Solitary Figure in the Rain

More about Solitary Figure in the Rain

Close-up, high-angle, black and white photograph of rain streaks and water droplets on a window obscuring the view of the street at night. The raindrops vary in size and clarity, creating a textured surface across the entire frame. The streaks of water run vertically down the glass, while smaller, circular droplets cling to the surface. Through the distorted transparency of the wet glass, blurred out-of-focus lights appear as abstract, bright white shapes against a dark background, suggesting the presence of shop window lighting. Some of these blurred shapes resemble indistinct squares, rectangles or bars, while others are simply circular or ovular bokeh effects. The overall mood is moody and atmospheric, with a shallow depth of field emphasizing the rain on the glass. A solitary figure to the right is carrying an umbrella.
