Made with extremely short clips from every day of a two-month trip in Asia, the 'One Minute Vacation' by Kevin Kelly is a concise capture of his time spent in the East.

Capturing quick glimpses of the countries he visited, this is a clip with little information but plenty of intrigue.
Sure to help Kelly remember his vacation with concise clarity while inspiring others to take part in similar projects, this is an offbeat and welcomed change of pace from tourist photos.
