I met this fellow outside a Trader Joe’s in Albuquerque. It almost defies description, but he had at least three birds (two parrots and a parakeet) and two or three dogs on this rig. Actually, one of the animals may be a cat–I couldn’t quite see from my vantage point. Pretty damn mind-boggling, no matter [...]

Can’t hurt!
According to the person who posted this, “This mantra invokes the Lord Ganesha to remove every impediment in your life and in your works. …” I think I’ll record the audio from this and play it about 3,000 times. Maybe 4,000.

Time for another FarrFeed movie!
I shot this video while driving my truck (I know, I know…) down the hill from upper Llano Quemado on my way to town. It was a beautiful day today, over 40° F, and I had the window open, which accounts for some of the noise. You’ll get to see the [...]

Here’s a pleasant little diversion for you, a video I produced from a few clips taken on my usual walk this afternoon. Nothing earthshaking, but you’ll get a sense of the lay of the land and what it feels like to be in my shoes. (Crunch, crunch, squeak, squeak, walking on the snow…)

While there is [...]

My wife decided to walk first thing this morning, and I went along. I usually can’t rouse myself to exercise before the afternoon, but it was snowing, and I wanted to test my new Marmot “precip jacket.” It was about 16° at the time. This was an experiment in layering: I wore sweatpants, a T-shirt, a fleece pullover, and the jacket, and I was never cold, except for my ears. After they went numb, it felt a lot better!

This is another one along the lines of Andy Warhol’s “Empire,” except that things are actually moving within the scene, and it isn’t very long. The FotoFeed image for Dec. 3rd is actually taken from the very same spot, only looking down. I love this setting, especially for the incongruity.

Since this video has over 100 million views, I’m obviously the the only one around here who hasn’t seen Jeff Dunham’s “Achmed the Dead Terrorist” ventriloquist act. Purely for my own pleasure, then, I hereby embed el video. Don’t play this for your mother, or then again, maybe you should:

I didn’t find this myself on [...]

What have we here? A midnight video!
This one gives you a pretty good impression of what it’s like to walk around in my skin these days. One very important thing that’s not included here is the very photogenic but camera-shy love of my life. I know how she feels — the medium is very revealing, [...]

As promised, here’s the next AcequiaCam installment. I hope you like water, and why wouldn’t you?
This one is about 90 seconds long, with four scenes. To get down close to the water, I suspended the Kodak Zi6 from my monopod, lowering it as close to the water as I dared. This produced an upside-down video, [...]

Give a man a pocket video camera and see how much trouble he gets into!
For anyone who doesn’t know, acequias in this part of the country are traditional irrigation ditches maintained by the local community. The idea comes from Moorish Spain, and some of these ditches are several hundred years old. Over time, they come [...]
