Dry season, just before the rain.

Night Rain

I had to stay later than usual at work/school because we had a parent-teacher evening. It was pouring, and as I like both the rain and the night, I thought I would take a picture. It was a very quiet moment; the temperature was just right. It was perfect.

Fire

These days, people started burning papers and stuff on their balcony... I don't know exactly why, I suspect a Buddhist festival but didn't find anything concrete. Last night, at around 2 am, I saw this guy burning stuff in two big piles on a balcony that is otherwise closed by a gate... It looked like some sort of mafia thing, it weirded me out...

Monsoon Fashion

It rained a lot today, so I finally got out my new raincoat that is super light and super transparent.

Wet Wall

Wall getting wet as the rain falls on it... this has been under construction since we arrived 5 months ago. Lots of work has been done already, but it doesn't seem to have an end...

Tuk-tuk Window

It was raining this morning when we went to work. The tuk-tuk we rode had the sides down and little windows. It was fun.

Watering the Plants

Thank you monsoon.

Jumping for Monsoon

After it's been this hot and humid, when it starts raining, you really feel like jumping. You do. Plus, I love rain.
It was raining when I took this, although it doesn't really show unless you look up close. My head is cut off, but it's probably better that way.

Tropical Rain

It rained heavily as I was at the restaurant. The terrace was shaded, but even then, it was raining so hard and it was so windy, I started feeling a few drops on me. The table you see was wet and people were hiding in tuk-tuks.
Ah, monsoon.
The widescreen setting was an accident, but I actually like it.

Rain B&W

The little sister of Rain. I almost took the exact same picture. I must have used the same setup unconsciously.

Rain

It rarely rains during the day, and usually it lasts two minutes (seriously). This time, I managed to catch it.

Impressionistic

Unbeknownst to me, my two pictures today reflect the Daily Shoot assignment for today.
This was taken under the rain. I loved the glistening on the cobbles, the lights, the dark, the motion too.

Rain of Light

Those lights flash and it looks like it's raining light in the trees. A beautiful sight.
