Lesson learned yesterday! Never assume that the weather is going to be nice at your destination if it's nice at your point of departure. It absolutely chucked it down yesterday from 1-30pm, and I had no wet weather gear at all with me. By some kind of miracle, it stopped at 2 minutes to kick off time, so I avoided a soaking, but it'll make me be more ready next week! :)

It was still overcast all day, but a good match to try a few suggestion on here this week with regard to metering and modes. All shot in manual with a constant aperture of f3.2, shutter speeds ranging from 1/800 to 1/3200 @ 400ISO.

Very nice stuff. Bad weather... sunshine and sausage baps for me yesterday! But it made up for risking my life on Wednesday in the lightning. When I got home from that game I quickly order aqua-tech rain gear and a rain jacket.

Aqua tech stuff is expensive but it is worth every penny.
