I just noticed how some of my best street shots have come during rain or fog. There’s something about the mood and the way people behave that just adds an extra layer to the image. What are your experiences shooting in less-than-ideal conditions?
Shooting in rain does create a unique atmosphere — it’s like the world gets a fresh coat of paint! I’ve found that focusing on reflections can really bring the scene to life. Ever tried capturing puddles in motion?
Absolutely, the mood shift can be incredible… I love shooting in fog — it softens everything and creates depth. The key is to keep your lens clear; a quick wipe can make all the difference.
I totally get what you mean about the atmosphere; there’s something magical about fog that softens everything — , it drives me nuts when my lens fogs up, though! Have you ever tried using a lens hood to lessen that?
I hear you! There’s something captivating about how people move differently in bad weather. I’ve found that a good umbrella can make all the difference — keeps the gear dry and lets you focus on those reflections.
