Time-Lapse Videos : These Time Lapse videos were shot using Canon 20D and 5D digital SLR cameras. The camera is set on a tripod and tripped automatically at various intervals. The clouds video, for instance, was shot at 1 frame each minute, and the Las Vegas videos were shot at 1 frame per second. They are then played back at 15 frames per second, which compresses the time of the event, making the video seem to be a "fast motion" depiction. These are low-resolution copies of the original videos, which are of much higher quality, but which would take forever to download! Write to me if you are intersted in the full-resolution videos.

Clark Mansion Fire, 6-25-2010 : The Clark Mansion was a Clarkdale landmark and icon. It was built in the 1930's by William T. Clark, Grandson of Clarkdale's founder. The building had been unoccupied for some time and was repeatedly vandalized. The fire started sometime before 5am on June 25th, 2010, and completely destroyed the building. A bit of Clarkdale's soul went with it.

Howard Clark Negatives : These photographs were taken by my Grandfather, Howard Clark, while he was a Presbyterian missionary to the Navajos on their reservation at Window Rock, Arizona. The negatives are 3¼ X 5½, and they were copied by sandwiching them between glass plates and illuminated from behind by a diffused ring flash and photographed using a Canon 5D and Canon 100mm macro lens. The resulting images were inverted and the levels adjusted in Photoshop CS3 and Adobe Lightroom. Most of these shots seem to have been taken around 1913, as you can see in image of the Navajo man seated at a desk in front of the Flagstaff, Arizona Citizen's Bank calendar for January, 1913. That shot, when seen at full resolution (I posted here only 800-pixel images), shows a whole range of cultural and temporal icons - the ink well, oil lamp, binoculars, pen, postage scale, etc. The changes from that photograph's time to the present span only one long-lived person's lifetime! These shots are all copyrighted 2008 to Betty Von Gausig, my mother and Howard Clark's daughter.
