Meteor Shower over Kelowna

August 16th, 2010 0 Comments Meteor Shower over Kelowna

Friday night was an exceptional evening to watch the Perseid Meteor shower. I managed to capture this one after 30 minutes of trying.
I used a 20 second exposure and 5.6f 1250 ISO

This view is looking out over Okanagan Lake towards Peachland.

Online Video Will Push Internet Traffic to Quadruple by 2014

June 4th, 2010 0 Comments

Cisco Systems has predicted that Internet networking traffic will have quadrupled between 2009 and 2014 in its Annual Visual Networking Index Forecast. It also predicted that online video will be the primary driver of that growth.

Cisco’s report says that 767 exabytes of data (one exabyte is the equivalent of one billion gigabytes) will be transferred online in 2014, and that 91% of consumer traffic will be online video, which will include both traditional web video and video-on-demand provided by television providers.

There’s also a closer milestone in Cisco’s research: Online video will surpass peer-to-peer traffic (which includes file sharing services like BitTorrent and a bulk of content piracy) for the first time this year. P2P has been the largest portion of consumer online traffic for some time now, and it will continue growing — just not anywhere near as quickly as online video.

We’ve already learned from comScore’s data that web users are watching more videos for longer than they used to, but Cisco also predicts massive growth in video calling. Remember how The Jetsons promised a future in which people made phone calls with video screens? That future is gradually becoming more than just a cartoon reality.

Devices like Apple TV and those running Google TV could contribute to increased online video usage up, too.

Online Video Viewing Trends

June 4th, 2010 0 Comments Online Video Viewing Trends

According to recent research from the Pew Internet Project, 52% of the American population is watching videos online — that’s 69% of all Internet-connected American adults.

If online video watching continues at its current rate of growth, in just under 5 years, almost every American with an Internet connection (i.e., the vast majority of Americans, period) will be watching video online.

This includes video streamed from the web and downloaded video, encompassing sites such as YouTube, Vimeo, Hulu, DailyMotion and others.

Today is going to be super busy with two shoots lined up. The first one will be an interview with a company that specialises in helping troubled teens. They do an incredible job of getting kids back on the straight and narrow with renewed hope and vision.
The second will be filming in and around an orchard in the Sunny Okanagan, it doesn’t get much better than this.

Looking forward to working with my trust Canon 7D:)

Catch up with you all soon.

Filming at BC Wildlife Park

February 24th, 2010 0 Comments Filming at BC Wildlife Park

We had a wonderful time filming at the BC Wildlife Park as part of the Little Humbugs web series “Let’s Go Outside”.
It was the first time for me filming inside an enclosure with 3 very large and wild Bald Eagles. Luckily I had the wonderful keeper Isa to look after me as I poked my camera around. The birds were magnificent, as were the beautiful Burrowing Owl and the great Golden Eagle.
