This clip has been making the rounds on the Internet, so odds are you’ve seen it. If you haven’t, you should watch it, preferably in HD at Vimeo. At the very least, click the title of this post to see it full size. :)

The premise is simple: Matthew Harding took a trip to 42 countries to film short clips of him doing a silly dance, sometimes alone, sometimes with lots of local folks, often in beautiful locations. The result is this 4:28 video.

I’m proud to share the fact that this guy is from Connecticut. They don’t call us nutmeggers for nothing.

Update: The song is (called Praan) is available at Amazon’s MP3 store. The web site for the project is, appropriately, wherethehellismatt.com, where there are more videos and maps.

My wedding was this past weekend, yesterday to be precise, and I have a collection of photos up on Flickr. I don’t have pictures from every event. It’s hard to be the photographer when you’re also the host. I have more photos coming in from friends and family, including the two below from my cousin. He took some phenomenal pictures, by the way, and I’m hoping to link to all of them soon.

I’ll keep this post updated with as many links as I get sent with photos from my wedding. Enjoy!

Clicking any of the sample images will show you a large image (1600×1065, about 400K).

I’ll keep adding links and we’ll be writing more about the whole wedding later.

So much stress now that we’re within 72 hours of the big day. Details everywhere left to get tied up, but we’re also trying to entertain all the guests every day up until the wedding. It’s been a chore to say the least, especially since Heidi and I both are the hands on type that try to minimize how much we ask of others. We’re quickly learning that delegation is as (or even more) important for weddings as it is in our jobs. It is, pretty much, the only way to keep sane.

It hasn’t been too bad, though. Especially when our days are filled with hikes or bike rides that lead to gorgeous views like this:

There is so much beauty in this one park that it’s more satisfying than Zion or anything else out there. There’s something to be said for a park that can be explored on foot, on bicycles, and via horses.

A selection of pictures from the first half of the wedding week is up at my Flickr account.

There’s an interesting bit of reporting over at TPM. It’s not clear if this means anything, but a private photo studio that does the photo shoots for a lot of Republican events deleted all the photos in their archive with Bush and Abramoff together. They keep the photos they take and resell them along with rights to publish, etc. Thus they have them all cataloged and available. TPM called the studio as part of their research into what kind of relationship Bush and Abramoff had. Read the story, it’s hard to believe why the studio would do this on their own… The existence of these photos aren’t secret.

I put up some selected photos from our trip to Acadia National Park. These are just some of my favorite shots from the trip, including this very cool shot of the campfire.

Here is the whole set.

If you’re looking at the night sky photos, you might want to go ahead and check out the other sizes. Click on the photos then click the “all sizes” button at the top. Look at the original size. It will take some time to download, but you’ll get a better idea of why the sky was worth taking several photos.
