d67 Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Hej / 65MB - 4'35" on Bill's Beechbrook siteHej (pronounced "hey" and meaning "hello") is the very first swedish word you hear at your arrival in Sweden... You will then hear it many times and rapidly say it yourself during your stay there.In the first part of the slideshow you will find some photos of Stockholm.In the second part there are photos of what is the second thing that will surely impress you after the "Hej" (...and the friendliness of the swedish) : the wooden houses, very often red brownish colored, with there white corners.To be honest, some shots were taken in 2 open air museums (Skansen in Stockholm and Gamla Stan in Linköping) but there 2 or 3 century houses are very close to what you find nowadays!I used the last beta version of PTE because I wanted to incorporate 2 little videos.Have funPatrickcomments welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lin Evans Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Hi Patrick,Nice! Like being there. Looks like you and Catherine had a great time on holiday. One thing you might consider is getting one of the freeware video editors which has anti-shake filtering. They greatly reduce the "bumps" caused by the road when filming through the windshield. I like the music - it was very well suited for the presentation.Best regards,Lin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colin hill Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Patrick,Very nicely done. I loved the effects you put in the show. As Lin mentioned, the music was well suited.All in all a good show.Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d67 Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 LinI didn't know that it was possible to reduce the video "bumps" during post proccessing. I will give it a try.The weather was absolutely extraordinary for the whole week: no clouds and very "hot" day temperatures (15°C) for that region... very uncommon for mid April !BernardI don't know why you have such an error message. I didn't make special things with this slideshow apart incorporating videos (mp4) and sound (ogg).KenI "inherited" my son's PC as he migrated to a Mac ColinThank you for your commentPatrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d67 Posted May 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Sorry for the late answer ... I had to cope with a trojan horse on my PCThank you Charlie for your commentHej och tack.Snygga färggranna bilder av hög kvalitet.Trevligt att höra lite svenska här på forumet...JanI had a problem with the second music extract. How to be sure with a so distant language for me to be sure the text is not too ...hot! For example, for the title, the web translation robot gives "the tongue of love"... I suppose that "the language of love" is probably more correct;Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delicate Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Hi PatricI think you can feel really safe!I did check the lyrics for "Kärlekens tunga", and yes, the most hottest words in that song is really "the tongue of love"..., but in the meening "Speek to me, Let me hear, The tongue of love, Say you love me, I will never forget you..."I suppose you did think that the singer did look for her true love among the nice countryside houses at south east Sweden...Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue skye all the stay apart one day !Temperatures were apparently (min 4°C to 16°C maxi) high as we often were the sole guests in the restaurants to eat inside while the locals all sat on the terrace tables (with blankets in the evening) The following week there was a day with 2 hours of falling snow that melt in one hourPatrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
