My first attempt at a video post. We had a big ice storm in the Northeast late last week. You may have heard about the power outages and other nastiness, but I thought I'd show you the upside...

Very good!
How did you get such steady pans/movements (like the first shot of the river). Did you use any presets, filters or anything like that on the camera?

Hi, Mitch. Thanks for the kind words. I used Steven Dempsey's VividRGB preset. Otherwise, just the stock AH-1 on a Libec TH-M20 tripod that I bought last weekend. I'm still not really happy with the compression artifacts that I see in the Vimeo version of the video, though. I look at Steve Dempsey's videos and they look pristine. Maybe it's the codec I'm using to render in SpeedEdit.

Damn that looks cold.
Very beautiful indeed. I thought your pans and tilts were bang on. So often I see pans that are too fast that just kill the shot in my opinion.
Nice!

Wow! Very peaceful and relaxing. You really captured the essense of what winter has to offer. Very nice!

Very nice! It has a very serene and poetic feel to it. Makes me wish you had actors just to throw them in a scene using that beautiful backdrop.

Thanks for the nice comments, guys! Pretty much anywhere I aimed the camera that day, something beautiful fell into view.
