The first thing you’ll notice is that it covers a lot more ground than my previous commute. And a bridge. Compressed to 38 seconds, this works out to about 1,700 miles per hour. If only it were possible to get to the office this fast!

Here’s a shot of the high-tech rig I used to shoot this. One frame every two seconds.

The trip took 1904 seconds this Sunday morning.
