Hi Hon. You're very brave, i've been out in those streets after dark in teeming rain with just a short skirt and hi heels, it's no fun even with an umbrella!. Liked it though. Tell you what, when you're warmed up and brave enough to go back, why not do the same idea but round Whitechapel and the East End. Now i know that area too and after dark even in dry weather, i always got an uneasy feeling. Good luck!

Growing up in the south west of the UK this kind of weather evokes many memories for me. It makes me remember things like waking up early for school on miserable monday mornings in the dead of winter. Stepping out of my front door and that splash of sideways rain hits you and you feel the cold snap at your extremities. Walking to school it would still almost feel dark because the low rainclouds and the mist would often block out the rising sun so it looked like somebody shining a torch way off in the distance. I used to feel like I was living inside a cloud sometimes. Even back then as a kid I always felt there was a vague melancholy beauty to it. It was like ghosts made of weather swirlling around me.

These night time rain videos are so artistic!!👏 They always make me think of Leonid Afremov's paintings of rainy streets. It's funny, because when we're walking in the rain, we don't really don't appreciate the experience and umbrellas are essential, but looking at rain in a video, art, or photography it's truly beautiful... and of course the sound is awesome. If we were birds, it would be a case of finding shelter, or even worse, an insect... it could well be the end!!😅 Life is so strange! Thanks for another beautiful rainy walk!😍

Thank you so much Suzy, I do try to lean into the more artistic aspect with these nighttime ambience walks, so I'm pleased you enjoy it and the beautiful reflections!

This is literally everything to me! 🙌🏼🙌🏼The storm, the wind, the sound, the lights reflecting on the streets and especially all the blue light hues! Love how this video has the cool tones! Thank you for doing these walks for us! More blue light hues and cool tone vids please. Hope you’ve managed to keep your feet dry in this walk.

I always enjoy watching rain and/or night footage. I think it because of the sound and lights. Especially when it is raining. The reflection makes the night look even better. Thank you for sharing.

My feet feel wet just watching this. Great video! ☔ I'm from Southend, and have spent so much of my life in London and know those streets so well. 💙 Can't believe how much of the old city is disappearing behind those massive hoardings. I can't imagine how you keep that dry in such torrential rain, but I've loved this video. ☔🌨

Thank you Sue, and I didn't keep dry but did manage to keep the camera mostly dry - which was the important thing! 😀

I hope this is not off topic, but I call reflections in puddles "Thomas Kinkade Puddles" because I noticed that his paintings had reflections in the water puddles. His attention to detail was excellent.

Evening mate and thanks for sharing another London Rainy walking tour on a beautiful late night here! Great seeing Piccadilly Circus, Mayfair, Covent Garden, and many other places look so quiet without any tourists during this hour here! Cheers for the journey here and stay safe mate! 😀👍🇬🇧☔

It’s cold and raining here. I’m snuggled in my warm blanket but can’t hear the rain. Watching you videos on my iPad , right before sleep, gives me that comfort, cozy feeling and helps me fall asleep 😴 faster. Thank you for going out there and filming this💕.

Beautiful lighting and reflections, this surely is the art of night walking. Big thanks for getting out there in the heavy rain at 4am! Think we can hear your soaked boots or shoes sloshing by Wardour Street.

When you finally reached the Covent Garden area, I immediately thought: "Oh, Eliza Doolittle can show up at any time and start singing All I want is a room somewhere, far away from the cold night air!" Greetings from sunny (and sometimes rainy too, and, believe me, even snowy) Brazil!

Recently by watching your beautiful videos, I felt a pleasure has returned, a simple quite walking through the streets is magic. London is much more seduisante through your eyes, especially after almost 27 years of my absence, she seems getting younger and more dynamic, or may be it's just of you. Bravo and many thanks!
