For many of us in the northeast, we had a fairly rainy weekend. This sends a lot of photographers to the indoors when this occurs. However, I find that this is where and when the opportunities present themselves. This is a time frame when I change up my gear and, for me, the the ideal equipment is my rugged Olympus TG-4 waterproof, crushproof & freezeproof camera. It has a very fast f2.o lens and allows me to shoot in RAW. All of the images were shot in the “Super Macro” mode.
On the morning of the 4th of July, we decided to brave the elements (pouring rain) and do a hike at the Trexler Nature Preserve in Schnecksville, PA. It consists of over 1,100 acres and was originally funded by General Harry Trexler. The area we hiked reminded me of Jurassic Park, hence the name of this post. I kept waiting for a Pterodactyl to come swooping down. Fortunately there were none.
Not to be stopped by some challenging weather. I went out this morning with the new waterproof Olympus TG-4. Here are some of the rain day images.
