This is my first attempt at making a timelapse video. A month or two ago, after a Treetopper’s board meeting and a quick sled run at Henson’s, I stopped in Chattanooga to take some timelapse photos while the sun was setting.

1/5/10 EDIT: Didn’t make the top 50, so they took the video down, but I put it back up on Vimeo and Youtube. It’s finally up! My entry in the Nikon Festival contest, where the brief was to describe your day in only 140 seconds! I decided to go the route of a little story [...]

I mounted the Canon 7D to the keel today after filming some launches. I filmed at the 720p 60fps so I could do some slow mo on them, but I forgot to set the shutter speed correctly (at 125, not 60 that it was on from filming 1080p), so it’s not as great as it [...]

Well, I’ve been working pretty hard, or should I say obsessively, on this new website. At first, I didn’t think I could handle the challenge. I came close to throwing in the towel and go crawling back to the easy-to-use Blogger. But, WordPress seems to be worth the effort and it is definately more powerful, [...]
