Rain on Russell Street

From the doorway of the McMenamin's White Eagle Tavern. Looking east ttowards the intersection with Albina Ave. 1: 50 PM.


My rule with iPhone photography generally is no enhancement to the original, except maybe a crop, but that should always be noted.

This rule makes one look for things that frame well in the phone display.Sometimes it is just momentary and fleeting, as one is holding the phone. Sometimes one holds the phone and waits for the just the right framing to appear. The sudden downpour gave me a chance to linger in the doorway here for a few minutes, without incurring any awkward curiosity from the staff inside. The barman even commented on it. "What a time to be heading out!"
