Other Stuff ::: The Himalayas

We think we have a pretty cool team here at We Live Soccer, in our humble opinion of course.  It’s a small team, working our a$$’s off trying to grow and bring you the best coverage of the game here in North America. 

That being said, our team likes to spread its wings and continue to get better at what they do, so that when doing what we do for WLS, it rocks!!  Did that make sense?  To put it another way… we do other stuff too.

Some “other stuff” Elia Saikaly, our Director of Photography , did recently was only spend a couple of months in the Himalayas, climbing to some insane height above sea level, braving substandard amounts of oxygen… all to get some pretty pictures.  And these “pretty picture” skills are what he brings to We Live Soccer.  I’m just sayin’… we’re all lucky to have these kind of skills on board!!

In reality, Elia was doing this in support of Finding Life and the great work they do.  You can read his account of the adventure on the Finding Life blog: bit.ly/prytXB  In the meantime, watch the video and jump over to his Vimeo page to read up on the tech side of the shoot if you be so inclined.

If you dig timelapse photography then you will love this.
