A Cold Wet Start, a photo by Andy Farrer on Flickr.
My image is featured as a centre-spread in the August edition of Dorset Life magazine.
It was taken last year on a very cold and dreary September morning and really marked the end of Summer.
The Waverley paddle steamer is moored against Swanage Pier on the right of the shot.
It is often tempting to hear the rain of the roof while you are snuggled up in a nice warm bed and be glad of the excuse to lay in. Often the wet rocks or pavements can come to life and take on a whole new personality in or after the rain. "Slippery When Wet" was also taken right after a downpour and the wet planks on the Pier make for a very compelling image.
I plan to get out and shoot in the rain more often, and I am convinced will have plenty of opportunities in the coming months (or days!)
