117 Crazy Photographers Who Will Do ANYTHING For The Perfect Shot
Getting the angle and perspective for a photo just right can sometimes be very tricky, but these crazy photographers don't mind – when it comes to taking the perfect shot, they will do whatever it takes.
The acts of devotion to their craft that some of the world's best photographers perform can be truly outstanding. Wildlife photographers have spent weeks camped out in the wild, allowing animals to get accustomed to their presence so that they can get the rare or intimate glimpses at their lives that others only dream of.

This picture is the best I saw, how thoughtful of this photograph to show the result to his forced model.
Get, cover! That is some pretty decent protection from the wild animals.
Don't know about his shoes, but his tripod must be made out of carbon fiber.
Why? It could easily be the paint or lacquer burning on a metal tripod.
Load More Replies...knowing the fact the you are right on top of a just-frozen lava would really make this possible
Load More Replies...I don't care about the shoes, or his tripod, I am wondering about him standing on milted rocks. its more than 400 degrees..... FGS
The image is not photoshop, but it was staged by the photographer: http://wafflesatnoon.com/burning-volcano-photographer/
The Photographer's name is Kawika Singson, the shot is really taken on a lava flow, but he did jump start the flames with lighter fluid.
I don't think so. The other guy's already down AND refusing to give up his camera! lol
Load More Replies...For me, this is picture number one!!! For me this is pucture number one!!!
This is not a real photo; well, not in the way it implies. It was a staged photo.
and you know this how? were you there? just wondering
Load More Replies...the guy on the left..he's so happy to flee first..all what that bear wants is one good meal and his friend with the camera will be enough:D
I literally got vertigo with that picture. And I wonder how where the photographer was that took it.
It might be a selfie: taking a photo in a window on a skyscraper... there's some odd cropping going on at the left which suggests that.
Load More Replies...I just wonder, why take a picture of a person taking a picture when he's about seconds to accident.
made me laugh out loud--he should talk to the guy trying for the fox photo!
Swans; so graceful upon the water, so aggressive on the land. Or something.
Umm im pretty sure that camera has zoom.. he didnt have to get that close lol
that looks like a 24-105, which cannot take pics near as close to the lens as that - sadly I feel this is fake - feel free to correct me ..
A different perspective on what constitutes a shoot... i prefer the one on the right :)
Maybe ground was cold, or may she want to show her gymnastic skills?
Load More Replies...Does a single inch from the ground make any difference? She could just laid down entirely.
Guy has a telephoto zoom on that camera, I doubt he got any usable photo at that range
Load More Replies...Fabulous .. I am sure he never planned this but how fabulous it happened !
Load More Replies...I've gotten a bit soaked trying to catch some waves, but that's impressive.
That wave is right on its way in his direction, ..... Yipe
This is AWESOME! lmao I wonder how much it cost to have the poop cleaned off the camera...
Do you understand which end is responsible for the poop?
Load More Replies...man I love how this shot is from Piaza San Marco in Venezia before they evacuated the pigeons. Shots like this one were totally easy to make
They go through all this, so we can get a closer glimpse of a missed beauty otherwise! AHHHmaxing!
Consider that there is a 2nd photographer in the water as well taking that shot.
Isn't there a second photographer in every single one of these?
Load More Replies...At Stingray City, everyone goes in the water and everybody holds the stingrays. These stingrays are hardly wild.
Two complete winners!... follow the dreams and the paths that call you!
If it's a good enough shot, nobody will care about her oh so attractive pose. XD
Behind every good and perfect shot is a "never mind to humiliation".
that is right! doesn't matter how wet, dirty, or silly i look if i get the shot
Load More Replies...This seems to be the most dangerous out of all of them because I'm sure it isn't safe to put a latter on a harness and then stand on it.
How do you stop the camera batteries from running down instantly in the snow!!!!!
I was wondering the same thing, but about the mechanical parts of the camera!
Load More Replies...i need one for when my kids aren't around to be my umbrella holders.
nice photoshop, like they let the cars race while people walk on the track. -_-
That's not the USofA - where the government feels it's necessary to make rules to protect you from yourself...
Load More Replies..."Nailed the shot!! Broke both of my legs, but definitely nailed the shot!"
This guy must be loaded. He's got a Lambo or a small house's worth of gear on him. Not to mention those are HEAVY lenses...
I believe it was Bill Clinton's cat when he first moved into the White House
i think so. judging by the hairdo of the man standing. and also with the lenses of their cameras. seemed pretty classy
Load More Replies...I doubt any of them are paps, and one of them is as clear as day wearing accreditation
Load More Replies...I know, right? Even if it was a gay wedding why would it matter? It seems like MrTree1779 has a problem with it
Load More Replies...I'll bet that was an incredibly unflattering picture... no one looks good at that angle!
Looking down is not the most flattering look for most people. wouldve been better other way around, wedding party on the floor looking up
Yeah, but she's probably used to him doing weird things!
Load More Replies...My husband and I but I am the one with camera and he is walking away....I don't know you.....
my family has stopped asking about the places i get into to get a shot.
Yes!!!!! Very cool!!!! Great way to get a shot!!!! I've done that.
FRAAN CE France....still debating whether to do it there way or update to traffic cams.......
Amazing! Lovely shot, the perspective and depth of field made my jaw drop!
totally worthless risk ... guy has a crappy camera and could have taken the same shot without getting on the rim.
omg ... thank you, thank you, thank you. Now I know how the world looks from the top of a pyramid :o
I think climbing the pyramids is illegal, so this one is pretty risky...
It's so ilegal, and only few smarts have courage to do it ! but many smoke weed
Makes me think she's not really a photographer - not a professional, at least. "Look at ME!" doesn't fit a photog personality.
It makes me want to slap whoever was shooting her. It looks seriously haphazard. ¬¬
Load More Replies...isn't she just posing as a crazy photographer, with great legs, for the photographer ?? kudos to her courage though...
Because this is BW, its probably water with plants on top.
Load More Replies...i think that he spend all his money in the lens hahahahah
Load More Replies...Some guys compensate with big trucks. Others compensate with big guns. This guy.....
If he wasn't holding the camera, i'd have thought he was going to take the plunge.
Like whatever he's trying to photograph foolishly can't see the big white arms with the camera attached! lol
Maybe they're just that short... I know I am ;)
Load More Replies...another model and not the actual photographer
Load More Replies...A lot of these people are even crazier since they are shooting with the lens cap on.
"When photograhing wildlife, it is best to be as inconspicuous as possible."
"And if you look to the right of the tram, you'll see the very common beach photog in his natural habitat!"
"Mom what foolishness are they doing?" - "Son they're waiting for a tsunami"
Look, son, these are photographers in their natural habitat! We have to be quiet so we don't startle them :D
Who's the crazy photographer taking the photograph of these crazy photographers?
me too! crazed photographers of the world unite!
Load More Replies...Nearly every professional camera is insured.
Load More Replies...Whatever his method to get a great shot, the view is even bigger and better
I would get a frame and hang them on the wall actually
Load More Replies...It looks like this guy pressed the camera on the other guys head.
Yes,thank you. Kinda takes away from the specialty
Load More Replies...And now... show me the photography of a photographer, who photographed the photographer while s/he was photographing the photography.
