Last night I went to Calebs Walk in Cootes Paradise (west end of Hamilton Ont.) to play with some light painting.  I had been there many times during the day but had always thought it would be a good spot for long exposure shots.

I set up, took some shots and was not wrong about it being a good location!

Unfortunately after these few shots, heavy rain and lightening started. Despite the weather saying a 30% chance of light rain before I left. I was just getting started but knew I had to get out of there, but light trails in the rain can be great too! So played with a few along the way home.
