“Your Camera’s on Fire”: Photography Challenges in the Field | National Geographic

the whole story’s had a cloud over it
boiling dark cloud the monsoon is still
going on the wettest march and april
since 1970 the batteries are smoldering
and stinking and burning your cameras on
fire it nearly burnt the place down
strobes flood a GoPro floods gone we
lose another light the electronics are
scrambled torrential rains and kaboom
another $3,000 charger blows up like
this place has it in first mosquitoes
are buzzing around our heads you don’t
have to worry about the bends you have
malaria and as of two days ago a cyclone
beginning is eating us up and spit us
out and this story was supposed to be a
gift an easy beautiful story funny all
these years all these stories every
place we’ve gone to we’re sort of
reluctant to leave but it’s over now so
say g’nite Buffalo Bob good night bum
