TZ-Mwanza 06 (If Not For The Rain)

All Hail To The Rain - If not for the rain, it would be sunny, but then without the rain the flowers would die, the crops would fail, and as it is, when the rains don't come, people starve and die. All hail to the rain - I just love these intense storms with house shaking thunder and disco lightning.

 

This shot is taken from the house that Bert built. It is a guest cottage, and there is secure mosquito netting over the large windows, but no glass. So this storm feels very immediate to us, and invigorating. t was great to hang out with Bert and his family for a few weeks.

 

PS - The white spots on the picture are not from dirt or water on the lens, it from the rain being so heavy.
