Smoking grass in Puna, the things I do for photos
Saturday, September 26th, 2009Video camera, iPhone shooting live video and a digital SLR and tripod to shoot a little grass fire in Puna today. The real video is here. I have to remember to clean my video camera lens.
Okay, I goofed, vote again on the real voting site for the video
Thursday, September 3rd, 2009My girlfriend’s sister created this video for Hawaii Volcanoes National Park via a contest. She’s in the 7th grade and winners get a MacBook so click on the image above and give her some stars for her project. She worked hard on it, had to re-shoot a number of scenes and overcame a bunch of technical problems to make the deadline. Not bad for a 7th grader.
I goofed and posted the wrong link before to vote for the video. Below is the correct link to vote (or click on the image above). Scroll to the bottom of that page and vote for #10 Karina W.
Stay alert! That cellphone call, Twitter or text message could be your last
Monday, July 6th, 2009On my way into Hilo this afternoon there was a gal in a white Chevy Blazer weaving all over the road, and I mean really weaving. I caught the tail end of her winding drive on video. She was reckless by mostly driving on the center line and veering onto the shoulder (good thing both lanes were going in the same direction).
I was able to get close enough to see a license plate to call it into the cops, I called them twice as all of a sudden she went left to go onto Kilauea Avenue. I thought for sure she was going to plow into oncoming lanes of traffic headed south.
I didn’t see which way she went after that and I don’t think the cops did either, but they do have her license number so I think they’ll be contacting her.
I don’t care how good of a driver you readers are, you have to be a defensive driver and watch for folks like this on the road. Be alert, don’t twitter, yak on the cellphone, fool with the stereo. Had she headed straight onto the southbound lanes it would have been bad…really bad.
Butterfly antenna
Sunday, June 28th, 2009Sometimes you’re just flying around, minding your own business and blammo, you never saw it coming. I filmed this on the 2nd but only got around to posting it now.
A pretty good job of filming without looking through at the viewscreen if I do say so myself. Not a good idea to film and drive at the same time.
