A Perfect Day for the Grand Canyon Tour!

Samsung Electronics has provided the author of this article with the mentioned digital imaging device.

The Grand Canyon…I had heard about this place more than a thousand times!

Two weeks ago, I FINALLY saw the Grand Canyon!

It was a bright and perfect day for my tour. I left the hotel and headed to the Grand Canyon Airport around 10 A.M.

We took this cute tour bus. It was easy for the general public to see where we were headed.

People were waiting for the helicopters and the airplanes. Our airplane was a bit late, so we had to wait about an hour.

I was already tired even before the tour started when I finally boarded this airplane; however, I gave no complaints once I saw the view through the airplane window. I was flying over the Colorado River and the Hoover Dam!

After the one hour flight, the airplane landed at the Grand Canyon National Park Airport. The airport was much colder than I thought; it felt close to freezing! I regretted not carrying my thick jacket.

We started the bus tour in the park. The real Grand Canyon tour has started.

These shots are from Mather Point which is the most popular vantage point of the Grand Canyon. The sky was so blue and the Grand Canyon made my jaw drop in awe! I felt like I was standing at the edge of the earth! My first impression of the Grand Canyon was perfect for me. :)

Bright Angel Lodge, a series of stone and wood buildings along the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, was the second point we visited. Fortunately, we arrived just before sunset.

On the way back to the Grand Canyon Airport, I was sleeping on the plane but I could imagine how beautiful the night view must have been.

OK Go’s Last Leaf and Your Toast

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd has announced the release of the music video for indie band OK Go’s latest song “Last Leaf.” The video was filmed using Samsung’s new NX100 camera, the perfect tool to take great, creative images and film anywhere, anytime, and is available to view today at www.cre8yourworld.com.

Although it has been only three days since the music video released, the official music video has been viewed around 85,000 times on their Myspace page. In addition, the leading music and tech magazines such as Billboard, Mashable and Technolog reported the release of the music video of OK Go’s “Last Leaf”

The “Last Leaf” video was made using thousands of photographs taken witfh the Samsung NX100, woven together to create a stop motion animation clip, showing the technical capabilities and creative versatility of the NX100. The images were combined with hand-drawn animations by the band themselves along with award-winning animator Geoff McFettridge to create a unique music video. The collaboration marks a new artistic direction for OK Go, whose previous videos have been composed of one-take live-action clips.

You may feel hungry when you see the music video made with full of toast. Then make your friends hungry too! You can make your own toast on NX100 Global Campaign site: www.cre8yourworld.com. Using a profile picture, the toaster engraves the photo on the toast like in the “Last Leaf” video, and the toast can be shared on Facebook. Click here and share your toast!
