Wonderful shot, I really like the composition. The BW conversion is first rate.

Very Nice, she doesn't look upset about the rain at all. Well composed and presented.
Thanks for sharing this
Michael.

Great shot. She's calmer than I would be in that mess.

Great shot, as mentioned already, lighting (or lightning?) and composition are great. The model is certainly not fussed about getting a little wet*. Speaking of getting wet, how did you keep your camera dry?

Thanks for sharing and welcome to DPS.

I agree with the others on how great the composition is.
The rain is coming down so hard that above street level it resembles snow falling.

A great photograph!
