14:30 What's Your Favorite Snowflake?
Alright, I've made a few snowflake photography videos (see here ua-cam.com/video/uQeY-19SmIY/v-deo.html , here ua-cam.com/video/_9vjA3Dpggg/v-deo.html , and here ua-cam.com/video/TjX3BoitneA/v-deo.html ) but people are ALWAYS surprised when I show them how simple the setup for shooting these is. You don't need expensive stuff to get amazing results! The gear I used here:
Canon T2i (garage sale purchase, $10)
Canon 18-55mm kit lens (same garage sale)
58mm reversing ring ($10 on ebay)
Macro focusing rails ($25 on amazon)
Induro CT414 tripod ($300 used, worth every penny on every shoot)
Buckets, glass, headlamp, all from around the house.
As for the editing, as you can see, it's only a few simple steps! Clean it up, invert the color, colorize, and save. I also recently purchased a macro lens for my cell phone, so let me know in the comments if you'd like to see me shoot a video using that gadget! We're in the dead of winter here in South Dakota, so we've gotta make the most of it :)

Pulling a '68 CHARGER from the WEEDS

"So much torque, the chassis TWISTED coming off the line." Yes, this is primarily a channel about weather and nature. But recently, our friend Sean bought his dream car, a '68 Charger! He's already begun piecing it back together, an undertaking that I'd be nowhere near ambitious enough for. I know he's already got the doors and hood back on, and has begun some work on the paint. Updates to come!

    Amazing! @16:20 is my favorite. When I take snowflake pictures I sometimes use a colored light above to give it colored highlights as well as using your trick to get bottom illumination. Also, you can probably change the background color in lightroom to give some variety. I like a blue or purple background.

    Oh my goodness, I did this very thing once back in 2005... I had a 1969 charger pulled from a farmer's field after who knows how long it needed everything and by the time I was done I think I spent something between 60 and 70,000... Granted it was very nice when it was done but I sold it too early and only got 45,000... If I held on to it long enough obviously it would be worth 80 or 90,000 today... That I have this horrible reputation of bailing out on finished projects before the value comes back.

I remember my neighbor when I was a kid had a copper colored scout and we used to love hopping in that thing and bouncing around all over the place... I remember he used to take that scout hunting along with his two Brittany spaniels. As 5-year-olds we just like getting in the back and giggling when it bounced around over ruts and bumps... The sad thing is I do actually still have a shop, and I could do all of the work myself, my dad is there and would help me anytime I want, but I'm working so much at three different businesses that I've started that my time is so limited I have no time to do anything for myself these days. But I figure as long as I'm making good money at my medical practices I could just pay somebody to do what I want that way they earn a good living and I get the thing I wanted without having to break my fingernails in the process...

      Will have to check with Sean, I know the engine it came with was locked. Came with am RT grill but it's not an RT based on the VIN.

      Yes it's a 440, had a valve inside of a piston in one cylinder😅 the rest of the cylinders are so rusted solid you can't tell the difference between looking at the piston and cylinder wall.

    The way I’ve gone about doing these major restorations is to not look at all the work that needs to be done, just focus on a certain area of the car, say the trunk or engine bay, front chassis and finish one of those and move on to the next, hopefully this will help and good luck with your project!

      Great way to look at it! Step at a time makes it less overwhelming. One thing is for sure though, even if it's not a show car, Sean will do it right!

    its a real shame to see that side crunched like that and the roof dented as bad as it is considering how solid the car is still plenty there to rebuild it with most original sheet metal at least body wise

      I know haha both fenders being straight would have been amazing. I'll try to get more details on the history of this one for the next video :)

    I am old enough to remember when the 2nd Gen Charger first came out. The first time I ever saw one was in 1968. I was standing at a cross walk with my Schwinn Stingray when somebody pulled up to the stop sign with a brand new Dodge Charger straight off the lot. I knew right then that car would be the best looking car ever made in U.S.A history. In the late 70's and early 80"s I made three attempts to buy a 2nd Gen Charger, but they all fell through. Back then you could buy a complete running 2nd Gen Charger for less that $1000.

      I think we all wish we had a time machine for those deals, heck even just to witness those rolling the streets new must have been amazing. Thanks for sharing and watching!
