Yesterday I went downtown to shoot at Taste of Chicago, the big summer food festival in the park, but I ended up spending the evening waiting under tents or scaffolding for the rain to subside. I covered my camera in a lens cloth and took it out in the drizzle for a few shots, but my shooting agenda was pretty much foiled by the elements. It was an interesting scene, with people going about their eating in the rain and trying to have fun regardless of the soaking. But the last thing I want to do is test my digital camera’s tolerance for wetness. If there’s ever a perfect camera it will be waterproof. Taste of Chicago goes on for another week…surely at least one of those days will be camera-friendly enough to attempt to make a masterpiece.
