West Virginia is beautiful when the powder falls. I grabbed my HV30, tripod, and headed for a nearby park.

Later, I simply stood out on the porch and gathered more video while sipping on a hot cup of coffee. Simply wonderful.

Enjoy!

    Ah, Nick Drake. He was such a great musician. You've got some beautiful footage there.
  • Paul Davis plus 10 months ago
    AH yes...and he died at such a young age. I personally believe he was a genius and his music was so far ahead of its time.

    You're awesome Karen. I keep checking your page for a new video. boop beep beep whir boop!
  • Nothing new for a bit, I'm working on a million things at once (not video or film related) and also I'm frantically putting my thesis proposal together. I made a silly video tonight for my friend but it's kinda long, about how to load a 16mm camera and stuff, which should be up in a couple hours...but other than that I'm working on a quick vid for a project I'm hoping to launch soon and various other things..wheeeee!!!

    I'm gonna shoot 16mm this wednesday, but that won't come back for a bit. :-)
  • Paul Davis plus 10 months ago
