1 Clip to Remember

This site gets a lot of visitors from around the world.  My goal has always been inclusion, but since I live in the United States, unfortunately my day to day activities are centralized more around what is going on Stateside.  This weekend is the holiday "Memorial Day" and I came across these two flags wrapped together and quite aged.  I thought I would capture them quickly and offer them to you guys. 

I understand that Memorial Day is an American holiday, but no matter where you are reading this from, my thoughts and prayers go out of you, your family, your friends, your service members, and your community. 

Safe is Safe and War is Hell.  That should be a global feeling.

2 Clips are Dandy

Shot these 2 clips while I was on a walk the other day.  The entire walk, I didn't see much that sparked my interest, and these buggers were growing about 10 feet away from where my car was parked.  I really hate these weeds, but nothing signifies spring like dandelions.

1 Clip Needs You To Blow In It

I made this clip the other day for a small project I am toying with.  It was meant to recreate the trippy side effect of a dirty 80's video game cartridge's display when you tried to boot it.  If anyone here isn't old enough to remember, the remedy was blowing into the cartridge to get the dust and junk off of it.

1 Clip is Just a Phase

I had my first chance to get another time lapse of the moon.  My first one I did was with a 200mm Canon EOS lens I had borrowed from a friend.  This one I did with my old Tokina Minolta mount 200mm lens, and the MD to EOS adapter.

If you compare the two, you can see how much I have learned over the past few months.  Here's to better quality videos for everyone!!!  You will also notice I am testing my ability to upload different file formats to Archive.org.  You have a selection below between H.264, Quicktime PhotoJPEG or Avid DNXHD (almost 1GB in size!)

2 Clips are First Responders

I was fighting with my conscience on shooting this footoage.  There was a traffic accident near my house that was drawing a crowd.  I mentioned to my wife that I had always thought that offering footage of emergency vehicles would be a good idea since the footage is used in PSAs and other well meaning media. My idea was to stop by fire halls or police stations and ask for close-ups of some of the vehicles, or ride-along on trainings, not poach real accidents.  I decided that if I shoot with a focus not so much on the detail, but the feel of the scene, I would be able to sleep at night.  This would make a great background for informational text in videos, or to set the mood for more serious projects.  I have included a clean shot, and well as one that is a little more "voyeuristic".

This was also the test run for my old 35mm MD mount lens using my new adapter for my T2i.  I think it looks pretty good!
