Stop Motion

-
I am fascinated by stop motion photography. I think the amount of work that goes into it and the detail required to make it look good is amazing. Here are two examples that have come my way in the past couple of weeks that I think stand out above most.

Enjoy!

    I've always enjoyed the coinstar commercials. This is the first time I have seen the 2nd video. I loved it. Very interesting what they can do

    You've combined two of my loves in the first video - stop motion and Coinstar! Bravo.

    The second one is awesome too. I'd like to come up with a good idea and do something like that too.

    Coinstar was my best friend in college, when I desperately needed all the money I could scrounge up.

    I'm sorry, that was a lie. My best friend in college was Beer. But Coinstar helped me spend more time with him.

    that's amazing. I wonder how many hours-- how many DAYS-- it took to shoot the 2nd one?? And what a crew they must have had just to smooth out the sheets. I'd have gone stark raving nutters...

    Very cool. I liked Coinstar better but only because I've had too many restless nights for the second one to be entertaining.

Repost: Everyone uses the word, what's your problem

This is from 2009, but I wanted to re-post it because today is "Spread the word to end the word" day. Every time I hear somebody refer to Skyler as "retard" I die a little more inside. Our-kids is a group of over 1000 people who all are people who are in one way or another in the special needs community. Most of us are parents, but there are teachers, doctors, therapists, siblings, and some are the person with the diagnosis. It is a worldwide community, but most are from the United States. We benefit from having an international membership, because it can be quite interesting to hear about viewpoints or medical procedures that are going on in other countries. Over the years, I have had faceless names become close friends, engaged in discussions about body functions you wouldn’t mention to your doctor, and gained a valuable sounding board for advice and ideas. I have grown to care about a lot of these people, and their lives as much as some of my own friend

Goodbye old friend. Hootie: 1997-2009

I'll never forget the day I first saw him. We were driving home from Golden and Kathy said "Why don't you go this way?" We headed down a street I had never been on and found ourselves driving by a little strip mall. Then Kathy says "Turn in here a minute." Now my spidey senses are on alert, and sure enough, we wind up parking in front of a pet store. Kathy had been out in Golden a couple of days before and had found Hootie sitting in a cage looking so lonely. When we walked in, there was a sad little puppy up high in his own cage, with a sign that had 2 different prices crossed out and the third was pretty low. He had been taken and then returned to the pet store. I knew right then that we were heading home with another dog, I had been suckered! I still wasn't quite over the loss of our Golden Retriever, but I never do seem to get over the loss of a pet. Kathy knows that I need a replacement though, and seeing as we always have dogs in pairs, our
