CAPTURE NEW HORIZONS

This is the third timelapse video of the project I am working on in and around my home in Dunbar.  This is East Beach, the main beach in the town.  The video was taken from three locations around the bay, capturing 100 images at 5 second intervals from each of the three areas.  The 300+ images were then put together using Windows Live Movie Maker to produce the finished video. The images were loaded into Movie Maker and each image was given a display time of just 0.1 seconds, giving a frame rate of 10 frames per second.   The music is rights free and was downloaded from  www.freemusicarchive.org .  The track is  Cylinder 5  by Chris Zabriskie, the same composer I used for the Belhaven Bridge Timelapse Video HERE .  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE SUPPORT THIS BLOG BY VISITING THE ADVERTISERS ON THIS PAGE By clicking on the ...

T he Barns Ness Lighthouse was my first photographic subject when we arrived from England on the 31st July.  I've been meaning to go down to the shore and take some more images of the tower and yesterday the conditions were perfect for a short walk to get some pictures on the Fuji X100S before it is returned next week. The first shot is actually three images stitched together in Photoshop Elements 11 looking northwards towards the lighthouse and the North Sea beyond. HISTORY - from Northern Lighthouse Board website HERE The Lighthouse at Barns Ness was built by David A Stevenson, Engineer to the Commissioners. The light was first exhibited on 1 October 1901, approximately 2½ years after building operations commenced. The tower is 121 feet high, and is constructed of stone from Craigree (near Cramond) and Barnton quarries, as are the other buildings. The stone has proved to be tough as Barns Ness was machine gunned during the War, and no damage was sustained.  ...

On our visits to Mull we try to visit as many places on the island as possible but the Ross of Mull, on the south side of the island hasn't had much attention from us on the last couple of trips.  We decided to change this in 2013 and we took a drive to Burnessan alongside Loch Scridain. The weather was beautiful so we stopped for a picnic and explored the shoreline with it's many rockpools and view across the Loch towards Ben More.  Sea Pinks growing on the rocks with Ben More in the background Low down on the shoreline Sea Weed Strawberry Anemone  Strawberry Anemone The rocky shoreline of Loch Scridain Burnessan All images taken using a Fujifilm Finepix X100 with a standard 23mm f2 lens or with a WCL X100 wide angle converter fitted (19mm f2) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE SUPPORT THIS BLOG BY CLICKING THE NEW GOOGLE ADVERTS It doesn't...
