Rain fell on the parade. Used a four-year-old backup camera and a used lens, went outdoors, sat in the rain and took pictures. The rain didn't delay or stop the parade, and it didn't stop these pictures. Sometimes, you need to confront adverse conditions to get something done.

I've been working on a cookbook of my favorite recipes that I will publish and give to my kids and grandkids, but I often forget to take photos and that is the biggest impediment to the process. My oldest two grandkids are 12 and 14 and pretty good photographers and much better cooks than I. I'm now inspired on any given rainy day, to make one of the recipes with them and photograph it together. It would be fun to have pics of them preparing MY recipes, or having them photograph me, as I am never in front of the camera, always behind. Thanks for the inspiration! Sue Cassidy

The only stupid question is the one that goes unasked - Photographers shoot to thrill, not to kill
