Wow. This is really fantastic.

cheers William

faved! so good

I like your works!!! Very nice.

Absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!

This is my favourite of ALL Ex1 clips I have ever seen so far. This one sets the standard for me. To me, at least. This is - photography wise, timing wise, color wise - where I would like to get to. Thanks for setting this standard for me.
Filippo.

Hooray for Nuevo Mexico!!! Isn't the Southwest beautiful. An Artists Paradise. Awesome vid, hombre. Colors were great. Keep it going. Peace.

amazing. i watched it three times.

Impressive! I really enjoyed it.

My head exploded and then reassembled itself while watching this video...

EPIC ! Like most of your videos :)

You do an amazing job - very inspirational

Looking forward to see more !

This film is truly breathtaking ... I particularly like the dusk and night-time images.

Bravo!

Again - I just love it.
You always manage to kick me out of the house to go film myself (after I've watched it over and over again), which is a good thing.

Great stuff, Phil. This had a very cinematic feel to it, more so than your other stuff. Nice to see you shooting on this side of the water.

Another fabulous piece.

Fantastic! Although, might I suggest the theme to Where Eagles Dare for the tram section? :-)

"Broadsword to Danny Boy, Broadsword to Danny Boy..."

Absolutely beautiful work. Your color pallet is wonderful. Good job.

Make me want to go to Albuquerque !

Just Wonderful... I have a Sony V1N, and i will post some videos here in Vimeo soon... But I can't wait the time to have some money to buy the EX1... What a camera!!!

But most important than the camera, is the man behind... Congratulations Philip, you have a new fan!!

Breathtaking atmosphere!
Q: What lenses did you use on the letus if I may ask?

this is outstanding work and a beautiful video. thanks for sharing.

I was there for the ballon festival held in Albuquerque in 2006

I am so impressed. Great frame compositions that really showcase the scenery.

Lovely imagery. Where do you find your music?

Brilliant.. definitely one your best!

I'm just curious, was the camera on a tripod in the tram? I can imagine there'd be vibration there, but it looked so smooth.

this is so gorgeous.

you are consistently great!

great stuff.. I have faith in 35 adapters again.

Why are'nt you sitting down with Spielberg right now discussing camera angles for his next movie?

Philip,

I like your camera work, photography, fantastic!

In some part I found colors are oversaturated, for example the guy holding camera in his hand, his face look very much colored, his hand look very much of pinkish!

I am not sure but that guy look like that!

Rush

So you carried a tripod with you? I guess if you are going to take the EX1 and lenses and gear might as well do it right. Very impressive as usual.

Breathtaking! The color grading just makes the whole video dream-like :)

I have never thought that place was beautiful until now. Nice work!

Hardware is great to have at one's avail, but the impressions you create in this video are phenomenal!
To echo my beautiful wife Mariya, who exclaimed these words during the finale of the Aussie Pink Floyd Concert in Boston,
"ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR"!

The Land of Haunting Enchantment.

Wow! That's simply the best piece of film I've seen in a long time. Bravo!

This just blows me away,Philip! I'm just a beginner and not sure if this scares me off or inspires me to try a hand at it! I choose the later and only hope it won't take too long to add something to this community. Patty and I plan to retire in Silver City, NM. Maybe we will see tram in person! Thanx to Arnold Kompff for sharing this!

thank you for that wondurful piece of inspiring footage; great pictures and music.

Incredible.

Thanks for this exotic vision of my hometown. Let me know when you're back in ABQ. I'd love to show you around.

That was absolutely incredible.

Loved every second of it.

great work again, but I think there are enough people how keep on telling you this :)
especially interesting atmosphere !

Looks beautiful. Can't wait to see the finished short. Did you remove the letus to crank the shutter speed?

beautiful. Takes me back to my flightschool days in Las Cruces New Mexico. I visited ABQ many times.

thx for this 1 (favorite)

That was beautiful-thank you for such fine work.

amazing work, my favorite, specialy the mix of two things. beatiful images and good taste CC. Great!!!

Recently discovered Vimeo, and your work is some of my favorite... Nice Music/Picture combo... you seem to know how to get the best out of your equipment and have a great eye. It's inspiring to watch. One question: Is the shot at 1:06 reversed?

The long shots from the tram feel very Koyaanisqatsi, no mean feat! Lovely stuff Phil.

Proves you can make a stunning work out of just about anything. Great job.

The Force is strong with you.

How did you manage the time-lapse pan at the end? Did you pan 1080p in a 720 sequence, or do you have a very steady hand?

What really stunned me is the balance between the city lights and the sunset above it in in the last shoot at 3:00 !

In photography something like that is usually done with either double exposure or with HDR from a RAW file. What have you done? Is the EX1 really that good to give you enough data to get both parts of the shot exposed this beautifully?

And by the way, the red flag at the top of the mountain almost made me cry! :p

Totally inspiring, Phillip! I just threw my Sony SR1 in the bin. I'm starting again from scratch. :)

Magic!

tellement stylé..

Un petit com' fr ne fait pas de mal ; )

Neato.

i like the style that yo give this short and all your work
is there a possibility that you could pt some of your MBL presets online?

This is probably one of my favorite videos of yours so far Phil. You just happen to find the best places to shoot and you let the magic begin.

Good stuff!

Great stuff as always!!! I have ann ex1 too, so I am really excited seeing your work. What was you resolution - frame rate setting?

Wow! Great moods! And some great shots! Leaving the station was terrific! Lovely!

Simply amazing!

Reminds me of Coppola's Koyaanisqatsi, Good job man

Wow that was just so very amazing... ("3nimal" from youtube)... Shots from 2:15 to 2:43 in particular blew my mind.

Well done. Also loved that one you did with the Velvet Underground soundtrack in London.

Simply stunning!

If I could only be half as good at capturing images like you do I will be truly amazed. Each time I see one of your clips makes me want to go out and buy an EX1 - guess I will just have to make do with the DSLR for the time being.

Thanks for the great shots and giving me something to aspire too :)

I will add my KUDOS to this long list of accolades as well!

Kindest and sincerest warm regards,

Awesome.

very nice vid!

I like the sunset

Philip, I live in Albuquerque. You have done an excellent job of showing some of the beauty from the Tram and Sandia Mountain. I am jealous of your capturing the city of Albuquerque night lights (sometimes Diamonds in the Desert). I see Sandia Mountain from my back yard every day. But your video is just amazing. Thank you for presenting it.




Rich

I really like your visual style. Trully magic.

Breathtaking in every sense of the word.

Incredible vid
I love the sunset
What's the music?

Amazing, good work, captured great essence in every shot.

wonderful scenery, wonderful job. bravo.

Those last shots are nothing short of breath taking. The lights are so crisp. Did you pan the camera manually during that timelapse? The other poster is right too. It looks like an HDR! Also I'm torn between an HVX200 and an EX1, but this has gone some way to making my choice.
