Out and about, how do you protect yourself?

May 2, 2010

I've been wanting to do more photography, especially nature related (meaning secluded areas possibly). As I will be going out alone most of the time, I was doing some research to see what ways I could better protect myself for any bad situations that could happen. How do you guys protect yourself when doing photography "out in the wild" (either in nature or more urban settings)?
