I've been doing this to myself since I can remember, really, since I can remember, and it always seems to work out because I micro manage the preparation, but it's no easier on my nervous system. I'm doing my first in a series of video interviews for several clients, tomorrow I'll be shooting an interview with Roger Staubach (see what I mean, no point in starting off with Chandler or someone for practice, sheesh!) My mind goes into auto pilot whenever I have something new like this and in the background it is constantly running scenarios, technical tutorials, and what if's.
I'm sure it will go well, but I'll never know why I always jump into the abyss, when all I wanted to do is learn to dog paddle........... :
And before Anwar gets off work... better find that TOPP Now are you doing the interview questions as well? That would give me the upset stomach for sure....

Holy Cow Steven! That sky alone was a subject that could've kept you busy until nightfall, just incredible!
Thanks Jim,
The funny thing is, I was shooting the clouds. Back in 2012 I lived downtown Detroit and my apartment had a great view. Summertime thunderstorm were building off in the distance. So, I slapped on my 400mm F/5.6L to my old 7D and started shooting. A few frames into it, here comes a Delta A330 heading to DTW. Click, click, click. Spotting from my apartment, 31 floors up!
The video shoot went well, long day but it was with great people and a foundation whose mission is to help Veterans secure private sector jobs that take advantage of what they learned during their service to our country, pretty outstanding goal. Everything went off without a hitch, thankfully, and I'm backing up 80GB of 4K footage as we speak. All my worry and prep went to good use, I was prepared for everything that popped up. Our footage from today looks very good, but I now know how to make it even more outstanding in the future, and I'm excited about that!
There's a 4:30 wake up call in my future and tomorrow looks like it will wrap up about 10:30pm out in the JRB/Carswell area of Fort Worth, so I had better sign off. Have a great day tomorrow, we'll talk soon!
We met at last years Air Tattoo - I think on the Saturday. I'm going this year but not in FRIAT. I'm there Friday to Monday.
I've been keeping an eye on your wonderful work - Very impressive particularly the night shots!
Been rather busy lately, just now have time to catch up.
Went up to the NYC area and photographed this Falcon 2000 at Teterboro, NJ. The jet is based in Belgium and they are getting an 8X, so they need to sell this one, first.
I guess this shouldn't be much of a surprise, but most of us will learn a new word..................
"Increasing connectivity and other factors mean that roughly 600 zettabytes of new data is created each year (that is 600 trillion gigabytes), which is about 200% more traffic than current data centers can handle. To keep pace with the growth of data, the industry is going to have to build about 4,000 new facilities."
Yup, an F5D-1 according to NASA. The plane no longer resides next to the other aircraft there though. Not sure if I got a shot of just the Gemini capsule, there were several people there that looked at everything, and we were heading north another hour after that. I'll look though

The museums webpage doesn't give a "dash number", but according to Wikipedia it is the F5D-1 flown by Neil Armstrong during the X-20 research program.
The museums website shows that they have a Gemini capsule on display. I'd love to see photos of that (if requests are being taken).
