Heading out into the rain hoping to find a few scenes to paint I got to the Concordia downtown area where there are a few overhangs for shelter. This scene is looking west on Maisonneuve at the corner with Guy. What it rains the sidewalk reflects the people and background elements.

Looking east now, at the corner of Bishops and Maisonneuve, the fire hydrant was reflecting in the wet sidewalk as rain came down in drizzles. The side of the car had streaks of rain on it, and the people in the background held umbrellas.

Up on Bishops a fancy sports car went by, it looked like a Lamborghini, but naturally it went by too fast to get all the details correct. The restaurant in the background was casting light-reflections on the wet road. At this point I wimped out and headed home, it was a cool and soggy day for sure.
