It was collecting dust.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
It didn't work.</div>

Taking apart technology is always interesting, I encourage you to try it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even if it's and old broken camera.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you look at the top photo you will see the LCD was made by Sony.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hilarious right!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess if your competitor makes a good LCD why not use it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Old Florida.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before interstate highways. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Exclusive walled communities,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And canyons of high rise condos.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There was sun and warmth in the dead of winter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To get there you had to navigate a maze of secondary highways peppered</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with a group of hard scrabble entrepreneurs selling ANYTHING.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Selling, EVERYTHING.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
New Florida is complicated. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Desperately trying to shed the old skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Every now and again you will get a glimpse of the old.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Experience the silly.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Spend three dollars to feed some fish.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you drive south on Route 1 down the Florida Keys</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
just below Key Largo on the north end Lower Matacombe Key</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or as the slick tourist ads prefer "Islamorada"<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will find <a href="http://www.robbies.com/" target="_blank">Robbies</a><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They offer many things at Robbies but there is really only one "attraction"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
PT Barnum and every old Florida cracker would understand.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
People will line up every day, pay you three bucks to make a fish jump.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a quick video that sums up our Robbies experience.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Is nice some old Florida hangs on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
At the intersection of nature and the need for power there is often a mess.<br />
Not here, be a bystander for a moment and watch what happens.<br />
Tampa Electric has created a very interesting thing at Apollo Beach,<br />
<a href="http://www.tampaelectric.com/company/mvc/" target="_blank">The Manatee Viewing Center.</a><br />
<br />
If you are local to the Tampa Bay area, or just visiting, it is a must see.<br />
Every winter the Manatees search for warm water to survive.<br />
Everywhere in the Southeast they flock to warm springs and power plants.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is one of the few places where you can see this close up.<br />
And its FREE!<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I shot a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkP0lkO0ubI" target="_blank">time-lapse video</a> of the center back in 2011 with<a href="http://www.getawaymoments.com/2011/02/teco-manatee-viewing-center.html" target="_blank"> blog post</a>.<br />
<br />
This year Teco added a nature trail and observation tower south of the power plant<br />
and viewing center. You cannot see manatees from the new tower but you can see<br />
Tampa Bay and the coastal habitat in the area.<br />
In flat Florida a good high view is a rarity making the tower an interesting<br />
thing on its own, a bonus!<br />
<br />
Last week I took my lovely wife out for the hike and climb.<br />
We saw an eagle ray and a small shark from the tower.<br />
I shot a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOZ1pA2Gt4s" target="_blank">new time-lapse</a> of our outing.<br />
Here are some photos and the time-lapse.<br />
Enjoy!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
GoPro FanBoy alert. You have been warned.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once again GoPro has managed to squeeze great features into a tiny camera.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The feature I most wanted in a new camera was manual exposure control.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We did not quite get it but were getting closer. The new Hero4 cameras have a</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
feature called Night-Lapse. In it you can set exposures from 2 seconds down to</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
30 seconds with the ability to adjust ISO in Protune.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What does that mean? You can now shoot cool night time-lapses.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a video I put together of my first test shots.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The entire video is made from still photos.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are some frame grabs for your inspection.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Enjoy!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
You are going to do what?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That is usually how the conversation starts.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am always looking for new ways to get cheap and easy shots with my GoPros.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Especially time-lapse.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was faced with a several hour cross country flight and instead of embracing boredom,<br />
I decided to try something new.<br />
How about a GoPro flying tilting time-lapse.<br />
It combines one <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_73CI5TTsVM" target="_blank">GoLapse panning unit.</a><br />
One home-made <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2U5tpWPP6F4" target="_blank">GoPro side mounting frame</a>.<br />
One suction cup.<br />
The results are above, the time-lapses were shot at one frame every 2 seconds.<br />
Check out <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2C9M27E2oM" target="_blank">this video</a> to see how to do a tilting time-lapse on the ground.<br />
Here are some photos that show the setup. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Sunday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was going to edit some video.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was planning on gardening.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nope.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mother nature had other plans.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
See,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here in central Florida when tropical weather hits everything stops. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found myself sitting in the garage watching lightning.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Add a little video camera, rain, and thunder!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I offer you "Lightning Sounds" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ten minutes of primitive hide in your cave audio angst.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
p.s. there are no actual lightning shots in this video.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For years I have wanted to launch a GoPro on a cardboard model rocket.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I finally did it and failed .... kind of.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a link to the video of the launch. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVBJTiUNgSA" target="_blank">click here</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And here is a video of how I did the launch. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27Xs2cPJPfg" target="_blank">click here </a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made one booster rocket and two camera mount noses, photos below.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut a square the size of the GoPro out of the tubes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One looking straight down, the other at a slight angle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you watch the video you will see I only used the look down nose.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I underestimated the engine power needs, so I only did three launches.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will need to build a bigger rocket with a bigger engine to try this again.</div>

I think the camera mount idea will work, it's not perfect but the balance seemed right.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also using a camera nose allows the camera to be above the parachute and not</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
below, that is if you can get the rocket high enough to deploy the parachute.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was a fun and interesting experiment and the GoPro survived!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I mentioned in the video, if you attempt this please read all safety materials.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Your first priority should always be safety first.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you can't do it safely, don't do it! </div>

I have a time-lapse addiction.<br />
Love to shoot them, love to watch them.<br />
There is no limit to the money you can spend buying high end<br />
time-lapse motion control gear.<br />
You can also use high end DSLR cameras to shoot your time-lapses.<br />
All of that is great and the results are stunning.<br />
And then there is the GoPro.<br />
A relatively cheap camera that shoots great time-lapses.<br />
For the last several years I have been building panning devices<br />
for my GoPro cameras from scratch.<br />
<br />
So? What is a GoLapse?<br />
A GoLapse is a mechanical timer that slowly moves a small camera<br />
as it takes pictures at a regular interval. When you assemble the<br />
pictures together you get a motion time-lapse.<br />
The GoLapse is dirt cheap to make and creates a great effect.<br />

If your interested in building one of these GoLapses,<br />
I would suggest watching all five videos, each shows<br />
the evolution of the ideas that bring me to part 5.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
It arrived in the mail in a simple envelop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A photo CD.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As a photographer I have many cameras.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Too many.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I seem to collect them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Often I re-gift them to family or friends in need.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A year or so ago my lovely Mom had a tragic moment and destroyed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a Canon Powershot I had given her years before.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A distraught, and inconsolable call later and she got another</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
second hand Powershot.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Apparently, she knows how to use it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a sampling of the photos on the disk.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Edited slightly.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now if I could just teach her how to upload and e-mail them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks Mom, love the shots.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was 80 degrees here in Florida today. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sorry.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
When your wife wants to go to ..... "fill in the blank"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
sometimes you just go.</div>

There is nothing quite like the taste of fresh strawberries from your own garden.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The last couple winters I have grown a few earth boxes full of strawberries</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with much success. We have harvested a hand full of berries almost every day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This year started well and then I noticed that berries were disappearing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is nothing more frustrating then watching a perfectly formed berry</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
start to ripen and then poof! Gone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One time, bits of berry were left with leaves.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Outrageous!</div>

A funny thing happened on the way to shoot fireworks Saturday night,<br />
I ended up in the wrong place that ended up being the right place.<br />
Every year as part of the <a href="http://www.gasparillapiratefest.com/" target="_blank">Gasparilla</a> pirate invasion here in Tampa, there is a<br />
fireworks show on the water after the children's parade. <br />
It's called the <a href="http://gasparillaextravaganza.com/extravaganza2/piratechnic.html" target="_blank">Pyrotechnic Extravaganza. </a><br />
<br />
I have been wanting to try out some new gear shooting fireworks,<br />
but I really needed to get close.<br />
I picked my location poorly, and ended up quite a distance from the action.<br />
Fortunately I had brought extra gear and the location was great for another shot.<br />
The fireworks framed up nicely next to downtown Tampa.<br />
<br />
ARGH!!!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
New toy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I could not help myself with this one, it just looked cool.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And so far it works well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think I originally saw this "bit of kit" demoed at NAB.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I got the chance to pre-order it ....... I jumped, and I never</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ever do impulse buys ..... go figure.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Steadicam Curve is small, light with an elegant design.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Made of aluminum and plastic, its only function is to stablize</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
GoPro cameras. As a card carrying addict I was powerless.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you need one? Probably .... NOT. GoPro cameras have a wide angle</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lens, almost 180 degree field of view, it hardly needs stabilization.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then again I do see a ton of wiggly GoPro videos on the net so</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
maybe there is a need. Here is a first look video.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I took the new rig on a short staycation</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to Lido Key, Florida. We ran it through several shooting</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
situations with some fairly good results. Video below.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/5xqofep2lKQ?rel=0" width="640"></iframe>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also shot a room tour video with it, including a resort and beach shot.<br />
I think the Curve will be a great tool for anyone using GoPros to shoot<br />
real estate or tour videos. Wedding photographers will probably<br />
find them useful as well. Below is the room tour video.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
You never know what you might get when you try light painting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My wife had been after me to get some sparklers to give them a try.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of course I wanted to try it with my <a href="http://www.getawaymoments.com/2013/06/how-to-paint-light-with-gopro-hero3.html" target="_blank">GoPro Hero3 Black </a>"see addict here".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Unfortunately, the new firmware for the Hero3 Black cut out one of</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my favorite features of the new model, exposure lock. It also reduced</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the longest exposure to a 1/3 second instead of a 1/2 second.<br />
Undeterred we gave it a shot. Amazingly you still get some pretty<br />
good results, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wa2xhd3XHY8" target="_blank">click here to see the video</a>.<br />
Above and below are a few examples of the still frames we captured.<br />
Next, we are going to give it a try with a DSLR and longer exposures.<br />
Stay tuned. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Quick post for my GoPro readers. This week I bought</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the protective lens accessory for my Hero3.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seems like no big deal but I've been waiting years for these.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They come in a two pack for $20. A decent price</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to protect your camera if you are shooting without the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
waterproof case. I made a short video showing how it works</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KqDj5edsFQ" target="_blank">click here to watch it</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This accessory does not fit the Hero HD or the Hero2.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So far it works great and does not seem to effect video quality. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bottom line, if you want to shoot naked </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you might want to get some protection.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
It's just a pink vinca flower ....... or is it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A year ago it started growing in a crack in my driveway.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought it was funny, so I made a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9QdHuIcwPw" target="_blank">video</a> and wrote a</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.getawaymoments.com/2012/12/life-will-find-way.html" target="_blank">blog post</a>. Then something unexpected happened.<br />
It became family. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
It continued to grow.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And grow.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And grow.<br />
I could not think of pulling it up. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A couple weeks ago, we had a yard sale.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Every third person stopped to look at the flower </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in the crack between the garage and the driveway.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dumb founded they would look at us and we would</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
reply .... it just happened.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pink vinca is no longer just a flower, it has a story.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sadly it will come to an end someday, but to update</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that little flower is still going strong and is not so</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
little anymore.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

If you wondered, yes, the poor pink vinca gets a little battered<br />
and bruised every time I use the truck.<br />

Spent a few days in September out on Clearwater Beach.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not much to say other than the Sunrises and Sunsets were beautiful.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sand was white, sun was bright and no work to fight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As usual, many photos were taken. My addiction to</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
tinkering with time-lapse gear and GoPros distracted me often.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are a few photos and videos ..... enjoy.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Update:</span> It's here and it's called the Hero3+<br />
OK that's original.<br />
Here is a link to their page and the new sales demo video.<br />
<a href="http://gopro.com/">GoPro.com</a><br />
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wbvpOIIBQA" target="_blank">Hero3+ video</a><br />
<br />
<b>So the good</b>: color balance modes, better battery.<br />
New lens, better in low light. smaller.<br />
<b>Not so good</b>: still no exposure lock, no 1/4 20, no long exposure<br />
times. Nothing hits me as a wow I need to go buy this now.<br />
I'm thinking the Hero3+ will be missing from my family<br />
portrait above just like the forgettable Hero960. <br />
<br />
The one thing I'm most excited about is the <a href="http://gopro.com/camera-accessories/protective-lens" target="_blank">new protective lens</a>.<br />
<br />
I noticed that on YouTube the new "WOW" video to sell the camera<br />
is listed in the "sports" category. The video was almost exclusively<br />
Sports shots, so I guess this is the target market.<br />
There was not one time-lapse shot, RC or other use shown.<br />
Too bad, I guess all the 15 year olds on YouTube are right,<br />
GoPros are for sports.<br />
<br />
I will continue to use them for almost everything but, until<br />
another manufacturer makes the camera I want.<br />
<br />
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's that time of year when the interwebs start stirring about all kinds</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of new products that will be arriving just in time for Christmas</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and it's time for one of my favorite subjects,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
GoPro.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Is there a GoPro Hero 4 on the way?<br />
I made a video that discusses that possibility and my observations,<br />
predictions and wishes for GoPro's next offering.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIgGeHClltA" target="_blank">Click here to watch.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No way to know what is really coming down the pipe.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One thing is sure, the cameras are getting better with more</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
features than ever before. Soon we will have HD plus</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cameras everywhere, and they will be tiny.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My wish list this time for GoPro?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/4 20 mount on camera.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Make it entirely black. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Manual control or AE exposure lock.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
16 by 9 stills</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Longer still exposure times.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Better battery </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and maybe even a Hero3s that will talk to you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or even a Hero3 Pink.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One is ugly, one is almost elegant in it's simplicity.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both solve a simple problem, how to shoot with a "naked" GoPro.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The companion video will show you how I made them <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4izv2MMe98" target="_blank">click here to watch</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The best ground breaking feature of GoPro Hero's was that it included</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a water proof housing. The cameras have proven to be so versatile that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you soon find that you want to shoot out of the water and want to record</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
good sound. You can't do that when the camera is in a water proof case.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The company now sells a <a href="http://gopro.com/camera-mounts/the-frame" target="_blank">"frame" housing</a> and <a href="http://gopro.com/camera-accessories/hero3-skeleton-housing" target="_blank">a skeleton case</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both are kind of expensive for occasional "naked" shooting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The frame is only made for the Hero3. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Years ago before they came out with the "frame" I made the DIY frame</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at the top of this page for in car shooting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is ugly but it works.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A few bucks in parts and you can make your own.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My new "naked" mount, see below, is inspired by the GoPro</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
mounts RC plane and copter users developed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A few bucks for a strip of aluminum, a screw,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and you're in business. I have been using this new mount for</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in car shooting with great success.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The only downside, it does not work with an LCD back.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So? Need a GoPro frame mount? Buy one, or you can try</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and make your own. Either way have a great time shooting.</div>

<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a rare occasion, but every year our garden doubles as a way station</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for one of the largest dragonflies you will see, a Green Darner.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have never seen any other behavior but rest.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am sure the other life stages of the fabulously colorful</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
insect must be amazing to watch. Our limited time with our guest</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is still and uneventful. This of course makes for a wonderful opportunity</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for photography.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, without anymore rambling I offer you a moment with Anax Junius </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the Green Darner Dragonfly.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Recently I had a problem with the GoPro Hero3 LCD Touch BackPac soft door.<br />
The LCD comes with four back doors, One is a splash door with a soft plastic<br />
cover that allows you to use the touch LCD screen. It is flexible and thin, not made for<br />
deep diving. It is also not made for extreme pressure changes.<br />
On a recent flight my touch back door bulged out damaging it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My flight was cross country so we probably reached altitudes of 30,000 feet or higher.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Usually cabin pressure is kept to about 8 to 10 thousand feet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before my trip I had installed the touch backdoor on my Hero3 at sea level.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As the altitude rose on the flight the pressure pushed the plastic film</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
door out until it became deformed. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did a search to see if there was any information on this problem.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
GoPro has a article about it in the support section of their website.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://gopro.com/support/articles/lcd-touch-bacpac-backdoor-bulge">Read here.</a><br />
http://gopro.com/support/articles/lcd-touch-bacpac-backdoor-bulge</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So let my mistake help save your LCD Touch BackPac.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you are going to fly or traverse great altitude changes, make sure</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you do not have this backdoor on any of your GoPro cameras. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
When you have a garden, you sometimes find yourself in the middle</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of a mystery. Pieces of seemingly unrelated evidence, death, distruction</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and very few answers. You can get on the interweb and search,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
check all your handbooks and still nothing. Every once and a while you get</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a break. I found this creepy little cocoon actually a pupa while digging a new</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
plant bed. My interest peeked after I thought I saw it move. I quickly</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cleaned it off and sequestered it to a jar. Then put it under video surveillance.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The results, where too creepy not to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArvIFfSWATU">share.</a></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After capturing this wiggle-athon, I placed the pupa in a container<br />
and waited to see who would emerge.<br />
About a week later, I found this little moth in the container.<br />
Its a Cabbage Looper, I think. <br />
For weeks I had been fighting a loosing battle against caterpillars<br />
on my cucumber plants, and now I had my answer.<br />
Years ago I posted some photos of<a href="http://www.getawaymoments.com/2010/06/cucumber-bandit.html"> "Cucumber Bandits"</a><br />

<span style="background-color: white;">Update: If you want to try this, do not update your Hero3 Black with the new</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">app firmware 3.03. The new firmware disables the exposure lock on</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">.5 and 1 second time-lapse interval modes. So we will be back to auto everything.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A couple months ago I wrote a post about the <a href="http://www.getawaymoments.com/2013/01/siesta-key-sunset-drums-and-light.html" target="_blank">Siesta Key Drum Circle</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In it I used a GoPro Hero3 Black Edition to get some cool light</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
painting still photos and time-lapses, check out the video <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FPWtPSKn5U" target="_blank">click here.</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So how did I do it?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Short answer, long exposure still photos.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Long answer, you have to trick the all automatic POV camera.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The GoPro Hero3 Black Edition is the latest in a series of</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"point of view" POV cameras made for sports and adventure</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
photography. It's made to be idiot proof, so it's all automatic.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This new camera has a much better chip then previous models</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so it is much better in low light. A new feature to this model</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is that the exposure will lock in time-lapse interval mode (stills). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So if you want to do light painting, you need to get the longest</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
possible exposure, which is a half second at 2.8 at ISO400.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When you start your time-lapse the exposure will lock on the first frame.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, if you put a lens cap on the camera, making it shoot black,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the auto exposure will open all the way up. Then pop off</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the lens cap and do your light dancing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I set the time-lapse interval mode to a half second so</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that the camera is always shooting with no pause in between shots.<br />
<br />
Important note, if you start a time-lapse during the day<br />
with the lens cap on, all your photos will be overexposed.<br />
This trick is only for night shooting. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are some sample stills and camera setting shots.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made a companion video to this blog post with new light painting</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

There are two kinds of people on Kaua'i, those that see the chickens and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
those that pay them no mind. Of course, yours truly shot tons of photos</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the wild ubiquitous island residents, marking me as a main-lander.</div>

The Hawaiian island of Kaua'i is amazing. A treasure.</div>

If you can, go, but be cool and leave her as nice as you found her.</div>
