Today I had my summer moment of Zen:
This year I ventured into Asturias to a really cool cove that I discovered last summer in Tapia de Casariego:
and as I had hoped, it provided and amazing tide differential:
Once again I targeted a big tide moment, this year was not a double whammy like last year but it was still a big tide:
In the end I was capturing for 6 hours 10 minutes and 2 seconds:
Which gave a lot of time to:
- spoke with some pilgrims
- picked up trash on the beach
- had a cool beverage
- had lunch
- started reading Rise and fall of D.O.D.O.
- watched a fisherman
- watched some people kyaak
Here is the rig used:
And then combined all the pictures into a video: mencoder -idx -nosound -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mjpeg -o 2020_zen.avi -mf fps=24 mf://@list.txt
