Suggestions needed

The past couple weekends in TN have been rainy/cloudy all day with no sunlight. What are some recommendations for outside photos on such days? With the overcast skies, most photos turnout less than interesting.

custom WB, umbrella over the camera - you don't want to get it wet, flash perhaps, fast shutter speed to capture the rain drops and OPEN lens for light and bokeh.
Sounds interesting, I feel like going outside and trying that my self - who knows

Candids and street photography.

Cloudy skies(with no rain) actually make one of the best conditions for outdoor natural light portraiture.

You can make use of a blank sky to add a sense of stillness to a landscape - a feeling that a sky full of cumulus precludes. Conditions on an overcast day might also include some haze or mist, a great assist in establishing atmospheric perspective. See Snapshot #7 as a simple example:

Thanks all! inspiration on a cold wet day is sometimes lacking for me, but yet I feel as if an opportunity just passed by unnoticed.

A wet day means everything you have seen before is different now.
