The Dash on Fifth Ave.

Yesterday proved a success as I made my way from NYC to Philadelphia on back roads far more traffic light-laded than I expected. As it's the holiday weekend the landscape was draped with more American flags than usual. My next post will share those.

This shot is part self-portrait, part show and tell. It's what I'm going to spend the better part of the next month and half looking at. That's my iphone on the left and my little point and shoot on the right which I used to make time-lapse movies of my ride until the battery died somewhere in Jersey. With every bump the monitor pops on unnecessarily wasting power. It's a kink I'll try to work out. I'll share the little video of my ride from Manhattan to Jersey City shortly.

Make pictures. I am.

What kind of mount are you using for the iphone? I have a Vespa LX 150 and would love to do that to mine. Thanks!

I have done some unspectacular timelapse sequences with my Canon A720IS and the CHDK hack. I adjust all the settings with the screen turned on, then I press the display button until it is switched off. Now I go into "alt" mode with the print button and press the release. The little noises tell me that the camera is shooting away with the screen turned off.

How did you do the timelapse?
