A backup picture taken with the backup camera

Rain in a Japanese Garden

It was pouring in this garden in central Japan, and I have all my "normal" gears tucked in the backpack when I was walking around, admiring the beautiful horticulture in this rare rainy fall day.  Umbrella in hand, I wasn't able to handle the normal heavy camera and lens combination, so I was shooting with a Canon G10.  I am a conformist, and thus I dare not touch the JPG file coming out of the camera.  For my usual RAW files, I definitely will "play around", never allowing any RAW file to go "as is" (duh, you're saying you used a RAW converter?).   So here it is, a direct JPG file coming out of the G10, shot in a downpour.  Yes, it is bad.  I know.  Dull. Uninspiring. The irony is my backpack was swarmed with water seeping through the zipper -- I might as well take the camera out of the bag and shoot with it in the rain.
