Paul Farris reshoots his 2010 Brisbane skyline panorama while sharing low light advice: manual modes, a tripod and ideally a remote. He covers aperture priority at f/11 and ISO 200, f/11 to f/16 for starbursts, a 30-second exposure blurring river and clouds, and horizons on the lower third.

Paul Farris starts at Brisbane's Kangaroo Point at sunset but retreats to the studio after poor light defeats the video. He recommends manual control and a tripod like the Manfrotto Pixi Evo or Joby Gorillapod, and demonstrates dialling shutter speed from 1/4000 down to tenths, seconds and beyond.

North Borders admits to cheating, dressing a friend as a Peaky Blinders character and directing him through a Melbourne downpour. Shooting a Sony A7R IV with Sigma 35mm, Sony 50mm and Sigma 105mm, he poses him under a bus stop and on tram tracks, tries slow shutters, catching lightning.

Frame & Flavor presents a narration-free point-of-view walk through the rainy streets of North York, Toronto, photographing with a Sony A7 IV and Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8. The footage moves between landmarks and lesser-seen corners, intended as a relaxing watch and encouragement to explore and photograph one's own city.

North Borders films rainy night street photography on a chest-mounted iPhone 14 Pro Max instead of a DJI Osmo. Starting on an 85mm, later a 16-35mm, he tracks subjects against car headlights, underexposes for highlights, photographs sleeping trams, and likens Toronto to home town Melbourne as rain intensifies.

Faizal Westcott records a point-of-view street photography session in the rain, shooting a Fujifilm X100V while a chest-mounted GoPro Hero 8 captures his movements and choices. The thirteen-minute walk, set to music, shows how he hunts for pictures on wet streets with the compact fixed-lens camera.

Adrien Sanguinetti shoots rainy Hiroshima streets one-handed, umbrella in the other, with a Sony A7IV and unsealed 85mm f/1.8. He resists easy f/1.8 bokeh, varies depth of field, shoots from a footbridge, and tries 1/25-second vertical sweeps of billboards for painterly blur, using back-button AF-On and a saved shutter-priority slot.

Evan Ranft narrates GoPro footage of rainy street photography in downtown Atlanta with a Nikon D810 and Sigma 35mm f/1.4. Drawn to reflections, umbrellas and moody light, he critiques each frame live, regretting not waiting for a figure to fill empty space, then shoots a cityscape on a 14-24mm.

Kebs Cayabyab shares rainy street tips, shooting aperture priority with a weather-sealed Fujifilm 50mm f/2 under an umbrella and slowing the shutter to lengthen raindrops. His tips: backlight rain against dark backgrounds, shoot through wet windows, use umbrellas for mystery, exploit storefront condensation, and focus on rain's distinctive elements.

Henry Turner walks the drizzly Langdale fells with five rainy landscape tips. He puts waterproofs, boots, hat and gloves first so motivation survives, protects a Nikon Z7 with a clear-backed rain cover, and argues flat light demands stronger composition, using a dry-stone wall foreground before misty Side Pike.
