As the calendar flips past Spring, we wanted to take a moment to share some stunning rainy shots. Trekking out into a downpour is not everyone’s idea of prime photography (although the aftermath is always a field day for macro shots). But some find a way to capture the moodiness of rain while it’s still falling, and often with a healthy side of bokeh. If you’re looking for even more atmospheric photos of inclement weather, check out the Rain in the city, Fog and Rain, and It’s Raining groups.
