Happy Birthday Day NaiNai!

My mom’s birthday today (Singapore Time). Video made with iStopMotion and iMovie HD. Technical note, for stop motion, I find it much easier to start with the final frame then deconstruct it (The second law) and finally reversing the images in iStopMotion. Movie of Linus was recorded with an iSight in iMovie. Finally, import the stop motion video into iMovie, add music and export to disk using settings found here.

 

Humbled

~10 miles today. I’ve been running mostly flat and not often enough. Considering that the Big Sur marathon promises the “worst timing of your life but the best time of your life” and having seen Hurricane Hill for myself, I thought I’d better hit the hills. Hence, the Dish. Ran the loop twice before the sun set. No matter how well you think you are running, there is nothing like the Dish to set you straight. Humbling.
