Follow us on Twitter: twitter.com/dustin_farrell http://twitter.com/crewwest website: www.crewwestinc.com/ PLEASE WATCH IN HD FULL SCREEN w/SOUND. It is a much better viewing experience. Hopefully you have a 1080P monitor and good connection. If not, bug a friend or colleague that does. It is worth it. Landscapes: Volume 2 is the second of a three part series (probably). Every frame of this video is a raw still from a Canon 5D2 DSLR and processed with Adobe software. In Volume 2 I again show off my beautiful home state of Arizona and I also made several trips to Utah. This video has some iconic landmarks that we have seen before. I felt that showing them again with motion controlled HDR and/or night timelapse would be a new way to see old landmarks. Sales Pitch: I would now have to say that my timelapse skill set is very complete. The amount of knowledge I have gained through research, testing, and shooting experience is astounding. From moon phases to high dynamic range to motion control rigs to noise reduction, you would have a tough time finding someone with more overall knowledge of timelapse. If you need help with your next timelapse project you can reach me at 888-444-2739 or DustinF@crewwestinc.com Most of the motion control for this video was done with the Stage Zero Dolly by Dynamic Perception. Once I got comfortable using the DP dolly I fell in love. I can set up shots now in much shorter times. More importantly for me, it is much smaller and much more portable than my homemade motion control. Without it, shots like the Delicate Arch shot in Utah would be nearly impossible due to the length of the hike. Buy the Stage Zero Dolly if you are looking for quality, inexpensive, easy-to-use motion control. http://dynamicperception.com/ In addition to the Stage Zero, I also used a three axis motion controlled CamTram. The CamTram is the most versatile dolly I have ever used. Its applications are only limited by your creativity. The CamTram has virtually no weight limit. I was able to achieve shots that dolly-in with the camera just over the ground because of the CamTram's ability to hold heavy counter weights. Here is their motorized options link: www.camtramsystem.com/motorized_info.html and the motorized options video: www.camtramsystem.com/motorized_video.html The amazing graphic work at the beginning and end was done by Chris Pettit of Digital Skye Media Development.

They were very friendly and helpful. http://www.lowell.edu/ Saving the best for last . . . thanks to my wonderful wife Laura. Not only does she put up with and support this crazy passion of mine, she helped out on many of these shots. I think I'll keep her :-) ENJOY -

WordCamp San Francisco took place this weekend – highlights included:
Coding and Scaling Presentation – http://www.slideshare.net/markjaquith/coding-scaling-and-deploys-oh-my – where slides 11 and 22 were about the only thing to have caught our eyes…
We also heard that Nginx is now being used for the entire WordPress.org domain and that the WordPress.com domain is currently supported by 1,500 servers and contains just over 2 petabytes of data…
We also heard about an interesting \”database abstraction\” plugin – http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-database-abstraction/
A couple of interesting pages highlighted from the Codex prove useful starting points for discussion in regards to MongoPress foundations:
Coding Standards – http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Coding_Standards
Philosophy – http://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/
I also heard there was some minor discussions regarding NewSQL and the possibilities of adopting MariaDB and (or) Drizzle, but nothing regarding NoSQL
I’m surprised that they only started and highlight this now.
The coding standards were a good read =)
Good to know I have a good mentor that saved me the hassle of undoing bad habits

LauTeam commented on the blog post How To: Import 7 Million Locations from GeoNames to MySQL, then into MongoDB so they can be compared and optimized for Location Queries 10 months, 1 week ago · View
We did not intend for our article to claim that MongoDB is 8,000 times faster, only that the exact query we needed to conduct under the circumstances we needed to conduct them led to results that were over 8,000 times faster. The smaller the data-set and the more specific you get with the query (and [...]

A Year After Diaspora, Another “Facebook Alternative” Emerges: Altly http://t.co/RZzVS5H via @techcrunch
The rational behind Altly.com – http://blog.altly.com/2011/05/the-need-for-an-alternative-to-facebook/
But still, I hear no reference to the term OpenSource – which is a must have in order to take down Facebook and all future competitors…His arguments are very convincing and I’m curious to see how this pans out.
Fully supporting the idea and creation of Altly =).
Then you might be glad to hear the following…
