I’m finally getting around to my photos from my trip to South America and this time I decided to do things a little differently.<\/p>\n

After our trip to Africa in 2008<\/a>, I not only posted photos online but I also put together a little video of the trip.\u00a0 Using\"\"<\/a> iMovie on the Mac, I\u00a0 combined photos, videos and some songs from an African choir I downloaded from iTunes.\u00a0 That video turned out to be pretty long, so I never posted it online.<\/p>\n

While in Buenos Aires, I was so taken by the rhythm of the city, and the fact that music was everywhere, I decided I wanted to do a video presentation to accompany the photos.\u00a0 I recorded videos of street performances thinking that I would use those as the soundtrack but the microphone on the G10 didn’t do such a great job of capturing the music – at least, not the way I was shooting with it (not really standing with the mic pointed reliably at the source).\u00a0 And then I came upon this tango orchestra performing during the San Telmo markets on Sunday.\u00a0 They had the audience captivated and I couldn’t resist purchasing one of their CDs. It’s their music I used for the soundtrack.\u00a0 If you’re ever in Buenos Aires (and I would highly recommend it) be sure to check out Orquesta Tipica El Afronte<\/a>.\u00a0 They play regularly in town, though not on days that I was able to see them in a proper venue.<\/p>\n

This video contains images taken during my trip including photos from Buenos Aires, El Calafate, Colonia Del Sacramento, Torres Del Paine, and Los Glaciars National Parks.<\/p>\n

I will post the individual photographs soon as well as a few blog posts about the trip.\u00a0 In the mean time, I hope you enjoy the video.\u00a0 By the way, the little 4-arrow button on the bottom right of the video will blow this out to full-screen, definitely the way to watch (if you ask me \ud83d\ude42 )<\/p>\n

As before, I used iMovie to put this together.\u00a0 It’s a pretty decent product and the ’09 version fixed some of the little issues I had with the previous version.\u00a0 This still turned out a little longer than I’d like – next time I’ll make it even shorter.<\/p>\n

The photos and videos are taken using either the NIkon D300 or the Canon G10.\u00a0 All of the videos are from the Canon and it’s obvious that the quality of the videos is not as good as that of the stills.\u00a0 I’m really looking forward to getting an SLR with video capabilities but that’s not a purchase I’ll be making soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
