Evanston: penultimate




A year ago today GANNET and I were fifty miles south of San Diego.  29,950 miles behind us.  At dawn I thought we might get in before sunset, but the wind weakened and we did not complete the voyage until the following morning.

I recorded the two parts of ‘The End of Being’ that day.  The above is a frame taken from one of them.  I just watched the two videos.  If you haven’t seen them or if you have forgotten them, I like to believe they are worth eight minutes of your time and, if you will permit a teaser, they will prepare you for tomorrow’s:  Dying First Annual Report.

Part 1 was shot with my Nikon AW1.  When its battery died, I shot Part 2 with a GoPro Hero 5 Black.  I was initially surprised by how superior the quality of the GoPro.
