Raindrops Keep Falling on my Lens



Let's be honest - sometimes it seems like Mother Nature hates photographers. You'll plan your shooting day, wake up when some people are just getting to bed, and chug your cappuccino only to step outside and realize that your day of crystal clear skies and immaculate lighting has been fogged by...well, fog. And rain, and lightning, and anything else that bitch can throw at you. (Is it okay to say 'bitch' in a blog?)

Anyway, I say think positive! I know shooting on a cloudy day is typically considered snapshot-suicide, but some of the best photographs have been taken under the worst conditions. True art breaks barriers and questions convention, so don't be afraid to get wet - the water's just fine!
