Water, Water, everywhere!

You want to take pictures.

It's raining.

Or you're skiing.
or your snorkeling.
Or it's even a heavy fog.

Let's face it, wet environments and digital cameras don't mix too well, unless you happen to have one of the new waterproof cameras.

So what do you do when you want to take pictures but you don't want to ruin your camera?

well, in a pinch you could try a plastic bag. Cut a hole for the lens, look through the opening in the bag, and try to keep as much water as possible away from your camera.

It won't be perfect, but it will help. You'll need to check your camera out when you get back inside, and throughly dry it anyplace it got wet.

There are products available that will help keep your camera dry. There's a good article about waterproof camera housing here.

Choose your favored method, and don't let a little damp weather keep you from taking pictures!
