Mistyfall

Yesterday I got up early excepting to see some fog on two locations that i was planning to go. Unfortunately weather was not on my side and there wasn't any fog. I did some photos anyways but they were not what I wanted.
I went back to my car and while driving back home i noticed this waterfall. The rocks with its green colors were amazing ! as soon as i noticed it I knew i have to get good photo of it, this will bring me a photo that I will be able to share with you guys. But there was a problem how to get down to it, I could see it from the street but to get down to waterfall it was very steep and slippery. I still decided to go down it was very danegrous and i almost slipped into waterfall with my camera and when I made it, i really had no idea how i will get there but i managed to figure something out and once I took few photos i couldn't wait to get back to my car ! It was freezing and I had snow in my shoes. But after all I managed to get pretty good photo!
I don't recommend risking your life for photos but I love it when i get the adrenaline when i see something potential to make great photo so I just have to get it.

I would love to hear some of your craziest stories while trying to get photo !

And why mistyfall? Well if feels more like mist than water on the picture. It was hard to give a title this photo so i just made up something.

Beautiful photo! Somehow when a photo is a bit more risky to take or harder to get to it makes the photo that much better! :D
I can't think of a story at the moment. But there been plenty of times I've come home with my camera and I've been covered in mud and very wet from trying to get the perfect shot!

yes this happens everytime usually you have to go really low with camera so there is no way of not getting dirty while photographing.

Yep! I've ruined a few pairs of pants that way haha!

wow, just amazing photography

thank you !!

ive lost one of my shoes for this photo -)))

hmmmm, craziest? So I have severe acrophobia... me and my mate were standing next to London bridge back in 2011. A beautiful girl walk passed us onto the London bridge. I risked my life and went on to the bridge to take a picture of her secretly... I think it was dangerous and risky in every sense, because if I was caught, the girl would have kicked me into the river.

great story ! This stories are making my day, I should do this more often :D Do you have a picture of which this story stands behind?

good exposure! nice clarity.

Once i saw my tripod fall with camera and lens 24-70mm F2.8 into sea....

Thanks !

oh damn. that is sad story :D

I have too many to tell. As a self portrait artist I am always doing ridiculous and dangerous stuff. Just today I was climbing around on a big rock, trying to take a picture of myself, while tossing my hair around, and trying not to fall in the rapids...the fishermen were staring, haha, but that makes it so much more fun! !

I ended up sitting down because it was way too sketch standing up!

Very nice photo ! Sometimes taking a bit of risk really pays off plus you like that photo much more you know it took some effort :)

Once, I drained my battery while still trying to setup my shot for the Milky Way. Only left with 2-3 shots when the Milky Way starts to show up.

that sucks ! I usually shoot milkyway for couple of hours because it just gets better and better until clouds come

very silky and soft......amazing shot @weberh8. Sorry, I don't have a story for you...I've never slipped..yet :)

thank you so much ! No worries you will get them soon :D
