| Re: Large Poplar LOL You measured that out well for camera placement when you dropped the log.  Another great job, nice to watch.

| Re: Large Poplar Thanks guys Not bad for a pomme baastard aye!! Full credit to Nick (TW member) and Paddy for being so organised on the ground, lots of stuff coming down without a break. This was Nicks job BTW. The gloomy weather makes the vid a little dark on the web which is a shame. Sure enough, the heavens opened not long after the trunk hit the floor, just as well we got stuck in from the word go! RE: the main trunk. The idea was to position the camera as close to the landing zone as possible. The trunk finished only 1 foot short of this, so it worked out just right. I didn't pace it out or use any tricks, just intuition. Sometimes you just know! Cheers Reg Last edited by RC1 : 29th November 2007 at 07:28 AM. |
