Bird in the rain

Shot with an Olympus E-510 which I've gotten wet a few times without problems.

Wonderful compsition in my eyes - and cool to see some of the falling rain drops.

Repeat of my earlier comments... Great shot, lovely exposure, nice composition, etc., etc.

Com'on, Michael, surely you have one crappy shot you can post so you can make the rest of us feel less inadequate ;) - Just kidding... seriously... another winner. I hope you are printing these and hanging them on the wall or something. Every one I've seen is well worth a frame and should be shared with more than just our little group. You should consider a birding coffee table book or something.

At what shutter speed is this one ?

1/500 sec:)

It's just a real pretty shot; the colors, the lines, the rain, and the pretty little bird. It reminds me of a Japanese painting.

Beautiful shot. The little guy just seems to pop out of the background. Other than that, there is not much more I can add to what everyone else has said.
