Slo-Motion


"Overcast at eye level. Motor won't start. Or at least not keep idling. Turn on the radio and hope someone is both alive and awake at the other end. Fat chance."

"Dog days of summer? I remember the speed was awesome. Just a few years later I got the thrill of planing with just 7 hp. Something just right. Much later I discovered just how timeless the quest for efficiency was.

"Been that way for most of recorded history but barely noticed by the masses. Because it was a 'detail' about nature?"

"Lower frame rate. Leave the shutter open until the next, integrate the images ..."

Timeless more easily observed at the low frequencies.
