 During a little rain, I got out with my camera to grab some shots. I don't do this often, and didn't realize how much movement is created by drops hitting leafs on other parts of the plant. This made it so I had to really bump up the ISO to ensure I didn't get any motion blur. Unfortunately, that means high noise on the 50D, which I can get rid of, but that of course reduces sharpness.
