Deep Mud Adventures
Warm February
This has been a very unusual February. I plan to visit my swamp this morning, but I’m not sure how much I’ll be able to do, as I injured my back a couple of weeks ago and I’m still in recovery. I have a new 4K video camera I want to take out, so I … Continue reading
Much Needed Adventure
I went paddling on Hunters Creek yesterday. That creek is where I did most of my early exploring back in the mid 90’s. I paddled past the sites of some of my early videos. If I hadn’t had a destination selected, I would have stopped at a few places along the way, just for old … Continue reading

I finally purchased the top you see me wearing, here, and discovered that the finish on the pants had been tarnished … Continue reading
The Crazy Things that Happen During a Shoot
I’ve had all kinds of things go wrong when I was shooting a mud video. I’ve setup cameras that more or less missed the action. I’ve had tripods shift so the camera pointed off into space. I’ve screwed up the focus and exposure. I missed some of the action, today, but the 2nd camera caught … Continue reading
