Random question of the day! :woohoo:


When it's raining out, will you, HAVE YOU, ever gone out to take photos?

Oh yes and I love it!

Not unless I have something in mind already.

I'm a bit of a wimp- some teddy bears just don't like to get wet outdoors  :)

I've gone out on my porch and shot while it was raining, and there have been times that I have gotten caught in the rain while shooting.  But I don't deliberately grab my camera when it starts to rain.

At supper with my daughter, I said:
"It is when all get sheltered in that its time to go out and
take pictures no other will have!"

She replied:
"…pictures showing why they were right to stay home?"

I would love to be able to exit the home or car and shoot image while in the rain. Sadly unless I purchase a weather sealed camera, this will never happen. However, if I'm sheltered from the rain.. covered alley etc I may explore this options even more. But still some of the risks are to great in damaging my camera and myself.
