Not just photos to save for a rainy day but to take on a rainy day. I'm refreshed to my very core!

Thx FoG, pretty sure I'm springing for one at some point, but I'm really happy with what I have, it seems very versatile and supports our learning .. on the other hand I know there's a quantum leap in quality to be had with DSLR, and I kick myself for not getting the sx1 with raw .. my camera store offers guaranteed 50% of original paid twds trade up .. so ... maybe

What a brilliant set of pictures Ian. The water drops are so sharp too, and the colours art stunning. You sure made the most of the rain. Nice work as usual Ian.

Dave.
