I took this in downtown last night, as me and about 150 others waited for our buses (and trains) home. Taken at 8th and O.

First time I've played with photography in the rain and with bad lighting. I think it came out wonderfully.

I love how you Americans drive on the wrong side of the road. It's all lefthand here, except when there are roadworks and one lefthand lane is diverted via the inner righthand lane......it's weird.....of course the driver controls are on the right side.

Yeah Capn, I drove a rental in England for a couple days. The steering wheel was on the wrong side of the car, and I always felt I was on the wrong side of the road. I guess being comfortable with that depends on where you 've lived your life. Good thing on English motorcycles you rode in the center. and gear shifters, and front and rear wheel brake activators, you got used to it real quick!

And round a bouts, I usually have to go round at least 4 times before I can figure out how to get off. And then have to go round the block to get on the street I wanted.
