Visually documenting the process of farming

I am still trying to figure out the best ways to visually document our process of organic farming. I have taken over a thousand pictures since our farming journey began. I have made several videos walking around the farm and narrating a tour of what was growing and what we had done; however, I haven't really been able to capture the "process" of farming until now.

I have finally found a way to show "how farming is done." I am playing around with video and play back speeds in Windows Live Movie Maker. I created two videos - one of Damian and I "tilling it up" and another of me planting 1000 carrot seeds in about 2 minutes!! In real time, both of these videos took about 45 minutes to record, but altering the play back speeds shorten the videos to about 3 minutes and make us seem like amazingly fast farmers.

One more thing... I want to give credit to Damian for the creative music selection for these videos. :) Enjoy!
