Although like most photographers, I prefer to take pictures in full sun, just occasionally other conditions yield a good result. I have always wanted to try taking pictures in really heavy rain, but naturally I have never deliberately set out in such conditions just to get a picture! If I was already at a location when the weather took a turn for the worse, then that's a different story. This sudden torrential downpour at Heyford on 16 August 2001 was definitely worth recording. 165104 pulls out of the station with the 16:48 Paddington to Stratford-upon-Avon Thames Trains service, in monsoon conditions.
