I wanted to tie myself to the bottom of the mud pit by my genitals, so I could not get out. The rope is also held tight by the buoyancy of my body, so it is an intense predicament. It makes a terribly boring video. However, I did set up one camera, in case I could get some interesting stills from it, but the camera only recorded the first (most boring) part of the scene, because the battery was nearly dead. I guess I should have checked the battery level.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of my scene, my body was completely covered in mud and the light was really nice, so I was looking forward to grabbing some stills from the video camera, which had already turned itself off.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1789.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4232 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1789-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1789-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1789-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1789-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1789-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1789.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>Now here is the crazy part. Today, I re-enacted a shorter version of the same scene, at the same time of day, so I could get some still photos of my mud-covered body when I was done. I didn&#8217;t even bother with the video camera. I just set up a still camera to take a photo every 20 seconds for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4229\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1796.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4229\" class=\"wp-image-4229 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1796-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1796-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1796-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1796-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1796-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/DJT_1796.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4229\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">dramatic escape!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The photo at the top left shows one of my worse mosquito bites and how vulnerable I was while setting up.
