This is to cute to ignore.

This video is just to cute to ignore and not share.

Landing in Adelaide Airport.

Video taken on our little Pentax Camera (as I can not use my phone even in flight mode when landing. What the difference is between a video camera and a phone in flight mode I have no idea… yes I know that people will just leave their phones on e.t.c and the rule therefore is no one can use a phone full stop. ) to take video..

And here is the video compressed down to 1 minute… makes the landing a lot more interesting…

But here is the normal speed version of the plane landing at Adelaide Airport.

I don’t think this will give an accurate

I finally managed to have a little spare time over the weekend so go to indulge myself in one of my strange little habits… Weather Chasing :-)

Yes I drove for 300k’s just to see some snow, take some photos and drive back again. Yep, I am that strange. However it the spirit of nerdom I have the following… geotagged photos (link to flickr set), a kml trace (showing the route home only, I have a proper track file from the R2H but haven’t converted the raw nema data yet and given that apart from a bit of the city the rest of the trip is the same anyway what does it matter) and I will in the next day or so try and compress some of the video that I made of the actual drive (Video is up on youtube… keep reading below). The video being a complete capture of the trip at 10fps at 320×240. The only reason they are this small is that the portable hd I use is only 60gig and so I can fit four hours of video like this comfortably. One day I will get around to increasing it to a 320gig version of the WD Passport then I can get higher res capture.

I also managed to send a geotagged twitter (via twibble) on the way home as well (only because Vodafone don’t have coverage at the top of the mountain). So I think the all round trip to the snow was a technological experience.

Oh yeah and I used the R2H with an FM transmitter for all the music along the way as well. So that was my weekend…. 2 gps’s a car and some snow…. all round lots of fun.

Lake Mountain Snow Chase

I like this photo just about the most of all the ones I got today
Lake Mountain Snow Chase

This was taken coming through a bit of the road called the Black Spur.

Both of the following videos are just the bit between Healesville, through the Black Spur, Marysville and upto the top of Lake Mountain. There are a couple of stops to take photos as well. The drive through Melbourne is all a bit boring really!)

Video 1 - Up to the Top of the Mountain.

Video 2 Down the Mountain

This is facebook….

This covers Facebook… watch, enjoy. (and yes it came via a real life friend in facebook!)

Trippy Train Trip - Town Hall Station to Wynyard station

This is a sample post from my youtube account to my blog. The video is of a small train trip in sydney a few weeks ago with a new bit of audio over the top. All the wigging out however is all in camera. The nokia n95 tends to wig out in black environment with moving lights less than a metre away doing 60kph. Go figure.
