Through a rainy window . . .

Last week Chris and I were in a restaurant and the window next to our table was covered with raindrops. A house stood off in the distance, overlooking the coast. I took two photographs -- one of the raindrops on the window with the house completely blurred in the distance, and a second shot of just the house, as focused as I could make it. I then combined the two photos so that we can see the raindrops as well as the house. It's still soft, but that's what happens when we shoot through wet windows. It was an interesting experiment. And it also shows that it pays to have your camera with you as much as possible. ©Carol Leigh
