It had been lightly raining, on and off, all day. I had tried to protect my camera as best I could, but condensation had begun to form on the lens and was causing problems with my photos!

Back at the mobile home, I had to take the lens hood off the camera and hope that the condensation had not caused any serious problems. After leaving it to slowly dry out, fortunately, the next day, my camera was back to normal!
