This was my first time shooting fireworks in the rain. Thanks to the weatherproof function of my camera and lenses, I had no hesitation to reveal camera gadgets in the rain but the biggest problem arises when the lens glass surface gets wet by raindrops....
All round bokeh (=blur) resulted from raindrops on the lens surface, grrrrr.
The ceremony was solemn and went on regardless of rain.
The photo below shows how heavy the rain was during the ceremony.
At last, I would like to share a crazy video demonstrating the reliability of the weatherproof function of my camera, Olympus OM-D EM-5!!!
