Hey Richard! This is one of the bets photos I have ever seen. Feels like the raindrops are going to land on my face with a splash.

Ruins it? Nah, it’s part of the scene. I went back and changed it so it’s a bit less annoying, and using my new short URL, so take a look now. It’s not actually a watermark, because I give away everything as a stock resource, including Raindrops. Just personal branding.

The look of the drops is what struck me right away on my LCD screen; a lot of the photos had mangled and ugly droplets, but not this one. This is really where black and white shines. Thanks for the feedback.

I find this photo very interesting because of the way the drops of water are. The B&W adds a great mood to the photo.
I must say that the watermark does ruin the photo, IMO, but I understand why people do so and it’s still a great shot.
