Happy New Year!

Yikes! It’s February already. Well, a belated Happy New then.

We’ve finished our move to Arizona (on the NM border). There’s a million new opportunities here for intreresting time-lapse movies. The easiest was the koi pond about 30 feet from our front door.

So here’s my first movie of the new year. I didn’t put too much thought into it. (It was more of a test that turned out well.) I hoped that I could get both the sky reflecting in the water and the koi swimming in the water… or whatever koi do in ponds.It worked better then I expected.

There are tons of frogs in this pond. They make the most delightful squeak when scared. It doesn’t take much to scare them and the pleasure I take in their squeaking doesn’t work to their benefit. I see them leaping into the pond all the time, but I never see them creeping back on to the shore. I hoped to catch them in this video. Alas, I see none of the crafty little devils.

There are a couple variation of this time-lapse on youtube. This link is to all the movies I’ve posted on youtube. Note that one of them is nearing 10,000 views. That seems amazing to me.
