Which state is this in?

[GeoffBlackmore]

@McAusten - NZ

[McAusten]

@GeoffBlackmore - OK so this is NOT in Australia, then?

[GeoffBlackmore]

@McAusten - That's correct, New Zealand is not part of Australia.

Used to love walking past this sort of view in Napier every morning on the way to school

SWEET!

Awesome use of the tripod, Geoff! Your shot composition is great, too. I think you pulled back at just the right time. The train hadn't shrunk away significantly and we also get a view of the environment it was in, which is a significant part of the shot.

Do you have a professional video camera? I've been watching your clips for quite a while now and your camera along with your cinematography is of an awesome standard. I'd imagine looking at a camera similar to yours when mine carks it.

Camera was sitting on a fence post :)

It's actually just the movie mode on my still camera rather than a video camera, so it's pretty good for what it is.

Thanks for commenting :)

Nice shot!

I like this place (C-track) and zooming.

Hey Geoff

Great job mate. The conditions didn't look all that favorable.

Thanks, but I think I pulled back a bit too early. Should have let the front of the train completely fill the screen.

Awesome video 5*****

The way you shot the beginning of this is COOL! It was like the train was about to come right out of the screen before you pulled away a bit.
