Photographing Subjects in the Rain.

Is the following statement true or false? Rain + Photography = Not a Great Combination. The answer is false.
Rain-Adds That Special Feel to Pictures.


Most people believe that for an ideal photo shoot, a clear day and nice bright light is a definite requirement. When the weather gets crazy people very easily lose their photography interest. Of all weather conditions, rain provides some of the best conditions for exploring your creative side of photography.
Rain brings out a completely different set of behaviour patterns in people. Therefore, photographing people in the rain makes for an excellent and interesting photo opportunity. Some hate it when it rains and other go crazy, so you've got a very lively bunch of subjects to shoot. Watching people through a camera in rain can bring out some of most interesting portraits that you've ever made!





All above images from my Olympus E-620 with Zuiko lens 70-300mm.
Most photographers do not feel comfortable in taking photographs in bad weather. Yet bad weather sometimes presents the perfect opportunity to get most out of our skills.
