N115A98x2-1 "Untitled" Tsisikama National Park, South Africa. December 1998. The thing about cold, wet, windy, rainy, nasty weather. Is that it's great for getting o.k. pics in coastal areas. Fog, mist, heavy surf, etc. Can combine for a nice composition. That kind of weather is also great for catching pneumonia. The trick when you're shooting in those conditions. Is to do it where you're in close proximity to someplace you can pop into for a mug of hot chocolate, and a bowl of hot oatmeal. That wasn't the case here. As soon as we were done clicking, we jumped back in the van, and shivered our way to where we could get a mug of hot chocolate, and bowl of oatmeal. We lucked out on the pneumonia though. Didn't get it. At least not on this trip.
