...or "how to almost drown your camera"
The day before leaving on vacation to Istanbul the week before last, I decided to take my camera (the good one) sailing. After circling the boat with a little nutshell for a while, shooting away at the breakfast going on onboard and overcoming some other hassles we finally took off.
As you can see in the image below we had some nice wind and the boat was leaning to the side far enough to have water washing around the winch. We had so much fun that we didn't really notice the water entering the cabin for quite a while. Unfortunately my camera was stored in the cabin inside a non-waterproof bag.
Long story short: The camera wasn't doing anything all night and eventually started working again the morning I was flying out to Istanbul after a night of drying and praying ;)
Some of the shots turned out really nice though and next time I will surely be packing waterproof bags!
So enjoy the album.
