The Last Train From Albuquerque



Among the most-admirable things about the television series "Breaking Bad" are the fine time-lapse videos. Such artistry! So, on my last visit to Albuquerque, I decided to emulate them and make one of my own.

This may not be final - still having technical issues - but it's still fun. Learning that video-camera autofocus isn't necessarily a good thing when it comes to time lapse.

The video starts out at LAX. I wasn't going to include it, since that's California, but just like the cameo appearance of a unicorn, the big white whale of a Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 crosses the field of view, as big as day! In Albuquerque, the railroad overpass over Central Avenue is used, just like "Breaking Bad" used it. Sandia Crest and the Sunport are used too.

Music is "The Tired Moon" by "Houses".
