The trip on the train (The Ghan) across the desert was a 24-hour experience that we won't forget. Both the sunset and the sunrise were extremely beautiful, and the train was really in the middle of nowhere when crossing the vast outback. Ayers Rock is the name of the area that beholds the famous Uluru. However, Alice Springs is the only city in the red center, and it is about 500km away from Ayers Rock, so Marc and I took a flight there. But I will tell a little bit before that.. http://www.claudiocamacho.org/?id=201007280947 http://www.claudiocamacho.org/?id=201007280947 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 9:48:00 +0300 Time-lapses are a photographic and cinematographic technique to compose a video out of a sequence of concurrent photographs. Typically, these images are taken at regular intervals of time, spacing them in a way that the video reflects the pass of time. This technique is sometimes referred to as low-speed photography, and it can tell a relatively long story in a short clip. After having read a little bit about this technique, and even taking into account that I didn't have the proper equipment, I decided to practice this with an exercise.. http://www.claudiocamacho.org/?id=201007240948 http://www.claudiocamacho.org/?id=201007240948 Thu, 22 Jul 2010 16:55:00 +0300 It was Friday morning when we arrived to Darwin, the northern-most city of Australia. Sanna and Mervi (the two Finnish girls that we met in Cairns and who were traveling with us on the same plane) had their hostel on the same street as ours, and so we all took the shuttle from the airport to the hostels. We didn't know that it was going to by goodbye (or a least a see you later back in Finland) when we split to each of our hostels. http://www.claudiocamacho.org/?id=201007221655 http://www.claudiocamacho.org/?id=201007221655
