On the rise

I had to hop rock to rock to get this perspective and was happy not to get my feet wet this time.

Just lovely, Matt.

For that image I wouldn't have minded you getting your feet wet, as long as camera and sensor came back intact.

Thanks for your support? I wouldn't have minded that much either and it happens right here sometimes. But it was pleasant that it did not. That melt water is cold!

Beautiful Matt. In fact, as Eric describes, I ruined my first digital K10D camera when I slipped and fell on moss covered rock, and came down with crash and thud. Knocked the lens right off the camera and landed on my shoulder. Ouch. It was either that or my head. Ironically, the lens still lives!!

Thanks. I've lost two cameras over the years to that kind of mishap. One was a tripod tip with my two week old K-1 (first full frame digital for me) which I got repaired but that camera was never quite the same after that and I eventually replaced it with the one I used here, the K-1 mkii.
The other one was a white camera body (but black lens) that I dropped in a ski crash on a steep mountainside after a 4 foot storm in a boulder field. Never saw it again.

BUT I have never dropped one in the river! (knocks on wood) I'm going to try and keep that trend going.

very well done. Excellent tone/colour management, and the water effect is very vivid and dynamic.
