What does it look like to sit in the front of a car and drive across America in 15 minutes? A bit like this I guess.

 

This is a 3,920 mile road trip that takes in New York, New Jersey (via the Northlandz, world’s biggest model railway), Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia (Mark Cline, one of life’s winners), Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California (quick Disneyland stop ‘natch) and Nevada (they have guns there).

 

It all started with a surprise sound track on a mysterious CD found in the hire car we picked up in New York, without this I don’t think the Boob would have survived (yes the Boob did all 3,920 miles of driving, what a trooper):

 

 

We’ve got more videos to come from the trip, and photos… so many photos, I’m not sure the Internet is big enough, we might need a new one.

 

Just arrived in Woolacombe, Devon, and we have a great view of the sunset from our swanky apartment. So naturally we shot a time lapse of it, and will probably be shooting many more.

 

This video is also on Youtube if you’re that way inclined.

Another little test of the time-lapse controller. This time The Boob took us on a whirlwind tour from Collier Row, to Hainault then Romford and home. The dog track was kicking out in Romford, some slow traffic made for some good still moments in the time-lapse. Oh yeah, we were on a 3 seater speeder bike.


A quick low down and dirty test of the time-lapse controller for our SLR. Not the most awe inspiring clip, but I’m sure we’ll be gagging for a bit of grey sky when we finally limp into LA next month at the end of our USA road trip (more info on that to follow).

Just stumbled over the time lapse feature on my favourite side arm camera, the Canon S80. Here’s a quick nastee test. Expect more things with this new toy. New things to dazzle and boggle the mind… or maybe just sunsets and that.
