Fourth of July 2012 - Videos and Photos

This year for Fourth of July we had some friends over at my mother-in-law’s house to swim in her pool. Our son and my wife have been working like crazy to get the backyard looking nice for the event.
During the party I used this cheap yet VERY effective yellow waterproof case that has a plastic membrane on both sides of the iphone and sandwiches it in. Anyhow this case is pretty neat in that it has about a 1/4 inch of space to spare. After some time I thought I’d try out the iPro Lens that I reviewed for Beatweek at the beginning of this year and see if I could make the fisheye lens work for it and I did!

Most of the photos I took were either in the waterproof case with no lens or on a tripod with a lens (I used the wide angle lens when I wanted to get a wider shot, I used the fisheye for effect while in the pool with the waterproof case on)

Here is a youtube video playlist that I shot in HD, if the HD doesn’t work click the little gear and pick 720 or 1080 and it will show in HD.

I took well over 2000 pictures and cut them down to about 700 or so that I liked. I couldn’t find it in me to lose some of the cool frames from the action shots 🙂
