My latest graphic design invites you to smile!
Failure to Pop Corn with Smart Phones
I saw this video about popping corn with multiple smartphones via Facebook mid last week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHTayVYgdnY Without any research I decided I wanted to see if it was true.... [Insert massive SIGH here] ...After research found out I was definitely not the first to give this idea a go. After much umming and aaahing, I... Continue Reading →
New Path, Old Jetties, & Good News (for Me!)
My latest vlog includes: A quick review of the new pathways running from the penguin walk to the top of Reeves Point in Kingscote, and A leisurely midday stroll on at least two of the three Kingscote jetties, plus Some good news about me. I say it a few times, the 2nd and 3rd times... Continue Reading →
Testing the Tamron 18-400mm
Watch to the end to see the difference between 18mm and 400mm when I photograph the yellow sign stuck on the rocks through to the next beach! https://youtu.be/57r3RX_aJeg
The Correct Way to Roll the Toilet Paper
This, so far, has been my favorite video creation on my YouTube channel. I actually planned a timeline showing each of the sections of footage needed to be filmed, plus constructed story boards showing how each would overlay. Doing this helped immensely, and ensured I was able to construct the video in less than two... Continue Reading →
One of My Tripods has Died!
Sometimes I create content which is a little obscure. This short video is about a mini-tripod that has been my favorite vlogging tool for about 2 years. It died earlier this week. Weirdly it was only a few hours after a friend told me about the SMOVE Smartphone Stablizer - which is basically a gimbal.... Continue Reading →
Casey, Your Knees Will Not Stop You!
I feel for Casey Neistat, I actually do. According to his latest video: His left knee creaks when he kneels. Presumably it is more noticeable when he runs. So he is concerned that he may never be able to run again. I gave up running about 2 years ago, at least for long distances, because... Continue Reading →
Move Forward, Look Ahead, Stay Focused
"Listen, do you wanna go back, or do you wanna stay here? I get it. It's nice up here. You can just shut down all the systems, turn out all the lights, and just close your eyes and tune out everyone. .... It's safe. I mean, what's the point of going on? What's the point... Continue Reading →
Reach Out to Grab Opportunities
https://youtu.be/Wg_wIH3uvZE What I like most about this video is what you can see happening in the last metre: ~ First and 2nd place slow down, presumably thinking they're so close to their goal that they can casually jog through. Yes, they're still going pretty damn fast, but just watch their movements, you'll notice they are... Continue Reading →
Shoot Buoys in a Pond
Ok, it is not a pond: It is a tidal pool. If you have never seen the tidal pool, ask any of the locals in Kingscote to point you in the right direction. They are nice people, they will. These five photographs were shot about 3 pm, the perfect time of the day to capture... Continue Reading →
Orange Clover
I'm adding new artwork to my Pixels photo gallery (formerly Fine Art America). Now that we've moved to Kangaroo Island, both my style and genré has changed dramatically. No longer do I see modern highrise architecture. Heritage architecture is few and far between, or else difficult to peruse without visiting private property. So I have turned... Continue Reading →
Calibrating a Canon Lens
Not completely sure, but I think my Canon 70-200 F4 needs calibrating. Thanks to google I discovered I can calibrate the lens myself. I plan to video whilst that is happening, including both before and after shots. I have a bunch of new videos completed, so subscribe and keep watching my YouTube Channel. That's all this time....
