I’ve slowly been collecting 210fps footage, and I’ve found shots of fire and water particularly compelling. I’ve still got a long way to go before I capture something truly spectacular (need to work on stability and focus, for starters) but some of the more promising results along the way are now up on Youtube. As well as the waterfall above there’s two clips of fireworks, and this one of a fire.

Last week saw the first Edinburgh `Urbathon‘ – a 10K run with the added complication of obstacles and taking place in the less than flat Holyrood Park. The event was organised by Chest, Heart and Stroke Scotland as a fundraiser, if you’re wondering why anyone would subject themselves to such a thing on a Sunday morning, and you can donate online. I wasn’t competing, but probably racked up a comparable distance taking pictures and video- although not at pace! You can find a set of some of the better still captures on Flickr, and here’s the slow-motion video highlights courtesy of Youtube: One of my shots also made it into the BBC’s Your Pictures of Scotland section this week, but the slideshow seems to be a bit broken… I recently spent a couple of weeks in Toronto, officially for a workshop at the Fields Institute. Details of my talk there (with links to the slides and audio recording) can be found in this post. Of course, whilst there I also managed some sightseeing; there’s a review of my trip on SoSauce, with an associated gallery. A selection of the pictures there are available at higher resolution on Straylight, from both Toronto and Niagara. Finally, there are a few snaps from the nodermeet. New look for the Straylight homepage; this should provide one convenient place to keep track of my various online projects once it’s up and running properly! |
