CPL

It’s been a pretty busy couple of months for me, as I’ve been finishing off my commercial pilots licence (CPL) here in Tasmania, training with TASAIR. The lead-up to the flight test has been somewhat stressful, and last week I went out with my examiner for 3.1 hours… unfortunately, I didn’t tick all the boxes first time ’round, and doing possibly THE worst cross-wind landing in the history of flight testing at Bridport didn’t help. So out we went again on Monday for another 1.5 hours, and this time, I got it right. A relief more than a celebration!

Antarctic video… finally

This took me a while! Shots from various trips over a number of years, and a variety of formats (ended up as standard definition DV). Struggled to find some music to put to this, eventually found a Moby track I really liked. Now to track down Moby and ask if I can use it in a film festival…

New timelapse video on YouTube

 

Shot this timelapse in Cambodia last year, and finally got around to editing it and putting some music to it. Apologies for the chunky resolution of it… I’ll upload a higher res version to YouTube sometime soon.

Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples are literally being over-run by us tourists… Bec and I really felt like we were part of the problem over there. It really is an amazing place though, and if you persist, you can find a few quiet places in the forest, and even stumble upon some lesser temples and outposts that make you feel like you’re discovering them for the first time! rare event though…

More likely you’ll be fending off temple urchins trying to sell you a bangle, whilst simultaneously choosing a new ringtone for their mobile phone. Or a squad of young girls from the UK will wander by talking about a pair of jeans they bought that were, you know, perfect, completely ignoring the thousand year old temple that surrounds them. Such is life…

Another blog to clog up cyberspace…

So I got a blog. Well, why not, everyone else does! A chance to keep you up to speed with what’s going on with me and my various projects.

cheers!
