You ever....you know...

...thought about the photographers out there whom dedicate years of their lives capturing unprecedented natural phenomenon for documentaries so that we can sit on the couch, be like.." Wow, that's cool" while spillin' snacks on our jammies? 馃

I admire great art. Photographers are artists, and if their work is on television, and elicits a "Wow!, then that is what they live for...and for the money of course...馃ぃ馃ぃ馃ぃ. Television usually pays well.

@4meAndyou Me too. It's those short segments where as the camera reveals themselves...what they are enduring, oftentimes dangerous environments so that I can see lions close up. Certainly..Wow! 馃槏

@Trippin The photographers who film volcanic eruptions and lava flows are even MORE insane.

@4meAndyou Boom!! Most definitely!! Sometimes loose track of the space between me and a screen VS them and molten earth!! 馃槷

@Trippin You can FEEL the heat. I watched one, once, where the photographer left the camera set up on a tripod, and the camera recorded what no human could have endured before falling into the lava.

@4meAndyou Very cool!!! In absence of those whom capture such, be it frogs, lions or eruptions... A descent percentage of the world would never glimpse it.
