Ken Cox Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 DAVY glad to see you have came out of hibernation and your photographic juices have come to life - amazing what nature has done to the formations of rock - enough back slapping 'tho would liked to have manual control and the music could have been a little more cheerful to match the freshness of your scenes glad to see you back mateken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopernatural Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Ken,Started out just taking pictures of rock/textures.My old geology teacher would have approved.Didn’t quite float my boat though,so coupled rocks with other shots.I wanted something different for this,music wise. Granted,not everybody’s cup of tea,but it is a quirky sort of a collection.Want to keep my really nice music for a back slapping AV. You know how it is.Cheers,Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin hill Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Davy,Amazing what nature can produce along a stretch of beach. A good collection of pictures with as you say, some good textures.Agree with Ken, music in my opinion could have been a bit lively, otherwise a good AV.Thanks for sharing,Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopernatural Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Colin,The Next AV, I will play it safe and have nice music and manual control. Have to keep you guys happy.I did get the weirdest music CD ever, sent to me recently though.Will keep that one for my next hibernation.Cheers.Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trailertrash Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 As a random set of images [ which are pretty good photographically ] and some offbeat ambient music - no clever animation, special effects, soothing tinkling piano music, voice over, picture postcard images, bare naked ladies, Google, start, middle and end, story, Video etc Its not bad at all.Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fh1805 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Davy,The choice of music is always a subjective, personal decision. I didn't find that your choice detracted from the sequence in any way - but it wouldn't have been my choice. I'm not sure what my choice would have been as I don't take this kind of subject. I don't have the right kind of "seeing eye" when I'm out with my camera. I wish I did, because I just love shape and texture imagery. Thanks for sharing - and for inspiring me to keep looking until I do see.Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopernatural Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Andrew,'Not bad at all', is as good as I could hope for.If only my old Geology teacher had marked me as highly. Thanks,Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonemason Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 DavyI loved the atmosphere created by this sequence. A steady flow off textures, complimented by touches of reality, and to my ear enhanced by the music. A keeper as Ken has often said. What and by whom was the music?Geoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopernatural Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Peter,I am enjoying getting out with the camera nowadays. I too have difficulties with seeing what comes naturallyto those gifted photographers. Talking to a die hard film photographer,I could see his point about making each shot count.With digital cameras and huge capacity memory cards we can snap all day,but often just end up with a large collection of snaps.I know I do.Thanks for watching and your feedbackGeoff,It was interesting putting this AV together. Everybody knows thats were the fun bit is.I tried a couple of pieces of more traditional music,but thought this was was different enough to be 'different',but not totally out there.The music was on one of those large compilation box sets of chillout music. The artist was Paul Schutze and the track was 'Sleep 2'.Glad the sequence worked for you.Thanks for the feedback.davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithrg Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Davy, Great photos of amazing formations.Thanks for sharing, Gayland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Porter Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Hi Davy,Great shots that takes a good eye to spot and expert technique to reproduce - well done. The music was fine with me and worked well. With this type of A/V which is used as a platform to show off the photographs, I do not understand what is wrong with having KB control so we can really study the photos. If not this why such a short screen time 3-4 secs for most of the shots especially with the slow pace of the music? But thanks for sharing as I am trying to get more texture shots into my work and this is a useful inspiration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But...you took me on a trip and I did not where I was! How about some introductory text? After a while I recognized the rocks but I can not remember exactly where they are. More info in the slideshow, please. (Also, I'd prefer manual controls to be included)Thanks... Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopernatural Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Gayland,Thanks, and glad you liked the rock formations.I missed out on so much more, but next time......Hi Mick,I just get used to ticking the same tabs for each show.I do this when I turn off the navigation bar that I don't like much.Will make sure to keep KB control in future. Timing was dictated by the musicand could well have been tweaked a bit better.I think it was BB who had an excellent AV called I think, 'Natures Textiles'.Thanks for the feedback Mick.Gary,These AVs are more just for my own fun. I can understand the need for some intro text and music credits,but I chop and change so much,it might be a pain to do. I associate the text and credits with clubcompetitions, which is something that I avoid.I will do text and credits for the next one, including KB control.....promise.The photos are from Northern Ireland and mostly of the 'North Coast area' including The Giants Causeway.I only took some small part of the sights on offer there.Glad you watched and made useful comments.Thanks to you all.Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
