Rainy Shanghai

I was invited by Spring Airlines to Shanghai to find out My Shanghai Story along with a bunch of other bloggers.

It was cold and wet the entire time I was there; even the phrase ‘raining cats and dogs’ seems to be an understatement since it felt more like raining elephants and whales.
I also found it a challenge to photograph in the rain given that my Leica M-E is not weather-sealed; although I sometimes hope that a magical pixie lives in my camera to justify the price I paid for it…

Getting into the monochromatic feel, here is my first Shanghai Story of rain.

Wet and cold underground

The street looks even better in the rain
