find some of the best photos of your career. Well, they are the professionals.

I just loved the look of this sidewalk, and when the lovely couple happened upon my shoot, I let them join in. It turned out to be a sweet and totally candid moment, and I was happy God allowed me witness it.

Shot with a Nikon D700 and a 50mm/1.4 lens. ISO 2500; 1/30; f1.8. A little Lightroom tweaking once I switched to B&W.
