Thank you very much! That video is a year old and had about 800 views. In one day since putting it here it has had 300 views!

You are an impressive bunch!

UHH is about photos. Sometimes I get lucky and get a few that seem unique.

My brother hand built a replica of a 1776 British rifle. It takes about 1/10th of a second from pulling the trigger to having the ball exit the rifle. My camera takes 60 full frame photos every second. I froze the 7 frames during the shot as .jpg photos.

In my video of him shooting, the seven .jpg photos are displayed in a sequence at about 2:05 into the three and a half minute video.

This is not a video forum, but the 7 .jpg photos surprised me when I created them.

Please enjoy! http://vimeo.com/36973087

Very cool video. How calmly could a soldier load that up with a hundred colonists running toward him? Very unique way of loading. Can't say I'd be crazy about winding that screw bolt up against black powder, tho.

Well produced, edited and directed, Bill.


If you notice he was moving the breach screw very slowly so as not to build heat
