The good old Greenfield - Got one very similar

Looks like you are going to get some pretty good results from that lens

like the streaking rain drops, portrays motion well.
what i don't get is how a FEW drops of rain stopped everything. LOL

Happy shooting with the new lens.. Are you bogged ?

I love playing in the rain, did a bit of that today while it was about
Only got about 10mm all day a small drop in the ocean to what you have been getting up there I bet..

We had to get the council out to repair the road below this as the water ran over the road instead of under.

You send some of it down our way. :D
Seriously tho it is pretty damaging what big amounts of rain in a short time can do. Hope your council is on the ball, I reckon if it was ours. you'd be waiting a while.

Feast or Famine in Queensland oh yes I know that feeling from living in Townsville for years.
We ended up getting 55 mm the past 24 hours here south of Brissie up till 6am when I emptied the rain gauge out.
Both tanks are full and I don't have to water the garden for a few days.. So I am very Happy.
