📍 Cardinham Woods

If you've been following my page, you'll have read that my trusty Canon 6D was in for repair. Well, it's dead! The "weather sealed" camera was irreparably moisture damaged! I should have learned my lesson when the kit lens suffered the same fate last year, but I've always said that my camera was to be used and not to be kept at home in the dry! 

So, I need a new camera. And I decided to move away from DSLR towards the newer mirrorless technology. I have a used Canon R5 on the way! I opted to buy used for two reasons... it saved me £1000 off the new price, and because it's more environmentally friendly to buy used. But mainly because it saved me £1000! 

With my 6D out of action, I dug out my long retired 700D and originally headed to Cardinham Woods. I've shot this scene before in autumn rain. Here it is in summer... erm... rain! The old 700 took a good picture to be fair, although the light wasn't much of a challenge. But... as it's not weather sealed, it did temporarily stop work. 

I guess the moral of the story is - don't ever lend me your camera!
