The Back Yard
It’s in the Can
As they say in the movie biz, it’s in the can. We shot the claypit suspension movie today. The shoot was originally planned for Friday, but the weather was very nice today (Thursday) and the forecast for Friday was deteriorating. Most everything went to plan. We set up the suspension tripod, two cameras, and a … Continue reading
Drought update
My internet service has finally come back on-line, after Hurricane Irene. I’m not sure just how much rain I got here, but it rained for over 24 hours. Here is a photo of the pond, after the hurricane … I’ve got a lot of catching up to do, as I lost access to the Internet … Continue reading
Drought update
I know most of you are here for my mud exploits, so I’ll keep this short. Although there has been some heavy rain in the area, my yard has only received a half-dozen or so brief showers that have served to keep the grass from dying, but that’s about all. Here is a photo of … Continue reading
The drought
Well, drought conditions have caused the level of my pond to drop to the point where there is very little water left. I decided to take advantage of the low water level to clean out some of the debris at the bottom of the pond, and also to dig a little deeper in hopes of … Continue reading

These still frames were taken from the original video that I shot while working on the claypit. The video was shot on my JVC GZ-HM1 at 1920×1080 (60 fields/second).
Claypit maintenance
In preparation for an upcoming shoot, I have been working to make the claypit a bit smaller and deeper, and to work in some sand, to take away some of the clay’s “gloopiness”. I don’t know how else to describe it. The clay coats everything and seems to repel water so that it is always … Continue reading
Yard work
The weather was so nice today, it’s a shame I didn’t get muddy. There was just too much to be done today. I had office work, yard work, and I needed to make bread while the sun was still shining, since I use a SunOven to bake my bread. Heather dropped by for a few … Continue reading
