Really gorgeous work. Its sort of like Baraka or Koyaanisqatsi, sans the Phillip Glass soundtrack, and focused on the American Southwest.

My good friend Tom just released more footage from his film, TimeScapes. I don’t even know how to describe this stuff, just watch it. It’s amazingly beautiful and insane. 

Here’s Tom’s description of his video:

This is production footage from my forthcoming debut film, “TimeScapes,” a portrait of the American Southwest. This video was filmed and edited at 4K (4069x2304) resolution, four times greater than regular 1080p HD. A 4K DCP file is available upon request. Shot on Red Epic and Canon RAW still cameras.

Inspired by my colleague Amadou’s recent articles on home printing, a few days ago I decided to take a long-overdue look through the pictures stored on my server, with the aim of picking out a few shots that might be worthy of display. Given that my home server holds almost a decades’ worth of photographs, that was never going to be a quick or easy task.
As I cursed my younger self for shooting everything - and I mean EVERYTHING - in Raw+JPEG mode (one day Photoshop will finish building the thumbnails… one day…) I steeled myself and decided that I had to start somewhere, and that I may as well start at the beginning of the Alphabet, in the ‘A’ folder. Alongside an array of sub-folders with such teasingly vague names as ‘AA’, ‘April’, and the embarassingly-misnamed ‘Art’, my eye fell gratefully on one which I knew contained some pictures that were worth working on.
