KEEP YOUR EQUIPMENT DRY

Photo by Susan Cyrus

If you’re shooting with a tripod, protect the camera with an umbrella or shoot beneath an overhang. If you’re shooting without a tripod, a large brimmed hat will deflect raindrops. You can buy a specifically designed nylon bag that has a hole for your lens to peek through, but thrifty shooters can fashion a similar item using a plastic bag or shower cap. Simply cut a hole for your lens and secure with a rubber band.
