I haven't viewed it yet, but what a great idea Brian. I'm downloading it now. I'm sure it will be stunning as always, but better on the plasma tv. Thanks for all of your great work Philip.

Wow, I'm thirsty...

Great edit to music.

I will have a beer now.

Spectacular location.
What colours and textures.

Wow Philip -- that was truly fantastic.

I love the clarity of the images; the limited depth of field where you applied it; the wonderful points of view that you chose; the simplicity of the soundtrack; and the absolute elegance of the editing ...

Bravo!

Another excellent video, Philip!! I like the way you captured so many others with cameras in action.

4 Stars! Outstanding!

nice - so what's the rule on this site with using copyrighted music?

another excellent one!
have you gone to the china date ranch?
go have a date shake. they're pretty good!

quality stuff, good job

Smooth!

Hi Philip, I wanted to know if you could tell me the name of the Nine Inch Nails track that you used in this video. Thank you for your time!

very nice! have you been to the salton sea? it has the same type of feel...

Thanks for a great film Phil!

you have captured my childhood trips to death valley perfectly... i thank you for that.

Did you shoot at noon? The sun is extremely powerful. I was just wondering if the light is more warm and mellow at around five. Like in redrock canyon, where you have much gentler hues in the late afternoon.
Death Valley must be really harsh. Good thing the LEX didn't melt.

Can I ask what type of lens you used. I ask because I cannot figure out how you have the extra wide srceen look even though you rendered at 1920X1080.

I have to crop my 1920X1080 video to 1920X780 to get the same look.

But Im only using a sony SR12 consumer camera.

So, how hot was it?

Wonderful as always. and it may be a minor detail but I love that you included the place names.

wait, isn't it in nevada lol

Just as I remember it... hot and dry and very beautiful. My family and I got stuck in Death Valley back in 84 when our rental car hubcaps got so hot it melted the tires onto it and gave us 4 flats.

At Some point you are looking for life in the desert and you keep taking us back to these tourists. Like astronauts on Martian soil, great love it

Hot!

Great shot of the coyote.

Beautiful work Phillip.
I just love the depth of field of the 35mm Letus

2:47 is an amazing shot!

Excellent

Phillip
thanks for all your work. I'm wating for my letus extreme to reach home, so far, I'm in CHILE, and I toke my desition thanks to your post in your web. Sorry my english is no good

did you ever see Bill Viola's film set to 'Deserts' by Edgard Varese? It's the same landscape, but I had no idea that it is now such a destination for tourists...

Too bad you weren't at Badwater Basin for sunset, the salt turns a blue/purple color. Would've looked amazing.

Absolutely beautiful imagery and well put together. You do an excellent job of creating a sense of environment here.

Good choice of music too.

Was this for the online competition Trent R. was trying to do with this new album?

Amazing video. I am impressed with the file conversion quality to be able to play here at Vimeo.com.

I am struggling converting 1920 x 1080i MP2 to Quicktime Version.

A very nice piece!

Kindest and sincerest warm regards,

Too bad you shot all of those scenes in broad day light. Zabrinskie Point is best at Sun Rise. .Imagine a time lapsed pan from the vista point.

Devil's Golf Course is amazing at sunset, especially with some cloud formations over Telescope Peak.

Titus Canyon would have been amazing to shoot on HD.

Good job otherwise. Must have been horribly hot and lugging around all that equipment.

true but had limited timed and had to be in Vegas in evening for work. Seeing it full blazing sunlight shows it at it's most inhospitable!

Just superb!

excellent work!

Very nice work! I liked the music too. I was there last year and this brought back memories.

Nice video and nice music. Superb!

Very nice, it reminds me my trip last month.
Thanks!

Spectacular film.
Good taste for the music.
Cheers from Spain! :)

hey i was wondering what kind of program do you use to edit this video?
what kind of camcorder did you use?
i really like it.

Thank you for this wonderful video!

very wonderful video..!!!

fascinating pictures! Crystal Clear! I love it!

how come when i crop my videos i put on vimeo it doesnt have HD? I use a canon hv30

I literally just add the crop plugin in premiere pro cs3 and crop it that way...i still export in 1280x720
