Never let it be said that I'm incapable of getting dirty or rising to a challenge!!! Dirty enough for you Myles??? This is a VERY rare self portrait (sort of) taken on a spa day and you won't see another for a very long time if ever ! Crappy photo and a joke---no invites please :-))). Myles said he wanted to see if I could get "dirty" and I had to prove I could:-))
UPDATE---Myles met the challenge and definitely trumped me!! For those who are interested or brave enough to check it out :-))). www.flickr.com/photos/mylessmith/2407523797/
Further UPDATE---Zoe got into the mud fight too:-))). We may start a group just for mud shots:-)) Feel free to join in and post your mud shots. www.flickr.com/photos/zcn/2411349226/
I am just happy to have started this madness but will NOT go to the lengths either of them did LOL.
Unfortunately, those photos are only available to friends. They didn't want the whole flickr world to see their muddy nakedness.

#1 interestingness for January 26, 2005
shot in february 2003, in front of ck's place (sugarbooger). we had spent a long time in the park so she was getting pretty tired and defintiely hungry, hence the docile look (she can be a bit crazed at times).
this pic is by far the most popular in my photostream and i thank all of you who have commented and fav'd it. this pic is in great company and that means a lot to me. this has always been my favortie photo not just for the photography, but the subject is just all around cool.
as fubuki once said.. viva muddy!
The mud pot that I created for the mud-dauber wasps in our Sicilian holiday garden, has also attracted the smaller species. I'm assuming that this is Sceliphron curvatum again. They are fascinating to watch. I so wish I could find their nests too!
Great Salt Lake mud flats created by the receding water of the shallow lake. Taken from Antelope Island.

The last of the volcanoes series...
Mud volcanoes appear mostly when gas pockets or gas deposits associated with oil manage to seep to the surface, transporting water mixed with solid material (mud, made mainly of clay and sand). Of course, these volcanoes are not hot at all, on the contrary, they can have temperatures that almost reach the freezing point. Their relief stands for 2-3 years, compared to tens of thousands of years in the case of the real volcanoes.
Still, the largest mud volcanoes have a diameter of 10 km (6 mi) and are 700 meters (2,300 ft) tall. But most of them have surfaces of tens of square meters to several hectares.
About 1,100 mud volcanoes have been detected on land (700) and in shallow water, but there may be much more than 10,000 on continental slopes and abyssal plains.
In Europe, mud volcanoes are found on the Kerch Peninsula (southeastern Ukraine) and northern Apennines and Sicily (Italy). Easily accessible are the mud volcanoes of Berca (Buzau, Romania) close to the Carpathians.
300 out of the world's 700 known mud volcanoes are located in Eastern Azerbaijan and the shores of the Caspian Sea. A 2001 eruption 15 kilometers (9 mi) from Baku spewed flames which were 15 m (45 ft) tall.
Mud volcanoes are also found in the mountains between Iran and Pakistan, China's western Uyghur province, Arakan Coast (Myanmar) and nearby Andaman islands and South Taiwan.

Here in Ottawa ontario Canada, we are lucky to have such an amazing place. Its a wildlife conservation area in the middle of the city. Its my place to take great shots and recharge within nature.
Another shot of the Mud Men in Horseshoe Canyon.
These glyphs are painted along a high overhanging canyon. Many are covered due to rockfall.
Canyonlands National Park.
This may have been the most full I've ever seen this feature, probably because of the major rains the week before.
It's not a volcano, by the way, just a mud pot - a hot spring with dissolved solids in it.

Cape buffalo, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda.
We surprised this guy in the middle of a bath. He was not overly thrilled by our arrival.

Abused & Abandoned Jungle Dogs.
Just like kids laughing and playing in the mud.
They think this is big time funny and want me
to come on down and join them. Furthermore
they expect me to chauffeur them back home
in their sidecar then gently bathe them, kids ;-)-
Another trip to the field was planned for today
but it's pouring rain right now so we're on hold.
Thank you for your comments and donations.
Thank You.

Looking northwest towards Marin County from the Albany Bulb landfill on the east side of the San Francisco Bay. The tree line shadows reflected on the mud flats caught my eye.

One of three rhinos in a group that was relaxing in the midday hotness. Photographed in Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary.
A dark colored mud dauber from central Benin (collection from 1997). This wasp lives in miombo forests with 6 months of drought. The pointed and long mandibles are used to collect mud to build nests. The nests are often seen in crevices, old trees and houses. The impressive jaws are also used to hunt spiders that are brought to the nest. Total length of this wasp is 3,5cm; this image is about 10mm tall.
Studio stack based on 176 images taken with an MP-E 65mm at 3,5x (ISO100, f5.6, 1/200sec, wb on flash). Flash needed 3x2 AA batteries (GP, rechargeable NiMH, 2600mAh, 1.2V). One flash at 20 cm, diffused with a bristol paper roll, fitted rather close around the specimen (diameter 35mm). The colored streaks in the background (upper right) come from the wing.
