Very cool !

Isn't it just nice to be in the right place at the right time and
to be able to execute your skills and capture the moment.

Cheers

cheers! I also haven't seen it rain so hard in a long time, the drains on george st were literaly full and the water was flushing out rather than in.

a quick 180'deg turn does the trick ;) with all this rain, It'd be nice to get some form of camera protection bag while taking shots in wet weather. The D70 has proved itself quite resistant so far :p

We're waiting on a couple of "overcoats" for the camreas from Optech - the people who make our D7Users.com wrist and neckstraps.

Birddog, what's the status on those?

Tops, I'm surprised you weren't soaked to the skin (maybe you were?)
