Rain Once Again

The rain we needed a month ago finally decided to make an arrival. We should have about three inches of it by the time it quits.

It seemed like a good opportunity to test out the weather sealing on my Canon EOS R5, so outside I went with it and my trusty 70-300 mm lens to work the water droplets.

I was getting soaked fast, so I didn’t stay out for long, but the smell of the rain was glorious. It also cannot be denied that we need any sort of moisture at this point after what I think is close to half a decade of severe drought in Southern Alberta. As long as it doesn’t rain on Saturday. Fingers crossed.

Images made using my Canon EOS R5 and my Canon 70-300mm EF IS USM f4-5.6 lens.
