How beautiful is the rain
After the dust and the heat
In the broad and fiery street
In the narrow lane
How beautiful is the rain!
.... Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
We've had a fair bit of rain this winter, continuing into spring.. long may it fall :) Happy weekend, take care and stay safe...
It does end up making for interesting and colourful shots, like this one.
ReplyDeleteAs long as you're not out in it!
We don't often see rainy shots from Perth, Grace!

ReplyDeleteNice colourful reflections. I didn't know you got rain in that part of the world :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend Grace!
I'm glad we're having dry days, but your photo is beautiful with all colours reflecting.
ReplyDeleteI have always loved how the lights at night reflect in a wet street. You did a great job with this shot. The colors and reflections are really special.

The lights really stand out in the photo. We too have had quite a wet winter. It has seemed to be a very long winter too.
ReplyDeleteNice to know that you have rain there too occasionally. The lights and reflections are superb.
ReplyDeleteIf only we had some of that up here. Thanks for the two-fer... nice photo and poetry to boot.
ReplyDeleteA super shot and poem too.
ReplyDeleteIt seems we have changed the climate with you, we have an every day sunshine September with high temperatures 26,5 C (78.8 F) and no rains!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more! It's a wonderful thing especially in places where the sun shines almost every day.
ReplyDeleteOh, Grace, I know chances aren´t big but I sososo hope for rain in Dec/Jan whilst we´re under the tinned roof of the cabin!
ReplyDeleteI so miss the sound, having had my room in my parent´s home under the roof, now living ground floor.
Nice photo Grace. A rainbow in the street.
