Dubai to Los Angeles Time lapse



A time-lapse of my recent flight from Dubai to LA.  I was able to get a complete time-lapse this time with the GoPro HD Hero3, thanks to the frame allowing for external power.  Still working out the best method for these, not a lot of practice opportunities!!  Getting the complete trip this time was an accomplishment, hopefully I'll be able to refine it more on my next flight.

Dune Bashing in Dubai

I went Dune Bashing during my layover in Dubai, here's a GoPro video of the trip.  We traveled about 30 Km through the desert to the camp.

GoPro TimeLapse Dubai to LA

From my flight home last year, my GoPro didn't last the entire flight, and overheated over Iran...  While I wish the view was better, it was the only available window seat...  I hope to have better luck on my next flight!  The hardest thing about learning how best to do these timelapses is that you only have 1 shot per flight!   And for the GoPro, no real way to review until after the flight is over... The sunrise is from a little after we crossed the North Pole, still within the arctic circle.

As I am still not happy with the overall time lapse, I did not bother dust-busting this video yet.  Hopefully my next one will be better!

Election 2012

What a difference, in 2008 it was cold and rainy and over an hour wait. 4 years later, clear, sunny, beautiful and the line is pretty short

Scooters and Shop Owners

This past Sunday, on the way to Raghu's farm, there was something peaceful in the markets that day.  The light rain kept the normal fervor down.
