I did. Not with this particular photo, though. I took it manatee-swimming in a DiCaPac diving bag - and it leaked. I now no longer officially recommend DiCaPacs!

(Although, to be fair, I probably messed up the sealing locks. There were manatees, everybody was a bit frantic, and I got handed a malfunctioning snorkel kit. It was a mess)

Bud, how did you get that shot?! It looks like you put your life at stake!

I guess it could be a zoo shot, but zoo animals don't usually do attack displays like that?

Venomous snakes are SCARY. When we visited Texas some years ago, I was constantly running in front of the kids hitting the ground with a stick... which probably looked funny. But, you know, diamondbacks!

I was going to ask ... as the French would say, "Merde!"

This is an amazing photo. The timing, the DOF, the clarity, just perfect!

And, while here, H for home

I think that is pretty much what I said. In Danish. And possibly a few more languages too...

Right then, I for Ice Cream again - because there is no such thing as too much ice cream!

Rats ... beaten out by rACER ! OK, what was run over ... Enquiring minds want to know.

I was at the Loves near Tonkawa, getting fuel for Monstro, chatting with another driver when I hear this giant BOOM! Seems the dope driving the truck in the photo wasn't paying attention to the 55 foot long trailer behind his tractor, and he ran over the concrete pier put in place to keep morons like him from tearing out the fuel pumps.

And now N is for Night. As in the Darkest Hour Is Just Before The Dawn.
