Outside's Toughest Shots

Outside's Toughest Shots

Outside's website has a great series of challenging photos and the behind-the-scenes stories from the photographers who risked life, limb and sanity to get them:
"we were driving 95 miles an hour to avoid getting swallowed by this thing"
"I blew my entire budget on a helicopter and didn't get a single photo because of poor winds... then..."
"I attempted to be smuggled through a Pakistani no-man's-land, wearing a burka, without success"
"I walked 120 miles over four days to get it"
See the shots and read the stories from Antonin Kratochvil, Camille Seaman, Chris Anderson, Christopher LaMarca, Jason Florio, Jeff Hutchens, John Huet, Joshua Paul, Mark Fisher, Matthieu Paley, Nicky Bonne, Paolo Marchesi, Philipp Engelhorn and Ryan Pyle here.
