p.1 #1 · Light, Shadow...and Mud

I've been into mud lately. Not sure why

In the second image you can see where I sunk down into the mud at the right in the image. I was walking really slowly and I thought that I could get out just a little further. I was wrong. Sunk down a few feet and got off balance and fell foreword and got stuck.

My main concern was my 40D and 17-55 f2.8 that was around my neck and shoulders. It almost went in. It was so close. My tripod was not as lucky

It was kind of a struggle. I was hoping that nobody was watching, as I imagine that it was quite the sight

With the help of the tripod as a brace I finally got out and took some shots

Thanks for your thoughts and for looking,

Brian

Toss up between the first 2 for me, Brian. Excellent gloomy skies and light!

All very nice Brian...I had a similar adventure a few months ago...got bogged, literally, had to sit down on my a**e to dig out my feet as the most amazing sunset was unfolding. I thought the farmer was going to find me the next morning. Still got the shot, though, and worth everyone handful of mud!

These look a bit muddy to me Brian .....................

Only kidding!
I love the sinister atmosphere in the images, very interesting indeed.
Well done.

Good work with these Brian. I like the sky and the stream in the first. Love the light and texture on the surface of the water also.

I like the colours and moodiness in these a lot, and the dedication, trials and tribulations you went through to make them...

Hi
The first one is really great and a free mud bath, what could be better.

All are good. #2 has a really effective composition and a nice gloomy, dramatic feeling to it!
