Before the Sun Disappears
"Perfect timing" is the wrong phrase. But there I was, waiting and waiting for the Sun to show all the while watching the rain showers creeping closer and closer on the radar. I put my camera bag in the car because I knew it would rain any second and was standing there with a camera, tripod and umbrella. Poof! There it is. Press the shutter and nothing happens. Dead battery. Yes, I can change the battery out before the Sun disappears. Nikon D7500 — Nikon 18-300mm F6.3 ED VR 300mm F8@1/6th ISO 400 Cropped DSB_8215.JPG ©Don Brown 2026
