Into The Rain in Shanghai

One day, I was in Shanghai, and it was pouring rain. I was standing in this spot next to Sephora for some shelter when I looked up and saw the light shining onto the rain that was coming down the building. I thought it looked pretty cool, so I tried to see if I could point my camera up into the sky without getting any drops on the lens. The building was directing the rain away from the walls, so I could snap a few without a single drop hitting my lens.

Shanghai Lights

Shanghai, China, is a pretty awesome place. I wasn't expecting it to be as cool as it was. The whole time I was there, I couldn't stop thinking about how it reminded me of Blade Runner. It was pouring rain the whole time, causing the wet streets to reflect all the neon Congee signs, which gave the look of Blade Runner cities.
