Approaching Phoenix (Lumiere #4)

MP4 Download SD

This is another Lumiere style video so it doesn’t have any sound. Not that it had some great sound on it to begin with – just distorted airplane rumble. The camera is a fixed as I could get it by holding it against the window. All the tilting is just the airplane making a big turn before landing at the Phoenix airport. It’s also about 15 seconds longer than the 60 sec rule because I wanted to include the entire turn.

    That was the xacti. We were supposed to have all electronics shut off at the time (because you know, recording data to a flash card will cause planes to drop from the sky) so I was trying to be discrete.

    You were especially lucky to arrive in Phoenix when there was something to see in the sky other than dust and pollution… It’s really pretty!

    Here’s a video that shows Leaving Phoenix… and arriving in Wellington, NZ… Let’s see if vPIP will make it play:

    That was breath taking! But note to self: Next time a plane falls out of the sky, must blame Verdi and his xacti!

    Was that the UFO behind that big, white cloud? Nice video, I miss the engine sound a bit, though. (btw just joking ’bout ufo!)
