- Paul & the Sony α7C II go to SEA LIFE London Aquarium
I was going to do a little Vlog about this trip, but it wound up being impractical to do much vlogging while walking around the SEA LIFE London Aquarium, so I just focused on doing what I was really here to do: testing out my new Sony α7C II. So this is just a simple little test video, demonstrating the quality of footage I was able to capture of all the cool fish and other aquatic critters to be found at the Wonder Under London. I also took this as an opportunity to experiment with migrating my finishing workflow to Final Cut Pro from LumaFusion and see how the grading of the footage and any additional stabilisation it could add in post would come out and with moving to a 60fps master from 30fps. So this one is primarily of interest to me, but it’s here for anyone to take a look and see what these tools are capable of even while still getting up to speed. - I can’t believe this fancy Tokyo Hotel actually let me stay there
The Parks for the Thirty-Fourth – Tokyo Drift hits the rails one more time as I make my way back to Tokyo from Osaka on the Shinkansen, with another obligatory Ekiben on the way! Once back in Tokyo, I checked in to my third hotel of the trip and by far the fanciest – much fancier than I had realised it was when I booked it: The Tokyo East Side Hotel Kaie. For not much more per night than I had spent on the other hotels, this one really blew me away with the size and quality of the rooms and how plush and well appointed eve the common areas such as the lobby are. I managed to drag myself away for a brief trip to Kasai Rinkai Park and up yet another observation Ferris Wheel, the Diamond and Flower Ferris Wheel, before retiring to my spacious and stylish hotel room for a dinner of Konbini snacks and treats from Family Mart – including my first ever Curry Pan! - I went to Chessington Winter’s Tail…Oh no, I didn’t!
Time for a bit more UK Theme Park Christmas action with my visit to Chessington World of Adventures’ Winter’s Tail event, part of my efforts to get up to speed with my new Sony Alpha 7C Mark II. This trip included riding Mandrill Mayhem once again, seasonal dining with the Turkey Christmas Dinner Loaded Fries & Christmas Tree Ice Cream, a trip to see animals including the beloved penguins as well as A OWL & a visit to the Sea Life Aquarium, music from the JIngle Voices carol singing show and entertainment on stage with the Chessington World of Adventures panto Jack & the Beanstalk.
