Highway6 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 If any of you happened to participate in the Buffalo Bayou Regatta this past Saturday and saw the nut under the Voss bridge taking photos of you, that was me. This was my first attempt at timelapse photography... and boy, do i feel I have a lot to learn still in order to get it up to professional grade. Regardless, It was certainly a fun way to spend a Saturday morning. Enjoy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian0123 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) I love it. Even though I know it's time lapse, my mind kept forcing itself to make Indy car "vroooom" sounds each time a canoe sped by.

Original Timmy Chan's Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) You were taking photos? I thought we were being cheered on by homeless drunks! My buddy and I did the regatta this weekend. First time I'd been in a canoe in 25 years, and first time I'd paddled in almost 2 years. I probably shoulda paddled once or twice to get in a little shape before tackling a 15-mile trip. That said, we weren't out for speed...we brought up the rear. Picked up a canoe full of trash -- some tires, trash can, chair, seat cushion, beach ball (signed "Thank you for coming to my party!"), and filled a couple of trash bags with styrofoam. That was a blast, and I can't wait for next year! Edited March 14, 2011 by Original Timmy Chan's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would have loved the first music I tried putting to it - some of the fast paced western tracks from Rango. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did look like a blast.. This was my first time to witness it but I definitely look forward to joining in next yr. You might be in the video.. by the time i moved to the finish line, it was mostly the stragglers, the last 30 or so.

JJVilla Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Coo. I was wondering why there were so many more people than usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great vid by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't get out until nearly 3pm. We did have a nice little visit at Ms. Terry's place -- many thanks to her and her friends for providing food and drink! It was a welcomed break, and a beautiful place to enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
editor Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Great video! Tweeted. beach ball (signed "Thank you for coming to my party!" I knew I left that somewhere! Never thought to check the bayou. It's always in the last place you look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
