(Sorry, I lost his post so cannot quote directly) I can understand his concern... for unlike snow, rain is very difficult- no, almost impossible - to portray on film. The droplets are too tiny, too fast, and unless the light is at the absolutely perfect angle, it virtually disappears in our shots. No wonder so many folks try to shoot rain by showing the reflections in puddles, rain drops on flowers and the like. About two weeks ago, in Costa Rica, I got lucky. Mark. You want rain?
