I couldn't get that kind of off-road picture on my travels without getting my feet wet :) Getting action shots requires have a companion who is either willing to drive, or willing to get out and take the picture. As I am both driver and photographer my shots are limited to views from the car, or the occasional stop by the road. I have taken some pictures of my tracks in mud, but they aren't anything exciting to look at.

I remembered some pictures of a faster stream crossing near Crested Butte a while back. Here's the thread on the Other forum:

EEEeeewwww, the other site...who wants to bet that thread gets more hits in 13 hours due to the link in this forum, than it has in the 13 months since its been posted over there?


Cool pictures by the way. We have scenic places here on Long Island, but certainly nothing of the caliber of which has been posted in recent times here.

Hey there! Great Pics!

Element does pretty well in small amounts of water, I have been impressed.


PEACE! :)

this might be a totally ignorant question but wouldn't you worry about water backing up through your exhaust pipe in that type of situation???
