What Was the Weather Like? What Was the Lighting Like?

Rainy, overcast. It was outdoors, around 9:30 a.m. on a Thursday. No flash, all natural light, and the sky was a giant soft box. It was dark and cold and rainy. I jumped onto a cement block in the middle of the path and started shooting. I took about 10 shots before I was happy.

Why Is This One of Your Favorite Photos?

Because I had planned the photo in my head for a few weeks, but it hadn't rained, so when I woke up and saw it was raining, I got very excited. So I guess it was the anticipation.

What Did You Learn About Photography With This Photo?
