Another Crazy Wildlife Photographer

Seems an unnamed Canadian wildlife photographer decided to spend the winter by himself in the wilderness, but didn’t bring enough food to last until spring:

A wildlife photographer who planned to spend the winter living in a remote trailer in the wilderness of northeastern B.C. narrowly escaped starving to death after he failed to pack enough provisions.

Hudson’s Hope RCMP say the 42-year-old man was trapped for more than two weeks without food in the Carbon Creek area near Williston Lake.

Police and rescue volunteers found the hungry man on Feb. 1, about 36 kilometres from the W.A.C. Bennett Dam, according to Hudson’s Hope RCMP Cpl. Darren Woroshelo.

“He’d misjudged the amount of provisions he’d need to make it through the winter. He’d been without food for, I believe, 17 days,” said Woroshelo.

I’m not sure who is crazier, this guy or the African photographer I blogged about earlier who caught three tropical diseases and risked being eaten by lions while immersing himself in a waterhole to photograph drinking animals. Outdoor photographers can be a odd bunch, but, wow.

Yeah, that’s a little close to home.

Taking Things Too Seriously

I have been working very hard lately both on my blog and in my “real” job. These images are a reminder to myself that perhaps I shouldn’t take my photography (or anything else, for that matter) that seriously.

The first image is not what it seems. This marmot is scratching, though he looks a bit like a martial artist:

This Giraffe, on the other hand, is doing exactly what it looks like. Namely, sticking his tongue up his nose:

Marie, you may now officially adopt the Marmot as your mascot . . .

You Suck at Photoshop

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. Busy editing images from Bosque (and, unfortunately, working. Gotta pay for gear somehow). As a time filler until I post some more Bosque images, here is a series of informative and funny, but also sophmoric, crude, and probably offensive and NSFW Photoshop tutorials entitled “You Suck at Photoshop. Here’s the first one, with links to others below:

This is the first selection from Season 1; Season 2 is also available.

I clearly need to get out more, but this YouTube video is the funniest thing I’ve seen in quite a while:

I enjoy the What The Duck on-line cartoon. But sometimes it hits a little close to home:
