Candlelight in the Rain

The power went out one night during a rainstorm, so I just sat and improvised while watching the flicker of the lights and listening to the rain outside....

Thanks guys! I actually don't improvise like this that often, where it's just sort of free form, in the moment. It was quite enjoyable =)

WOW! That is beautiful. I was dancing on the keys on top of your fingertips! Amazing, to say the least. Good thing it rains a lot there!
Come to my house so we can do a windstorm!
