More photos from my crazy photog buddy Kim Sallaway. Who I am going to have a longgggg heart to heart talk about how dangerous mud slides are. Just in case anyone out there is tempted to walk around on a slide DON'T! Kim is not even a trained professional, but he is certifiably insane. Falling trees are not the biggest danger, you can sink into quicksand mud that is impossible to get out of, or find yourself on islands in the middle of nowhwere... Just don't do it! Don't ask me how I know.

Wait til you read how the slide nearly ate Kim Sallaway on my new post. That man is a daredevil!
ReplyDeleteKim Sallaway got some incredible pictures. I hope that he gets some big money for them. He took a hell of a risk to get them, so next time you think that being a photographer is easy, just look at these photos!
ReplyDeleteI know that area well. There is a big spring up near the top of that slide.
ReplyDeleteDoes a big "you rock" count as money?

ReplyDeleteThe fact that people appreciate what other people do is probably the main motovation for existing.
Speaking of which, I want to say that I appreciate how much you and Kim have done in our recent emergencies. You not only avoided the commercials, you cut right to the news that everyboby wants to know.
