Ashes, Snow, and YouTube

Assignment #20 You too can YouTube

Many of us in the Libraries Learning 2.0 have already embedded a YouTube video, and, have favorites as evidenced by our OULibrarieslearn Wiki. However, in order to complete this assignment, I feel I must suffer the hardship of going back the well and find another video to add here. :)

It is extremely easy to to embed or link to individual YouTube videos, and much interesting is there. But of course one must filter judiciously. I would like to see the OU Libraries add more content.

Below is a presentation from the TED conference about the Ashes and Snow visual art project by wildlife photographer Gregory Colbert. The video is long but very cool. Still images and other moving images can also be seen on the Ashes and Snow Web site. Mr. Colbert reminds us during the TED talk that none of his images are altered--they are what he saw through the camera.
