samurai tattoo
I tattooed an old buddy today – I’ve been tattooing him since way back when. Today we did a samurai on his thigh with a couple lotus flowers. It’s gonna look awesome when it’s finished.
The small camera you see in the video is the GoPro HD. We’ve been shooting timelapse video like this one… and will be uploading shortly.

Clouds timelapse
I got a this camera the other day – it’s a super small, waterproof HD camera that shoots both stills and video. It’s called the GoPro HD Hero and it’s one of the coolest cameras I’ve ever used.
It mounts to handlebars, helmets, chests, surfboards, snowboards/skis, cars, heads — almost anything!

It records on an SD card and it runs for about 2 hours before needing to recharge the batteries.
I did a little test the other day – camera facing upwards in the backyard towards the sky. I set the camera to take a single photo every two seconds and left it there for a couple hours. The workflow was a little tricky since the photos had to be cropped before making a movie out of the stills. I think I got the hang of it so now I’m ready to shoot some real timelapse video.
