Before My Dip Several folks would like to know where I took my “dip” into Hyalite Creek. This image was captured just before the dip. I wanted to get a lower angle so I made my way to the edge of the water, stepped onto a couple of rocks in the stream, put my tripod into the water, and was about to hit the shutter when my right boot slipped. I went into a foot or so of water getting boots, socks, and pants wet up to my rear. Yeah, a good slip it was. Actually, it was my second slip into the creek. Three years ago, about the same time of year, I slipped into the creek, down stream a bit, attempting to do the same thing. For some odd reason, I have captured some of my best images while getting wet from water or snow.
