slow motion

Drawing a little inspiration from the recent "Shot on an iPhone" TV commercials from Apple, I decided to get a little artsy with a couple of videos I shot while on vacation in St. Augustine, Florida last week.

Fireworks are pretty awesome. Fireworks in slow motion are pretty awesomer.

No cats were harmed in the making of this video. At least that's why he says.

When I go to the movies, grabbing a popcorn to enjoy during the show is a must. And since many theaters now allow you to add your own butter and salt, I usually walk out of the theater with grease stains on my pants from the ridiculous amount of fake-butter-concoction I pour into the bag...

Although my attempt to learn guitar a several years ago failed, if I were to sit down and write out a bucket list, learning to play drums would be near the top. When my wife and I bought our house, one of the selling points for me was the finished basement...

OK, I've saved the best (and possibly the grossest) for last. The uncontrolled faces people make when they sneeze are some of the funniest things you'll see. As hard as you may try, there is absolutely no way to make a sneeze look cool. Your eyes close, your brow furrows, and your face contorts into some weird shape as air, spit, and sometimes even a little snot explode from any opening it can fin
