Portraits Of Boston: Rain!

“I just made this hat today. You know, people always talk about the weather, and it’s kind of an obvious thing. I hate talking about the weather. I figured this way I don’t have to say anything because I come in already acknowledging it. People walk into a building out of the rain and they’re like, ‘It’s raining.’ Yeah, we all know. It happens. It’s gonna keep happening — hopefully — or else you’re dead.”

Portraits of Boston is a project of independent photographer Ivan Velinov. He is regularly sharing some of his favorite portraits with WBUR. Visit his website to see the hundreds of portraits he has taken on the streets of Boston.
