I've had enough of waiting for the weather to clear up in order to go out with the camera. So when a friend was going to race her bike regardless of weather, I buttoned up with weather gear, donned an Optech rainsleeve on the camera and lens (before she recognised me, Gabster thought I was a strange man on the racecourse rubbing a plastic bag on my face), and prepared for the worse weather Canberra had to throw at me.
Unfortunately, everytime I take out the optech plasticbag for the camera, the clouds part and the sun comes out?! DAMN IT! I WANTED TORRENTIAL RAIN! Was really happy with the way the AF was performing, I think the red jacket really helped separate Gabby from the background. Used a bit of manual fill flash on some of the closer shots to light up the eyes under the visor, otherwise it was picking locations that placed the sun in the right place. My composition was woeful though, it looks like I was thinking "dead-centre-of-frame" was the new "rule of thirds".
