My newest toy has arrived... :) indifocus.com

A (24 inch) indiSLIDERpro with fluid head came in the mail and I took it for a fast spin. I'm very pleased with it, especially because all I had before was a tripod with a head for still photography. Doing any fancy movements with something like that is kinda' hard.

My newest problem is how to slide, pan and focus at the same time :D

Pricewise, this must be my best investment so far... I got the 'short' version of the indiSLIDERpro (at 24 inches), since the longer one will demand a very sturdy tripod. I'm still using my small (but very flexable) Velbon Ultra LUXi L tripod. It should be fine for now.

There's no Magic Bullet Looks in this just a little extra contrast and some sharpening. I had my HG10 on manual exposure to avoid the sky from burning out (exposure turned down a bit). The graduated Cokin P filter also helped.
