Hi Dawn. Technically it’s called an intervalometer. I got mine from Ebay and if you do a search there for “shutter release” you’ll find hundreds, then it’s just a matter of finding the right one for his particular camera.

Maybe I should do a “how I did it” post?

This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I enjoy seeing websites that understand the value of providing a prime resource for free. I truly loved reading your post. Thanks!

Thanks for the great read, even if it did take quite a long time to finish reading. (English is not my mother tongue) May I ask where you got your sources from? Many thanks!

Comment on Doesn’t get any fresher than this by Denis Backhouse

Hi, This is Denis, Greg’s host (along with my wife) at the Bay View Guesthouse in Stanley.

We’re flattered, and grateful for his kind words. And Yes, Stanley IS just that sort of country town where folk don’t have to lock their doors!

For anybody who was intrigued by Greg’s rock blasting snippet from our “Guide to Stanley”, the entire Guide is free to download from our website http://www.bayviewguesthouse.com

Every guest gets a complimentary hard copy in their room, to take with them as they wander around our little town, and to keep as a reminder of their stay with us.

And Hey! … Greg’s a softie! It wasn’t really cold today at all. Min. tonight will be around 10 degrees C., and up to 14 – 15 tomorrow. There’s a cool Northerly blowing at present, which introduces a bit of wind-chill. That’ll be what he felt.

He was also right about Stanley wanting to be an island, in fact at high tides (like now) the East and West Inlets join in a culvert under the road, and technically we become an island. But most importantly, the surrounding water never drops much below 10 – 11 degrees C. and so acts as a buffer, insulating Stanley from extreme cold.

Our old gardener, who has lived all his 67 years in town has only seen snow here twice, only light flurries, and only ever a couple of hard frosts. Even a “frosty” morning just looks like someone has dusted the yard with talc., and its gone by morning tea time.

Forest (used to be “Stanley forest”) just 7km. inland, however gets hard frost, and black ice on the roads in shady patches.

Hope you enjoy our “Guide”, and maybe we can host you in Stanley one day?

Cheers,

Denis & Caroline
