More Death by Video Today

This one is 45 Seconds. 1080p. Humor me. Watch it. Fullscreen. I am actually getting better at this. Not good, just less bad. What have I learned so far:

  1. Less is better. Sort of like deleting still photos. Just because you have the image/footage you don’t have to use it.
  2. And, it helps to have a little story. In my case a very little story.

Today’s mental story was “Let’s look at the boats around the pier at about 8:15 am.”

Had a fine swim today. My left arm still doesn’t work very well, but the other three limbs are taking up the slack. I just have to be very careful to not get stuck in any serious current action. And, I have to wear my fins. And my snorkel, because, I haven’t figured out how to breathe with the wimpy left arm.

More about “less is better”. Last year before I left last spring, I apparently got rid of some stuff. The only reason I can tell is my storage box wasn’t crammed shut. There was actually room in it. And, I brought lots less stuff. So, have I missed anything? Well, I maybe might have used a real camera and a telephoto lens one day when the surf was really good. Maybe. But, did I miss it? No. But, I am pretty sure that I will be missing my underwater camera soon. There is a limit to the “less is better”.

Think I deserve a Guinness and maybe a little steak. Time to take me out for dinner.

Then if I am feeling very brave I will update my version of WordPress.
