Rain bricks

People walk over bricks laid along the floor of this pedestrian bridge in Ikosi after the rains poured all night during the weekend. It is a bit of a balancing act as people try to avoid soiling their shoes during the early morning rush. Long queues usually form as pedestrians take turns to make it across the little pond formed on the bridge.

Four men under one umbrella

It's been raining heavily in Lagos during the last couple of days. I saw these four men sharing one umbrella when the showers toned down a little.

Dark clouds

Every morning here in Lagos we get dark clouds these days. Sometimes it pours, other times it just clears off. But today it's been pouring like the heavens are ready to empty their reserves. Funny enough, I learnt that it's been very hot in neighbouring Ghana. I wish the sunny days will come back again.

Umbrellas

It has been raining here all day and suddenly the umbrellas have been removed from their hiding place. I found these ones at the entrance of an office near where I work. I admit this is not a very good picture but as the rains continue pouring I'm sure to catch a better representation.
