Tiger shark snipped from 2006 with Alex Mustard and Laz Ruda

16 March 2013 - 10:07 PM

I was digging through some footage today and found this old clip of a tiger shark with Alex Mustard and Laz Ruda. Fun!

 

 

I haven't been on a proper shark dive in way too long.

Timelapse thunderstorms at Misool Eco Resort

20 February 2013 - 01:44 AM

I'm finally getting around to posting this. During the 2010 Wetpixel Ultimate Indonesia expedition, we spent 12 days at Misool Eco Resort. Each evening, thunderstorms would rage off in the distance as the sun went down. Don Kehoe and I would sit out on the deck every night with cameras on tripods, taking timelapse frames. It was really incredible.

 

Cameras have gotten a lot better since then. With a 7D and 1Ds Mark II, it was actually quite difficult to get clean individual frames. I haven't done much cleanup, here—I need to go through and get rid of the stuck pixels.

Hello, everyone. This was sort of working before, but we are now officially supporting Tapatalk, the iOS and Android forum app. The app is $2.99 and can be found in the App Store / Google Play / Amazon Kindle store, and you can use it to browse the Wetpixel forums (and many other forums) directly from the app on your mobile devices.


Embedding media on the new Wetpixel

19 February 2013 - 09:50 AM

Hello, everyone. The new Wetpixel embeds videos and pictures very differently than does the old one. There is no more need to use bbcode (bbcode for images will still work, but bbcode for video embeds will no longer work). To embed, just paste the URL into the body. We currently support:

  • jpg
  • gif
  • png
  • YouTube
  • Google Video
  • MySpace Video
  • GameTrailers
  • Flickr Image Set
  • MP3
  • Vimeo
  • Lytro living pictures
  • Flickr Video (removed 2/25/13)
  • Windows Media Player (hosted .wmv files)  

I'd love to support Flickr images, as well, but their embeds are a little more complicated. I have to give it another try.

 

Any other embed desires?
