Orionid Meteor Shower Last Saturday Morning (HD Timelapse Video) The Orionid Meteor Shower this year was a bit of a dud. I was shooting up at 11,000 feet in the White Mountains and ran my camera for about 4 hours, from 10:40pm Friday until 2:50am, well after the moon came up. To see how a much more active meteor shower looks, here's one of my Perseid Meteor Shower videos from the same location, displayed on the Discover Magazine blog, best viewed full screen: Perseids, Writ Large http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2009/08/25/perseids-writ-large/ I have a number of posts on my blog www.MyPhotoGuides.com * related to night shooting and timelapse videos. Here's one of the more recent ones building on those pasts posts: Create a Timelapse Video of a Meteor Shower http://activesole.blogspot.com/2011/08/create-timelapse-video-of-meteor-shower.html I'm curious to see how an HD 720P video gets displayed on G+.

Starbucks in Turkey... They really are ubitquitious everywhere in the world?
ReplyDeleteNicholas Chase, they're actually not! I thought so as well- (England, Spain, Italy, etc) but I lived in Copenhagen this past spring and there were none to be found. It seems Starbucks has yet to take over their Scandi competitor, Baresso. Stay strong, vikings!

ReplyDeleteWell if you want to see really amazing cafés, come to Vietnam. Shameless plug: https://plus.google.com/108595456808850731771/posts/9f8XeNDExBo
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my very firsts HDRs, I guess there are lots to improve ̣̣lol. And it's my first photography project, to document all these wonderful cafés here (few tourists know about them, they are hidden everywhere though). Now I'm practicing as much as I can to make better photos in the future.
They just openned one here in Gothenburg (or is about to). But theres allot of similar coffee houses in Scandinavia so it might be tricky. Never mind though since if people want it, they thrive if they dont they dont.
