Photos of Blizzard 2009

Michael Clark I — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 22:14:15 +0000

I’ve uploaded two galleries of photos of the Great “December to Remember Blizzard;” also known as the “Shopper Stopper Blizzard;” or the “That’s a Lot of Dang Snow Blizzard.” 7b1d91231a87fb75e0054e886a0dea57

I shoveled the sidewalk at 11am. I did it again at 3:30, and you really couldn’t tell I had done it earlier. Whew! I’m glad to be inside where it’s nice and toasty.

It looks like we’ve received at least 18 inches of snow. And it’s still snowing!

Photos of the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia

Last week my wife and I traveled through Virginia and West Virginia on vacation. Here are the photos taken early in the morning in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, outside Staunton. A beautiful sunrise, a small farm one hill away, mountains everywhere. 7b1d91231a87fb75e0054e886a0dea57

Lunar Eclipse Photos

Michael Clark — Tue, 28 Aug 2007 10:56:19 +0000

I got up this morning at 4:30 to view a total lunar eclipse. I glanced out the window, and the moon was looking nice, a few clouds, but the moon wasn’t obstructed. I get dressed, find the camera, and go outside. Tons of clouds rolled in. The eclipse started at 4:51, and I couldn’t see a thing. I walked down the block and waited about 15 minutes. Nothing. Solid cloud cover. I went back inside, checked email. I glanced outside again, and the clouds were gone. I grabbbed the camera and went back down the block and got these two photos at about 90% coverage: 7b1d91231a87fb75e0054e886a0dea57

Wow, proof that the Earth is round, you can see the curvature as the Earth’s shadow passes onto the moon’s surface. The photo on the right is using my camera’s 3X optical zoom.

TimeLapse: Setting up Church

Michael Clark — Tue, 29 Aug 2006 09:59:15 +0000

Our church used to meet in a local school. So we’d have to set everything up and take it down each Sunday. Every week. For ten years. A few weeks before we moved into our own building I made this movie showing how we set up the church each week. 7b1d91231a87fb75e0054e886a0dea57

TimeLapse: Traveling through Virginia

Michael Clark — Mon, 28 Aug 2006 09:59:30 +0000

I shot this driving from my home to my grandparent’s home. I taped the iSight camera to the dashboard, and put my Powerbook in the back seat. It did pretty well, except the laptop battery died, so the video ends abruptly. 7b1d91231a87fb75e0054e886a0dea57

TimeLapse: Puppy Dog on the Stairs

Michael Clark — Sun, 27 Aug 2006 09:59:11 +0000

This was my first time lapse movie I shot. Although technically this is probably a stop motion (like Claymation) video. 7b1d91231a87fb75e0054e886a0dea57
