Eastbourne and it's pebble beach is a popular tourist destination in the UK. The pebble beach stretches 6.4 kilometres across the seafront of Eastbourne.

Shore Fishing Off The South Coast Eastbourne UK

Shore Fishing Off The South Coast Eastbourne UK

Shore Fishing Off The South Coast Eastbourne UK.
I happened onto a shore fishing competition while wondering along the amazing pebble beaches of Eastbourne on the south coast of England. When I saw the gentleman in the video walking down the beach with all his shore fishing gear, curiosity got the better of me. Although he was the only person I could see on the beach with shore fishing gear, he told me he was in a shore fishing competition that was going to start shortly.

Campo De Fiori Food Market Rome Italy an Entertaining Vendor


While exploring the Campo De' Fiori Food Market in Rome Italy, I came across the stall where this man was entertaining the tourists with his sales pitch. I don't know how good his food prep too is but of all the vendors at the Campo De' Fiori Food Market he was always the most crowded so I'm sure he was doing well.

Campo De' Fiori is a busy square in Rome Italy that plays host to an open air food market that is very popular among tourists and I'm sure locals as well. With it's spices and fresh produce, there's even a meat vendor where you can get a great porchetta panini, the Camp De' Fiori Food Market has something for everyone and is definitely worth a vist when you're in Rome.

Hyde Park and Hyde Park Corner, London England Traffic and Tranquility

Hyde Park and Hyde Park Corner, London England Traffic and Tranquility. Hyde Park and Hyde Park Corner, in London England, are a great example of the tranquility of a stream in an urban park, right next to the traffic of double decker buses, taxi cabs and cars at a major intersection in one of the world's largest cities. Hyde Park is one of the largest parks in London England and Hyde Park Corner is one of the busiest intersections in London. The two being right next to each other is an interesting contrast of traffic and tranquility.

Time Lapse of Waterloo Train Station and the Shard from Park Plaza Westminster Bridge Hotel London UK

These time lapse views of Waterloo Station trains and the Shard building were shot from our room at the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge Hotel in London England. I looked out the window and saw Waterloo Station and all the trains and thought I've got to try a time lapse. 
I set up the tripod and left the camera on it taking a photograph every 3 second while we got ready for our day of London exploration. Just before we left the hotel room I stopped the camera and removed it from the tripod and took it out for the day so this time lapse is made up of about an hour of shooting. It is actually all the same scene which, because of the resolution of the camera I was able to break up into tighter scene which looks like I changed composition of the shot.

GoPro Kids in the Pool Iberostar Laguna Azul Varadero Cuba

 GoPro Kids in the Pool Iberostar Laguna Azul Varadero Cuba

The Iberostar Laguna Azul Resort on Varadero Beach in Varadero Cuba has six swimming pool, six!
We were traveling with our friends and their three children and those kids were ready for a swimming pool as soon as we got to the resort, any swimming pool, it didn't matter which one of the six, as long as it had water. So when we got to our rooms, the kids got changed into the swim suits and they hopped into the nearest pool and were as happy as, well, kids in a pool.
Now I'm more of a beach guy but the pools at the Iberostar Laguna Azul are beautiful, clean, clear and inviting and I had my GoPro camera with me so who could resist capturing some footage of kids having fun, splashing around in a swimming pool.

Up Early at Iberostar Laguna Azul Varadero Cuba

Up Early at Iberostar Laguna Azul Varadero Cuba

This trip to Varadero Cuba was very much like a déjà vous. I'd been to Cuba before... I'd walked through the sand on Varadero Beach before... I'd stayed at the Iberostar Laguna Azul Resort Before... and I did it with exactly the same people before. What was going on??
Well, to make a long story short we had such a great time travelling with our friends and their kids on our first trip to the Iberostar Laguna Azul, that we wanted to take another trip with them. We search the travel and airline site and the resort that had availability that fit with everyones schedule and was price at a point that suited everyone's budget and had flight times that didn't mean arriving in the middle of the night, was, you guessed it, the Iberostar Laguna Azul.

Beach Time Lapse Iberostar Laguna Azul Varadero Beach Cuba

Beach Time Lapse Iberostar Laguna Azul Varadero Beach Cuba

I love time lapse video. I love watching time lapse videos and I love making time lapse video. I love the beach. I love relaxing on the sand on the beach and I love splashing in the waves washing up on the beach. Is it really surprising then that I would make a time lapse video while I was on a beach vacation at the Iberostar Laguana Azul resort on Varadero Beach in Cuba? Not really surprising especially considering that it was such a beautiful day, although they all were, and Varadero beach is such a beautiful beach.

I use the built in intervalometer on my Nikon D7000 to photograph this time lapse and if I remember correctly I set it to 1 frame every 3 seconds.
