Description
This is just one of a succession of pools and waterfalls in a massive gully in Fintry B.C. It was a real challenge bringing my camera here without getting it wet. At one point I slipped and fell into the water but managed to keep my arm that was holding the camera out of the water. It was kind of like when you fall down drunk but manage to save your drink.

That looks refreshing! But are you sure it's safe enough for head-jumping there? :O (yep, I know the 'save that cam/drink' reaction - saved mine a couple of times, too :D )

LOL, sound familiar this saving the object but not the face :) It was worth the act, stunning shot.

The comparison of the camera with a drink is superb, luckily I have experienced none of them :) About the photo is very refreshing and seems a wonderful place, I would like to be here. Beautiful colors, light and photo.

Its a natural instinct for a photographer i think to throw the arm holding the camera up when its in danger of hitting the water, i do it, i tread very, very carefully now. as for this pic, u caught the dive with perfection, a refreshing shot, well done:)
