It Rained Today In Rochester!!
And what rain it was today in Rochester! I am always a person who is up for a great storm. Last night and today gave me my fix. It didn’t last as nearly as long as it should have but a simple taste put a smile on my face.
Now the golden rule for any budding photojournalist is to have a camera on them at ALL TIMES. I have a Nikon D7000 and a busted Tokina 12-24mm lens kicking around so I got out there and snapped a few photos in the East Ave/Winton Road area on my way to Record Archive after a quick stop at Beers of The World. I never did make it to the archive but I did wander around a bit, attempting to cross police lines (No permission was granted) and get as close as I could to the submerged vehicles without falling into the brown looking water.
A few folks that I did talk to were stranded and unable to get home, all in all it made for a note worthy couple of hours playing in the rain.
