Purple Rain

328/365

 

I never meant to cause you any sorrow

I never meant to cause you any pain

I only wanted one time to see you laughing

I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain

 

Purple rain, purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain

I only wanted to see you bathing in the purple rain

 

I never wanted to be your weekend lover

I only wanted to be some kind of friend, hey

Baby, I could never steal you from another

It's such a shame our friendship had to end

 

Purple rain, purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain

 

I only wanted to see you underneath the purple rain

 

Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changin'

It's time we all reach out for something new, that means you too

You say you want a leader, but you can't seem to make up your mind

And I think you better close it and let me guide you to the purple rain

 

I had this idea for a while of taking an image with water falling from above but catching it in drops using the flash. I had wanted to try using a whole bucket of water for more impact, but the practicality of me doing this on my own was too much so out came the easily available shower head!

This was a real pain too as it was really hard to keep my eyes open as the water was warm and a little irritating, but i had to keep it warm as it is freezing today! On another note i have no idea why it says it was taken in january, my uploads today have been coming in only in half with the rest of the image just being half grey pixels, im hoping the moisture didnt get into the camera and cause problems, im gonna have to take a look and pray there's nothing wrong and this was just a blip. Fingers crossed.... :(
